Last night proved to me why I am to proud to be a Gleek.
Every song had a storyline point. Every track is downloadable, which is why I bought them first thing this morning.
The show started with Rachael losing her voice on The Climb which I would have actually loved to have heard her sing for real because I think she would have blown it out of the water but still it worked for the impending storyline. Finn's rendition of Jessie's Girl blew me away and the fact that it was sung in front of the whole Glee club was fantastic. Rachael's face during the whole thing was simply priceless. But not to be outdone, Puck broke out Lady Is a Tramp and I wonder where was this guy earlier in the season? He sang it amazing and I didn't realize he could dance like that. Having Mercedes finish the song with him was perfect and having them get together was kinda cool. Especially since it lead to her and Santana busting The Boy is Mine. For those who never heard the original by Brandy and Monica, you don't realize how amazing this performance truly was. The original is a great duet and these girls blew it out of the water and I really thought that they were going to come to blows when it was over. Honestly I want to ignore the fact that Kurt sang Pink Houses because honestly it wasn't good and wasn't him at all. That's why the pay off of the storyline with his dad was simply perfect when he broke out Rose's Turn. The words were so dead on and perfect for him and reminded me why he is one of the most beloved openly gay men on tv. And in the tradition of this show, their version of One was simply fantastic.
More episodes like this leading up to Regionals on June 8th and it will be a great ride. Next week is the night Neal Patrick Harris is guesting and I can't wait to hear him and Will sing Dream On in context. This right now has to be the best show on TV by far.
