Gossip Girl vs 90210 Music Showdown: Episode 6

Make sure to download the newest episode of the pmaCAST: Looking Better, Shining Brighter Than You Do, featuring Four Tet, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The xx, Yeasayer, Department of Eagles, Hot Chip and more.

Gossip Girl beats 90210 once again and I’m quickly running out of reasons to keep this thing going.

Gossip Girl has displayed a menagerie of great music in the past — however, New Haven Can Wait’s musical playlist feels a little dull. One beautiful gem almost smothered by the selection of lackluster songs, is the Section Quartet’s arrangement of my favorite Muse song, “Time Is Running Out.”

This song alone is worth voting for Gossip Girl.

Gossip Girl vs 90210 Music Showdown: Episode 6 listen

Gossip Girl – New Haven Can Wait (aired 10-13-2008 to 3.34 million viewers)
The Submarines – The Wake Up Song
The Friendly Fires – White Diamonds
The Duke Spirit – Wooden Heart
The Section Quartet – Time Is Running Out [if you have the mp3 PLEASE share. I want this so bad]
(Muse – Time Is Running Out)
Jamie Blake – Dragstrip Girl (who? what? where? sorry, I could not find an mp3 to share)

90210 has always done great with mixing up the Top 40 sounds (P!nk) while still keeping its indie-cred. 90210 has also pushed a couple of artists I’ve never listed to before (Senor Happy, Natalie Walker). A well rounded list, as per usual. Maybe this time, 90210′ comprehensiveness is enough to overthrow Gossip Girl’s undying charisma.

    I stumbled upon it in this blog who shares GG’s songs too http://letmeplaythemusic.blogspot.com/2008/09/must-discover-artists-vol-3-rediscover.html
    But I think that yours is better! :D

  9. Luis — I see people posted it, but Hype Machine is where it’s at. http://www.hypem.com — I always instantly do a search there first for any of this crazy indie or electronic stuff.

  10. Thanks for the link uri. Now my bandwidth is dead.

  11. Haha

    I stumbled also on http://letmeplaythemusic.blogspot.com/. I think Metaphor’s better. I like PMA but the other blog has far more comprehensive list on GG’s music.

    Peace.
