Woman On The Verge is a pretty hefty episode, and the music choices are as varied as the emotions and roles that each character takes on. The sounds of jazz and soothing melodies paired with touching lyrics fill the silence. As a bonus, GG band, Lincoln Hawk plays a cover of Pieces of Me by Song and Wagner. The band is playing the song at the very end of the episode, when Georgina has left the concert with Dan and the rest of the gang arrives at the concert to confront her.

There are more songs paired to Georgina scenes in this episode than any other. At the very beginning of the episode there is a montage of Georgina trying to repeatedly get a hold of Serena and phoning her non stop. During the montage Cities In Dust by Junkie XL featuring Lauren Rocket plays and leads into the scene where Lily begins to search Serena’s room. When Georgina lies to Dan in order to get him to leave with her and dispel any rumors, Stay by Lisa Loeb plays in the background.

Strong music follows Serena as she goes through her revelation of and then deals with the secret she has kept for a year. When Serena’s mom finds and plays the sex tape that Georgina was using to blackmail Serena, Off the Wall by Cham Pain begins. As the sex tape continues and Lily keeps watching Hook and Line by The Kills gets louder and louder. The same song returns later when Serena reveals her story and cries over the kiss that Dan and Georgina shared.

Finally, when Blair and Chuck treat Serena like the friend she is and come to her defense at Lily and Bart’s rehearsal dinner, Fight Song by Republic Tigers plays. Jazz can be heard in the background later when Blair informs Lily that what Serena needs is a mother and not a discipliner.
