'Glee': What's been your favorite performance so far?

It will be yet another Glee-less Wednesday this week due to the World Series (Damn Yankees…and Phillies). So it seemed like an opportune time to look back on this amazing first half of the season. Personally, my favorite performance moment has been Mercedes rafter-rattling version of “Hate on Me.” It probably holds more sentimental value because I was on set that day and got to see it all go down live. Also, I’m completely jealous of the dancing skills of the cast. Why can’t I pop and lock?!

But what’s your favorite Glee number? Here are my choices for the best 10 performances so far:

-”Hate on Me”

-”Somebody to Love”

-”No Air”

-”Take a Bow”

-”It’s My Life/Confessions Part II”

-”Halo/Walking on Sunshine”

-”Keep Holding On”

-”Alone”

-”Don’t Stop Believin’”

-”Bust Your Windows”

    I like them all, but I gotta stick with the one that started it all – Don’t Stop Believin.

    • warped

      Me too!

    • Delon

      I totally agree. They are yet to top that. Leah Michele does an amazing job with this song. Her performance would instantaneously lift anyone out of depression. LOVE IT !!!

    • Pamela

      Ditto!

  • ltb

    sweet caroline

    • ZeeZee

      Sweet Caroline is great! Same with Keep Holding On and Halo/Walking on Sunshine…my ipod hasn’t moved off those three songs since they were added! LOVE THIS SHOW!!

  • Alex

    I loved Kristen and Lea doing “Maybe This Time”.

    • alex

      I agree 100% it was the best

    • Anna

      I completely agree. I also loved the It’s My Life/Confessions mash up.

    • Adrienne

      Me too! That was my favorite along with Don’t Stop Believing <333

    • samantha

      Agree! That’s my top pick: others are “Last Name” by Kristen, Don’t Stop Believing” “Hate on Me”, Goldigger” “Halo” mash up…ok I’ll admit it, I love it all!

    • Nee Nee

      I agree! “Maybe this time” was my fave.

      • Lola

        Don’t get me wrong, I really like Lea but having her sing on Maybe this time with Kristen ruined it for me.

  • Chris

    Top 5:
    Alone
    Push It
    On My Own
    Gold Digger
    Rehab

    • Suzanne

      I love any Schue performances Gold Digger is one of my top three! I loved Push It, and I loved Emma’s “I could have danced all night” but for the ‘kids’ I loved Keep Holdin’ On and Somebody to Love.

    • michelekamay

      Best Duo: Alone
      Best cover: Gold Digger
      Guilty pleasure: Push It / I wanna s*e*x you up
      Better than original: Bust your window
      Best smash: It’s my life / Confessions
      Gleekest: Don’t Stop Believin’

      • Raquel

        Agreed. Well said!

      • queue55

        Ditto!!

      • queue55

        ditto!

      • Baddog

        I agree on all of these! (Except I think Halo/Walkin on Sunshine was a better mash up that Confessions). WOOF!

  • Lemon

    I love them all, but probably “Keep Holding On” – it’s a beautiful musical performance, as well as resonating dramatically within the plot and characters. Beautiful, and beautifully meaningful.

    • Emily

      I concur. This one made me cry, and I could not stop watching it!

    • Stefani

      Agreed entirely!

    • Lime

      Yep! Keep Holding On was the one I’ve rewatched the most. Not just the music, but everyone’s emotions just shone through. Good stuff!

  • rebecca

    SWEET CAROLINE!!!!! that is my favorite song that glee has done.

    • PMD

      Mine too!!! My heart just swooned when Puck came in playing his guitar and dedicating it a Jewish songstress – made me want to convert! LOL!!! Also I love boys that play DB’s on telly only for them to be severely misunderstood (ie Chuck Bass)!

  • Eliott

    Maybe This Time was freakin’ epic

  • Noizeegirl

    All the performances are fun, but I loved the “vitamin” induced Halo/Walkin On Sunshine and It’s My Life/Confessions Part II.

