I’m a bit behind on the Gossip Girl series here on TWF, but I’m catching up. Although yesterday’s episode was the twelfth {that word is honestly spelled weird} this is only volume ten in the series. So as a little refresher the tenth episode was the one containing the debutante ball and all the other things that only the uber rich do. I could rehash the predictability of the episode or I could just point you at one of my favorite websites of all time. That would be Television Without Pity {or as they refer to themselves TWoP} and their snarky little writeup of this episode. You can find that here, but I must warn you the recap provided is scathing, witty, hilarious, and about fifteen pages long.
All the tracks in one zip file : here {zshare = left click}
mp3 : Mel Torme - Comin’ Home Baby
mp3 : One Republic - Apologize (Timbaland Remix)
mp3 : Rooney - What For
mp3 : Sea Wolf - You’re A Wolf
mp3 : The Pierces - Secret
mp3 : The Pierces - Three Wishes
The Mel Torme track is timeless and should be appreciated by everyone from your Grandmother to your hip hoping friends. The second track in this mix is one that I am frustrated about. It’s a great track, a solid song, but I cannot for the life of me understand why every blog from A to Z is labelling this a Timbaland track. Let the record state that this is a Timbaland edit, mix, remix, etc., but the song is and has always been by One Republic {and to be honest he didn’t change much, although he did make it better}. The Rooney track is fairly vanilla, aka the new less good sound of Rooney, and I feel as if they’re making the cut for these episodes simply because Alex Patsavas has a soft spot for the band {they also played an in show concert on The OC, whose music was also helmed by Patsavas}. The Sea Wolf is a brilliant choice and they recently appeared as number ten on my best albums of 2007. Toward the end avoid the song Secret by The Pierces at all costs. This is yet another musical choice for the show that I was tempted to simply ignore and refuse to blog about, but I figured someone out there would ask about it in the end. The entire track is terrible from beginning to end. It is relentless. Far better is the second track by The Pierces although it too has its moments of ear terror.
Ooh I love the Sea Wolf track but agree that the Secret track by the Pierces is way too repetative and gets quite annoying. Three Wishes isn’t all that bad though.
Great blog! good to catch up, regards amie
i agree with you lyss. three wishes is a much more complete sound than the abysmal effort that is secret. after the first ten seconds of secret i just want to curl up and die.
Hi from Donetsk, Ukraine. I am leaving comment here just to say thank you for this site, I am looking forward to reading more posts, hope it goes well, all the best, Jay.

You’re a STAR for putting this up. Just watched ep 10 and the music was fab. So was the episode!
Many thanks again, much appreciated!
hey…
i relly wany to download secret by the pierces
hey sharulz, the link to download all the songs at once is still available. if you really want secret by the pierces just download the file that has all the songs, then just delete the tracks you don’t like. and i’m pretty sure that the track you’re requesting will be your least favorite track in the mix.
