RE: What's your favourite TV program soundtrack?

The series Weeds uses Little Boxes by Malvina Reynolds as its theme.  In the 2nd, 3rd and 8th seasons they had the theme music covered by various artists.  My Favourite is this one by Regina Spektor:

The list of covers can be found on the Wiki Smile

He lives in the US. He's going to star in the film 1066, which is yet to be completed.
