Revealed: The Spooky Secret Behind Wednesday Season 2’s Trailer Song

BBG News

The new trailer for season 2 of “Wednesday” features an intriguing song selection. In this series, we follow the adventures of Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega), one of the beloved characters from “The Addams Family”. Instead of being an oddity among her family, she attends a peculiar boarding school where she fits right in. The academy is filled with outcasts like werewolves and sirens, so Wednesday doesn’t stand out as unusual there. “Wednesday” delves deeper into the history of “The Addams Family”, all while providing an excellent playlist for viewers to enjoy.

In the Netflix series Wednesday, the music selection consistently feels tailor-made for each episode. The first season offered a standout moment when Wednesday, initially reluctant, enjoyed an event at Nevermore Academy by dancing to “Goo Goo Muck” by The Cramps. The dance routine from Wednesday, quickly becoming viral, was spot-on. Now, with the trailer for season 2 out, not only is the song choice suitable for the show, but it might also provide some clues about the forthcoming storyline.

“My Favorite Things” Plays During Wednesday Season 2’s Trailer

The Song Is A Very Fitting Choice For The Wednesday Trailer

In the trailer for season 2 of Wednesday, I hear a fresh and eerie rendition of “My Favorite Things” playing, a tune that might spark recognition among musical enthusiasts. This captivating melody is actually a track from the classic musical, The Sound of Music, where Julie Andrews graced the stage. The trailer opens with Wednesday navigating airport security, carelessly leaving her sun cream behind and triggering a scolding. As the trailer progresses, it subtly hints at several supernatural occurrences to unfold.

On Wednesdays, they often choose upbeat tunes as a striking contrast to Wednesday’s typical melancholic demeanor. In the first season, Bobby McFerrin’s “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” and Fleetwood Mac’s “Don’t Stop” were played in scenes where Wednesday felt awkward. The musical number “My Favorite Things” from “The Sound of Music” was sung to comfort frightened children during a storm, while the Wednesday trailer hints that Wednesday’s favorite things are quite unlike those of most people. Using an eerie version of a traditionally cheerful song is a perfect fit for Wednesday, but it could also carry another significant message.

The Real Meaning Of “My Favorite Things” In Wednesday Season 2’s Trailer

The Lyrics In Wednesday’s Trailer Song Could Also Be A Literal Hint At What’s To Come

In the second season of Wednesday, details about the plot have been kept under wraps, but there are suggestions that the narrative will delve deeper into supernatural aspects. The wide array of weapons Wednesday carries might be characteristic of her, yet it could also indicate that she’ll encounter foes vulnerable to various elements. The song playing during Wednesday’s reunion with Enid and family time suggests a focus on personal connections. The lyrics “I simply remember my favorite things, and then I don’t feel so bad” may hint at Wednesday relying on those she cares about as she navigates challenges ahead.

In the “My Favorite Things” song, some of the words seem to correspond with visuals from the Wednesday season 2 trailer. For instance, items that are referred to as “my favorite things” appear on screen, and for the line “when the bee stings“, bees can actually be seen. Interestingly, the lyric “when the dog bites” could also apply literally in Wednesday, since it’s been confirmed that Wednesday’s roommate and best friend Enid will have a different form as a werewolf in season 2. Whether the song is meant to be taken literally or as a symbolic commentary on Wednesday, using it for season 2’s trailer certainly added an interesting touch.
