Gleecap of "Original Song"

Ohhh myyy Goodd...last night's Glee was EPIC! They sang original songs..I have been waiting for this day since I first started watching the show.


Once again Rachel tried writing her own song, this time it was called "Only Child", Finn told her that she was improving, but it still wasn't regional material. While this was happening, Quinn was telling us why she wanted to be with Finn...so she can be Prom Queen. (yeah now I definitely don't like her). She kept saying that she needed to keep Rachel away from Finn, and that you need to keep your friends close, but your enemies closer. She then ended by saying "Well, Rachel Berry, you just got yourself a new best friend." Later, Quinn told Finn that after Regionals they were going to go public with their relationship and start campaigning for Prom Queen and King. Personally, I think Finn is a bit of an idiot for not realizing that the only reason Quinn wants to be with him is so she can get a shiny crown.

Meanwhile, at Dalton Academy, Blaine suggests that they should sing a duet at regionals. The glee board agrees and they all vote to have Kurt sing with Blaine. Later, Blaine tells Kurt that he wants to do this duet with him so he can spend more time with Kurt. Then he kisses him!! This part was really awkward (Darren's lips are huge lol), but I was so happy for Kurt because he finally got his happy ending :)

Back at McKinley High the glee clubbers are hard at work on writing their own original songs for regionals. Santana writes one for Sam called "Trouty Mouth," Puck writes one for his girlfriend called "Big ass..heart," and Mercedes writes one called "Hell to the No" (this one was actually really good). Mr. Shue tries to explain to the club that most songs are written about something that hurts someone, so they get talking about how Sue has hurt them. They end up writing a song called "Loser like Me". While this is going on, Rachel and Quinn are in the auditorium trying to write a song together. Rachel had heard Quinn talking with Finn in the hallway and asked Quinn to tell her the truth. Quinn explains (rather rudely) that she is going to marry Finn and they are going to raise a family and that Rachel does not fit anywhere in the picture. Heartbroken, Rachel goes home and writes a beautiful song called "Get it Right".

At the competition, Sue's glee club sings some song about Jesus. The Warblers sing the song "Candles", alone Kurt and Blaine are amazing singers, but together they sound icky :(. Right before New Directions goes on stage Rachel tells Finn to listen closely to the lyrics in her song because she means every word. They basically blow the audience away and, yes it has finally happened, GLEE MAKES IT TO NATIONALS!!!!! I am so happy!! :D So, Glee is on a "break" right now and won't be back until after Spring Break...so sad :(

Gleecap of "Blame it on the Alcohol"

Tuesdays episode of Glee was FANTASTIC! Oh my gosh, where do i begin? Well, first things first, it's alcohol awareness week at Mckinley high and the Principal wants the Glee Club to sing an anti-alcohol song at the assembly on Friday.  I loved the beginning of the show when Rachel sang her song to Finn...it's called "My headband". It was so funny, Finn asked Rachel why she wrote a song about her headband and she replied by saying that she heard that when writing a song you are supposed to write about things she knows.  She and Finn start talking and Rachel realizes that she really hasn't lived. So, she decides to throw a party at her house while her dads are away. At the party, Rachel is wearing this crazy ugly dress and gives every one 2 alcohol tickets for wine coolers. Puck convinces Rachel to let them get into her dads liquor cabinet so they can get really hammered.  Pretty Soon every one is wasted and Finn gives Rachel the "types of drunks" lecture. He describes the jealous drunk (Santana), the stripper drunk (Brittany), the happy drunks (Mercedees and Tina), and the clingy, hopeless romantic (Rachel). 
   here's the clip :) I love Mercedees and Tina

Anyways, to prove to Finn that she's not needy and hopeless, she starts a game of Spin the Bottle. During this game, Rachel spins the bottle and it lands on Blaine.  They kiss and have a "connection"....I must admit that I was totally jealous of Rachel, I wish I could kiss Darren Criss. Kurt gets really jealous (go figure). The next day, the Glee Club and Blaine have HUGE hangovers. Kurt gets in trouble because he let Blaine crash at his house, and his Dad walks into his room to find Blaine in Kurt's bed (AWKWARD). At school, the Glee clubbers are all in sunglasses and look miserable. They don't really learn their lesson though because Arty brings Bloody Marys to school (seriously, only an idiot would bring alcohol to school).

