The full album will be available next week
Two new songs from Nobody Wants This Season 2: The Soundtrack drop a week ahead of the new season’s premiere on Netflix. “You’ve Got Another Thing Coming” by multi-platinum hitmaker Teddy Swims and “That’s What I’ll Be” by rising country artist Baylee Lynn are now available. Due out October 23rd via The Core Records in partnership with Interscope Records, the 19-song all-star soundtrack to Netflix’s Emmy-nominated smash-hit rom-com will also feature new music from Selena Gomez, Chris Stapleton, Finneas, Kacey Musgraves, and many more.
Featured in the recently released tracklist reveal video for Nobody Wants This Season 2: The Soundtrack, “You’ve Got Another Thing Coming” spotlights the visceral emotionality and sophisticated songcraft Swims has previously brought to smash hits like “Lose Control” — a six-times-platinum 2023 single that shattered the record for longest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Billboard Hot 100 top ten, paving the way for his Best New Artist nomination at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards. Produced by Jeff “Gitty” Gitelman (Doja Cat, Hozier, Victoria Monét), “You’ve Got Another Thing Coming” sets the Georgia-bred artist’s raw yet masterful vocals against a classic soul backdrop of smoldering guitar tones, lush piano work, velvety background harmonies, and high-drama strings. With its unbridled expression of post-breakup pain, the result is equal parts haunting, hypnotic, and gorgeously cathartic.
“That’s What I’ll Be” centers on a tender but powerful vocal performance from Baylee, a 17-year-old artist who got her start singing in church as a little girl in Greeneville, TN. In a departure from the feel-good country-pop of her debut single “Cautiously Optimistic” (a summer 2025 release that was Billboard’s editorial pick), the track embodies a gentle intensity as Baylee delivers a poignant message of reassurance and devotion to the one she adores. With production from her frequent collaborator AJ Pruis (a Grammy-nominated producer/songwriter/ musician known for his work with Megan Moroney, Maddie & Tae, and more), “That’s What I’ll Be” ultimately makes for an unforgettable new turn from one of Nashville’s brightest young stars.
To assemble the tracklist for Nobody Wants This Season 2: The Soundtrack, The Core Entertainment CEO and Co-Founder Simon Tikhman worked alongside his team at The Core, Interscope, and Aperture Music to curate a genre-spanning collection of unreleased, original songs from some of today’s most celebrated artists. Also featuring Role Model, Benee, Alessia Cara, Royel Otis, Ella Langley, Just Jayne, and more, the soundtrack includes the previously released “Bite My Tongue” by up-and-coming folk-pop singer/songwriter Cassandra Coleman (featured in Netflix’s official trailer for season two), “Dancing In The Smoke” by seven-time Grammy-nominated R&B star Giveon, “Melodies” by chart-topping Irish singer/songwriter Dermot Kennedy, “Your Girl” by acclaimed alt-pop/rock artist Towa Bird, and “Palomino” by multiple Grammy- and Academy Award-winning artist/composer/producer Finneas.
After its premiere in fall 2024, Nobody Wants This quickly became one of the most talked-about shows in the streaming era, sparking widespread obsession with its binge-ready tale of the unconventional romance between Joanne (a podcaster played by Kristen Bell) and Noah (a rabbi played by Adam Brody). Along with earning a host of nominations from the Primetime Emmy Awards (including Outstanding Comedy Series) and the Golden Globe Awards, the show’s first season found Brody winning a Critics’ Choice Television Award in the category of Best Actor in a Comedy Series. In addition, season one of Nobody Wants This garnered a nomination for Best Music Supervision – Television at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards, thanks to a knockout soundtrack including the likes of Dua Lipa and Olivia Rodrigo. Music supervision for season two of Nobody Wants This was led by Aperture Music’s Manish Raval, Tom Wolfe, and Jonathan Leahy.
