What’s YOUR favorite “Glee” performance? Let us know below, and check out our video of the Top 10 Most Underrated Glee Performances - ruclips.net/video/p3IlV-zZtDE/видео.html
I recently watched S6. Technically, for the second time, as I was watching glee when it aired, but post-The Quarterback through the series finale, I more or less zoned out if it didn't involve Brittana. That being said, I had so little memory of S6 as a whole. Anyways... back on track, yes, after actually watching-watching S6, I thought the same thing about how under utilized Heather was.
After working with Beyonce on Single Ladies, the world knew the woman could dance... the Britney episodes just made me appreciate her as the triple threat she is.
WORD. I still go watch that performance from time to time because it's so flipping good! That one and "Run the World (Girls)" are two absolutely killer performances well worth re-watching.
I don't think they knew what to do with her character. First she was just another bitchy cheerleader, then an idiot, then a genius. Toward the end of the series, I imagine the writers' room was like the South Park episode where the government decides how to fix the economy with a headless chicken, a gameboard and a kazoo.
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen someone dance like Heather Morris. Insane dancer. Insane talent. I loved the inclusion of I feel pretty/unpretty. Really raw and emotional. Excellent list overall.
Heather Morris is so talented a dancer that she was thrown off Dancing With the Stars for being to professional. Yet they let two Olympic ice Dance champions, which is basically ballroom dancing on ice, compete as stars and one of them won the mirrorball. Heather is truly amazing.
Rumor Has It/Someone Like You is my absolute favorite mash-up!!!!!!!!! I totally thought Thriller/Heads Will Roll would be number one, but anything with Brittney makes me happy.

i am glad that "bad romance" at least got an honorable mention because that song is honestly one of the best vocal arrangements the show ever did. naya on the bridge still gives me chills every single time i listen to the repetition of "i don't wanna be friends" that builds up. (also, personally, "me against the music" was more iconic than "i'm a slave 4 u" but i will admit that they nailed the visuals.)
Thank you for making Brittany number one! Let's be honest no one could've done that episode or number the way Heather did. I started to think who else could've done it and I started crying.
Every top 10 lists for Glee constantly remind me how great this show is. Thank you for posting close to the anniversary of the loss of Naya. A beautiful talent. ❤
Love that this list gives the spotlight to some of the other characters. Santana, Mercedes, Brittany etc were all so talented. Of course Lea is a phenomenal singer, but I think most fans got a little fed up of the incessant Rachel bias. Anyway, my favourite Glee performance is The Scientist. It’s the one song where I think everyone shines so perfectly.
Teenage Dream was so good but the Umbrella/Singing in the Rain is nothing but iconic! That would’ve been my number one This makes me want to watch the whole series again!
A tribute for the three month anniversary of discovering your channel. Thank you. The Adele mash-up is so well mixed together and professionally made. I just shows you don't have to be extravagant to make an impression.
So glad my favorite number came in at #3, but you missed an opportunity to credit the guest appearance of 2CELLOS. Referring to them as just a couple of cello players demeans their credit as the world-wide phenomenon. Either way, great list!
All of Britney’s performances were just amazing. Run the world from Glee is still iconic but for sure the Britney episode is iconic. Her duet with Santana was phenomenal
I loved most of Naya's and Amber's performances on ths show ( RIP Naya😭) and their duos are just SO GOOD. But I AM SO HAPPY we are finally talking about Naya and Grant's version of Smooth Criminal- so underrated. Another performance I really liked was Blaine's version of cough syrup and River Deep Mountain High by Naya and Amber.
