There's going to be a lot a lot a lot out there on it...but I just want the music performances, so I'm going to embed them all here for my and your enjoyment.

While we wait for the denizens of the internet to upload the videos I'm just going to post this picture for you:<br />

PERIOD.Glee has finally returned to us, the wait felt eternal and now that it's come I'm ready for the next one already. I think all of the promos for "Hell-o" kinda messed up my viewing experience. I'd already heard some of the best lines, knew that Rachel was pissed at Finn and then during the last song I already had it in my mind being one way, so Rachel's turmoil felt uncomfortable to me. That said, I'm super happy it's back and am going to avoid watching teasers, promos and advance-release clips and numbers from the show. I want to experience it the way they intended for viewers, not through the lens of the FOX publicity machine.<br />
<br />
Alright, song #1<br />
Hello - The Doors - Finn<br />

It was a really cute moment to see Finn singing to Tina towards the end of the song.<br />
Sidenote: I interviewed Ray Manzarek of The Doors (he's the keyboard player and without him The Doors would not exist) and he was really nice, but kinda post-age-of-Aquarius crazy. Still very much for hallucinogenics...about acid he literally said "...and it opened the doors of my mind."<br />
<br />
Gives You Hell - Rachel<br />

Even though I'd seen this one already it was still super-satisfying. You agree? Love watching Harry dance and everyone jumping in to sing and then the shouting/singing thing at the end was great, great, grrrrrrrrrrreat!<br />
<br />
Hello - Jesse & Rachel - crappy tv-to-cam recording:<br />

I have a hard time listening to anything by Lionel Richie. When I was a kid my mom played his albums so repetitively I could play them by ear on the piano. Confession: It just reminds me of when I had a really bad haircut and horrible red-framed glasses. I knew this song would be in the episode and was therefore kinda not looking forward to the moment.<br />
<br />
Highway to Hell - Jesse St. James & Vocal Adrenaline - another crappy tv-to-cam:<br />

<br />

This was so painful to watch...Rachel suffering through the whole thing.<br />
<br />
Sneak peek of Vogue - Sue Sylvester:<br />

