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

What's it about?

Lost love or unreturned or something.

losing one's religion

I vaguely remember hearing that it's an expression that means losing your sh*t, going crazy.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I got so sick of that song when it was all over MTV with the video with the milk and Michael Stipe sitting on that uncomfortable looking stool and angels and other band members running across the screen looking meaningfully over their shoulders and I just did not get why either the song or the video where ever considered to be such great shakes, but at the very least Michael Stipe can actually sing in that college radio station way of his. Unlike Finn, who just bleats his way through most songs.

That said, I am excited for Don't Go Breaking My Heart, even with Finn, because that song cannot be not good.

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

Oh! I never made the connection because I'd always heard it in future tense, as a warning. Much like "I may forget my manners". Hm.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, the phrase itself is something more like losing your temper, losing your composure. The song itself is about going crazy over an unrequited love. None of it has anything to do with spirituality or faith, which is how it's usually interpreted, and how it was used in the show.

But it was used that way by Finn, and it makes perfect sense that he wouldn't look beyond the title. This is the guy who thought that praying was like asking a genie to grant 3 wishes, and who asked for things like the ability to touch Rachel's breasts. Even though he came storming up to Kurt angry that he hadn't been notified about Burt's condition he apparently never considered using what he thought was his personal hotline to his deity to ask for help for Burt.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

Was anyone else kind of appalled that Finn didn't pray to his Grilled Cheesus for Kurt's dad?

They're really trying to make some of these characters as unlikable as possible!

"We have trust issues." Mylar

I feel like after he got busted by Puck in the locker room, he would have prayed to Grilled Chesus for Burt's speedy recovery. But maybe getting kicked out of the house has caused more of a strain on Burt and Finn's relationship than we've been led to believe?
