There’s nothing quite like a sonically and lyrically eclectic soundtrack to amplify the many highs and lows of a TV series. Crescendos coincide with each climax, melancholic tunes accompany the saddest moments, and introspective tracks help us delve into each character’s psyche. It really makes a difference to the viewing experience.
From indie and alternative rock, to dream pop and electronic dance, there is no shortage of musical excellence on the predominantly Arabic AlRawabi School for Girls soundtracks.
Cosmo ME compiles a list of all the fantastic tunes here – which you can listen to whenever you feel like being transported to the magical universe of AlRawabi School for Girls, Season 2.
