It's a beautiful day here in the sunny Northern Rivers region, and I am sitting inside sneezing sullenly all over my laptop in the hope that I can finish this stupid EBM assignment before my immune system completely gives out

There are so many! Unsurprisingly, a lot of Sarah McLachlan, as she was a staple in the old WB days aka the formative days of my adolescence. "Fear" always makes me think of the pilot episode of Roswell and gives me this feeling of, idk, strange wonderment. And "Full of Grace" for the S2 finale of Buffy and the heartbreak contained therein.
More recently, when I hear "Cut" by Plumb I always want to go back and watch this scene from The Vampire Diaries. I associate it a lot with that scene and that feeling of first love.
Oh, that's a lovely song! I can't dl anything because I'm using my hosts' wireless, but I will try to remember to hit you up for it when I'm back in Sydney.
I'm sure there are many but in my cold-medicine-addled brain, Hometown Glory by Adele being played in 2x09 of Skins seems to stand out. Here's a link but it may be hard to appreciate if you're not familiar with the character-arc (and sort of spoilery if you haven't seen the show and ever plan to). Gorgeous song though.
I've only seen the first two seasons/series of Skins but I find they generally handle the music bit very well :)
"Storybook Love." Which, okay, was written (kind of) for the movie, but whatever. Perfect love story + childhood memories + Willy DeVille's crazy voice . . . It always makes me cry happy tears.
Also, "I Will Follow You Into the Dark" was on a lot of R/S fanmixes back when HP was going on, so 75% of my emotional reaction to that song stems from its relationship to the pairing.
Staunton Lick is my incontrovertible happy ending song, for Spaced. Every time I hear it I smile helplessly and feel like everything's going to be okay, for a little while at least. :D

More, I think, than any other show. Which sounds impossible, considering some of the other show's I've loved, but is true.

Lemon Jelly are good at that, though; Nice Weather For Ducks is likewise happeaceful.
