Top 9 songs with better glee cover than original
Glee was a musical comedy-drama which aired from May 19, 2009, to March 20, 2015. It starred a lot of Broadway stars like Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison, Jenna Ushkowitz, Darren Criss and many more. The main cast also included Cory Monteith, Naya Rivera, Dianna Argon, Kevin McHale, Amber Riley, Chris Colfer, Heather Morris, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Harry Shum Jr, Mark Sailing and the cast kept growing. They have guest starring from a lot of big stars like Idina Menzel, Neil Patrick Harris, Kristen Chenoweth, Jonathan Groff and many more. Having all new faces for the show (some of them had had small roles previously but no one was a big star yet), the show creators were surprised at its popularity. The show tackled a lot of societal issues like teen pregnancy, bullying, hate against LGBTQ+ and issues faced by them, sexuality, race and many more. The show mostly covered songs that were already sung by other songs (well they did take permission of the original people before featuring the song). As is the case, there are some songs which sound better in cover form than the original. So here is a list of glee songs that I think sound better than the original version (THIS IS MY OPINION):
1.Don’t Stop Believing
This song was originally performed by the band Journey in 1981 and is a rock song. It was not a hit at first but now it is considered as one of the signature songs for the band. In glee it is performed by Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale, Jenna Ushkowitz and Amber Riley. This song is considered as an anthem song for the show as this was the beginning of an era. The song has been performed a total of six time with the main six being in all of them (Except one performance missing Cory). It was first featured at the end of the pilot episode and well I think the original is good but the glee cover gives it a more crispiness and more energy than the original song. This song is one of my favorites from the show.
2.It’s Not Right but It’s Okay
This song was originally performed by Whitney Houston. I know you must be thinking how could a Whitney Houston cover song be better than the original? Well, it is not better but it is an extremely amazing cover of the song. In glee, it is performed by Darren Criss and the New Direction(the choir group’s name) as background. Darren’s voice gives the song more energy and it sounds bolder in his voice and for some reason, I felt like I was the one who was cheated on rather than Darren’s character whenever I hear this cover (Even though I don’t have a boyfriend). This cover also has a little more upbeat music than the original.
3. Jessie's Girl
This song was originally performed by Rick Springfield in 1981. In glee it is performed by Cory Monteith. According to BTS footage from the studio of the show, Cory thought that it was one of his best performances till that time (he has had a lot of amazing performances since). The background for the song to be featured in the show is that the girl he likes, Rachel (Lea Michele), is with an older boy named Jesse (Jonathan Groff) and there he sings the song for Rachel. It is a sweet performance with a little funny aspect to it as the girl he likes is really Jesse’s girl. As for the song, Cory’s voice in this makes me want to tap my feet and be Jessie’s Girl!
4.Give Up the Funk
This was originally performed by the band Parliament in 1975. In glee, it is performed by all the cast members (the New Direction). The original is not as funky as the cover. The cover is funkier and more energetic than the original. The cover makes me wanna bust a move but the original doesn’t. Plus we get a treat of listening a deep Chris Colfer voice (the raps in the start and end).
5.Teenage Dream
This was originally performed by Katy Perry. In glee, it is performed by Darren Criss and the warblers. It is the first song to feature Darren in the series. I like the glee version of this song because it is acapella and Darren made the song his own. I couldn’t have thought of a better first song for Blaine and I feel in love with him through this song. He performs this song again for Kurt in season 4 on piano which is also very good. (the gif is from the first episode; after a couple of minutes he performs the song, Blaine not Kurt)
6.Last Christmas
This was originally performed by Wham! in 1985. In glee, it is performed by Lea Michele and Cory Monteith. Although this song gets covered every Christmas, I like the glee version (and Taylor Swift version). As lea has a soprano vocal range, meaning that she can see similar an opera singer like can carry a note for a longer time than normal, she carries the notes for the song beautifully. And with Cory’s voice mixing with hers, the song seems magical!
7.Total Eclipse of The Heart
This song was originally performed by Bonnie Tyler in 1983. In glee, it is performed by Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Jonathan Groff and Mark Sailling. The original song is not very good, the voice of the singer is not good in the song (I think she had had a throat surgery and started recording the song before complete rest, but I don’t know). All the covers of this song are good but I particularly like the glee version because it has four people singing it and if you listen closely, you can differentiate when which of the boys is singing. Their voices mix very well. Jonathan and lea’s voices, and Cory and lea’s voices mix perfectly. With Mark, it is okayish.
8.Touch A Touch A
This was originally performed by Susan Sarandon in the movie The Rocky Horror Show in 1975. In glee, it is performed by Jayma Mays. The glee version is more fun to listen as it is more upbeat and the original sounds a little monotonous.
9.We Found Love
This was originally performed by Rihanna featuring Calvin Harris in 2011. In glee, it is performed by the New Direction. As in the official music video for the song, it shows drug addiction and violence. Though, the music video is good, I don’t think anyone would have thought that this song could be used in a proposal of a high school teacher to his girlfriend (guidance counselor) and is sung by a couple of high school kids in a swimming pool! the glee performance gave the song a whole new meaning.
So, hope you do check these songs out see for yourself if I am right!!!
