Dream on is dramatic

Don't Rain On My Parade is still ICONIC and should be in the top 10. Glee introduced that song to a new generation of audiences and Lea set a high bar for it. Should also include To Love You More, probably Rachel's best solo in the show. She literally held the last note for 20 seconds in one breath. Faithfully doesn't get a lot of credit, it's very difficult to sing and the fact that Cory and Lea managed to sing the entire song and sustain the high notes is nothing short of incredible. Listen to the full 4 minute version for the whole experience. Should also include Like A Prayer and The Scientist, both Glee versions I love a lot more than the original versions. Plus the song that won them Nationals, Paradise By The Dashboard Light and It's All Coming Back to Me Now ❤ ❤ ❤

Agreed. She may have been a pain behind the scenes, but she KILLED it and made her version of Don't Rain on my Parade her own and not just an homage to Babs.

the fact that Amber Riiley won an Oliver award for playing Effy in the London west end performances of Dreamgirls, proves that the song is a blessing for everyone who can pull it off!!!

@porfiriodiazcarillo7551 Except, Amber missed so many performances (last-minute announcements that she wouldn't be appearing and that her understudy would be on as Effy instead) that the production - otherwise a hit - ended up losing money, thanks to all the people, show after show, who'd bought high-priced tickets but then demanded refunds when they arrived at the Savoy Theatre for a performance & were told that Amber was out... again. Amber had pneumonia at one point and announced a medical leave so she could recover (not her fault, could happen to anyone), but even after she returned to the production and was theoretically performing again, she took so many last-minute days off that the show's producers were stuck making excuses for her... and returning money to ticketholders who'd bought high-priced premium seats, hoping to see Amber performing live. I don't know what was happening to Amber during that "Dreamgirls" run, but despite giving an Olivier-winning performance in a famously difficult role, she sadly now has a reputation in the theater community as being unreliable as a live performer. Right now there are no announced plans to bring that Dreamgirls production to Broadway - even though Amber has even more fans in the US than she does in the UK - possibly because producers are afraid to cast her in a role that requires her to show up & perform 8 shows a week (or even just 5 shows a week, with an alternate doing matinees so the star doesn't have to sing 2 shows in one day). That's because when Amber was there & singing it was amazing, but she let down so many audiences by not showing up that producers are afraid to cast her... for good reason.

Glee 50 years later

Jonathan Groff absolutely nailed it! Bohemian Rhapsody is number 1, no doubt!

Paradise by the Dashboard Light also deserves a mention. It's one of the hardest songs in the show and the entire cast was so proud of Cory for pulling it off. As does Don't Rain On My Parade, the only song cut from the Glee Concert because Lea herself doubted her ability to perform it on a nightly basis. And while the song was cut, Lea's went on record to say that I Was Here by Beyonce was the hardest song she recorded. As people have said, too, Not Getting Married Today & Faithfully deserve shoutouts, too.

Paradise probably had Cory's best vocals on the show, he really pulled it off so well. I Was Here shouldn't have been cut, I loved the graduating episode but it should've been split in two episodes.

She was and is incredible. She won an Olivier Award for her role in Dream Girls.

Will singing "Fix you" to Emma is such a beautiful moment and probably the only moment I can 100% see why they were meant to be. "Dream on" is an epic moment from Glee!

Dream On is iconic ❤

the one i think is missing is “I Have Nothing” sung by Kurt in season 3. Chris Colfer mentioned in an interview that it was the hardest song he had to do in the whole show, and i think he nailed it.

One of the worst cover on Glee for sure

Don’t Rain on My Parade is soo hard!

Also any song w Adam Lambert (just like the songs w Jonathan Groff) was impressive as well as Santana’s Valerie, Songbird, basically (very similar to AR & LM) everything she sang was fabulous! Altho Bohemian Rhapsody would definitely have been my #1 choice & tbh, Dream On would likely have been #2. Lastly, the complete lack of DC songs is incomprehensible, his Cough Syrup was beyond memorable, as well as well, everything else.