IT'S A CRIME that Lea Michele's performance in The Quarterback episode is not even mentioned here!!!!! Her rendition of Make You Feel My Love is one of the hardest that hit us and we're thankful for it! RIP Cory! Finn. RIP Cory Monteith, Mark Salling, and Naya Rivera. 😭😭😭😭😭
I loved all of Glee's performances, especially whenever Sue would get to led a tune, namely "Vogue", "Bitch" or "Sing." Jane Lynch really has a great singing voice. 🎶😍
@@branniedens3480asss, Queen. I Love Darren, but Blaine and Tina needed to be dropped down a peg or two in seasons 4 and 5, and that performance was amazing
The Jane Lynch rendition / shot-for-shot remake of the Madonna Vogue video was straight up epic. It was nothing like anything I ever expected from Jane Lynch, and knocked her several rungs up the ladder of my respect.
Santana and Mercedes were overlooked to many times. Instead of Glee this show should've been called The Rachel Show. Not that Lea isn't talented, it would be stupid to deny that and I'm not saying she shouldn't have been the leader, but this show lasted for 6 seasons and except for the last one they all have more than 20 episodes. There were more than 700 musical numbers, enough to let other people to shine a bit more
The show LITERALLY dropped Rachel off it & people still complain. After season ONE (which Rachel wasn't even that big of a part of the story as people act like, it was mostly focused on the adults/drama/finn/quinn/kurt/& YES Rachel, but she wasn't some HUGE part of it or the ONLY one with songs/story), by season 2-3 Rachel was HUGELY not getting much & even left out of entire plots for 5 episode stretches besides MAYBE a song or a minor joke/story. & Guess what the ratings FELL off the more Ryan gave into fans & gave other people songs/story. Season 4 was primarily the Blaine & Brittany show. LBR. Hell every season since Blaine showed up was the BLAINE show. Mercedes & Santana were handed so much in season 3 & plenty even before & after that. I think you've all been brainwashed that Rachel was given more than she was bc of how the show wrote the chars to hate her so much & your own bias. As a Rachel fan I can say when I watch season 2-3 it's SO BIASED AGAINST HER it annoys the shit out of me. I feel like the whole show is against her. They even had her get expelled so she couldn't sing at competition & it showcased the other people. lol. By season 4 I was watching for breadcrumbs of Lea/Rachel per episode. & There are eps she's not even IN. I WISH it was the Rachel show. Would have been better.
@@tracycook3556 that's your opinion, but not mine or other people. Maybe you're tha one who has been brainwashed. Season 3 was more open and it had number from different characters, but the rest was mainly The Rachel Show. At least that's what it seems to me. And if you only see the Rachel parts on later seasons, I don't think you're an objective person, at least not objective enough to give a fair opinion
@@casckettfriki & I don't think YOU are objective enough. I've seen every episode of Glee at least 30 times. I know every plot of every character. & I mean the Rachel parts are like 8 mins of an episode MAX in Season 4. (usually less) I also love the Santana parts & the Kurt parts. I'm not ONLY a Rachel fan. But as a huge Rachel fan I can say without a doubt the fandom is biased to hate her & they overestimate how much time she gets / how many solos she gets in the show. Maybe rewatch it from start to finish & see how much she is in it. I don't CARE if you don't like her but calling the show The Rachel Show is just bullshit. IMO Will is the mc of season 1 if anyone. Finn is the leader. & Rachel is YES a big part but you can't compare her to main chars of other shows where the entire show focuses on HER & only HER when Glee follows SO MANY CHARACTERS & So many DO get at least AS MUCH as her. Some chars have to be side chars. Every main char in that show gets plenty.
