I wanna be on the show glee so frickin bad
I love it when sue sylvester gets mad
I wan be doin covers of everybodys favorite songs
With jenna uskowitz and fins mom

Oh mr schuster hear my cries
Ill show up every
Tuesday night
Ill take Mark Salling out and buy him fries I see
Oh we, really love to see

little chorus with that Heather Morris
pushing Artie's wheelchair, makin fun of Williams hair you could write me in as Rachel Barry s boyfriend like
Jesse never happened and she aint never had Finn
let Mercedes have a solo like, here diva have this
and take a spot behind her just singin and dancin
it would be a blast to be a Cheerio so

Hummel and my boy Cory Monteith

Oh mr schuster hear my cries
Ill show up every Tuesday night
Ill take Mark Salling out and
buy him fries I see
Oh we, really love to see
our favorite show Glee

oh whoah oh whaoh

oh whoah oh whoah

I'll be playin football with the Titans, man
Hate vocal adrenaline
Watchin screeners with
Idena, Theba and Coach Ken
Learn the moves to single ladies, me and Quinn will have some babies
Rock Mckinley High like

So what if we didn't place at regionals
the New Directions never stop
They're multi seasonal
Signed up for three

Yo...I'm Popular like Ryan Murphy

I know we all have a similar dream
Cue the bearded guy with the piano, everybody yell glee

CHORUS

I wanna be on the show glee so frickin bad
I love it when sue sylvester gets mad

With jenna uskowitz and fins mom
Oh mr schuster hear my cries

Light My Candle

RENT AT THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL!!!
Really really liked it but did not LOVE it. Skyler Astin and Aaron Tveit rocked it as Mark and Rodger!!! Anthony Rapp and Adam Pascal will always be those characters for me but Astin and Tveit did an amazing job at bringing these characters to life. Vanessa Hudgens was bad as I expected. She just tried tooooo hard and it showed. She started off weak and great stronger with each song.The stand out performance came from Nicole Scherzinger. If the Hollywood Bowl would have had a roof she would have blown it away. She brought her A game to the table and killed it as Maureen. By far the best performance of Over The Moon I have EVER seen.

NPH did a great job of trying to keep in tact the overall feel of the orginal production but he did make many small changes. I missed the extra phone calls and homeless songs between the big numbers that were cut down for the show. Overall it was a fun rendition of the show but the orginial with the orginal cast is the BEST!!! The highlight for me was seeing Mr. and Mrs. Larson after the show at stage door. It was an amazing!!! God Bless those parents for being so supportive of the RENT community:)
