As a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes, I was thrilled to binge-watch Guy Ritchie’s new series, ‘Young Sherlock,’ now streaming on Prime Video. It’s a fun, fast-paced adventure that takes a young Sherlock, played by Hero Fiennes Tiffin, all over the world. I really enjoyed it!
If you enjoyed the music in director Ritchie’s earlier Sherlock Holmes movies with Robert Downey Jr., you’ll be pleased to know this one has a similarly catchy and memorable soundtrack.
The series has a captivating musical score by Chris Benstead, and also incorporates popular songs, including a memorable track used in the opening credits.
But just which songs are featured in the show?

The Young Sherlock soundtrack features well-known songs by artists like Black Sabbath, The Cure, and The Black Keys. A complete list of tracks is available below.
Episode 1
Okay, so I’ve been really into a few tracks lately and wanted to share. First up is Lankum with their hauntingly beautiful “The Rocky Road to Dublin.” Then there’s Smoove & Turrell – their song “I’m a Man” is just incredible. For something completely different, The Damned’s “Neat Neat Neat” is a total blast from the past. I also can’t get enough of The Unthanks’ “Magpie” – it’s so atmospheric. And finally, Miles Kane’s “Don’t Forget Who You Are” is a fantastic, energetic tune that always puts me in a good mood.