@@tracycook3556 at least I admited that Lea is very talented and I'm ok with Rachel being the center. What I don't like is Rachel's diva attitude and the fact that she has more solos and duets and other kind of songs than anyone in the show. And I've also watched the tv show a dizillion times. Santana barely appears on season 4, at least the first half. And she totally dissapears on most of season 5. And that was due to the fact that Lea didn't want her. So yes, Glee was The Rachel Show, or better, The Lea Michele Show. But you're not gonna change your mind and I'm not gonna change my mind, so it's stupid to keep arguing. Have a nice day
@@casckettfriki No Santana is in most of season 5. Naya disappears after episode NINETEEN of season 5. & Before that is in MOST of the episodes as a major part of it. ALSO Naya's rep confirmed Lea never tried to get Naya fired & Naya since has said she would work with Lea again in 2017 so clearly Lea didn't get her fired or off the show Naya made some accusations that didn't turn out to be true & have since been proven to NOT be true. Maybe do some research idk. I love Naya (RIP) & I love Lea. & Both of them had their issues but they at the end of the day both said that drama was blown out of proportion & they dont hate each other. YOU are proving your bias by bringing Lea into it at all tbh. The argument was about it being the Rachel show. That doesn't involve actors. & Yes you said Lea is talented which I never once even disputed & thank you for that ig? But my issue was with something else you said. & Now you've proven what I figured was the case & you just hate Rachel/Lea the end. As does everyone in this fandom. Nothing new. Bias is your issue. Maybe do more research cuz yeah your facts are WRONG. Goodbye.
Pretty much anytime Santana and Mercedes sing it's going to be brilliant. The Adele mash up is good but holy hell, "River Deep, Mountain High" is perhaps the most incredible duet of the entire series. Also, I am not sure now what they meant "performances that went hard" because to me that's "performances that were almost unnecessarily over the top" (which Glee was not afraid to do) . Does "Don't Rain On My Parade" fit that? Or "Loser Like Me?" Or "Valerie"? Not for me. Teenage Dream was ridiculous staging for a "casual" high school performance so yeah, that one makes sense. "Umbrella" - absolutely. Anything "Rocky Horror", sure. And yes, #1, "Slave 4U" as part of an anesthesia fever dream is absolutely right for this list! Just feel like a lot of the others don't make sense in this framing. Those are just.....good performances?
"Rumor Has It/Someone Like You" is TOO LOW. My Top 5 are: 1. "And I Am Telling You" - Amber sang this LIVE during the filming for pete's sakes!! 2. "Rumor Has It/Someone Like You" - the best mash up from Glee. Argue with the wall. 3. "Don't Rain on My Parade" 4. "Rose's Turn." - needs no explanation. 5. "Faithfully." - I cry every time that curtain goes up, and this is the best Lea sounded throughout the whole series.
Of course Brittana had to be on the very Top. Their Me against the music performance is what made me watch Glee. I had already seen many Rachel led numbers that only made me cringe so hard and chance the channel, but Brittany and Santana had that stage presence and coolness that commands your fully attention. Uber talented girls.
My favorite one is Teenage Dream, but they did a good job with Thriller, Somebody to Love, Landslide, Don’t Stand So Close to Me/ Young Girl, Lucky, Everything’s as if we Never Said Goodbye, Somewhere only we Know, Gangnam Style and that Empire State rap.
Heather Morris just nailed britney spears songs and ke-dollar sign-ha’s tik tok. Naya and Amber’s river deep mountain high deserved to be on the list too.
I get chills every single time I watch that And I'm Telling You performance. Amber, as always, killed it. And I adore everyone's reactions at watching her perform. Smooth Criminal is phenomenal. I was very impressed by those cellos. But Naya's voice, as always, was even more impressive. I'm sorry, Grant did really good in keeping up with Naya. But Santana won that duel by a landslide. And don't make talk about Valerie. I could be wrong but I think it was with that performance that I fell in love with Naya as a triple threat performer. She could sing, act, and dance. Good WAY TOO SOON. Rest in peace, Naya. I miss you and I could never forget the mine gold talent that you are. OH my gosh YES!! Brittany's number one!!! Glee has very questionable happenings behind the scenes, but I'll always be thankful to it for having introduced me to the brilliance of Heather Morris. I fell in love with Brittany pretty early on the show and her performances in the first Britney Spears tribute episode blew my mind. Another triple threat telent right there. Also she's a comedy genius.
