A full breakdown of the soundtrack behind the final season of Stranger Things.<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Since Stranger Things first hit screens in 2016, fans have loved the soundtracks that accompany each season. They\u2019re nostalgic, they\u2019re emotional, and often put the spotlight on fan-favorites from the 80s era that the show is set in. Just look at what happened with Kate Bush\u2019s \u201cRunning Up That Hill (A Deal With God)\u201d which went viral and hit the charts in the summer of 2022 alongside Season 4. There\u2019s no wonder the Official Stranger Things Playlist<\/a> is now the third most saved soundtrack<\/a> on Spotify<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, the fifth and final season has wrapped, and the music was once again front and center of the show’s most definitive moments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The series finale alone featured a number of iconic needle-drops, including tracks from Fleetwood Mac, David Bowie, and even Prince- an artist who was, and still is thanks to his estate, notoriously known for not licensing his music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s a look at every song featured in the final season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
