    not only is the best music moment ever used in TWD not in the choices above — but it’s the best use of music ive ever EVER seen in any TV series. When they show the flashback of The Governor in season 4 episode 6 – The Last Pale Light in the West by Ben Nichols — Chills every time.

    ‘Be Not So Fearful’ was very fitting on the approach to Terminus (or perhaps no so… If that makes sense). Regardless, nice cover by A.C. Newman and was a great scene. +1 on that from me! 🙂

    Now on my YouTube, the most viewed one is The Regulator but my personal favorite, I think, is Up The Wolves ’cause there’s gonna be a party when the wolf comes home. Honorable mentions are Last Pale Light in the West and Lead Me Home, which was played in “Clear” as Rick, Carl and Michonne drive back to the prison. I think Warm Shadow and You Are The Wilderness added an amazing atmosphere to what was going on at the time in the show too.

    Really disappointed that The Last Pale Light in the West wasn’t on the poll. Used when the Governor is wandering aimlessly, after the fallout of the season 3 finale. That scene and that song are so very good.

    Runner ups would be Civilian in season 2 and Oats in the Water from season 4.

        I like a few of these songs mentioned & others don’t do a thing for me. Actually, the music that has always stood out for me is Bear McCreary’s The Mercy of the Living. When I hear this, it’s a scene where I’m usually in tears, near tears, or impacted with a heavy heart.

          BTW, if I had to pick one from what’s mentioned here, I’d have to go with Blackbird Song with Oats in the Water running a close second. Up the Wolves matches its episode perfectly in how I feel about it: GAG!

    Wasn’t in an episode, but Kari Kimmel’s “Black” from the season 3 comic con preview was epic I thought, with the whole “Welcome to Woodbury” before it started, and later Rick saying “This prison is ours, we took it. We spilled blood!” Never forget how psyched I was for that season to start.

    The Nebraska episode. When Rick shot those men it was very John Wayne and Dirty Harry. Clutch by the Regulator played for that scene. It was a very powerful scene. Rick knew then that was how he had to protect himself and the group from others.

    I voted for “Blackbird Song”; because that song, coupled with Gilliard’s superb acting made for an unforgettable TWD scene. So much feels in that scene; and not a word spoken.

    But my personal favorite would have to be, hands down the song “Space Junk” by Wang Chung; played during the ending credits of the pilot episode as the camera pans up from the tank, and herd of walkers feasting on Rick’s horse, until it’s high above the city you can truly get your first look at the grand scale and magnitude of the devastation.