My Honorable Mentions *Santana* - La Isla Bonita ❤ - Mine 💔🥺 - If I Die Young 😭🤧 *The Glee Girls* - Shake It Out💞 - Start Me Up/ Livin' In A Prayer🎸 *Brittany* - Run The World♀️🌍 - Tik Tok 🍻 *Kurt* - Single Ladies💍 *Kurt & Mercedes* - 4 Minutes⌚ *Quinn & Sam* - Lucky🍀 *Mercedes* - Bust Your Windows 🔨 *Cassandra July* 🔥☢️💥💣
"Heated tension" between Santana and Sebastian in "Smooth Criminal" ? I mean...the amount of SebTana 18+-rated fanfics that were written in the aftermath would only agree with you!
What’s YOUR favorite “Glee” performance? Let us know below, and check out our video of the Top 10 Most Underrated Glee Performances - ruclips.net/video/p3IlV-zZtDE/видео.html
The Boy is Mine, Moves like Jagger, I want to hold your hand, Marry the Night, Gloria, Bust a Move, The only exception
Adam Lambert doing 'Marry The Night' and Mercedes and Santana doing the Adele mash-up!
Rachel’s performance of Glitter in the Air has got to be the best performance.
@@rkturty faithfully
@@user-mn5si5jd5z nah Glitter in the Air is still better.
Naya being #2 and #3 is well deserved. Rest well Naya.
I agree. When she left this earth she took a great talent with her. 😢
Thinking the same thing this whole video 🫶🏽 hope her son grows up knowing she loved him and that she had a fire that can’t be replicated.
She was soooooo amazingly gorgeous
YES ❤💔😞
There are times that I prefer to listen to Glee Versions than the original songs 😂
Me too!!!!!!
Me too 😂
It's amazing that Lea and Amber went on to play the roles of their most iconic performances irl.
What roles???
@@lifeisbitvlover171in the case of Lea, she was cast as Fanny Brice in “Funny Girl” IRL.
Lea Michele: Fanny Brice in “Funny Girl”
Amber Riley: Effie White in “Dreamgirls” (and won the Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical)
@@jinakaye oh, good for them 👏🏼👏🏼
Oh wow, I knew that about Lea but just found out about Amber. Amazing!
Thank you for not having a Lea song be number 1 because Heather Morris ATE that Britney Spears episode. She was so under utilized the whole series.
THIS!
I recently watched S6.

smooth criminal is one of the best performances by two of the wittiest characters. it’s perfection with cellos
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen someone dance like Heather Morris. Insane dancer. Insane talent. I loved the inclusion of I feel pretty/unpretty. Really raw and emotional. Excellent list overall.
Heather Morris is so talented a dancer that she was thrown off Dancing With the Stars for being to professional. Yet they let two Olympic ice Dance champions, which is basically ballroom dancing on ice, compete as stars and one of them won the mirrorball. Heather is truly amazing.
@matthewrosenthal753 "Dolphins are just gay sharks". That line sold her on me.
If you think that's good you check out me against the music.
@@matthewrosenthal753she did win a completely different dancing competition show though!
Anything with Naya or Amber is outstanding!!! Such amazing talents on the show !!!🤍
Naya's performance on If I die young, which made me cry when first aired, and has since become unbelievably poignant
😥 true
Rumor Has It/Someone Like You is my absolute favorite mash-up!!!!!!!!!
I totally thought Thriller/Heads Will Roll would be number one, but anything with Brittney makes me happy.
Saame! I'm surprised Thriller/HWR wasn't even mentioned. Brittney's Slave4U was fire tho.
Rose's Turn not being on here is a tragedy. Raw, passionate performance by Kurt that deserves so much acclaim ✨
Thank you. The brief was 'performances that go hard'. Nobody gave more emotion in a single song than Kurt doing "Rose's Turn'.
100%. Kurt performed the HELL out of that number!
Agreed,
YES. also "my man" was stunning.
Cough Syrup was Darren Criss' biggest moment. But my favorite is still Paradise by the Dashboard Light

Kristin Chenoweth singing either Home or Maybe this time should have been on this list. The high note she hits at the end of both is spectacular!!
