Gossip Girl vs 90210 Music Showdown: Episode 1

Make sure to download the newest episode of the pmaCAST: There's Something Living In These Lines, featuring Animal Collective, Vampire Weekend, Cut Copy, Friendly Fires, Freelance Whales, Passion Pit and more.

Last season, I held a Gossip Girl vs Chuck Music Showdown, but doesn’t Gossip Girl vs 90210 make much more sense? Yeah, I thought so too. Gossip Girl and 90210 both premiered on Monday (9.01) and Tuesday (9.02) respectively. Here’s the music that I managed to track down from both shows.

Gossip Girl
So far Gossip Girl’s music doesn’t really reflect on its soundtrack at all.
Gossip Girl – Summer, Kind of Wonderful 9.01.08
Shwayze – Buzzin’
Motion City Soundtrack – Fell In Love Without You (Acoustic)
Lady GaGa – Paparazzi
The Windupdeads – Reverse Of Shade
Jem – Crazy
Teyana Taylor – Google Me

90210
In my humble opinion, 90210 fuckin’ creams Gossip Girl — music-wise, GG is still mah show bitches.
90210 – We’re Not In Kansas Anymore 9.02.08
The Ting Tings – That’s Not My Name
Adele – Chasing Pavements
MGMT – Time To Pretend
Coldplay – Viva La Vida
Tilly And The Wall – Beat Control
Tilly And The Wall – Pot Kettle Black
Colby O’Donis – What You Got
The Offspring – Your Gonna Go Far, Kid

But now you get to vote! Woot.

    Gossip girl is way better. But 90210’s music is great

  2. Both are TERRIBLE shows, but if they are judged on soundtracks alone, not only would 90210 win hands down, it may just be one of the best shows on tv!

    You’re missing “Let It Rock” by Kevin Rudolf featuring Lil Wayne on the 90210 list.

    this guy has the exact same post…
    http://kevinjung.ca/?p=291 wtf?

  8. haha, if you notice, i posted this a whole day before him. AND the songs he linked to, are the same songs i did. he just copied the idea, not the exact post. no biggie.

  9. The only thing about 90210’s soundtrack is that it was nothing new. That MGMT song has been on Gossip Girl, plus Charlie Bartlett and anything else trying to be hip in the past year. Same with the Ting Tings. The House Bunny had two Ting Tings songs in it. Adele? Coldplay? Getting pretty tired, wouldn’t you say?

    Umm just so you know, Gossip Girl already had Ting Tings and MGMT featured in episodes…last season. So actually 90210 is ripping off their music. So that means GG wins

    whats the song from the episode 5 or 6 and it says “smile like you meen it” in it

    I am in love with both of the shows, but I’ve only just been introduced to 90210 and I’ve read the Gossip Girl books and seen more episodes, but I absolutely ADORE the music they use! But I’d have to say that Gossip Girl has better music ;P

  16. LEviNe

    i think GG is the winner… 90210 just way behind them okey!!! 90210 just follow GG music….

  17. Lyric79

    OMG thank you for posting “That’s Not My Name.” That song has been literally on loop in my head since I heard it on the show, but I had no idea who did it until now.

    OOOH, wait up. I love Google (lol). I just found the link to the album on Itunes (sorry, guys, I couldn’t find the song on its own /:= the previews are sounding pretty awesome though).

    Here you go, physical proof that 90210 blows Gossip Girl out of the water. So there -(=

    GG uses uncommon music that is sort of weird-sounding and different that no one knows about

    90210 uses common music teens listen to. I think it's too BLAH and overused…

    So GG.
