So, a few weeks ago, I became obsessed with the TV show, gLee.
I found out that the next episode will feature "Defying Gravity" as a musical number. I believe that Lea Michele (who plays Rachel in the show) is going to have this one, but I am not sure because it has been noted in the teaser that Kurt and Rachel will be "fighting for the lead solo". Which could mean that they would be fighting over singing this song. I would rather have Rachel sing it, just to hear how far her voice can go, but for comic effect it would be great to hear Kurt do it instead. (I will ROTFL if this does happen.) Anyways, kinda got off on a tangent there.
So if Lea does sing the song, how do you think she will do?
I am hoping she knocks it out of the park, because she will go on my list of ladies who need to audition for Wicked the Movie then.
I am really mad though that I have to wait possibley 3 weeks to see this episode. _________________

I believe Rachel and Kurt will be doing it together, competition style. And yeah, it's failry obvious that she's going to belt her little heart out, but I'm sure Kurt's going to rock it too... _________________ Blithely all are blending shrooms...then came those rotten fangirls

You're right! I just listened to a 30 second clip of them singing. The song is a bit slower than usual. Kinda like an upbeat pop ballad. That's kind of a downer for me. But hey maybe that will change later in the song. Idk. Just really excited to hear it done!! _________________

It sounds to me like they're covering the single version released by Idina Menzel. _________________ Nick - "Let each child that is in your care have as much neurosis as the child can bear." ~ Auden |

Yeah. I put two and two together and realized this. Should have realized this sooner. But whatever. Still bummed that they're doing that version instead of the kick butt high energy version from the musical. Lea could pull this off without even thinking about it! _________________

It's a pretty disappointing cover. Chris Colfer gives a better performance than Lea Michele. _________________ Nick - "Let each child that is in your care have as much neurosis as the child can bear." ~ Auden |

I'm a bit pleased about that, for some reason. _________________

So what's going to happen is Rachel and Kurt are singing it together. I have the mp3, actually, and they do a really good job. gLee is AMAZING!!! _________________ "Sing like no one is listening, dance like no one is watching, love like you''ve never been hurt."
