Gossip Girl | Soundtrack Summer

Published: Aug. 30, 2020, 4:40 a.m.

Welcome to the Soundtrack Summer series, where we explore one collection of work each episode and break down how music affects both the fictional world and the viewer experience. Gossip Girl features numerous hit songs of the late aughts and early '10s, and many have made a lasting impact on pop music and stars as we know it. But how does a catchy and immediately recognizable song fit into a fictional narrative (however realistic)? Does their iconic nature help or hinder our belief in the world of the Upper East Side teenager? This episode also raised funds for The Bail Project! Streamed 7/10/2020.
