A complete guide to every pop song reimagined on Bridgerton

A look at the contemporary hits transformed into Bridgerton’s signature sound

Bridgerton has made its pop music covers as iconic as its corsets and ballrooms. Since debuting in 2020, the Netflix series has blended Regency era drama with orchestral versions of modern hits, using familiar melodies to ground its romances in contemporary emotion.

Season one established the formula, pairing Daphne and Simon’s courtship with string covers of Ariana Grande’s Thank U, Next, Billie Eilish’s Bad Guy, and Taylor Swift’s Wildest Dreams. The music added wit and emotional shorthand beneath the show’s polished surface.

Season two took a darker turn alongside Anthony and Kate’s tense romance. Songs like Nirvana’s Stay Away, Alanis Morissette’s You Oughta Know, and Miley Cyrus’ Wrecking Ball underscored suppressed desire and emotional conflict.

By season three, the soundtrack softened to reflect Colin and Penelope’s friends to lovers arc. Covers of BTS’ Dynamite, Billie Eilish’s Happier Than Ever, and Taylor Swift’s You Belong With Me leaned into vulnerability and long held yearning.

Season four continues the tradition with a mix of romantic optimism and risk, including Coldplay’s Life in Technicolor, Taylor Swift’s Enchanted, and Olivia Rodrigo’s Bad Idea Right?
