"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Finn, Quinn, and Artie are the ones who are overwhelmed by the electronic enhancement all too often to me. (And it's odd that they do it so much for Artie, since Kevin McHale is a good singer.) But I do recall at least a couple of songs where even Lea Michelle was auto tuned and it's REALLY jarring to hear it on her voice.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I agree. I'm not sure why they did it.

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

They didn't do much to her voice at all. She was kind of terrible, but she owned what she sang :)

Um, what did she sing? IIRC it was like one or two lines in the whole thing.

The autotuning of Finn is out of control. I'm sure Cory Monteith is a perfectly lovely fellow, but since he can't sing and can't dance, I'm kind of at a loss as to why he was cast as Finn. Pulls me out of the story a lot more than it should.

Lea Michelle has definitely been autotuned at times. I really noticed it in the Madonna episode, but the first time I thought it happened was when she sang Take a Bow. (The Rhianna version, not the Madonna version, although that would've been awesome!) It was so weird because she didn't need it at all. Rhianna is no one's vocal powerhouse. I really wish they'd stop with the autotune because most of the kids don't seem to need it.

This is one of the few times I've been glad to be tone-deaf.

I'm sure Cory Monteith is a perfectly lovely fellow, but since he can't sing and can't dance,

and the acting is a little suspect as well.

OMG, the trashing of Finn is making me laff.

But not as pretty. Okay, Finn wasn't pretty, I'm just a sucker for rugged military/cop types.

They're both Finns! I just realized that, d'oh!

I finally saw the pilot! Now the rerun from last night makes sense...well, as much sense as any episode does!
