Bedside Manner Playlist

This playlist moves from taut, focused instrumentals that suggest the demands of residency and the friction between Linden and Grant into warmer, more openly romantic songs as their arrangement turns personal. Its mix of intimate acoustic sounds, understated pop, and measured rhythmic tracks reflects a contemporary hospital romance without assuming a specific city or borrowing another story’s soundtrack.