Now let me talk about Will....oh Will...he was great in this show. He is stressing about Emma, his divorce, regionals, and (as always) Sue.  So, coach Beast takes him to a country bar where they both get totally wasted. They sing a country song duet, Will was fantastic (as always) and Coach beast was half bad. I mean, she's no Kristen Chenowth, but she was 10 times better than that girl Puck has a crush on. Anyways, when the cab they rented stops at Will's house and they have a chat about the difference between them drinking and the glee clubbers drinking (yes, they both know about the "fun" that was has a Rachel's house). Once Coach Beast leaves, Will calls Emma and leaves a veeeeerrrryyyyy bad message. At the school the next day, Will apologizes about the message he left, but Emma has no idea what he is talking about (oh no).

Later at the Assembly the glee club is nervous about performing (I think they're still hungover since most of them kept drinking throughout the week) so Rachel gives everyone a shot of this concoction she created with the remains of her dads liquor cabinet, some grape kool aid, and cough syrup. During their performance of Tik Tok (by K-dollar sign-ha, as the Principal put it lol), Brittany gets sick and barfs all over Rachel, and pretty soon Santana follows suit. After the assembly, Sue makes an announcement and plays Will's message on the loud speaker. (oh boy, so Will actually called Sue....ha of people). Principal Figgins calls the glee club into his office and congratulates them on a job well done at the assembly, he really thinks the "fake" barf really hit home for the students. They end up getting coupons for free frozen yogurt.

Overall, I think this episode was by far my favorite. Mainly because my two favorite characters sang a duet together! (Rachel and Blaine, for those of you who didn't already know) I am so upset that the next new episode doesn't air for two whole weeks....darn American Idol is messing up the schedule. I am looking forward to the fact that Qwenteth Paltrow is going to be back, I liked her the last time she was on Glee :)

Here's the duet :)

Gleecap of "Comeback"


Ugghhh....this week the Glee Club got the deadly disease BEIBER FEVER! Well, not literally but it was still bad.  See, Sam knows he is losing Quinn to Finn so he comes up with this crazy idea to create a Justin beiber band to get Quinn to all back in love with him.  It was really funny actually because Sam was waaayyyy better then Beiber....he actually made the song "Baby Baby' sound halfway decent.  Finn was the only guy in Glee club who did not become a Beiber clone....he actually had some sense thank the lord.  He was this way until Quinn told him that she chose Sam because she is attracted to his "stardom". Finn then tries to be Beiber, but it just doesn't work out for him.  Sam really thinks that he's won Quinn over until Santana has a "talk" with him. She tells him that he really needs to think about why exactly Quinn and Finn had mono at the same time...it wasn't because Finn choked on a gumball and Quinn saved him (yeeaaahh...that was their excuse), but because they had one heck of a make-out session. Sanatana offers her "services" (if you know what I mean) to help Sam get back at Quinn for cheating. later in the episode Quinn asks Sam if he's still on for Friday night, and he tells her that there's no date on Friday because they're no longer going out.  WAY TO GO SAM!! For some reason, I really don't like Quinn....it could be because of the way she acted last season when she was pregnant (oh whoa is me...I'm going to be a teen mom, my life sucks....blah blah blah...well Quinn, newsflash! maybe you shouldn't have don't the direct object-hehe- with someone, especially cuz that someone wasn't your boyfriend) and now all we're going to hear bout is her whining because she cheated on her boyfriend (a second time!!) and now she got dumped...again (may I point out that this is the second time she has cheated AND lied about it).

On another note, Sue is depressed as ever and tries to commit "Sue-icide". Emma and Will try to go to her aid and Emma suggests that Sue should sit in Glee Club this week because music makes her "Happy". Sue gets her mojo back once she realizes her goal is to focus on destroying the Glee Club.  She decides that she is going to ruin them from the inside out, starting with the two Divas Rachel and Mercedes.  They have a diva-off and sing "Take me or leave me" from Rent (LOVE THAT MUSICAL!!!)  What started as a competition turned into a fun time with two of the best singers in glee club :) Will finally starts thinking that Sue has seen the light, oh he doesn't know how wrong he is. At the the end of the episode, Sue informs Will that she is the new Oral intensity coach and that she will be competing against him at regionals. grreeeaaatttt.....

