loved burt hummel in this episode! i loved the gaga costumes, but i kind of felt like having idina menzel sing lady gaga was kind of a let down. rachel has one chance to sing with her mother like she's always dreamed, and she picks "poker face" ??? i know it was the "gaga episode" but they had idina menzel, who has this amazing voice, and i felt like they didn't use her. but i still thought it was a good episode. and they gave lines to matt and mike! so happy! :)
i can't believe you get to see them live, i am so jealous! :)
I disagree, I loved it! I mean, she did partly pick it because it was the only piano music she had since they were doing GaGa. But I loved their rendition of it and I thought it was amazing for them and the song DID let Idina use her great voice. I am biased because Poker Face is one of my favorite songs ever. To top it off, they sang I Dreamed a Dream last week together which yeah, not in RL but it still worked in a more Broadway way. Definitely happy about Burt and the lines though!
I know it'll be worth the money times a billion :) I'm sure they'll do it next year!
Only problem is is unlike the Madonna episode, there weren't enough GaGa songs :( I felt kind of cheated, tbh. The costumes were awesome (including Rachel's horrible one, LOL "we have a jumper"), but this was just as much a KISS Episode as a Gaga Episode. Not a fan of the random dramatic Pokerface. WHY DID THEY NOT SING "PAPARAZZI"?
I just think an episode they peg as the GaGa episode should be ALL about GaGa with lots more songs from her. I do think there was more of a GaGa theme than KISS and I was okay with that song but the two others not so much. I'm guessing Paparazzi would be hard to fit in lyricwise...but then again, a Kurt song with that could have really worked with Finn and fit in with the storyline. Once again, it seems like it's a matter of their not being enough time.
I'm guessing Paparazzi would be hard to fit in lyricwise It would've been more fitting for Rachel/Shelby than Pokerface IMO. Not *exactly* perfect, but parts of it could've been sweet.
The Pokerface duet was pretty... except it was Pokerface. Sung by a mother and daughter. About getting a guy horny xD It was awkward like that- feels like the episode of 30 rock where Jenna and her mom sing "Do it To Me One More Time." Except this was actually serious.
See I didn't care about that besides it being kind of funny. I barely noticed the lyrics, Idina and Lea really carried it and made it meaningful in a deeper sort of way. I just loved it and think it's a great song to have in the episode in any way possible.
