  • wish it were only Mercedes...love her voice

  • I had actually never seen rent before this, it was honestly amazing and I would of never heard of it if it weren't for glee! I don't understand why some people think glee ruins these song because they sing them amazingly and they introduce the younger generation to great musicals, movies and people!

  • @smellslikelouis thanks for explaining what I've been trying to explain forever

  • @smellslikelouis same for me......i had to look it up

  • Is it just me, or does this sound low pitched?

  • @stayoceanminded:

    It's "based on". Sorry, I'm such a nerd. XD

  • Alright Mercedes is the best singer so why is rachel the star of the show? Im not trying to be racest but african americans are just like born to sing!!

  • @ChristinaFick Because the show is based off of mostly Racheal's experience.. Mercedes gets other solos but the show does not show that because she is not the main charecter. It is just how the show is written.

  • @ChristinaFick you are being racist black ppl are not the only singers on the planet Rachel is the best singer on a poll of all the glee member Rachel is, Ryan Murphy said that most of the fan mail compliment lea's voice .Rachel is not the star of the show she is however focus as the main protagonist due to her being the true underdog and most made fun of but every character has a story and Ryan make sure ppl see it .white people can sing too not just black ppl god blesses all

  • @MsTreysongz1 Sorry I wasn't trying to be racist. I jsut wish they would let Mercedes sing more on the show! Her voice is amazing. and i never said that African Americans were the only people on earth that could sing good. :)

  • Love this song! It suits Rachel and Mercedes just right!

  • Kinda sucks that they lopped off Joanne's part.

  • I love this song!! they did it great!! but I think it should of been Rachel and Santana who sung this!!!

  • omg shes like so bad and has no vocal skills

  • @MissynKissy What planet are you from?

  • Mercedes, Rachel, and Santana should all sing a song together.

  • isnt the film about lesbians.....xxxx great film and cover though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @GleekChic1998 Yapp, it is :p

  • @GleekChic1998 Uh, the fact it has lesbian characters doesn't make it 'about' lesbians.

  • Love this song... :) might sing this in our musical auditions this year??

  • Mercedes!!! She blew this outta the water.

  • When you listen to this I think it's impossible to tell who really did better they should of danced and acted instead

  • Instead of comparing the song to the original, just be happy that Amber and Lea did the song justice. The writers need to have these two do more duets together. That's my five cents.

  • lea should play maureen and amber as joanne! loved this on the show but i SO wish they did it like the movie/broadway show

  • Im soo loving that last picture!!!

  • Listened to the original version and now this version. Wow, they are absolutly gifted. This version is more upbeat and i love it. Gleek forever. Or was that forever alone?

  • Lea Michele looks so beautiful in these pictures(: I love you Lea

  • im a girl and im striaght and i think they both are sexy

  • As much as i love them, Naya and Heather would NOT be able to pull off this song. Heather is not strong enough to sing either Maureen or Joanne's part.

  • @mswixx12 Naya's definitely strong enough though. I think if she and Amber had sung it together, it would have been cool :)

  • @mswixx12 Naya could. She has a strong voice, like in sectionals. she could pull this off.

  • @mswixx12 I think Naya definately could, but I agree with you, although Heather is amazing, she couldn't pull it off.

  • @mswixx12 I don't see why Naya and Heather would be singing this in the first place? This was used as a Diva Off because Mercedes and Rachel were going for each other's throats, and it's a breakupish song which would be hard to find its way into Britana given how strong their relationship is (although I guess around the time this song was sung, Brittany was with Artie iirc, so I guess it could have worked then).

  • @mswixx12 Look u may not think that they are stronger enough to thing this song but i do and lots of other people and do not say that heather is not strong enough, she may not be but say it in a nicer way like she has a beautiful voice but this song is to powerful, and anyways she is an AMAZING DANCER!!! and naya is beautiful, has an amazing voice and can dance. SNAP. Heather is beautiful, has an amazing voice and can dance. x

  • @brittana1010 they didn't say anything about Heather's dancing and what not. We get it, you love her, but they did not insult her. Its how they feel, and preferring maya and heather to sing this is being the same way back to amber and lea

  • bessong ever

  • This is a pretty good cover. The original will always be better but this is close by! :)

  • nice song

    

  • What episode was this!? I don't remember

  • @mangaczar the one when they have the diva-off and Sue sits in on Glee club for a week(:

  • @mangaczar SEASON 2 Comeback i think!!

