Smallville soundtrack: Complete guide to all the songs featured in the show

Smallville premiered on The WB on October 16, 2001, before moving to The CW. The show modified Superman's origin story by focusing on Clark Kent's (Tom Welling) early years before he wore the red and blue outfit.

The series blended episodic "freak of the week" stories with in-depth explorations of Kryptonian mythology, Lex Luthor's villainy, and Clark's transformation into Superman.

For 10 seasons, Smallville portrayed Clark's transformation from a puzzled teenager with powers to a confident hero accepting his fate, laying the groundwork for his future as Superman.

Smallville's soundtrack defined it as much as its story and characters.

To highlight Clark Kent's teenage conflict, love connections, and heroic challenges, the series' music supervisor, Greg Cipes, and the series writers deftly combined late 1990s and 2000s alternative rock, indie, and pop-punk music.

Here is a list of the songs featured in Smallville, organized by season.

What is Smallville all about?

Smallville (Image via Amazon Prime Video)

Smallville was always about the path of self-discovery and the great weight of destiny. It focused on Clark Kent's struggle to balance his extraterrestrial background with his human upbringing.

Also, the series examined the classic Superman story from a very personal point of view.

Beyond Clark's own path, the series explored ideas of friendship, love, treachery, and the meaning of courage.

Key to the story of the series, Smallville, were his interactions with Lana Lang, Lex Luthor, Chloe Sullivan, and Lois Lane, which helped him to define humanity and his purpose within it.

Smallville crafted Lex Luthor's plunge into villainy, highlighting the gradual, agonizing process by which his friendship with Clark turned into bitter enmity.

As viewers saw Lex's good gradually getting tainted, this gave their legendary battle a really sad and human component.

Moreover, Smallville regularly explored moral conundrums, asking Clark to decide between the greater good and personal satisfaction or between safeguarding his secret and preserving life.

It showed that being a hero was about character, sacrifice, and a dedication to justice — even if the environment he lived in, particularly Smallville, appeared set to draw him into darkness — not simply about abilities.

Is Smallville connected to the new Superman film?

Smallville (Image via Amazon)

Directed by James Gunn, the forthcoming 2025 Superman movie marks a reboot of the Superman franchise by having David Corenswet as a younger Clark Kent.

Unlike the previous Smallville series, which concentrated on Clark's adolescent years and his path to becoming Superman, this movie shows a more seasoned Clark Kent negotiating his double identity as a journalist in Metropolis and a superhero.

Although Smallville and the 2025 Superman movie have the same basic character, they live in different continuities inside the DC Universe.

The series was part of the Arrowverse, a television universe unique from the cinematic DC Extended Universe (DCEU) and its successor, the DC Universe (DCU).

With new actors and a plot unrelated to the events or characters of Smallville, the 2025 film presents a novel narrative and character dynamics. Consequently, even if each shows Clark Kent's path, their continuity or plot is not aligned.

---

Smallville created a major niche in television history by offering a unique and prolonged view of the early years of one of the most famous superheroes worldwide.

From its ambitious narrative and gripping character arcs to its well chosen soundtrack, the series presented a whole and emotionally moving examination of Clark Kent's path to become Superman.

Meanwhile, Smallville is available for streaming on Hulu. It can also be watched on Max and Amazon Prime Video.
