Frank Sinatra- I've Got You Under My Skin
I said to myself this affair, never will go so well. I've tried to resist, but baby, I know so well: I've got you under my skin.
Danny: What are you wearing?
CJ: Your paper wants to know what I'm wearing?
Danny: Not my paper. That was just for me.
. . .
CJ: When you flirt with me, are you doing it to get a story?
Danny: No.
CJ: Why are you doing it?
Danny: To flirt with you.
The Kooks- She Moves In Her Own Way
You don't pull my strings, 'cause I'm a better man, moving on to better things: I love her because she moves in her own way
CJ: My secret service codename is flamingo.
Danny: Nice bird.
CJ: Go away.
Danny: Okay.
Good Charlotte- Wondering
If you want me to wait, I will wait for you; if you tell me to stay, I will stay right through, if you don't want to say anything at all, I'm happy wondering.
C.J. You're a reporter. I'm the Press Secretary. It's an unavoidable conflict of interest. It would hurt my reputation. It would hurt your reputation. Your editors would obviously...
Danny: C.J.?
C.J.: Yeah?
Danny: What are you doing?
C.J.: I'm reading you my list.
...
Danny: I'm gonna ignore your list 'cause I think it's ridiculous. Also 'cause I got a crush on you.
Elvis Costello- She
She may be the reason I survive, the why and wherefore I'm alive, the one I'll care for through the rough and ready years... and when she goes, I've got to be, the meaning of my life is she.
C.J. I thought what I'd do is kiss you, you know, on the mouth, then I'd just get past it...I'd just get past it, and I'll be able to give my work the kind of concentration it really deserves.
DANNY: Okay.
C.J.: How's right here?
DANNY: That's fine.
C.J.: Be careful of the fish.
DANNY: Sure
C.J.: No, I'm saying cause if you rock against the...
Danny grabs C.J. and kisses her.
DANNY: How's that?
C.J.: Oh, good.
DANNY: Past it?
...
Danny: I have no problem with a reporter dating the Press Secretary.
C.J.: Well, I have a problem.
The Magnetic Fields- Washington, DC
Washington, DC, it's paradise for me! It's not a famous name on a golden plaque that makes me ride that railroad track- it's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back!
Santa: Have you been a good girl?
CJ: I've been bad, I've been very bad.
Santa: Even better!
...
Santa grabs CJ and kisses her.
CJ: Danny?!
Danny: What's going on?
Van Morrison- Someone Like You
I've been all around the world, marching to the beat of a different drum. But just lately I have realized: Baby, the best is yet to come.
Bartlet: Abbey wants a picture of the baby.
Danny: I thought we e-mailed you one.
Bartlet: Something she can tape to the fridge.
Ben Folds- The Luckiest
I don't get many things right the first time, in fact, I am told that a lot. Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls, brought me here.
DANNY: Uh, I'm flying a little blind here. I'm halfway through my life and I'm never quite sure if I'm doing anything right until I'm completely done doing it wrong. ... Uh, we're both about to fall of a cliff and I don't know what I'm going to do with the rest of my life except I know what I don't want to do. And on Inauguration Day you're going to be released from that glorious prison on Pennsylvania Avenue... So, if I'm going to jump off the cliff and you're going to get pushed off the cliff, why don't we hold hands on the way down?
The Postal Service- The District Sleeps Alone Tonight
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering, what's buried underneath where I am...you seem so out of context in this gaudy apartment complex.
CJ: Well, you know, when I came over, and it was late, and we didn't really talk, we just... did that make you feel bad?
Danny: Bad in what...?
CJ: You know... used.
Danny: For my body?
CJ: Something like that.
Danny: I'll work through it.
The Goo Goo Dolls: Iris
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be, and I don't want to go home right now. And all I can taste is this moment, and all I can breathe is your life. And sooner or later it's over- I just don't want to miss you tonight.
CJ: everyone keeps thinking i have something to say, and I really don't.
Danny: Don't worry about it.
...
CJ: I know we have a lot to talk about and I don't want to leap-frog any of it, but it was kind of wonderful to just-
Danny: ... not talk.
CJ: Not even a little!
Danny: You want to it again tonight, don't you?
CJ: I really do.
Danny: I'll leave the door open.
Bright Eyes- First Day Of My Life
And so I thought I’d let you know that these things take forever, I especially am slow. But I realize that I need you, and I wondered if I could come home.
CJ: I'm good at my job, Danny, I'm good at working, I'm not good at this!
Danny: You're right, you suck at it. You're gonna need a tremendous amount of training.
CJ: You're not gonna-
Danny: I am, actually!
CJ: Train me?!
Danny: Well, we'll call it something else, that sounds bad. You're gonna get good at it. We're gonna get good at new things. You didn't miss it.
Marc Cohn- Walk On Water
So are you willing to wait, for a miracle? Willing to wait it through? Are you willing to wait for a miracle, or don't you believe they're true?
Danny: We'll figure it out. All of it. You can be scared. That's okay. But you're not gonna walk away from me because you're scared. I'm not that scary. I want you to do what you want to do. Take the job at the White House. I just want you to talk to me about it. I want us to talk about what it will mean and we'll make it work. I want us to talk like we're gonna figure it out together. I want us to talk...because I like the sound of your voice.
Ella Fitzgerald: What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life?
What are you doing the rest of your life? North and south and east and west of your life? I have only one request of your life: that you spend it all with me.
CJ: Franklin Hollice wants me to take ten billion dollars and go and fix the world.
Danny: That sounds like fun. Does that sound like fun to you? (CJ nods) Do you want to work at the White House?
CJ shakes her head.
Snow Patrol: Finish Line
I think the finish line's a good place we could start
Man: Hey, you work there?
CJ: Pardon?
Man: I said, do you work up there? In the White House.
C.J. smiles sadly
CJ: No. I don't.
Man: Oh, sorry.
CJ: No problem.
[Pause]
Man: Must be something, huh?
CJ: Yeah. Yeah, it must be something.
The Postal Service- Brand New Colony
The sun will hit the ground, under our bare feet in this brand new colony. Everything will change... everything will change.
Josh: Danny?
CJ: Waiting at LAX with a tub sunscreen.
BONUS:
Natalie Cole- This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)
This will be an everlasting love. This will be the one I've waited for. This will be the first time anyone has loved me...
... and they lived happily ever after!
