Weeeeelll.....

I have never watched a single episode of Glee.....nor am I interested in doing so....but.....(and at great risk of reputation and ridicule...) I thought this was pretty good!!

Over sang in places (do you REALLY need to try and hit every note with every octave you can reach??) but I have heard this song butchered so many times....I thought they did a good job. Especially the chorus.

Not taking anything away from the effort, but I wonder how many musical directors worked on this? Very polished and lots more voices/blends of style than our beloved original.

Keeps TS in mind of the public. This is international TV folks!! I like that. As Mr Simmons notes....no such thing as bad publicity!!

Alright. So I've watched Glee before. Not regularly, but on occasion.

there.

I said it.

I sang in high school. fucking shoot me, okay?

That all said.... I did like the rendition--it wasn't really heavy metal to me, but by Glee standards, it was pretty good. Believe me, it could have been much much worse.
At least it had a red and black bullseye Fender and a cowbell. And if it means a new generation of kids will get turned on to Twisted Sister, there's absolutely nothing bad about that!

Pretty good cover!!

I'm surprised though the kid in the beginning had Paul Stanleys Star on his eye for decoration??