I loved Glee then and miss it today.

I think My Man should be higher on this list. It’s one of the most difficult musical theatre songs ever, and Lea fucking kills it. There is a reason why the song is rarely performed. I would have it in the top three, at least.

@navidhudson7065

Totally agree, honestly not many can do the song justice or even touch it because it's very difficult. Lea even sang it in front of Barbra herself. Then again msmojo only included don't rain on my parade in honourable mentions....

Justice for “Ain’t No Way”, “To Love You More”, and “Getting Married Today”

I love me some Amber Riley but there are some Santana moments missing from this list. And Gangnam Style. Poor Tina.

The most stunning part of the Dream On performance is the local theater director not casting Brian Ryan in a lead role.

Surprised "Not Getting Married Today" didnt make the list

@maziebunny2

I'm surprised, too. One needs a great deal of breath to rush through that. Even I cannot breeze through it...let alone perfect Mercedes' solo verses.

I always remember Mercedes' "I wanna know what love is" and the Duett of "Give your heart a break" ❤

I think people forget Adam Lambert was on this show, and he and Kurt nail “I believe in a Thing Called Love”. That’s an incredibly hard song to sing. It’s originally done falsetto but they belt it. Also, Smooth Criminal is very hard to sing as is Not Getting Married. Maybe ten is just not enough because there’s several more I can think of. I Have Nothing, Ain’t No Way, Barracuda, and All By Myself. There’s more. Fighter, La Jazz Hot - the note at the end- not easy. Hey Jude- Darren hits a Bb5. Basically, this is suck a talent cast and they make it look easy.

Dream on is amazing, i still listen this version more than the aerosmith original and also get it right & as long as you're there from the original song episode & cough syrup by Darren Criss

I saw Matthew Morrison in concert back in 2016, and it was absolutely perfect! I would do it again in a heartbeat!

My Man is one of the most striking performances in Glee. It gives me chills every single time

I am sad and really surprised to see Naya Rivera's Santana is not on this list. I can't think of songs off hand she's sung but were very difficult ones, which she pulled off like a pro.

Total eclipse of the heart is my favorite

Pretending and to love you more, rolling in deep should 100% should of been on there

This was such a great video to watch. It brought back a lot of wonderful memories I had with my teenage daughter, who is now 26. We found an abandoned 2 week old kitten the year it premiered, which she still has, and named him Finn. We both cried when Cory Monteith, who played Finn Hudson, and was there since the beginning, passed 😢. Thank you so much for posting 😊.

Jonathan Groff is EVERYTHING ❤❤❤

You should do a "More of the Hardest Glee Songs to Sing" and then feature the songs mentioned in the comments as well as I Know Where I've Been from season 6, sung by Alex Newell!

I have so much love for this programme. And especially now I watch it to remember Cory & Naya.

Wow a actual good list of glee songs that I agree with all of yes glee was really problematic I guess but it’s my favorite show of all time no exceptions and I will defend it forever

Fix you is one of my favorite songs!

Saving All My Love For You All the times they sung 🎶You🎶 I can't sing without my cracking. Talented people.

Nice ❤ u should make one with glee best girlfriends

I know im late but how about when rachel sings its all coming back to me know at nationals

i did don’t rain on my parade for my highschool talent show and shocked my family who had never heard me sing like that. I kinda blacked out while singing it but the video was great

If I may add another mention in the form of Kurt's take on "I Wanna Hold Your Hand". Okay I know what you are thinking that it is easy but in my case, I can't sing this where the first time it aired, my dad was having heart surgery and sadly, he would have been 75 this year. Is that reason enough?

Rose's Turn should have at least gotten an honorable mention

Still love this show and I will forever

Where's "Bring Him Home?!" This list is missing Santana's "Valerie" and "Girl on Fire."

How about "I Know Where I've Been" by Unique? I actually think Alex Newell did a better job that Queen Latifa.

