My question is: What took them so long? I kid, but honestly, you knew a Gossip Girl soundtrack had to be coming because a) that's what good teen dramas do, and b) the show is as good at music as it is at one-liners.
So, the first Gossip Girl soundtrack has been compiled by The O.C.'s former music supervisor, Alexandra Patsavas (you know how I feel about her). OMFGG — Original Music Featured on Gossip Girl No. 1's 13 tracks will hit record store shelves near you on Oct. 28, and the album's also available online right now. It's generally a pretty good overview of the show's music, though it doesn't have the memorable "U.R.A. Fever," the song that's playing when Serena admits to murder.
The good folks of GG are also launching an entire site devoted to music on the show. I'm pretty excited for that site myself, because I rarely watch an episode without doing some searching for lyrics I heard.
Are you on your way to download the soundtrack? Are you excited for the new music site? I've got the track list after the jump — and super bonus Buzz respect and admiration goes to anyone who can figure out which song was played in which OMG moment last season. To check it out, just read more.

I love "Sour Cherry", the Kills are amazing!
1Oh man! Wheres the Linkin Hawk song from that VH1 90s Classic episode?? It was so catchy! I couldn't get that song out of my head for days! I was hoping it would be on the soundtrack.
2Haha, penguins268 — you know, the band is on tour now, so maybe we'll get a whole album from the Hawk!
3yay the kooks made the soundtrack
:)
4the music in 90210 was SO amazing- how long until their soundtrack comes out?
5Hopefully, Buzz, hopefully. But seriously, where is it!?!?
6Watching gossip girl got me hooked on The Virgins and Albert Hammond Jr.
7Die albert hammond Jr! You broke up the strokes!
8the music on gossip girl is so good. but ive already listened to it all on itunes because people have made play lists of it. so looks like i wont be buying this...
9Wow this soundtrack is amazing! Gossip Girl has already converted me to The Kills, Albert Hammond Jr., and The Virgins (in fact, I have songs by all of them on my project playlist right now).
10Loove it!
11soooo freakin excited!!
12One of the best things about the show is the music, so I definitely just downloaded it
.
13Penguin -- the lincoln hawk song, "everytime" comes as a bonus song with the CD on itunes!
14OMG Thank you so much!! I have to buy the whole album but I don't care! I want that song!
15Can't get it on the UK itunes store
!!! I want Everytime so so so bad!!!!!!
16Is it terrible that I couldn't wait and already downloaded most of these + company? Love their soundtrack-- even their promo songs are delicious (French slang song 'Ca Plane Pour Moi').
17You know you love me.
18XOXO
I like the Death Cab for Cutie - Ice is Getting Thinner song played during the wedding in Season 1. But I love the Sum 41 song - With Me. I think I love that more because it is the song that plays during the scene with Blair & Chuck in the limo... the song just fits.
19wow! exciting much? still, there are a few bands/songs that i would have loved to make the cut. like remember in the first episode: young folks by peter, bjorn and john ( i always mix up the sequence) and...i do remember reading in the books that nate likes the arctic monkeys (who i adore!!!). maybe they could have made it as well as panic at the disco's lying's the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off.
20ummm...they are missing a lot of gems of songs! did the person who made the list, put in every character's tastes into the soundtrack? that's what i suggest!
I love Gossip Girl, and the soundtrack looks great, especially the Ting Tings
21i've been looking for this song yet i havent found it.. do u know the song played when serena is on a train for the very first episode.. it starts with a hustle then a song.. all i could remember is: " i only think about tomorrow... " lyric... plz tell me.. email me!
22Do you mean Young Folks by Peter Bjorn and John?
23Huh.. When Serena admits the murder, the song isn't "URA Fever" but Hook & Line, by the Kills too.
24xoxo.
