Yes, the Same 1960s Song Is Used in Multiple Seasons of "Black Mirror"

"Joan Is Awful," the titular character, played by Annie Murphy, steps into a bar to meet her ex-boyfriend just a few minutes into the first episode of season six of "Black Mirror." The singer croons, "You can blame me, try to shame me." The song isn't particularly relevant to the scene or even the overall story line, but eagle-eared followers of Charlie Brooker's long-running technology-is-terrifying series certainly will recognize it. The track in question is a 1964 song penned by Irma Thomas, who wrote "Toy Story" (tune fame) and titled "Anyone Who Knows What Love Is" (Will Understand). "Joan Is Awful" is the sixth episode of the series "Black Mirror" — it appears that it appears only once a season.