I’m sorry but I refuse to believe “River deep, mountain high” is not on here, Mercedes riff and how high the chorus goes, how is it not mentioned whatsoever

I’m surprised Santana wasn’t on here at all. Naya Rivera and Amber Riley were two of the most talented singers on the show imo

MsMojo forgot to mention Total Eclipse of the Heart was also on the season five 100 soundtrack (recorded by Will and April, just not performed in the show)

Not Getting Married Today was a masterpiece not soon forgotten!!

Mercedes and Kurt are the best singers They should have been the main focus of Glee

As crazy and obsered as the Bo Rap number is, I love it! The choreography is great. This is when they were at their best. What does the fox say is weird in a bad way. The worst number they ever did.

Charice is also slayed here

Maybe I'm weird but I prefer Carol King's version of "Natural Woman" maybe because I listened to it so much when her Tapestry album came out.

I know where I've been deserves to be on this list. Unique most underrated vocalist

Low key wouldn’t mind seeing a reboot of this

6:30 definitely 5 is my favourite ever sung by Mercedes

Something i hated in glee was due to timing restrains, i just wish they were able to play the entire verisons of the songs, and not just a small portion of the songs

The hardest songs I can sing are Don’t rain on my Parade I will always love you I have nothing Faithfully Dream on, but not the high note at the end

I just love Jonathan Groff

Top 5 hardest ones in my opinion Not Getting Married Today Alone Creep Rose's Turn Let It Go

Fix You, Total Eclipse of the Heart, Spotlight, Dream On, Natural Woman, I Will Always Love You, and Bohemian Rhapsody are nowhere near the hardest songs to sing that Glee's ever made. It's like no one on the staff ever watched the show, jesus.

I recall glee never singing live. Wasn't the song recorded before in a studio and then just slapped under the episode. So it wasn't sung and danced at the same time.

Fox anymore heard it’s on Disney+

Amber Riley will always reign supreme in my books!! Her voice always gives me literal chills.

Amber Riley (Mercedes Jones) ain’t no way by Aretha Franklin!!! So underrated

Amber and Mercedes *ICONIC*

Is it bad that I started watching Glee for the 5th time a couple of weeks ago and that I'm currently at the end of season 3? :-)

Pretty accurate list. However, I wish you credited and named the actors/singers instead of the characters. They deserve all the recognition , specially Amber Riley

I wonder what Mr. Schue, Matthew Morrison has been working on lately.

I'm not even a minute in and you already messed it up. Will sings "Fix You" to Emma because she has a mental illness, OCD, and it's causing her a lot of anxiety about their relationship. It's one of my favorite scenes from the show.

These which were used on RuPaul`s Drag Race got the incredible and iconic lipsyncs to them for real

Moral of the story: stan Amber Riley

Here's to us deserve an honorable mention

please tell me how the hell is "Getting Married Today" not on this list?

They simplified DRMP for Santana though.

Strait no chaser nails there cover of fix

Love how this show is a jukebox tv show... not gonna watch it tho lmao

Notice how amber riley consistently makes the list!!!

Rip Cory monteith

According to the commennts i think glee chose the hardest songs ever made to put in the series. There are so many good singers and tough songs either in the video and in the comments

challenge accepted MsMojo

I had to pick one that’s on you probably heard that Rachel has a crush on her teacher

Of exactly a joke Vinny that’s a noob Arifa like the Reese throwing colorful Franklin

and yet even tho Mercedes has an amazing voice and can reach super high notes she was pushed aside so Rachel could be the star …

I am on season 4e12 of glee on Disney plus now and I have 2 more seasons to watch of glee then I am done with that show.

These may be the hardest ones to sing but can we agree that Glitter in the Air is the best song performed on Glee?

Glee musical totally walk with my right leg 🦵 need my sleep know my thoughts Glee club my name is Heather ha

How was getting married today not mentioned or an honourable mention?

High Score Musical!
