Glee Teaser! Somebody to Love – VIDEO
The Glee kids, now at the required 12 members to compete in Nationals (thanks to the cheerios and football players who wised up and signed up) perform Queen’s “Somebody to Love.”
The video is just a snippet, the entire performance will be featured on this week’s Glee. It looks like it’s gonna be epic. Tune in this Wednesday, at 9 pm on Fox to watch. I can’t wait.
Buy GLEE music on iTunes:
thanks kirsten



Money Tree pop up with audio
This looks really good. I haven’t had the chance to watch this show yet. But, can someone tell me if these are supposed to be high school kids? Some of them sure look older.
Lea Michele, from Spring Awakening.

OMG I love this cheesy show! My fav is Kurt but just love all the snarkyness, and the music. Can’t wait till Wednesday:)
Oh man, thanks MJ. I’ve been eagerly anticipating the “Somebody to love” perfomance. The studio version is just stunning. I can’t wait to see it on Wednesday. I’m so excited!
Way too addicted to this cheesy show.
They better not cut Artie’s vocals when they air this on the TV show. His parts were very good on the full-length version.
ETA: But… based on the live version from the upfronts, that’s probably what will end up on the episode. All Finn and Rachel and Mercedes.
Need I stress that I love Glee? I’ve been waiting for this particular song. I love to sing it, much to the chagrin of my family and friends.
Wow, this is fantastic. The live version is too.
And it’s just another reminder that Freddie Mercury was a freaking genius.
Two things make this show work. Tone and talent. The writing isn’t always even and the first few episodes stumbled here and there, but the show is getting smart by maintaining a surreal / alterna-reality sorta tone, as MJ wrote. And the kids on this show are just crazy talented. These are kids I’d watch sing just about anything. How they got them all on one show was a coup. And Jane Lynch, well, she is a treasure. I’ve been a fan of hers for years and in Sue she has found her perfect “mainstream” type. If she isn’t at least nominated for an Emmy next year, I’ll send hate mail to every academy member.
Indeed, this show is addicting. When the pregnancy plot jumped at me, I thought, “What the heck?” I’ll watch and anxiously await for the musical and dance numbers. It’s a crazy little thing called love.
Here are a couple of Promos for next week:
FOX
Global (warning: spoilers about Kristin’s character).
LOL at Finn’s line about “old people joining Glee”. The show can be pretty meta that way. You just know the writers gleefully assigned that line to him (actor is 27).
Kristen-Thanks
Add on the info Kristen will sing “Last Name’” from Carrie Underwood…(imdb dot com)
I think this is her singing too on “Maybe This Time”: Amazon MP3 Clip
Looks to be an epic episode for songs last week (to make up for the dearth of singing this week?)
And notice that she’s wearing Football Jersey Number 20 in the Fox clip…
LOL, good catch on the jersey #, Kirsten. That’s Puck’s number. Another cougar for him, I guess.
I can’t WAIT for this episode! Is it Wednesday yet?
I’m so strangely obsessed with this show that I’m freakin myself out!! I totally love everything about and I’m happy that you’re covering it on here mj! Now there’s a place I can find all the good links!
That Global promo looked crazy….I can’t flippin wait!!
Every number makes me wish they had put more effort into the casting. Lea Michele is just way to far above the rest of the cast in vocals. Somebody to Love really makes this standout. Cory Monteith (Finn) just doesn’t come close to cutting it as male lead vocals.
Count me as another one obsessed with Glee. It’s unlike anything I’ve seen on a tv show.
Somebody To Love is probably my 2nd favorite Queen song after Bohemian Rhapsody, and that’s saying something! Can’t wait for this episode

Thanks for posting MJ! Your blog is the source for news about almost everything on entertainment that I care about.
Yep, love this show. Campy, creative and a decent attitude towards alternative lifestyles. I’m a fan. Thanks for posting on this show, MJ. So far, I’ve loved all the renditions of the shows they have taken on.
I think that’s the point, though. How would the storyline of Rachel being better than everyone else work if she WASN’T better than everyone else. This show may thrive on surrealism and exaggeration in almost everything, but I think the thing that makes it work IS the cast, in each actor’s and thus, character’s, imperfections.
Because realistically, there is no “perfect” showchoir, where everyone is a Rachel Berry. Every showchoir has those one or two standout singers/performers who get all the solos. Even with the exaggerated storylines and typical surrealistic feel in some of the scenes, this is still the most accurate representation of any REAL showchoir that I’ve ever seen depicted on tv or in movies.
I understand your POV, but I don’t agree. For me, it wouldn’t be nearly as interesting if everyone was a classically trained, perfect singer. I LOVE Lea Michele and think she has an incredible voice, but I also love seeing the way the writers flesh out the other characters, and their struggles with realizing that they CAN do it, even if they aren’t as good as Rachel.
I however don’t like Rachel’s voice. My favorite numbers must have to be Bust your windows and I wanna sex you up. Puck’s is one hottie boy. I love him!!!!!
I’m so hooked on this show. Can’t wait for the next episode.
mj, maybe you could open up chat for “Glee” nights?
