I think a lot of people underestimate the power a specific song can have over a scene in a film or TV series. This clip is one of my favorite scenes from Gossip Girl largely because the song playing behind it perfectly fits the heartbreak of the moment. It’s also how I found “Signs” by Bloc Party which is one of my very favorite songs to this day. Hope you enjoy:
