How New Music From Miley, Megan Moroney, Bella Kay & More Landed on the ‘Nobody Wants This’ Season Three Soundtrack: ‘It Was a Win-Win for All’

Executive producer Simon Tikhman takes us inside this season’s soundtrack to the hit Netflix show.

Miley Cyrus and several cast members of the hit Netflix series Nobody Wants This collaborated on the season three soundtrack. The album is set to release on Atlantic Records alongside the show's new episodes. The romantic comedy follows an agnostic podcaster and a rabbi as they navigate love. The soundtrack features 16 unreleased singles from various artists, including Miley, Ellie Goulding, Ravyn Lenae, Metric, Bella Kay, and Bella Zimmerman and Stella Lefty.

Country artist Megan Moroney wrote the first original song for the album, "Say When," inspired by the show. Landing an original song was challenging, but the process was made easier by working with experienced producers. The album's success was partly due to the show's popularity and the music's integral role in it. A year ago, Tikhman started working on the album, but he knew to leave room for relevant artists at the time of the show's release, which he achieved by collaborating with The Core's head of A&R, Jamie Sudhalter.

The album's songs, except for Miley's "Cold Blooded," appear in the show, with Tikhman prioritizing the preservation of the show's success.