And here is what I'll say about this. It's awesome, truly, but I wanted to see it in context of the episode. I know it has to do with the "Mercedes is black, I'm gay, we make culture." "How do you two not have a show on Bravo." thing...but I DON'T WANNA KNOW UNTIL I SEE IT FOR REALZ DURING THE EPISODE.<br />
<br />
I guess I just have to be better at blocking out all promos/spoilers/pre-released performances until after I see the episodes. During the hiatus I was so Glee-hungry I'd seek out and watch and find anything, but now I'm going old school and mandating for myself "no snacks between meals."<br />
<br />
That said, MADONNA EPISODE NEXT WEEK!!!! I may listen to a ton of old school Madonna just to get excited about it...<br />
<br />
Show notes:<br />
1. Seeing a shot from the pilot of Rachel/Lea in the here's-what-you-missed "if you live in a cave or just got out of prison" made me notice that she's lost weight/gotten in better shape. Makes sense, it's like the American Idol effect...tons of activity mixed with tons of (mostly good) stress = transformation into a lean, mean fighting machine.<br />
2. Still during the catch up: "Rachel loves that she and Finn are the Glee club's new power couple" - WTF, I hate when shows go on hiatus and then take away something we would really want to see, like how Rachel and Finn became a couple. Obviously she just started assuming it and the emotionally comatose Finn didn't have it in him to participate in the choice, but still...they're our Ross/Rachel-Dawson/Joey-Felcity/Ben-Pam/Jim-Meredith/Derrick-Ned/Chuck-Luke/Lorelai...we wanted to see them get together for goodnesssakessss!<br />
3. Love that they used "Don't Rain On My Parade" to score the first scene!<br />
4. Credits don't have Heather or Naya under starring, they're still guest stars even though they totally dominate the episode.***<br />
5. Some time when you're watching an episode for the 5th time pay attention to the kids in the background. There are always a TON of Cheerios in the background of every shot. You'd think they have 175 Cheerios in the school...<br />
6. Sue is horrrrrrible to blackmail Figgins like that! She's so good she makes us want to throttle her!<br />
7. Is Puck's mohawk wider than before? Before it was like the width of a mountain bike tire...not it seems like the width of a dirt bike one.<br />
8. Puck & Quinn's only lines in the episode were pretty great:<br />
<i>P: "I'm not breaking up with you, I'm just saying please stop super-sizing cause I don't dig on fat chicks."<br />
Q: "I'm pregnant."<br />
P: "That's my fault?" </i> Weeeeeheehee!<br />
9. Love that Tanaka gained "40 pounds and stopped showering."<br />
10. Sue really cut off that dudes ponytail. Where's the interview with THAT guy? I love when she hands the ponytail to the confused Cheerio.<br />
11. Loved the answer the phone lines "no she's dead, this is her son," but I had already heard that bit in the promos, so it took away from the in-context joy of it.<br />
12. Rachel's line "I have a slushie stained training bra to prove it" slipped by me the first time because I was thinking the last thought. I love the idea that she still wears a training bra. The thing about high school kids that people often forget is that not that much time has passed since they were in elementary and middle school, so some vestiges of those parts of their lives often stick with them...childhood toys, training bras, etc. I see this type of awareness from the writers all the time and really appreciate it.<br />
13. Jayma is realllllly good at creating the romantic tension. She reacts the way we feel inside during those types of moments.<br />
14. The scene where Sue is berating Brittany and Santana is one of the funniest... "I'd ask you to commit Sepuku" "We were seduced by the glitz and glamor of show biz" "let me drop some knowledge on you" - although Sue was a bit misguided in thinking that Rachel would lose her mind if the girls went after Finn.<br />
15. I love when Mr. Schu invests in his kids the way he did with Finn during the "finding yourself"/Jim Morrison scene. I also think it's another true-to-life thing - when people are going through a positive change they often immediately translate it in to helping another person with their new found knowledge. Good job writers!<br />
16. During the basketball scenes Finn's upper arms looked green...like they did a terrible job in makeup covering up tattoos. He does have tattoos, right?<br />
17. They're really playing up that Brittany/Santana sex thing, eh? Walking around holding hands by the pinkies...<br />
18. Rachel & Finn breaking up was well done.<br />
19. Mr. Schuester laying down the law after "Gives You Hell" was fine to move along the plot, but "Glee club is in jeopardy" plot-line can ONLY happen this season. They're going to need to find another device next season cause I don't think we have the tolerance for it beyond Regionals.<br />
20. Jesse St. James saying "you totally lacked Barbara's emotional depth, but you're talented" was kinda awesome for a couple of reasons. We all know she didn't, but there's this veil of reality where in their world she isn't supposed to be quite as good as the way we see her on TV...she'd never gotten any part she'd auditioned for, etc. Also, she's insecure, so the simultaneous "insult-n-compliment" pickup technique worked perfectly on her. (Boys don't be assholes and use this one in real life. It's crap.)<br />
21. Santana & Brittany are totally right that Puck is hot and Finn is just cute. I love when they call out stuff that's true in real life too.<br />
22. I <3'd how Brittany responded, "Finn, that's mean" when he said Rachel was kinda cool. ("dolphins are just gay sharks" was equally hiarious) I think they need to be careful about how they use Brittany. They know that there was a huge response to her and that everyone loves her, but there's a chance they could overuse her now instead of leaving us wanting more.
23. The "Hello Again" song by Neil Diamond blech. I can't stand this song.
24. OMG EMMA IS A VIRGIN. TOOOOOOOOOOOOO AWESOME. And so heartbreaking.
25. The exercise ball scene where Sue is punishing the girls pretty great too. Looking back the scenes with the three of them are always solidly hilarious.
26. Was Idina Menzel super-botoxed or was she intentionally making her character flat-n-stiff? And um, Will IS a mess to be making out with her. WHAT ABOUT EMMA? I get it, I get it, from married with a baby-on-the-way to separated/fake baby is a mind-eff and erratic behavior is to be expected. OH! My husband, who ain't so up on his Broadway trivia (thank God) said "she really looks like Rachel." I got to give him the fullll rundown on her: people wondered if she'd play Rachel's birth mother since she's got two gay dads, Idina was in the original Broadway casts of Rent and Wicked, and she played the Patrick Dempsey's fiance in "Enchanted"...she's the one who went to the cartoon land at the end. Now there's two things she SHOULD have sung in and didn't - Enchanted and this episode of Glee.
27. McKinley High Old Maids Club whoa boy...doesn't seeing a scene like this make you think about the actresses who auditioned for the part of "highly unattractive girl"? Sidenote, the black girl next to Rachel actually played a cheerleader on "Heroes," and you can kinda tell a lot of what they did to make the girls look terrible had to do with hair/mu/wardrobe, and you do have to have a thick skin in Hollywood, but it's gotta be internalized for at least a couple of those girls. Awesome lines: "now I spend my Friday nights making out with my cat and watching Ghost Whisperer," (that girl is going to be in an upcoming TV movie with Nikki Blonsky about girls at a fat camp) (Sue's lines) "if i weren't ignoring what these ladies were saying out of an overwhelming sense of deeeep repulsion..." and "you have to become more narcissistic and self-centered than you already are."
28. Terri got some Botox or Juvaderm or somethinggggg during the hiatus. You noticed she looked extra "fresh" and youthful right? Aside from that, she did an awesome job being vindictive during the confrontation with Emma. Jessalyn and Jayma are two of the best dramatic actors on the show.
29. Jonathan Groff reminds me of the actor who plays Evan Chambers on "Greek." Anyone else?
30. Early on in the episode, I think during the library scene, I said to my husband, "wow, this could be realllly bad for Rachel, being dumped by Finn, then falling in love with Jesse only to have him screw her..." then she flat out tells him this on the Vocal Adrenaline stage...then he looks at Ms. Corcoran (Idina Menzel) when he kisses Rachel. Either they're scheming, he's got a vendetta against his coach or they're sleeping together AND scheming. I'm guessing it's just the first thing, but maybe the last?
31. I always love when Emma distills things down to the emotional core like in the scene where she breaks up with Will, "how is you compromising yourself for my crazy any different than you doing it for hers?" Oh, and the heartbreak! This poor girl! A virgin and OCD and so sweet and wonderful. I want her to win. I want her to be able to get "messy." I love her.
32. What's Rachel mean when she says, "I ended it with Jesse, <b>you can spread the word, I know you know how to do that<i></i></b>"? Regardless, now we're set up back at square one of the longing and tension between them again. Emotional reset button! Except now the tables are turned.<br />

