“Not dead yet!”

In an odd moment of synchronicity, a former bandmate of mine posted links to charts we performed way back in the day as members of the FSU Marching Chiefs. So seeing the marching band featured on GLEE was kind of goosebumpy, in a good way.

And dear loward, as angelic as Kurt/Chris Colfer's falsetto is, I want to hear more of that boy's growly tenor.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I found the Like a Virgin bit a little icky just because the choreography seemed to imply synchronized sex - cutting between the couples with the women all arching their backs, etc. I did find Rachel's seductive lingerie hilarious, though.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I didn't enjoy the Like a Virgin sextet (heh) because I wanted four of them to stop.

After my DVR cut out I was sad they didn't play my favorite Madonna song, Like a Prayer. Thanks for the link smonster!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

No Puck! Or Quinn! Almost none, at least.

There haven't been any clear shots of Quinn - she is either sitting or strategically behind someone. So many questions about her. Where is she living? Her parents kicked her out and I can only assume that she has left Finn's. She has seemed pretty chill for someone in her position.

I know, I know - don't expect deep character development or consistency from GLEE.

Like a Virgin was squickworthy last night. I didn't like it's use in Moulin Rouge either.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I noticed the last episode that Puck and Quinn were pretty up close and personal whenever they were in the background. Didn't notice if that carried through to last night.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I saw a photo from Spring Awakening and realised that the actor who plays that icky Jessie guy was the male lead opposite Lea Michelle in the play, and now i guess i understand why he's on the show. before that recognition, i just wasn't getting it: he's not all that amazing looking and not fantastic enough of a singer to ping as so desirable. Knowing that the actors have history helps me understanding the casting a bit...tho I still think he's squicky. In a bad way. I guess we're supposed to, tho. I loved Sue Sylvester....dance on air so very very much.

Hey. New board.

I LOVE the way Jesse St. James is being played. He's so deliciously over-the-top, and I've always thought this show was the best when it erred on the side of the ridiculous. The more it gets like the first season of Popular only with singing, the more I love it.

He had some amazing lines, too. "Come on out so we can talk, or at least sing about it." and "Finn, I know we're headed for a big showdown, so let's pick the arena now. Sing-off, 5 p.m, parking lot." I laughed and laughed. Though Kurt saying "She's black. I'm gay. We MAKE culture." was even better.

I'm just sad we didn't get to see a sing-off.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I liked the line about meeting in the Stephen Sondheim biography section, because only Sondheim can express his melancholia.
