Here we go again, this time with music recaps of the most recent episodes of Gossip Girl and 90210, along with the second third of Chuck’s season two.
Starting with Gossip Girl’s fourteenth episode in season two, “In The Realm Of The Basses.” This annoyingly-titled episode contains one of the show’s best song selections to date- Department of Eagles’ catchy and beautiful “No One Does It Like You.” It also featured a song from the great rising band The Little Ones. Their song “Morning Tide” was stuck in my head for a while, and the song used on GG, “Like A Spoke on a Wheel,” is great as well. Another fantastic song used was “Who’s Crying” by The Temporary Thing. I’m going to check out more of their music right now.
OK, I’m back. It’s a guy named Andrew Gleason. He’s really good.
The list:
- No One Does It Like You- Department of Eagles
- Who’s Crying- The Temporary Thing
- Like A Spoke on a Wheel – The Little Ones
- Scarlet- Magic Bullets
- I’m Not Cool- Sohodolls
- Mayday- Unkle featuring The Duke Spirit
- Ricochet!- Shiny Toy Guns
- My Crown- The Sugar Migration
- E.S.T- White Lies
90210 had a good music week as well, with “Hello, Goodbye, Amen,” episode 12, featuring one of my favorite songs of 2008, “Spaceman.” By none other than Brandon Flowers and The Killers. The episode also used a Joshua Radin song, “The Fear That You Won’t Fall.” His music is always good for television shows like these. Continue reading →
