What is the song that plays at the end of “The last of us”, chapter 1?
The premiere ended with Joel, Ellie and Tess leaving Boston, while a radio was shown playing the song “Never let me down again” by Depeche Mode, which corresponds to the album “Music for the masses” from 1987.
In the official HBO Max podcast for “The last of us”, Craig Mazin, creator of the series, explained that the song acts as a signal for help used by Joel, Bill and Frank, characters who communicate through the radio. .
In the plot, Ellie is the one who gives more details about this mechanism, noting that Joel uses a code to communicate with others. If a song from the 60s is playing, it means that there is “nothing inside”. On the other hand, if you hear a song from the 70s, it means that there is “new stock”. Now, if one of the 80s appears, “there are problems.”
“What we wanted was an ’80s song that felt, at least initially, up-tempo. But lyrically, we needed one with deep lyrics,” Mazin explained, commenting on why they chose the melody.
