Tangled up in blue

Episode: Suspect

Song: Tangled up in blue (Bob Dylan)

First track of 'Blood On The Tracks' (shortened version, cutting out the music at the end). This is a superb synchronicity, Alex doesn't have enough money to eat at the diner, and her family won't give or even lend her any so she is forced to get a job, where she is accused of stealing. This is a special episode that works beautifully with many different albums.

'Desperate Housewives' episode: Sunday

Song: Tangled up in blue (Bob Dylan)

First track of 'Bob Dylan Greatest Hits Volume 3' - different album, same first song. Though if one album works the other one often will as well with the same episode. As usual with these things the synchronicity will make more sense if you are familiar with the story. Katherine is figuratively "tangled up in blue", troubled by sadness, and as usual people and things are literally "tangled up in blue", eg. Lynette has a blue cord tied around her waist, there is a blue ribbon tied onto one of the baskets, etc. This is another special episode that works with many different albums.
