Usually my favorite song from a Glee episode is to be expected – a really big number, or a popular song choice I’ve been dying to hear from a certain character. But this time, in episode 10 “Yes/No”, my favorite happened to be a bit more of a subtle song choice: “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face”.
Not a big Rihanna fan, but “We Found Love” is one of my favorites of hers – and it’s one of my favorites that Glee covers as well. But something still felt a bit…off about the way the song was executed in the episode. Parts I liked, parts I didn’t like – so I thought I’d cover my own pros and cons to the number, just for fun.

Opening the episode with “Summer Nights”? Genius. Was the main reason I’d been looking forward to “Yes/No” musically, and everything about this Grease number exceeded my expectations. Keep reading…
Those lucky girls.
A Happy Christmahanukkwanza to all my fellow Gleeks out there! To celebrate, I thought I’d give the gift of Santana. Check out the totally awesome “Santa Baby” musical number that got cut from “Extraordinary Merry Christmas” (aw…) Keep reading…
My favorite Sectionals performance of New Directions was back in season 1, and this season’s Sectionals song choices weren’t exactly my favorite either (although their Jackson tribute was pretty fun). But “Hold on to Sixteen” pleasantly surprised me with its well written multi-plots, memorable character moments (I’m quickly but surely falling in love with Grant Gustin as Sebastian), and a couple musical gems that really were highlights of the entire episode, and possibly all of season 3.

Yesterday Glee: The Music, The Christmas Album Volume 2 hit stores, iTunes, and Gleeks’ holiday playlists, although you might have already listened to it streaming in full on AOL Music beforehand (shh…don’t tell).
Following in the fa-la-la footsteps of last year’s first Christmas album, you just know Volume 2 is going to be rockin’ and “extraordinary” to say the least. But in case you have a hard time deciding if you want to fork it over for the full CD (as if there was any doubt), I’ve put together a review for you guys of all the songs featured on the album – some holiday favorites from all your favorite cast members, including tracks featuring all four of The Glee Project winners!

While I’m not quite sure if it fit into the whole scope of episode 5, “The First Time”, the Warblers performing “Uptown Girl” was a huge Gleeky highlight for me. I even had the song on repeat hours before watching the episode. Keep reading…
Why is it always the Broadway-infused episodes of Glee that are simply the best? Everything about “The First Time” was as magical as Damian McGinty’s Rory the leprechaun in “Pot O’ Gold”. The episode was jam-packed with music and multiple character plots, and yet somehow escaped the common Glee tragedy of being rushed. Keep reading…
Psst…guess what? AOL came up with a holiday present for us Gleeks, and it’s genius! We can listen to Glee The Music, The Christmas Album Volume 2 in its entirety before it even comes out. That’s sweeter than getting candy cane slusheed. Keep reading…