    • Anne

      Agreed! The mash-ups were great. I also really enjoyed Puck’s Sweet Caroline and the gang’s hilarious performance of Push It.

  • Ceballos

    The football team doing “Single Ladies.” I know it’s not quite like the other performances on this show (it wasn’t a rehearsal and it wasn’t a performance for an audience), but it was terrific in a wonderful “I can’t believe this is actually happening” way.

    Also, “Take a Bow”

    • orville

      Absolutely! Sure, it was just dancing, but it was so ridiculous and funny that it’s one of the most memorable moments from the show.

  • MsDaisy

    Making it even more gleeless (for me anyway) is the Yankees will probably win the Series tonight.

  • beth

    my top 5:
    Take a Bow
    Sweet Caroline
    Somebody to Love
    Alone
    Keep Holding On

    *lets be honest though- I love them all and listen to them all repeatedly

  • Jen

    Sweet Caroline for the win!!!

  • Jess

    Somebody To Love
    It’s My Life/Confessions
    Don’t Stop Believin
    I love them all, but those are my top 3. I also like Sweet Caroline a lot.

  • Kate

    Maybe this Time for sure! I got chills!
    But other favorites include: Gold Digger, Bust the Windows (because it was way better in the show than just the clip online), and Don’t Stop Believin’!

  • KelBelNV

    I’m partial to Push It and Keep Holding On. I could (and have) watched those over and over.

  • Anna

    Somebody to Love–I literally punched the air in triumph when they finished!

    • Ann Helen

      Agreed! That was a great number!! I would put Don’t Stop Believin’ and Take a Bow up there as well.

    • Chris

      Somebody To Love and Keep Holding On are the best with No Air coming close. When I listen to Somebody To Love and Keep Holding On I literally get goosebumps.

  • Dalammadt

    1) Keep Holding On
    2) Somebody To Love
    3) Sweet Caroline
    4) Bust Your Windows
    5) Hate On ME

  • robert

    I love them all, but I keep playing KEEP HOLDING ON and the ITS MY LIFE mash-up on my IPOD.

  • jan webb

    Why can’t we see the video in Canada?

  • mh

    Keep Holding On was not only beautifully sung but the sheer power and emotion that all FOUR of the lead kids had during it showing their love and concern for each other was one of the most powerful things I’ve seen on TV. No Air and Don’t Stop Believing were also fantastic.

  • Erin

    I really loved Somebody To Love but i gotta say that Sweet Caroline was probably my favorite so far!

  • Dave

    Don’t Stop Believin’. Always.
    Honorable Mentions, however, go to Halo/Walking on Sunshine, Take a Bow, and Somebody to Love

    3. Bust the Windows
    4 Push It

  • Marianne

    No ones mentioned it yet, but I have a soft spot for “Ride Wit Me”. They seemed to be having so much fun singing that song, it was great to see.

    • Kat

      Totally agree!! it was full of joy! i’m also (still) loving Don’t Stop Believing, Somebody to love and the vitamin episode mashups. and sweet caroline. he’s crazy good looking. i want more artie!!

    • Chris

      I agree, I just wish they gave it a single release…

    • sam

      Agreed, i loved it

  • bridget

    Rehab is the reason i watch the show and I’ve never liked Sweet Caroline until i saw their version.

    • D G

      Alone was my favorite thus far. One of Broadway’s best voices + an incredible Heart song = pure magic. I also enjoyed Quinn sing Say A Little Prayer, mainly because the two back up girls did the entire song without smiles. That’s such a bubbly song and something about the lack of smiles was hilarious to me.

  • Kristina

    1. Somebody to Love
    2. Keep Holding On
    3. It’s My Life/Confessions
    4. Don’t Stop Believing
    5. Halo/Walking on Sunshine

    But I also liked all the others mentioned in the post and pretty much anything Mercedes sings. It’s really hard to choose.

  • Brooke

    Augh. This is a difficult list to come up with!

    1. Bust the Windows
    2. It’s My Life/Confession
    3. Hate on Me
    4. Keep Holding On
    5. Maybe This Time