The final thing that happens in the episode deals with Rachel. She's got her mojo back and is determined to become a star once again.  To try and get popular, she tries to set a trend by making Brittany wear her style to school.  Only her plan goes terribly wrong....every time Rachel tries to claim that Brittany started that trend because she told her to, everyone makes fun of her, but praises Brittany. Rachel gets super bummed. She gets even more upset when everyone denies her idea to write their own songs for regional...the only way that they will be unexpected.  Finn agreed with her, and told Rachel that she needs to write a song to prove to the rest of the glee club that her idea was great.  Oh how I am beginning to loathe Finn and his jerkness.....

Gleecap of "Silly Love Songs"

It's the week of Valentine's Day and love is in the air at McKinley High and Dalton Academy....Love DRAMA that is.  I honestly think more hearts got broken in this episode than in any other, which is kind of ironic because it's the Valentine's day show. 

Well, to kick things off; Finn is like the most popular guy in school now because they won the championship game and all the girls want to kiss him accept Quinn, the one girl that he wants to kiss. So, to try and get Quinn to kiss him, he decides to set up a kissing booth.  Wow, what a stupid idea.  Rachel is really mad when she goes to get her kiss because she only gets a cheek kiss.  Finn tries to make up for it by giving her his belated Christmas gift, a star necklace, and tells her that they both need to be single now; especially Rachel so she can focus on her dream of becoming a star.  (because Rachel is so naive she totally buys this bull crap, but I don't not for one second) Anyway, Quinn tells Finn that she's not going to kiss him because she's still with Sam. Sam gets jealous and tells Quinn that the only way he will know for sure that Quinn isn't into Finn, is to see her kiss him.  Quinn agrees and when she and Finn kiss (with Sam watching) they see fireworks.  She slyly whispers in Finn's ear to meet her later...NOT GOOD! Santana realizes what Finn and Quinn have done and to get revenge, she comes up with this scheme to make sure that Quinn and Finn both get Mono, so Sam knows that they were cheating.  She succeeds, but I don't think Sam really suspects that anything happened.

The other storyline is between Puck and the new Glee girl, Lauren Zizes.  Puck realizes that he really likes her and spends the entire episode trying to get her to go out with him.  He sings a love song to her, tries to sweet talk her, and eventually "proposes" to her with a ring pop; asking her to go to breadstix with him on Valentines day.  She accepts, but doesn't show up.  The next day, she tells Puck that she wants a serious relationship ands that she knows how "un-commital" Puck is, so if he really likes her he will take things slow. It was so funny!

At Dalton Academy, Kurt isn't really in the Valentine's Day mood until Blaine tells him that he has a crush on some guy and is going to ask him out by singing to him on Valentine's Day.  Kurt thinks it's him and gets super excited, until Blaine tells the glee club that this crush works at the Gap. But, when Blaine sings his love song the the guy at the Gap, the guy totally shoots him down.  Blaine gets really upset, but Kurt is there for him (awww :D) Kurt also tells Blaine that he really thought it was him who Blaine had a crush on, and Blaine said that he really does care for Kurt, but that for now it would be better to be Friends because he's no good at romance.  So, in the end Blaine and Kurt are on mutual ground...they better get together officially soon because other than Finchel (Finn and Rachel) they are my favorite couple!

The episode ends with Rachel in the nurse's office taking care of Finn until his mom comes to pick him up. Rachel asks Finn what it was like kissing Quinn and Finn responds by saying "Fireworks".  Rachel also asks what he felt whenever he kissed her, and Finn just kind of sits there. It takes Rachel all she has to not cry, Finn tries to explain, but Rachel cuts him off by saying that she needed to hear that; now she can finally move on....Ok, so here's where I vent.  FINN IS SUCH A STINKING JERK! I used to like him, but then he just got all mean and now I don't. I reeeaalllyyy hope Finn and Quinn don't get back together again, because it's just going to end horribly....I mean c'mon it didn't really work out that well the First time....and Finn and Rachel are so perfect together...that's all that needs to be said about that.  Well, until next week :) P.s : sorry the post was so long...
