1* The song that plays at the beginning of "The 12-Step Job" and during the poker game in "The Bottle Job", called "Can't Go Home Again." [[http://www.ifmagazine.com/new.asp?article=7934 Many fans were sure it was a song by Dropkick Murphys or another Boston-area punk band]], but it was actually written for ''Series/{{Leverage}}'' by the show's composer, Joseph [=LoDuca=], because the show's budget wouldn't allow licensing music.
2* In "The Two-Horse Job", when Eliot and his old flame [[spoiler: get back together]], the backing track is a song by Creator/ChristianKane's band called "More Than I Deserve". Why license when you have the actor working for you anyway?
3* "Thinking of You", Eliot's song from "The Studio Job", which Christian Kane wrote and sang himself. He's actually [[http://christiankane.com/music/ a professional country music singer]] as well as an actor and that song can be found on his album ''The House Rules''.
4-->'''Hardison''': Nate, something's wrong. The system's not correcting his voice. \
5'''Nate''': That's because it doesn't need correcting.
6* Hardison’s violin solo in "The Scheherazade Job" is ''so'' '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj0UBMgR2gk beautiful]]''' that it stops the others dead in the middle of their job and makes Parker shed a SingleTear.
7* The theme tune itself. Come on, admit it, if your life had a soundtrack, there's no song you'd rather hit, hack, grift, thieve or mastermind to.
8* Hardison's mix in "The First Contact Job", which he plays as background "chase music" during a car scene as he adds lyrics "Two good ol' boys, behind the wheel! Chasin' down bad guys in Lucille..!"
9-->'''Eliot''': [[EarWorm I just got that song out of my head]].\
10'''Sophie''': Well it's very catchy.