How 'bout the chick from True Blood being Candace Dystra. "They weren't singing, they were like honking..."<br />
<br />
The only not awesome thing about the episode was Eve's lame acting...and the soft pretzel craving it gave us.<br />
<br />
Terri coming clean with the truth of what she was experiencing kinda made me want to give her another chance in the future, which is good, because I know she's going to be back. She does need to pay some penance though...<br />
<br />
Principal Figgins schooling Sue Sylvester was awesome. "My word is official. Let it be written."<br />
<br />
"Get ready to board the Sue Sylvester Express. Destination HORROR."<br />

<br />
Favorite lines of the episode:<br />
Brittany about Patches the homeless guy outside the library who was a former Glee club kid shown in the Thunderclap: "he barks at my mom"<br />
"I could use a lieutenant, I have over 65 proposals." Rachel on adding a Glee club co-captain<br />
<br />
Most potential prophetic statement, especially since all of the eps were in the can before the show went on the air:<br />
Rachel before shooting the commercial: "guys, I want us to always remember this moment. Soon there may be agents and managers and movie deals, but right now I want us to remember what it feels like to be here together as a team."<br />
<br />
The fight that Will and Terri have towards the end of the episode is some for real acting...and was really well done.<br />
Quinn's standing up to Sue Sylvester was where she turned a corner to human...(so says my husband).I'm Just A Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15917217806584647153noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743210317083241841.post-45876934442499015262010-04-09T16:48:00.000-07:002010-04-09T16:53:55.081-07:00Hairography ... aka "The Art of Distraction"Sometimes a guest star isn't as bright as the regular cast, and that was the case IMO with Eve. They should have gotten someone with some comedy experience who was at her star-power level.<br />

Wasn't that moment with Finn and his mom after the song really nice and lovely? I'll stop saying that now because there were a ton of scenes with great acting and heart in this episode.<br />
<br />

Emma was too good in this scene...and Rachel's takeaway from the song was brilliant:<br />
"Yes, it means I'm very young and it's very hard for you to stand close to me."<br />
<br />

