Happy Halloween! What Did The Glee Cast Dress Up As?

Well hi! It’s been a while, I know. In fact, I think that this was the longest I’ve been without blogging…ever. I am sorry, though. I just got really busy and when I wasn’t busy, I was lazy. Also there hasn’t been a lot of Glee news to report anyways…

But Happy Halloween! Got any plans? Got a costume ready? Have you eaten candy yet? As someone who hates horror, Halloween isn’t my thing. But I do appreciate a good costume, and so this post is just a compilation of the Glee cast’s Halloween costumes this year. If more pictures come out throughout the day or whatnot, I’ll add them, but so far, here is what we have:

Lea Michele as Little Red Riding Hood

Becca Tobin and Jacob Artist as Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy

Chris Colfer as Grumpy Cat and boyfriend Will Sherrod (IDK what Will is supposed to be…something space related)

Chord Overstreet as a police officer

Mark Salling as a beauty pageant winner

Naya Rivera as a Mail Order Bride

Jenna Ushkowitz as Annie

Dianna Agron as a bat (there are no good full body photos to be found)

Matthew Morrison and new wife Renee Puente as Vincent Vega and Mia Wallace from Pulp Fiction

Amber Riley as a cheetah

Darren Criss as El Salvador and girlfriend Mia Swier as Dolly Parton so it’s a play on the name Salvador Dali

Like I said, if new pictures arise, I’ll deffo add them in! But for now, that’s it! 😀 Who’s costume is your favourite? I think Becca and Jacob’s is adorable, but Chris’ is so clever! Anyways, have a Happy Halloween! Don’t eat too much candy! (Also, I’ll try to blog again soon but idk it depends on when new info/news is released and how busy I am. Follow my twitter @AVeryMagicGleek for quicker short updates).

P.S. If you don’t have spooky plans tonight, maybe you should check out Starkid’s new musical that’s being released to Youtube at 8 EST and 7 Chicago time. It’s called Ani and it’s a Star Wars Parody. I don’t know much about SW but I’m still excited! 😀

Listen To The ‘Bash’ Songs!!!

What a surprise we got this morning when the songs from next Tuesday’s episode ‘Bash’ were released. This is the first First Listen Friday in a while. Unfortunately, since no one saw it coming, I was not prepared and therefore, couldn’t post the songs six hours ago. I had to go to school, so that’s why there’s late here. 😦 Anyways, here are the songs. This week, they’re half sad and sullen due to Kurt’s beating and the death of some random kid, and also half strong and upbeat, so it’s an interesting mix. Most of the songs are from musicals, so if you’re into that, then you’ll love the selection. Take a listen:

‘(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman’ (by Aretha Franklin) sung by Mercedes
Yesss Mercedes killing a song! I hope she’s singing this to Sam because that’d be cute. Not Mercedes’ best solo, but still great.

‘Not While I’m Around’ (from Sweeney Todd) sung by Blaine, Mercedes, Sam and Rachel
My guess that this song is what they sing at Kurt’s bedside or something. It’s a haunting song and hearing them sing it so low and slowly is just chilling. But the message is nice. And the fact that all upcoming fights will be put aside to help Kurt is awesome.

‘No One In Alone’ (from Into The Woods) sung by Blaine, Rachel, Kurt and Sam
Another haunting song. They sing this at the small gathering for the dead character. It’s not the best song of the episode, but I have a feeling it may cause a few tears.

‘Broadway Baby’ (from Follies) sung by Rachel and Blaine
Ooooh a Rachel and Blaine duet. These are rare, but always a treat. Unfortunately, this may be my least favourite out of the four they’ve now done (‘Extraordinary Merry Christmas’, ‘One Hand One Heart’ and ‘Don’t You Want Me’). I love Blaine to bits, don’t get me wrong, but Rachel’s voice is the standout here; it’s overpowering. They sing this song at NYADA, I think, so that should be interesting. 🙂 This song is so fun, though! And ironic because both Darren and Lea have been on Broadway, where as none of the other New York characters’ portrayers have.

‘Colour Blind’ (by Amber Riley) sung by Mercedes
I posted about this yesterday, so go check that out! I like this song, and it’s the best Mercedes song of the episode. It’s catchy as heck!

‘I’m Still Here’ (from Follies) sung by Kurt
Wow a Kurt solo! When was the last time we had that? Ages ago. I wonder if this is sung before or after his attack? Not my favourite Kurt solo, or song of the episode, but Kurt’s voice is always so awesomely awesome.

So those are the songs. Personally, I don’t loooove them. I hope that the songs don’t translate to the episode quality, but maybe the emotional factor will save it. But I guess if you love these songs (do you?) then you’ll be in for a great episode! 🙂 See you later, Gleeks!

Amber Riley’s First New Song!

Yet another Glee cast member is gracing our ears with beautifully sung new music! And who better than the always fabulous Amber Riley? Though the date of her album release isn’t yet known, we already have a single. It’s called ‘Colour Blind’. And like Matthew Morrison did in S2, the song will be on Glee sung by Mercedes in 5×15 ‘Bash’. A weird inception type thing….actually I never saw that movie….

We don’t have the audio for the single yet, but today Amber sung the song on the Queen Latifah show, so I’ll share that. And also, we have the Glee version of it, which I’d imagine is pretty much exactly like the official single will be like. So take a listen to the song, which is really awesome. Amber’s voice is sooooo beautiful and the song is gorgeous even though it’s a sad song about dismal life after a breakup.

 

 

I’m excited to hear the rest of the album because they’ll all be great songs….I hope it comes out soon! This song will be up on iTunes April 8th, I think. That’s all for now!