  • rachel i luv u ur my idol woo hoo

  • Kurt and Blaine need to do I'll Cover You :) <3

  • i like this song !!

  • lea totally owned this song!! thumbs up if you agree!!!;p

  • im sorry replay button :)

  • They left out Joanne's entire verse wat tha fluff

  • Anyone else find it kinda of cool that Idina Menzel plays Rachel's mom and she was the one to sing this song in Rent?

  • @apRilL11994 when i first started watching glee, i always thought that lea michelle both looked like her and sounded like her... so when idina joined the cast as her mom, i wasn't surprised.. i thought it was a perfect match

  • @apRilL11994 I was just thinking that XD

  • @apRilL11994 anyone find it cool that April rhodes and Shelby are both Wicked ;D

  • Listening to this... and wondering, why did they use it with characters that weren't even dating.

  • Mercedes is my Fav :D

  • Did they ever sing this on the show? Cause I've never heard it before....

  • @SilkeRainbow This is from season 2 episode 13 "Comeback"

  • @UNCgurlie8 Seriously? Well thank you, I'll have to watch that episode again then :P

  • love it!(:

  • Rent is my favorite musical, but I kind of like Glee's version better. I don't know though.

  • @Msbrittanybear they made their own spin on it. They're not saying that this version is any better than the original. If you don't like it, then listen to a different version. Don't put down the people who worked hard to sing this.

  • @Msbrittanybear then don't watch it.

  • im the biggest gleetard around but RENT is my favourite musical of all time, and NO-ONE can sing this song better than Indina & Tracie.. Sorry guys, just my opinion.

    (anyone else think it's funny that Indina was in the original cast of RENT and sang this song and now she plays the mom of Rachel - who also sings this song XD)

  • @BlackShadowMagicxx We;;, First of all, If you are such  a Renthead, You would know her name is Idina, no india idiot.

  • @maggiehallua okay, well, firstly, you don't say 'first of all' if you only have one point. secondly, i'm dyslexic asshole. get a life. at least i spelled the rest right.

  • I ADMIT RENTS TE ORIGINAL AND THEY WEREGREAT BUT THEY SANG IT BETTA THAN THEY DID ESP LEA I LOVE THEM BOTH AND IK MRSC AND KLL RACHEL IN SINGIN ANYWAY LBS

  • I have chills :)

  • love this song!!!

  • This song aint got nuffin on the movie sorry but still awesome!!!!!

  • MERCEDES

  • This duet is good, but woah mama, it cannot touch the movie rent, (not saying that they were trying to).

  • i think santana should of done it with rachel

  • this is good but the duet of this from the movie rent is better check it out

  • necesito saber de que episodio es esta cancion

  • @prdnytaaa i think it was the Diva-Off episode

  • Don't get me wrong, these guys are GREAT. Love them to death

    But the original is better. Just cause I'm used to it. And no one can beat a power duo of Idina Menzel and Tracie Thoms <3

    Though, Amber Riley and Lea Michelle come close.

  • i like the effects spetials ;)

  • the dislike bar is like justin biebers penis..

  • I need them to do a duet at a competition. IT IS NEEDED!

  • goosebumps!!!!! 

  • its ok!!!

  • guess im leaving....im gone

  • The word is "lab" not mac "You can buy all the make-up the lab can make"

  • @lilmisspacman100

    ...commenting on the wrong song? And it IS mac, as in the makeup company...

  • @Chibbykins ive never heard of that. sorry

  • This sucks

  • Pretty funny it's actually kinda a lesbian duet LOL Rent is so cool LOL

  • what was the episode called from this song?

  • Which episode is this in???

  • I want The Tango: Maureen

  • @TotalGryffindork So totally! Or Sam and Mike. Call me crazy, but it makes more sense.

  • Sorry, both Amber and Lea have great voices, but they didn't do a good job on this. I may be a diehard Rent fan but it's the same with Glee to me. I was really hoping they'd have a conflict between a COUPLE because then the song would make more sense. The song's not really about anger; it's about insecurity and acceptance, as well as commitment. Glee really didn't represent that.

  • Rent is forever ruined

  • they should have waited and let brittney and santana sing this!

  • @acinom160 But they do take each other for what they are. This song would be redundant for Santana and Brittney.