General show comments:<br />
--Based on the depiction of Quinn's parents, someone on the writing staff clearly grew up in a WASPy family in New England. The prop department failed though because WASPs don't drink pink wine.<br />
--Wasn't in love with the concept of Suzy Pepper, but loved that they cast Everwood's Sarah Drew. When this Glee aired she was also doing a stint on Grey's Anatomy at the same time, so she had a good October/November '09 for sho.<br />
--The "More Than Words" soundtrack while Suzy ate the superhot pepper was awesome. Anyone else have angst/swoon-ey high school memories attached to that song? I do.<br />
--Wiping the tears from Lean On Me.<br />

The beauty of this is not lost on me...dad spends time with daughter creating youtube videos of songs she heard on Glee, she'll probably not get pregnant.<br />

Time for some Vitamin D in the middle of winter.Please forgive me for deserting you. I got a little disheartened by the Kristen Chenoweth episode. For some reason I felt like it was just taking the show in the wrong direction. She's so awesome, they could have made more out of her. Anyway, after that I got really busy, like working 90 hours a week busy, and then I got laid off, and now we're in a Glee drought, so I'm going to get this blog caught up to speed while we wait an interminably long time for Glee to return on Tuesday, April 13th.<br />
<br />
Anyway, let's begin where we left off with Vitamin D - the D being for DRUGS or Dextroamphetamine. The episode where Terry comes to spy on Will and takes a job as the school nurse only to drug all of the kids with the same drug in the diet pills she took in high school. And the kids. The kids are being lazy in Glee club so Will makes them compete against each other boyz-against-gurlz and here's what happens:<br />
It's My Life / Confessions Part II<br />

BTDubz, this girl takes requests...let's get her to sing another song that Glee did.<br />
<br />
So this girl has a studio mic in her office...and did Maybe This Time b/c Kristin & Lea did it on Glee. I'm not sure that I believe that this is the first time she's heard this song. She's too good and too clearly experienced with musical theater.<br />

Don't bother watching this whole thing...but I think it's funny that a dog watches TV/Glee and that the owner thought it was worthwhile to videotape a dog staring at the Glee-playing-TV for like 5 minutes.<br />

So, I accidentally saw a clip from tonight's episode...there are 3 of them out there and I don't recommend you find them. They're too awesome and I think that it'll just take away from the specialness of watching the show in entirety.<br />
<br />
Till tomorrow.<br />

Plus my poor hoooband is sick and I had to go to a screening of Whip It (it's pretty good), so Glee night was canceled at my house. (That'll be a one time only cancellation)<br />
<br />
Anyways, I heart Kurt Hummel tons...and he was such a sweet love when he came out to his dad. They're so different, but he's his dad and he just wants his love. And his dad loves him and it was lovely.<br />
<br />
The stuff Sue Sylvester is pulling with getting Sandy back to get Rachel away from Glee club reminds me of Hollywood, so I'm guessing that the writers were injecting some of their own emotional experience into that storyline.<br />
<br />
And Rachel...sigh. She'll be battling her ego demons as long as...well...probably forever.<br />

Holla!<b>Part of today's press release about the show:</b><br />
FOX has ordered a full season of the critically acclaimed comedy GLEE, it was announced today by Kevin Reilly, President, Entertainment for Fox Broadcasting Company.<br />
<br />
“The response we’ve received to GLEE has been remarkable,” said Reilly. “It’s already got the makings of a cultural phenomenon. I’ve seen all 13 episodes, and Ryan Murphy, his team and the talented GLEE cast have knocked our socks off with their incredible work. We’re happy to pick up this gem of a show, and can’t wait to see what they’ll do with the rest of the season.”<br />
<br />
“It’s fantastic to be the first show picked up and that this underdog series, like its characters, will get the chance to keep singing,” said series co-creator/executive producer Ryan Murphy. “There are so many more stories to tell. We’re grateful for the incredible passion shown by everyone involved – the unbelievable fans, the cast, crew, our partners at the network and studio and even music artists and labels.”<br />
<br />
In the next episode of GLEE, airing Wednesday, Sept. 23 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT), Kurt (Chris Colfer) takes center stage when he tries out for the football team in order to impress his dad. Sandy (guest star Stephen Tobolowsky) and Sue (Jane Lynch) join forces to carry out their plans for disbanding the Glee Club. Meanwhile, Quinn (Dianna Agron) and Finn’s (Cory Monteith) relationship is tested when they receive some life-changing news.I'm Just A Girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15917217806584647153noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-743210317083241841.post-83175281630564628522009-09-19T09:09:00.000-07:002010-03-29T15:43:20.086-07:00Whaddya Say to Celine Dion?

