What was glees 500th musical number

So let's see Okay, so a handy calculator tells me that, on average, Glee has produced more than six musical performances per episode. Can that be right? The makers of Glee have chosen a version of Shout - in this case performed by New Directions - for performance No. I'm assuming the kids from Glee won't be as drunk as Bluto and the boys were when they were dancing and singing along with Shout - in that case performed by Otis Day and the Knights - in Animal House.

The new assignment for New Directions is a boys-versus-girls competition to perform songs from the movies. Glee exists now in kind of a TV middle ground that seems to be ever more populated in this uncertain era for the boob tube.

The ratings numbers for Glee are nowhere near where they used to be, particularly in the show's remarkable rookie season. But the truth is, if Glee were to be replaced at this particular juncture, it's almost a guarantee that whatever Fox replaced it with would do less well in the ratings.

So Glee just keeps going, neither the best show nor the worst show in the world, speaking to its specific audience in a language - signing and dancing and self-affirmation - that still carries weight for that group. So that was one of the hitting points for me, that wow, this is bigger than the sum of its parts.

I'm highly skeptical that Glee still is bigger than the sum of its parts. But for a brief time it truly was, and not many TV shows can make that boast. I hate this. If she does end up being pregnant…. That scene is awkward no matter who is in it. The scene is all together annoying until Marley imagines Ryder singing to her and kissing her as well. That is messed up. Jake storms off. As usual, Will says everyone won the competition, but the glee club literally freaks out and yells at him for always doing that.

Finn finally tells Will that he kissed Emma. Instead of hitting him, Will glares and walks off. Oh, that is so much better than if he had simply punched him. Not to mention the fact that the vocals were superb as well. Plus, the cuts to the cast goofing around were hilarious and adorable. You are commenting using your WordPress.

Less than a year and a half later the show has produced more performances covering songs ranging from classics such as Meatloaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Light," Broadway standards including " Being Alive " from Company, numerous Top 40 hits, and even Internet sensation "; Gangnam Style.

Proceeds from the downloads of "Shout" will be given to the Give a Note Foundation , which serves to expand and increase music education opportunities for kids.

The song quickly became one of Glee's most popular and it surpassed their iconic rendition of 'Don't Stop Belivein' as most downloaded, selling , digital copies. This season the song was reprised in an acoustic version that Criss arranged himself and sang live on set, rather than the normal prerecording and lip syncing that the show usually uses to produce their musical numbers.
