most need to shut the fuck up. if you like this band you care for their success. i loved the fuckin format and this is the closest there will be to that. his new project. it isn't just about YOU they are the ones expressing themselves. Glee did nothing but help them become noticed and live their dream and make money so that they can CONTINUE putting out music for the fans so SHUT THE FUCK UP and appreciate it or FUCK OFF
@an4life3504 Actually, Glee had very little effect on their music sales or airplay. The song peaked on the charts way Glee, and sales were affected minimally after it appeared on the show. In contrast, the song's appearance in the Chevy Sonic commercial has sparked major interest, The reason is Glee appeals to a very specific demographic, and seen for only an hour, while the ad is seen a lot by different people.

@BriannaNoob So you're not refuting my point, nor agreeing with it but replying with an unrelated observation....? lol All I stated was that anyone who had a problem with them licensing their song to Glee should shut up and respect their decision. You then replied as if I was crediting Glee with their success....but I wasn't... So I'm sorry your adolescent conflict-seeking behavior failed miserably. Bet you'll reply with a completely irrelevant argument once again...hahahha Man do you suck.
@an4life3504 Wow, I've been on YouTube for several years and that is one of the most immature replies I have ever read. If you disagree with her, then simply explain why. Were the insults necessary? Her reply was rational and had no insults. Your reply was pathetic. No wonder your posts got 16 and 20 Thumbs Down, blocking them automatically. And guess what, if you wrote more cogently and coherently, maybe others would understand your point. Sad.
@an4life3504 Telling others to "shut up" because you disagree with them? Telling @briannanoob that she "suck" because she posted a reasonable comment you didn't think was relevant? And somehow your delusional imagination was able to deduce that her post resulted from "adolescent conflict-seeking behavior." I wonder what psychopathology your posts result from. Grow up, loser.
@an4life3504 Clearly, even you don't understand your own rant. You wrote "Glee did nothing but help them become noticed and live their dream..." And now you accuse Briannanoob of replying "as if I was crediting Glee with their success." And then proceeded to insult her.
READ YOUR OWN WORDS, MORON. You implied that Fun was invisible until Glee "help[ed] them become noticed." Brianna rightfully said that they were ALREADY "noticed." Try thinking before you post.
@an4life3504 Saw the responses so I had to see what nonsense you wrote. You didn't disappoint. Why are you blaming others when you weren't able to express yourself clearly? Brianna's reply was totally appropriate. Maybe you should take a course in writing ... and logic. And etiquette.
why is this song playing on the radio now ?!?!?!?! i heard it for the first time on xm radio like 2 weeks ago. now it's played all the time. love it !
Honestly I couldn't care less about Glee, great music brought me here. I found these guys on the radio not a stupid telivision show that contributes nothing to my life. Thats whats up.
Im sure Fun takes pride in knowing that such a big show wanted to cover their song. Fuck if the producers of Glee wanted to cover one of my band's songs i'd let them.
glee didnt discover shit. there are 1,000 other people involved in finding them, and if all of the so called "music lovers" paid attention to real artists and didnt leave it up to a tv show to decide who/what is good then we wouldnt have such ridiculous comments stating "glee found these guys"
I bet this song gets song of the year! Album here in oregon comes out on february 21st. Those albums will sell faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast!
I'm so glad Glee covered this band. Otherwise I would have never heard of them, especially as I'm from England. And I've fucking fallen in love with them. <3
wow their really good.....i love the guitar. it keeps the beat...i wish i could play like that. my firend played this with their band at a wedding but it was nothing compared to fun
Everyone thinks Glee is bad because they just steal songs to be popular, but they actually lead people to discover new bands, and the bands get fans, so Glee is actually amazing!
If more people knew about this song, maybe in future performances, the "Na na na" part the audience does might be better executed, cuz the band does go back to singing the chorus (& ppl who kept singing the "na na na" part didn't go well). More ppl need to hear this band!
@hahaitsshelly What's funny is it does sound better live than on the album. The recorded version was just released a couple of days ago. The recording is slower and there is a stupid chorus effect in the.....well....chorus. It's still a good song though.
@chabriteside You're absolutely right. I agree. What's funny is that I did end up liking the live version better than the album version. Which really sucks, because there's no live version that's in great quality.
FUN does SUCH a good cover of Glee's original. I'm so proud of Shue for writing such a great song he's a wonderful glee club coach!!!!