I thought to myself, "This is the first new episode I've seen, what if it's disappointing in some way, what if it doesn't live up to the 3 I've seen so far? What if they take it in a direction I'm not crazy about?"<br />
<br />
Within 5 minutes my fears were confirmed. <br />
<br />
By the end I kinda got past it though...<br />
<br />
I wasn't too keen on Mr. Schuester getting distracted away from Glee club this quickly. In the pilot he was bogged down by the pressure to provide for his baby-on-the-way and abandoned the kids, now he's reacting to his dad talking about "having guts" to follow a dream, Rachel criticizing his choreography and Quinn pointedly asking him if he'd ever performed after high school. And how does he react? Emotionally withdrawing from Glee club and chasing his lost dream of being a performer himself, with the benefit of male bonding, sex and adoration from the wife, a small feeling of success and the avoidance of dealing with the complicated feelings of being hurt by kids who shouldn't be able to hurt him and the huge challenge ahead to make the Glee club into a contender at regionals. <br />
<br />
Alrighty, here is where I will give the show credit - they are very good at showing the audience the ways that the littlest things in a person's life can affect them deeply and change the course they're on. I just wasn't ready for Mr. Schuester to abandon the kids so quickly. Think about how that'll affect them? Are they going to be able to easily forgive and keep trusting him so completely? If I was one of those kids I'd be waiting for him to bail again.<br />
<br />
<b>So here are the songs from the show:</b><br />
<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=129645371&s=143441">For He’s A Jolly Good Fellow</a> – into – <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=85723&s=143441">This is how we do it (Montell Jordan)</a> - it ain't up yet...but this cover of This Is How We Do It is:<br />

<br />
The video never came up online, probably b/c it's less of a song and more of a segment of the episode: (update, it's still not up, so I put up the recap that has the scene in there)<br />

<br />
Poison (as in <i>that girl is</i>) (Bel Biv Devoe) – didn’t think Ken Tanaka or Howard Bamboo, the guy from the Sheets-N-Things would be able to sing, but hey, they can...<br />

<br />
<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=330024787&s=143441">Mercy</a> – Vocal Adrenaline – IMO, cheap. I want to see the Glee kids sing dammit. Imagine Mercedes or Rachel or Tina singing the lead on this...or Artie. Comedy gold. Of course I got it "I'm begging you for mercy, mean choreographer Dakota Stanley" but MORE NEW DIRECTIONS PLEASE AND THANK YOU!:<br />

<br />
<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?id=330024786&s=143441">Bust Your Windows</a> – looks like they’ll have 1 song an ep that breaks the rule of “the kids don’t just break out in song to express their feelings like in HS Musical” - this one was in the form of a fantasy. Interestingly, instead of tapping their feet and grooving their heads the boys who were watching over here just felt it important to discuss how much $$ this scene must have cost to shoot.<br />

