Episode: "Cabin Fever"
"Everyday," Buddy Holly and the Crickets
(purchase/download)

Season 5
Episode: "Because You Left""Shotgun Willie," Willie Nelson (purchase/download)
A song that Willie recorded just before his 1975 commercial breakthrough, this appears to have no particular significance in its scene, being played as Pierre Chang gets up to feed baby Miles. Unless the fact that the record skips signifies a rift in time...
