# List of The L Word soundtracks

Showtime drama The L Word has released five soundtrack compilation albums. The music composer of the show is EZgirl.

## Season 1 Soundtrack

Season 1 Soundtrack is a compilation of soundtracks from the Showtime show The L Word. It features songs that were used as soundtracks from its first season.
It was released in 2004, the same year as the show's premiere.

### Critical reception

On AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote, "The soundtrack to Showtime's lesbian answer to Sex and the City is much like the show itself — classy, upscale, sophisticated, well-intentioned, and in good taste, but overly earnest and is lacking a sense of humor.... As such, it's not bad as background music, but it's not compelling listening on its own terms, even if it captures the sound and feel of the show quite well."

### Critical reception

On AllMusic, Heather Phares said, "Spanning club-friendly dance-pop, confessional singer/songwriters and classic pop, the soundtrack to The L Word: The Second Season showcases the series' eclectic taste in music.... A hipper and more contemporary collection than the first season's soundtrack, [it] works well both in and out of the show's context."

## Season 3 Soundtrack

### Critical reception

On Edge Media Network, Melissa Bourgeois wrote, "The L Word Season 3 Soundtrack ranges from sultry jazz and lounge, to high energy dance and rock. Like in the show, girrrls dominate on this soundtrack, leaving D'Angelo to be the lone male rep, swimming in a sea of estrogen.... Overall, go for it. Both well-known and lesser-known artists are represented, most likely giving you the opportunity to tread new waters."
