Sorry if this has been brought up before, but I swear I heard Cop Beat in Episode 14(Leland/BOB kills Maddy episode) in the scene when Audrey is at the sheriff's station telling Cooper about Ben Horne while he pieces together the torn pages of Laura's secret diary.

I thought Cop Beat was just new music never played in the TP universe, but it sure sounded like it. Can anyone confirm this?  If so, it was a pleasant surprise and I gained a healthier respect for the song that formally got no love from me.

"Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it, don't wait for it, just let it happen. Could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black coffee. Like this."  -Dale Cooper

I'm pretty sure the piece of music in episode 14 at the sheriff station is in fact "Audrey."

I know I'm in the minority, but Cop Beat is one of my favorite tracks.

I swear that track in episode 14 sounds eerily similar to Cop Beat and I got all excited when I was watching it last night.

It's not that Cop Beat is bad music, it's just all of the other TP songs are powerful because they evoke images from the TP universe and if Cop Beat is not in TP, it doesn't evoke anything.  I need images evoked when it comes to TP.

PS- I have finally caught up and enjoying your season 2 and 3 on dugpa, AudreyHorne

I love Cop Beat too. Amazingly cool piece. I can't remember actually hearing it on the show, though. I'll probably watch episode 14 in a week or two and I can listen for it.

It's a fine song except toward the end where they start messing with the chords from the Laura's Theme.  (Ive changed my vote for worst on the CD to Just You and I.  No bad reflection on James, just sh*tty lyrics.))
