    I like the Glee fact. Even if people won't admit it for 'saving face' reasons, I bet most people on the sly like at least one Glee song from the three seasons. For example this isn't that bad.........

    And having just tried to listen to that, but failed, I must ask

    Why the hell would you burn your ears on such crap when you could listen to Freddie Mercury doing it?

    I just don't get it.

    Agreed

    Now i'm not ashamed to say that i'm a fan of Glee and really like quite a few of the songs from the show but what I like is when they take a song and make it a bit more upbeat or put a different take on it. The song that dreamboy linked to was awful as it was just an attempt at making a carbon copy of queen's version and if you're doing that then you simply HAVE to sing it better than the original and they certainly didnt.

    An example of one that I think is ok.

    I was trying to find an example where they had 'jazzed up' an old song and that was the first I thought of. Could have been worse, I could have mentioned ice ice baby