One of my favourite performances was How Will I Know - Lea, Naya, Chris and Ambers voices worked so well together
That one is a favorite of mine as well!!!
i am glad that "bad romance" at least got an honorable mention because that song is honestly one of the best vocal arrangements the show ever did. naya on the bridge still gives me chills every single time i listen to the repetition of "i don't wanna be friends" that builds up.

If you do a list of guest performances on Glee that went hard, please include Adam Lambert's rendition of "Marry the night"! It was totally epic!
Yes!
Agreed!!!
It was magic!
Every top 10 lists for Glee constantly remind me how great this show is. Thank you for posting close to the anniversary of the loss of Naya. A beautiful talent. ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
I loved the Christmas episode where Kurt and Blaine sing ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside’. I thought that was such a sweet scene.
Yes
That and them singing "White Christmas" too... It was like coming back full circle
Naya truly had such an incredible voice.
Love that this list gives the spotlight to some of the other characters. Santana, Mercedes, Brittany etc were all so talented. Of course Lea is a phenomenal singer, but I think most fans got a little fed up of the incessant Rachel bias. Anyway, my favourite Glee performance is The Scientist. It’s the one song where I think everyone shines so perfectly.
bruh "dream on" being only a honrable mention is criminal. one of the best covers i've ever heard of that song fr
I forgot about that one! That was amazing!
Rachel’s don’t rain on my parade gives me chills! I remember I bought that episode on iTunes just so I could watch it over and over
Actually, I thought that Santana's rendition was better.
@@mervyngreene6687i agree
Teenage Dream was a great way to introduce Blaine Anderson
It really was, I still remember it, and introduced me to the fabulous Darren Criss!
Indeed it was
It was the perfect way to introduce him!❤
Teenage Dream was so good but the Umbrella/Singing in the Rain is nothing but iconic! That would’ve been my number one
This makes me want to watch the whole series again!
Naya you will be forever missed 💔❤️ such an angelic and powerful voice
A tribute for the three month anniversary of discovering your channel. Thank you.
The Adele mash-up is so well mixed together and professionally made. I just shows you don't have to be extravagant to make an impression.
Very much agreed.
Thanks so much for the support!!
I always forget that's a mashup. It feels like those two songs have always been together and when I hear them apart it feels like something's missing.
So glad my favorite number came in at #3, but you missed an opportunity to credit the guest appearance of 2CELLOS. Referring to them as just a couple of cello players demeans their credit as the world-wide phenomenon. Either way, great list!
Agreed. They were just as big as any Glee song/video at the time with their original cello rendition of the song.
Don't forget Brittany herself made a cameo in that episode. That was cool!
And yet the Britney performance of slave for you proves exactly why the actress was a background dancer for Beyonce during her single ladies tour
Amber doing beautiful is not only my favorite glee song but also one of my favorite songs period
All of Britney’s performances were just amazing. Run the world from
Glee is still iconic but for sure the Britney episode is iconic. Her duet with Santana was phenomenal
Darren Criss as Blaine Anderson is a hit and Teenage Dream is perfect. It's still on my Music Playlist to this day
I love Rachel’s rendition of Don’t Rain on my parade! It really predicted the future at the time!
Smooth criminal with santana❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"Valerie," "Bust Your Windows" and "Girl on Fire" are the best!
How did River Deep, Mountain High NOT make this list???
3:54 ok this totally explains why Tom Hollands's performance on Lip Sync Battle looked so familiar.
My favourite song from glee was Kurt singing I wanna hold your hand, while his only parent is in hospital after a heart attack.
I loved when Santana sang"Smooth Criminal"
That Matthew Morrison and Neil Patrick Harris duet is iconic ❤️😌
I’m shocked that the Thriller/Heads Will Roll song didn’t make the cut, not even a mention. That track was 🔥🔥🔥
I loved most of Naya's and Amber's performances on ths show ( RIP Naya😭) and their duos are just SO GOOD. But I AM SO HAPPY we are finally talking about Naya and Grant's version of Smooth Criminal- so underrated. Another performance I really liked was Blaine's version of cough syrup and River Deep Mountain High by Naya and Amber.
