Queens "Somebody to Love" covered by the Cast of "Glee"...

Well...No need to get into specifics here. I admit that I am not the biggest "Glee" fan, however I happened to catch this episode which featured the cast of "Glee" covering Queens' "Somebody to Love" and was blown away!!!

Fox network newest high school drama/comedy series is not much different than others in the past however, obviously "Glee" focuses mainly on the glee club which performs anywhere from 5 to 8 classic songs or current chart toppers' per episode and of course touches on other typical high school dramatics. Breaking out into song and dance is the standard for theatrical shows in the past; however, "Glee" takes a different approach as song's featured in the episode are performance based, not spur of the moment. "Glee" is a very theatrical show and is not for everyone, however, they have found their niche and successfully crossed-over into an extremely popular late night TV series....Inspired by High School Musical? I'd say so...

Love it or hate it, you must respect the vocal intricacies and layers of harmonies that are combined to create these power-packed performances that are surprisingly easy to clear with their respective record labels. Props to the musical director and casting agent for finding a great blend of cast and songs. Specifically, Bronx native Lea Michele who grew up on Broadway's "Les Miserables" as a youth and more recently starred in "Spring Awakening". Her vocals are out of this world! Take a listen to "Somebody to Love".

Freddy Mercury eat your heart out....haha

Also, stay tuned for a series of "Glee" soundtrack albums released via Columbia Records. Volume one is set to release November 3th, 2009.
