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.

Happy New Year!
It's 2013! A new year calls for a new beginning, so today I will share with you a couple of artists I hope to see more of this year:
1. Conor Maynard - He is a British-born singer who found his fame from YouTube and winning an MTV contest, Brand New for 2012. His first single was released in April of 2012 in the UK.
2. Florence + the Machine - This band's debut album "Lungs" was released in July 2009 and was followed by "Ceremonials" in October 2011. Even though most know the band, I still don't hear much of them on the radio and I would love to.
3. Britt Nicole - I just bought her song "Gold" on iTunes because I love her voice. I saw the music video for the song last week on teennick and thought she was absolutely amazing.
Of course there are the artists I am not too excited to see this year:
1. Psy - We all know his song "Gangnam Style" and while we thought it was catchy, we actually can't stand it. I admit, I tried learning the dance but the song was way overplayed for my liking.
2. Carly Rae Jepsen - I think Carly Rae Jepsen seems very nice and she's a good singer, but "Call Me Maybe" makes me and a lot of people want to call her never. Again, another song they played way too much.