  • @acinom160

    BRITTANA

  • @acinom160 This song definitely would have fit Brittany and Santana's storyline, but I think Lea and Amber just sound like Broadway singers and their voices just go really well with it. :) Brittanna NEEDS a duet though!!!

  • @acinom160 ehhhhhhh...I don't think Brittany could have pulled it off. Santana definitely, but Brittany's a better accompaniest than solo singer.

  • @acinom160 they dont have the range to sing a song like this unfortunately.. only girls on this show that can pull this off is rachel and mercedes

  • This is my fav combination for this somg

  • rachel /lea Mitchell killed it

  • @johnnycrazy71 Michele* lol

  • @DCson17 oooo lol next time ill use spell check lol

  • I could listen to Glee songs all day lol.

  • @mamitachocolate I do lol

  • @mamitachocolate that''s what I do :)

  • Nice video. Heart the song!<3

  • immense

  • Who else thinks Puck and Finn should sing 'What You Own' from Rent?

  • @TotalGryffindork they would be amazing singing that!!!

  • @TotalGryffindork Eh..Puck yes; but I really don't care for Finn's voice, especially not with Broadway..xD

  • @MomoTheStrange Haha, I'm not a Finn fan either to be honest, I just thought that they should sing it since its a duet XD

  • @TotalGryffindork

    Oh my God. I didn't know I wanted this but GOD YES. It would be glorious. I will never be able to let go of this idea now. Also your user name is awesome. That is all.

  • love love love this and the last picture is just soo cute

  • OMG this is from Rent :) i love that movie! and Glee!

  • I sang this song to my boyfriend... and he hated it :D But him and I made up.

  • Mercedes= Best voice Rachel= pretty one

  • @MrGummygummy mercedes is pretty

  • @tasshjja 2

    

  • lea michele was really good and made justice to the song but amber riley...

  • Mercedes is probably the most beautiful person i've ever seen.

  • this duet is one of my favs!!!

  • Why the HELL is Ke$ha & Ashley Tisdale in my suggesions!?

  • who orginally sung this

  • @lvhmsgirl96 It's from RENT. It was on Broadway for years and was also made into a movie. I'm not sure who originally sang it on Broadway, but in the movie it was Idina Menzel (Maureen) and Tracie Thoms (Joanne).

  • @Dixiepeachez13 Idina Menzel sang it originally on Broadway. Fredi Walker played Joanne though. The actors of Mark, Collins, Angel and Maureen were both on Broadway and the movie, the rest was re-cast for the movie if I can remember correctly.

  • @lvhmsgirl96 - tracie thoms was the 2nd joanne and idina menzel has always been maureen

  • Comment removed

  • It's from episode 2x13 "comeback"

  • Ironic Rachel's mum sang this in rent...

  • @xxBlueAngelKissxx

    was soo about to write this!!!!

  • I broke the reply button. -_-

  • @Annaxoxo0567 Such a copied comment

  • @JamesDavidMaslow4eva Well.. it's true, I love this song and I keep replaying it :P

  • whoever they bring on after they graduate better be amazing.

  • @MscBlggr I think they should bring the people who didnt win or came in second place on here after they graduate

  • @MsVampirestories True! I really liked the Latina and heavy girls that where on the Glee Project. I can't believe they sent them home. :/

  • this is my solo<3

  • When what episode was this on??

  • I love this version, don't get me wrong, but I do think Rent is better. I think glee takes out the whole actual lesbian meaning of the song. Just my opnion.

  • im not trying to piss anybody off here but i think based on the more recent episodes mercedes has lost some of the qualities that made people love her and it just basically turned into whining but rachel even though gets controlling and supper annoying had always owned up to what she was and thats what i respect and why shes my favorite of the two

  • @katieod1234 I love them both, why pick one over the other when you can have BOTH :)

  • rachel is wonderful but i think mercedes is much better, but rachel gets whatever she wants.

  • I LOVE THIS VIDEO

  • Rape The Replay Button !

  • and for kurt to sing the letter with his mom

  • i want a next to normal number on glee. and for mike to sing electricity.

  • Rachel Berry, you are my role model.... Okay, bye... :D

  • If anyone else picked up on Rachael doing the part in this song of the woman who plays her mother in the show and it made them giggle, thumbs up

  • I was going to reply to everyone who replied to my comment, but then I got distracted thinking about Over The Moon being on Glee. Somehow. It could happen...

  • lol @McKarine i'm quite surpised they haven't done one yet XD

  • its kiss pooky not kiss me!