<br />
I Wanna Sex You Up - most satisfying song of the show...Puck made his singing debut and joined the Acafellas to gain more access to the cougars than just his pool business could supply. I’m fairly certain it worked...in real life. When you watch, in the beginning of the song don't be blinded by the Matthew Morrison juice, pay attention to Sandy Ryerson, he's really funny:<br />
<object width="400" height="226"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/YFzBstPdsBM&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/YFzBstPdsBM&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="226"></embed></object><br />
Um, how awesome is the shot of Puck then Sue Sylvester reacting to him? Superawesome.<br />
Then Sue not standing up during the standing ovation was beauty incarnate.<br />
<br />
Other bits I must mention:<br />
We got to see some good Finn stuff...calling Rachel out, Rachel calling him out, his supereagerness to have a relationship with Mr. Shu... All that was good and enjoyable. I think I'm starting to see why ppl think Frankenteen is a star.<br />
<br />
The Mercedes-Kurt-I’m-Gay scene was lovely...and while the speech by Mercedes is a little trite, it’s the point of the show...expressing what’s really inside you and having a place to be yourself.<br />
<br />
Daktota Stanley...In case you kinda sorta recognize him, I'll give credit where it's due, my friend Cayce called it, Whit Hertford WAS the kid brutal in the beginning of Jurassic Park. Ringing any bells?<br />
<br />
Lastly, let's discuss the fact that VICTOR-broadway-GARBER DID NOT SING A LICK...WTH? He did a good job making me believe he was a man who had not taken charge of his dreams and was weaker for it though. I hope he comes back and sings at some point. (And drunkenmummy was adorable) (Josh Groban hitting on her was kinda funny too)<br />
<br />
I jotted down some notable lines from the show:<br />
MOST DISAPPOINTING LINE: “okay, from the top” - I thought we’d get to see the kids do a flipping flapping freaking fracking song....argh<br />
<br />
The rest of the quotes are just plain good:<br />
Sandy, we voted, and when you’re in the group it’s creepy.<br />
-Will<br />
<br />
See anyone else with a plate of "I’m sorry" cookies? I don’t, just you.<br />
Finn to Rachel<br />
<br />
Have you ever been kissed by anyone? - Mercedes<br />
Yes, if by "someone" you mean the tender crook of my elbow. -Kurt<br />
<br />
And I didn’t have to show any of them my bosoms. -Will's mom<br />
Honey, why don’t you go get yourself a Sanka. - Will's dad<br />
<br />
The way you use your mental illness to help these kids is inspiring. I’m shocked you’re not married.<br />
-Sue to Emma<br />
<br />
Artie, you’re cut, you’re not trying hard enough. -Dakota<br />
At what? -Artie<br />
At walking. -Dakota<br />
<br />
You’re freakishly tall. I feel like a woodland creature. -Dakota Stanley<br />
<br />
Let’s roll Artie. -Tina<br />
<br />
I’m going to have to ask you to smell your armpits. <br />
-Sue Sylvester to Quinn & Santana Lopez<br />
<br />
I’m revoking your tanning privileges for the rest of the semester.<br />
Sue Sylvester to Quinn & Santana Lopez<br />
(BTW, anyone else confused when Santana started weeping? I thought she was naturally that color. That's obvi the joke.)<br />
<br />
Miss Sylvester, I want to thank you. -Quinn<br />
For what. -Sue Sylvester<br />
For teaching me a valuable life lesson. When you really believe in yourself, you don’t have to bring other people down. -Quinn<br />
...but reallllly that was a thank you to Rachel...and maybe we’ll see the girls become friends.<br />

I get it, but come on, we just want to enjoy the songs from show...no one is making any $ from this and everyone can tell the difference between a fan video and an internet scam trying to make money. And no one who wants to watch the entire show is going to not buy it from iTunes just because the videos of just the songs are online...blah.<br />
<br />
ANYWAYZ....here is part of a press release about new musics on iTunes:<br />
<i><b>Beginning today and continuing every Tuesday</b>, Columbia Records and Twentieth Century Fox Television will release select songs featured in the upcoming episode of GLEE for fans to purchase and download on iTunes. Today’s new releases include the GLEE cast’s versions of <b>Jazmine Sullivan’s “Bust Your Windows” and Grammy Award winner Duffy’s “Mercy.”</b> “Bust Your Windows” and “Mercy” join seven songs already available on iTunes, including “Don’t Stop Believin’,” which shot up to No. 1 after the GLEE preview event in May.<br />
<br />
<b>With only two episodes broadcast, GLEE has an incredible five songs in the iTunes Top 200</b>: RACHEL BERRY’s (Lea Michele) version of the Rihanna hit “Take a Bow,” WILL SCHUESTER’s (Matthew Morrison) take on Kanye West’s “Gold Digger,” FINN HUDSON’s (Cory Monteith) performance of REO Speedwagon’s “Can’t Fight This Feeling” and the Glee Club’s renditions of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” and Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It.”<br />
<br />
GLEE airs Wednesdays (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. <b>A special encore broadcast of tomorrow night’s episode will air Friday, Sept. 18 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT).</b><br />
<br />
<b>On Tuesday, Nov. 3, Columbia Records and Twentieth Century Fox Television will release “Glee: The Music, Volume 1,” the first in a series of soundtracks that feature some of the music heard in the first season</b> of the critically acclaimed series on FOX. “Glee: The Music, Volume 1” will feature spectacular renditions of several chart-topping hits, including Queen’s “Somebody to Love” and Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline.”</i><br />
<br />
Yeah, so the fact that Glee has 5 songs in the iTunes Top 200 just tells me that little Glee song videos online are NOT GOING TO HURT THEIR PROFITS...it'll only get people more invested in the show. Being jerky/overprotective will just frustrate fans. And I do get all of the legal issues, I get it, I get it.