Okay, I love the list, but NOTHING went harder than S3's "Cough Syrup", and that's a hill I'm ready to die on.
Literally cannot believe it's not on this list at all. Wtf
IT'S A CRIME that Lea Michele's performance in The Quarterback episode is not even mentioned here!!!!!
Her rendition of Make You Feel My Love is one of the hardest that hit us and we're thankful for it!
RIP Cory! Finn.
RIP Cory Monteith, Mark Salling, and Naya Rivera. 😭😭😭😭😭
🫤🫤… a little bit tone death about mark sailing.
Santana's "If I Die Young" was better.
@@aria123345I'd rather say RIP NOAH PUCKERMAN than that
I loved all of Glee's performances, especially whenever Sue would get to led a tune, namely "Vogue", "Bitch" or "Sing." Jane Lynch really has a great singing voice. 🎶😍
I LOVED her Nicki Minaj battle with Blaine. She was amazing.
For me it was her rendition of "Physical." That was a camp masterpiece.
@@branniedens3480asss, Queen. I Love Darren, but Blaine and Tina needed to be dropped down a peg or two in seasons 4 and 5, and that performance was amazing
The Jane Lynch rendition / shot-for-shot remake of the Madonna Vogue video was straight up epic. It was nothing like anything I ever expected from Jane Lynch, and knocked her several rungs up the ladder of my respect.
Do a list of best dance numbers for 4 minutes, bust your windows, how to be a heartbreaker and me against the music. Great list :)
When Rachel sings don't rain on my parade was incredible but when the teacher and NPH sing dream on I was really blow away
I loved loved Mercedes singing I Will Always Love You. Truly amazing!
Naya singing Songbird (Christine McVie/Fleetwood Mac) and Mercedes And I am Telling You ❤
britney cameo is one of my fave ever

Glee hit the jackpot with them letting Heather shine and taking the spotlight from the Britney Spears episode!
Loved when Britney sang "Who Runs the World? (Girls)".
Ricky and Naya "La Isla Bonita" was amazing too
Jonathan Groff with Lea for Rolling In The Deep gave me chills.
You missed Artie doing Safety Dance at the mall. It's amazing!!
Funny fact. N3, Smooth criminal by Glee is most watched on RUclips with request "Glee"
One of my favorite performances is when Britney sang "Run the World", at the pep rally when she was trying to get class president
No Paradise by the Dashboard Light? It’s a crime!
Santana and Sebastian singing Smooth Criminal had my bisexuality screaming.
Rumour Has It / Someone Like You mash up is soooeoo mesmerizing and elegant.
Heather Morris is amazing!
Agree!!
All of these Spectacular *Glee Performances* are Remarkable and Incredible! I Absolutely Love them all! 😄😁👌👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Pretty much anytime Santana and Mercedes sing it's going to be brilliant. The Adele mash up is good but holy hell, "River Deep, Mountain High" is perhaps the most incredible duet of the entire series.
Also, I am not sure now what they meant "performances that went hard" because to me that's "performances that were almost unnecessarily over the top" (which Glee was not afraid to do) . Does "Don't Rain On My Parade" fit that? Or "Loser Like Me?" Or "Valerie"? Not for me. Teenage Dream was ridiculous staging for a "casual" high school performance so yeah, that one makes sense. "Umbrella" - absolutely. Anything "Rocky Horror", sure. And yes, #1, "Slave 4U" as part of an anesthesia fever dream is absolutely right for this list! Just feel like a lot of the others don't make sense in this framing. Those are just.....good performances?
"Rumor Has It/Someone Like You" is TOO LOW.
My Top 5 are:
1. "And I Am Telling You" - Amber sang this LIVE during the filming for pete's sakes!!
2. "Rumor Has It/Someone Like You" - the best mash up from Glee. Argue with the wall.
3. "Don't Rain on My Parade"
4. "Rose's Turn." - needs no explanation.
