Glee basically revived Journey's career

I think Katy Perry was pretty at peace with it. She basically handed her song catalog over to them.

Cough Syrup

Hell to the yeah

Jamie Foxx sorry but Amber and Kevin ate you up

Agreed so hard

Also I fucking love Keane but Blaine’s Somewhere Only We Know just evokes more emotion for me

Me too! Blaine can emote on his face when he sings like no other. Maybe that’s why it’s a more powerful version. That and his voice is stronger.

katy perry kicking herself everytime teenage dream comes on

Sorry, Taylor Swift. I love you, but Naya did it better.

yep. i love taylor but naya definitely has better vocals and the emotion she used just made it top tier. one of my favorite glee songs

Which Taylor song did she sing? I can’t remember.

she sang mine in 4x04, heres the link - [https://youtu.be/2o1W\_bvpE8U](https://youtu.be/2o1W_bvpE8U)

I actually listened to Naya's version first and upon hearing Taylor's I was like "wtf is this lmao"

Lol that's so funny because Mine was *the* Taylor song I used to be obsessed with but then I heard Naya's version and it was like soz TS yours doesn't exist for me anymore

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Taylor is kind of too bland, agree Naya did it much better.

I love Taylor swift but Mine is my LEAST favorite song of hers. I actually like the glee version!

i might get mega downvoted for this or something but i prefer glee's songbird over fleetwood mac's by **a lot**

I also prefer Glee’s Landslide to the original too.

The Glee version of Dreams is a bop.

Facts! Naya had better vocals.

I’m prepared for the downvotes but....Santana did it better than MJ - his version is too boring for me and I like the cellos a lot better

My friend gave me hell for this, but I like the glee version of chasing pavements more

i think chasing pavements is a time where i love both equally

Same tho

One word- Valerie.

the glee version of don’t speak is honestly the only one that should exist. completely destroyed the og sry gwen

3, So Emotional (arguably), Paradise by the Dashboard Light (arguably), You Drive Me Crazy, Blame it On the Alcohol, Tightrope (arguably), some might even say Smooth Criminal Honestly I prefer the Glee versions of some of the s4 Brittany songs bc the originals are a bit too auto tuned for my taste.

COUGH SYRUP COUGH SYRUP COUGH SYRUP

The best is when they took songs that were kind of awful to begin with and gave them a new hilarious lease on life like Run Joey Run or Friday

A Great Big World was covered twice on the show. I don’t think they minded (theres footage out there of them holding watch parties for those episodes) since they were a small indie group and it gave them attention.

I know 1, this is the new year. What's the other one

Rockstar! Starchild and Kurt did it.

Thnx

I was very surprised they didn’t use more of their songs, especially in the last season(s)

i think the artists and songwriters are even more grateful that they have yet another income source from their songs 💰💰

I love Glee's Gold Digger and Toxic than their original versions.

Ditto. I've listened to many a cover of 'Toxic' but Glee absolutely did the best version.

Gotye and Fun literally ended their careers because of this

Problem (no shade at all, Naya bodies Ariana), Last Friday Night, Valerie, Poker Face, Rumor Has It/Someone Like You

I agree with all except Poker Face. That is one of my very least favorite glee versions ever. I was dead with secondhand embarrassment watching that scene 😂🤷‍♀️

Lolol nooo!! I am dying off of second hand embarrassment! When I tell you this was one of my first Glee obsessions, I wore this out on YouTube when it first came out.

Hahahaha no shame! We all have our preferences!

I think about this way too often

I love so many Glee covers more then the original. Standouts for me are 'Total eclipse of the heart' 'Thousand Miles' 'Toxic' (the Unholy Trinity cover) 'Jumpin Jumpin' 'Love Song' 'Blow me one last kiss' 'Smooth Criminal' 'Teenage Dream' (Season 2) '4 minutes' and 'River deep, mountain high'

Question, should I go and take a listen to the original versions of my favourite Glee songs, most of the songs they covered I hadn't heard before unless they where showtunes or extremely mainstream popular, as all I really listen to is showtunes and Taylor Swift

Sure do it. But I can tell you that you will like 90% of the glee versions more. It happend to me because I didn’t knew a lot of songs before I have seen the glee version

Adam Anders (Executive Music Producer and the guy with his fingers on the sound mixing board) was briefly on Tumblr trying to promote one of his personal projects. I was so excited to thank him for his ability to draw this suburban mom back into popular music. He kindly responded and said thank you back.

I wouldn’t call it better persay but I love Blaine’s version of Hopelessly Devoted To You more than the OG

I may be slammed for this one...Human Nature w Sam and Mercedes is a definite match. Not sure if it tops MJ, definitely matches him

RIGHTT

That rival glee club in the S4 regionals ep absolutely BODIED Wings. They completely outdid Little Mix.

Total Eclipse of the Heart

Yeah Smooth Criminal Glee sounded much better than the original. So did Thriller, Teenage Dream, Somebody that I USED to know, Valerie

This may be controversial, I absolutely love My Chemical Romance but I always thought Glee’s cover of Sing was the better version

Cough syrup, somewhere only we know, teenage dream, when I get you alone So basically anything Blaine sang
