Gleek

A lot of people feel that Glee ruins a lot of songs. While it is occasionally true, the show has done some pretty good covers:

1. How Will I Know - Made famous by Whitney Houston, the girls of Glee, I feel, were successful in covering this song. With the instrumentals being only a foot stomping and fingers snapping, this remake sounds great.

2. Shake It Out - I have a lot of respect for Florence and the Machine, but I have to say that I like Glee's version a lot more. The Glee cover sounds a little softer in parts, which I like.

3. Singing in the Rain / Umbrella - I love this because I think the mash-up sounds great. The two songs go so well together, even though the two are completely different genres. Opposites attract I guess.

4. Rumour Has It / Someone Like You - I think Adele is a very difficult person to cover, but this mash-up is an instance where I am proved wrong.

5. I Dreamed A Dream - I am almost positive that Broadway people will disagree with me, but I think the cover of this song is fantastic. A duet with Idina Menzel and Lea Michele, the two flawless voices are great together - although it's hard to sound as good as Idina.
