I think I first noticed music, however, in a short-lived series called "Now and Again". It was about a man (played by John Goodman in the first episode) who is killed in a subway accident but whose mind is placed into a new, genetically bio-engineered body (played by Eric Close). The doctor in charge of the experiment has grand plans for him, but all he wants is to get back to his grieving wife and daughter. In that sense it's very romantic, that his love for his wife transcends death and that, even though he's now young and strong and handsome and could have almost any woman he wanted, the only one he wants is his wife. But getting back on topic, it's where I first heard Holly Cole's song "Make it Go Away or Make it Better", which I love.

One of my favorite of all time is Mountains of the Moon, an oldie but so goodie. It encompassed African rhythms as well as Scottish tunes and beautiful orchestral themes, as the story was about Burton and Speke's search for the source of the Nile back in the 1850s.
