This is it, guys! This is the last music review for Glee episode from me. Well, last for this season. Yes, we have almost reached to the end of the season and the finale is called “All Or Nothing”. It’s a Regionals’ episode. Yes, the seniors have yet to graduate and yes, they will only graduate next year aka next season. It doesn’t make sense? It’s okay. It’s Glee.
So, here are the music for the finale:
Ain’t this late? Yes, it is! Because I spent quite a while applying for a job. The perks of being a 20-something in this world. I say “world” because all 20-somethings in this world are probably feeling the same way as me and not just 20-somethings in Singapore. Except if your name is Chris Colfer and Darren Criss, of course. Those two can make me feel bad about myself sometimes. Let’s see how Chris and Darren ruined my life: Darren is 26 years old and he went from being a YouTube star singing Disney songs in his room with his guitar and playing Harry Potter in a parody to being an actor in Glee, which you may hate but it’s a popular show anyway, and now acting in a feature film with Kristen Wiig and Annette Bening and was in a Broadway show called “How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying”. Chris Colfer, meanwhile, auditioned for the role of Artie on Glee but instead got a new role written just for him and then he just decided to make me feel more incompetent by being named one of Time‘s most influential person in 2011, won the Golden Globes and nominated in several others like Emmy and SAG, is New York Times‘ No. 1 bestselling author of The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell and Struck By Lightning, which he also produced and wrote as a film, and he’s only turning 23 years old this year! To top it all off, these two just decided to ruin myself more by being hot individually and together as a couple (on a TV show). Do you feel bad about yourself now?
But I’m going way off-track here.
I’m supposed to recap the latest episode of Glee titled “Wonder-ful”. Like I said before, it’s going to be filled with many a Stevie Wonder songs and Kurt, Mercedes and Mike are back in McKinley High. And because Kurt is back in McKinley High, I’m going to start off my recap with New York side of the story. I always save the best for last *wink wink*
Come aboard my recap train. Choo-choo!
This week, there will be seven songs, all from Stevie Wonder (Wonder-ful, get it, get it?). What’s the plot? No idea except that Kurt Hummel, Mercedes Jones and Mike Chang are back at McKinley High. For what? No idea. Well, I know that Mercedes Jones is back to coach New Directions on singing and Mike on dancing but I don’t know why Kurt is there. For fashion? Whatever it was, I’m here to review the music because if the plot sucks, at least we have the music. And if you don’t love Stevie Wonder, get out of here!
I should curtsie first of all because in my previous Glee-related post, I guessed that this episode will involve a blackout and I was right! A round of applause for me. Thank you! Thank you!
There are many songs in this episode, which also means there are many storylines, which also means that I can’t remember what happened in the episode half the time. Unlike Game of Thrones – many characters, many different storylines but I could still remember what happened in an episode of the show without having to rewatch when I’m recapping. But Glee? No, I have to rewatch to recap, which is infuriating!
Anyway, on with the show, shall we?
Well, this is later than I usually post it. You see, I spend the entire night last night changing the theme of this blog of mine and added an “About Me” page to talk about… well… me. If you dig this theme, please feel free to let me know so I can preen under the compliments. If you don’t dig it, keep it to yourself. Haha! I’m kidding!
Anyway, so the next episode of Glee will have six songs. Will there be a plot? I’m going to guess that it’s gonna be one of those silly episodes since Nightbird will be appearing (Nightbird!). I’m not even sure what “Lights Out” even mean. McKinley has a blackout? Oh well, we will find out soon enough.
Onward with the songs since I care about that than the episode itself… other than Kurt and Blaine of course.
I don’t know if it’s just me but everytime I see the words “sweet dreams”, I start singing Eurythmics’ “sweet dreams are made of thisssss who am I to disagreeeeeee”. Anyone? Just me? Okay. I shall be alone in my corner singing the song and waving my hands up in the air.
So, anyway, this episode of Glee is called “Sweet Dreams”, which is about dreams. What else would it be, right?
Onward to my recap…
My Game of Thrones Episode Recap will be delayed and instead, I will give you my review of the songs from the next episode of Glee first.
The next episode of Glee will be called “Sweet Dreams” and to be honest, since I have shunned from general Glee spoilers except for spoilers of two characters that I actually care about, I have no idea what the plotline for the next episode will be except Marley has written songs and this episode will have Marley’s “original song”. And I guess it is brought over by Marley’s video confession in the last episode that there are songs that she had written and kept in a drawer.
Anyway, enough of that, let’s hear the music! First up…
As mentioned in my post a few days ago when I reviewed the songs from Glee for the latest episode, there are only three songs in this episode, which means that there will be a plot in this episode! Gasp! Glee has a plot? Yes, Glee has a plot and I am surprised to say that I actually watched the whole episode and enjoyed it.
If you have not watched it and do not want to be spoiled, do not go any further than this.
My oh my, there are only three songs for the next episode of Glee called “Shooting Star”. I’m not going to spoil what will happen in that episode though the clue is in the title. Sneaky Glee is sneaky.
I have to admit I can’t be called a Gleek anymore because everytime I watch the show, I wanted to cry and ask the creators what had happened. What happened to the Glee I love in Season 1 and 2?
Anyway, I’m not here to rant about what a hot mess Glee had become but I’m going to review the songs for the next episode as non-judgementally as possible.
