The Gossip Girl season concluded with a night of covers; everything from Oingo Boingo and The Jesus and Mary Chain, to a great rendition of Band of Horses “The Funeral” by Serena Ryder (Which is not available as a single!). The show may have jumped the shark with the season cliffhanger but at least the music was good.
