So they’ve always been rather descriptive for S1-3… but we seem to get more musical motifs in S4. Almost doubled when compared to S1-3. More like TAB with all its different layers.

 And the titles seem a bit more metaphorical for S4: Get Your Attention / Who I Want To Be / Who You Really Are… 

On the other hand, the track titles sometimes directly refer to lines spoken on the show (’Addicted to a certain lifestyle’ in Watson Domestic, for example)…

But that is something I posted before connected to the new titles @isitandwonder: be careful with the titles, sometimes they are very telling, but very often they are extremely misleading on the first sight instead…only making sense when you see the scene and hear the music!!! So I’m extremely curious for the new score!!!

Which titles do you consider misleading (from the episodes we know)? I honestly don’t think they have been actually misleading. For me there are only three titles of which I’d say it’s nearly impossible to deduce the actual scene:

Double bedroom (= context meaning: no double bedroom)
John is quite a guy (=context meaning: John is Guy Fawkes in a bonfire)
Lestrade  - the movie (=context meaning: several scenes focussing on Lestrade an the Water’s case, let’s give him some very heroic action movie score)

As I wrote before, I think for S4 they kept on choosing snippets from the dialogue for the titles as in S3. So of course we can’t know what the context of these words is, but the chosen words have not been misleading for S3, but have been rather crucial dialogue parts.