5. "Faithfully." - I cry every time that curtain goes up, and this is the best Lea sounded throughout the whole series.
Anything by Blaine/Darren Criss is top tier. I am a grown butt adult but dang that man can sing! Love Darren to this day😘
don't rain on my parade season 1 and I look to you are my favorites
The Thriller/Heads Will Roll mash-up didn't even get a MENTION? Dishonor on YOU, dishonor on your cow!
Brittney Spear Performances Was Outstanding.
Naya was a banger! Such an amazing voice and range.
Of course Brittana had to be on the very Top. Their Me against the music performance is what made me watch Glee. I had already seen many Rachel led numbers that only made me cringe so hard and chance the channel, but Brittany and Santana had that stage presence and coolness that commands your fully attention. Uber talented girls.
"Will Schuester I hate you" always sends me xDDD
One of my favorite was "It's Cold Outside"
River Deep Mountain High. Nobody even gets close to the quality of Amber and Naya.
My favorite one is Teenage Dream, but they did a good job with Thriller, Somebody to Love, Landslide, Don’t Stand So Close to Me/ Young Girl, Lucky, Everything’s as if we Never Said Goodbye, Somewhere only we Know, Gangnam Style and that Empire State rap.
Amber Riley has beautiful soul voice and i dont think the teacher gves the respect she deserves
How was bohemian rhapsody not on this list. I know it wasn’t the new directions but that was the most iconic glee cover ever!!
I loved "Express Yourself" too!
I can’t describe the choke toxic s5 has had on me today since it aired nearly 10 years ago
Those Cellos in Smooth Criminal 👌
How Will I Know should have gotten honorable mention at least 😢
Alex Newell goes hard on everything, so I'm surprised no Unique songs are on here. "If I were a boy" still brings me tears.
I love Slave for 4 by brittney
Can’t believe Holly Holliday’s introduction to the class with CeeLo Green’s ‘Forget You’ wasn’t included.
I can't believe you forgot about Scream by Artie and Mike. It. Is. Epic!
Honestly my all time favorite will forever be "Singing In The Rain/ Umbrella" the background vocals and instruments just eat every time.
Heather Morris just nailed britney spears songs and ke-dollar sign-ha’s tik tok. Naya and Amber’s river deep mountain high deserved to be on the list too.
My all-time favorite performance is Surviver/I will survive by the Troubletones. High-energy, impeccable mash-up and amazing overall performance.
Very creative. I only envisioned this as a core track for aerobics.
"Will Schuester" , I hate u" Sue Sylvester everyone 😂
This is inspired. Very very good. THANK YOU.
I get chills every single time I watch that And I'm Telling You performance. Amber, as always, killed it. And I adore everyone's reactions at watching her perform.
Smooth Criminal is phenomenal. I was very impressed by those cellos. But Naya's voice, as always, was even more impressive. I'm sorry, Grant did really good in keeping up with Naya. But Santana won that duel by a landslide. And don't make talk about Valerie. I could be wrong but I think it was with that performance that I fell in love with Naya as a triple threat performer. She could sing, act, and dance. Good WAY TOO SOON. Rest in peace, Naya. I miss you and I could never forget the mine gold talent that you are.
OH my gosh YES!! Brittany's number one!!! Glee has very questionable happenings behind the scenes, but I'll always be thankful to it for having introduced me to the brilliance of Heather Morris. I fell in love with Brittany pretty early on the show and her performances in the first Britney Spears tribute episode blew my mind. Another triple threat telent right there. Also she's a comedy genius.
Also loved Kurt's rendition of " I'm not the boy next door"
Sorry, but Adam Lambert's performance was the most epic part of the whole Glee series. Shameful that it was not included.

"Heated tension" between Santana and Sebastian in "Smooth Criminal" ? I mean...the amount of SebTana 18+-rated fanfics that were written in the aftermath would only agree with you!
Bohemian Rapsody and Stronger not being on the list at all is a crime
