All The Songs In ‘The Dog Stars’: From Hozier To Caamp

(L-R) Jacob Elordi as Hig and Margaret Qualley as Cima in 20th Century Studios' THE DOG STARS Fabio Lovino/20th Century Studios The Jacob Elordi-starring and Ridley Scott-directed The Dog Stars adapation of Peter Heller’s novel features a soundtrack that fits the folk and rock themes and tones of the movie. Based on Heller’s 2012 from a script by Mark L. Smith, The Dog Stars follows mechanic-turned-pilot Hig (Jacob Elordi), who goes in search of survivors of a deadly flu pandemic and blood virus after living quietly in an abandoned airship with Bangley (Josh Brolin), who does not have as much hope in humanity as Hig. The film opens with Hozier’s “Like Real People Do,” and later on, when Hig meets Cima (Margaret Qualley), he plays Caamp’s “By and By” for her on headphones because she says she misses music and dancing in the post-pandemic world. Alongside these folk songs, there are needle drops from Van Morrison, Dean Martin and Mick Jagger. Hozier’s “Like Real People Do” comes back around at the end to book end the story.
