Billie Eilish Songs in Netflix Shows and Movies - Netflix Tudum
It’s hard to put pop star Billie Eilish in a genre box, as she mixes pop, alternative, and electronic music to create both broody beats and dance tunes. And that versatility is also what makes her music perfect for so many different occasions. Eilish has evolved so much in the near decade since she released her first single, “Ocean Eyes,” and throughout that time, music from Eilish’s different eras has set the tone for all sorts of emotions and moments in TV and film — her songs are fitting for romance, disagreements, reminiscing, and big life changes.
As you prepare to vibe out on her 2025 Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour, which kicks off this October, we have the perfect Billie Eilish playlist for you: a collection of big musical moments from movies and shows.
Bridgerton
The rendition of Eilish’s “Bad Guy” in this episode is unique because it’s played by a string quartet in the 1800s. The song plays while Daphne Basset (Phoebe Dynevor) attends a ball where she seeks a royal suitor — kicking off a season of romantic power games to rival Eilish’s lyrics.
The Umbrella Academy
Another rendition of “Bad Guy,” this time with a sprinkle of ska, plays in The Umbrella Academy during an intense but playful chase and fight scene between Five (Aidan Gallagher) and Lila (Ritu Arya). Five chases her down as Lila reminds him that the last time they saw each other, he said he would kill her — so let’s get this done!
You
Blink and you’ll miss it, but “Lost Cause” plays in the background of Love’s (Victoria Pedretti) bakery as she listens in on a conversation between patrons about a recent murder in the community. You can see Love connecting the dots in her head while the song plays — hints are sprinkled all throughout the show’s twist narrative.
Locke & Key
“You Should See Me In a Crown” is the perfect needle drop for this moment at the end of Season 1, as Lucas Caravaggio (Felix Mallard) literally crowns himself and welcomes the darkness.
A Babysitter's Guide to Monster Hunting
Kelly Ferguson (Tamara Smart) wakes up in the middle of class from a nightmare about a monster under her bed. When her classmates make fun of her for falling asleep — and for being a math wiz — “Everything I Wanted” begins to play, with Kelly feeling alone and cast out among her peers.
Baby
In the Season 2 opener of this Italian series, Eilish’s “I Love You” plays toward the end of the episode when Chiara and her new boyfriend, Damiano, get intimate for the first time. It’s a sweet moment between the young couple. And this isn’t the only time you’ll hear Eilish’s music in Baby — you can listen for “When the Party’s Over” in the third episode of Season 2 and “Listen Before I Go” in Episode 3 of Season 3.
Dance 100
In the dance competition show Dance 100, “Bellyache” is used in the most literal way in Season 2, when a contestant choreographs a hip-hop dance to the Marian Hill remix of the song. It’s both smooth and goes hard as dancers move seamlessly as a group and as individuals.
Do Revenge
Eilish’s song “Happier Than Ever,” about her anger toward a toxic partner, is the perfect song for this pivotal moment between Drea (Camila Mendes) and Eleanor (Maya Hawke), as they come face-to-face in the hospital. The two girls have all but destroyed each other, and Eleanor feels like she finally got her revenge on the high school kids who made her life hell. But at what cost?
Workin' Moms
In the Season 4 finale of Workin’ Moms, Anne (Dani Kind) comes over late at night to share some sad news with Kate (Catherine Reitman). The women hug as Eilish’s “When the Party’s Over” starts to play, which makes for both a somber and sweet moment between the friends.
Warrior Nun
In the Warrior Nun pilot, Ava Silva (Alba Baptista) wakes up in a church in Andalusia, Spain, confused about where she is and how she got there. All she knows is that she has to get out of there, which is when “Ilomilo” needle drops, as Ava sneaks out of the church and into the streets to figure out her next move.
First Kill
Vampire sisters Juliette (Sarah Catherine Hook) and Elinor (Gracie Dzienny) are out on the town playing a drinking game where they take a drunk man out into the back alley and take turns sucking his blood. The use of “Bury a Friend” is pretty comical here as the sisters get their fix to the lyrics “The way I’m drinking you down like I wanna drown.” The song choice absolutely slayed — literally.
Jumping from High Places
Andrea Gabellone
In this coming-of-age movie, Sole (Federica Torchetti) wants to honor her best friend’s last wish by confronting her greatest fears and taking control of her life. “Listen Before I Go” plays during a session with her therapist as they discuss her desire to conquer her fears while she grieves Emma’s (Sara Mondello) death.
13 Reasons Why
Open and introspective, Eilish is something like a voice of her generation, so it’s no surprise that this often-heavy high school show loves to incorporate her emo pop into its season finales. If you listen closely in the Season 1 finale, you might hear “Bored” in the background of Monet’s coffee house when Clay (Dylan Minnette) and Jessica (Alisha Boe) meet up. Meanwhile, “Lovely” plays in the background of a touching scene in the Season 2 closer when Clay takes steps to process his grief over losing Hannah (Katherine Langford) and finds a way to celebrate her life.
Resident Evil
Season 1 of Resident Evil both opens and closes with Eilish setting the tone for this postapocalyptic universe. The series premiere opens with “Oxytocin” playing over the introduction to the world as it was before the end times — a world where everything looks the same in its dull white and grey hues. The season finale takes a different tone with “When I Was Older,” which needle drops at a pivotal moment.
