Guest dicktracy Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Glee has already won over the heart of millions of watchers. But the Fox hit TV show has just given us reason to really get into the groove. Rumor has it there’s going to be an upcoming episode of Glee totally dedicated to the ultimate Queen of Pop, Madonna! Her highness has just given the show the rights to her entire catalogue of songs, and according to Entertainment Weekly, an all-Madonna episode in now in the works for next year. That should be reason enough for all of you who are still not tuning in! There’s no word yet on which tracks the cast will tackle. And with a catalogue like Madge’s, we don’t know how they could pick! This is just the beginning of big-name artists collaborating with the show. Apparently, Glee has a lot of upcoming tricks up their sleeve! Check out Popeater to vote on what you think of the Glee-Madonna mashup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dicktracy Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Madonna Donates Her Hits To "Glee" By Wynter Mitchell | Friday, October 23, 2009 2:00 PM ET http://www.tonic.com/article/madonna-donates-her-hits-to-glee/ Fresh off of releasing her compilation Celebration, Madonna is still in a festive mood. According to Entertainment Weekly, the Queen of Pop has given the rights to her catalog to Fox's fall hit Glee. The show from Nip/Tuck producer Ryan Murphy has already been growing a dedicated base of viewers and followers — and for good reason. If you have not seen their rendition of "Single Ladies," its like Footloose meets Friday Night Lights. You know you're doing something right when Madonna sits up and takes notice! Glee is planning an all-Madonna-music episode for early 2010. I must admit I did a jig when I read this fabulous news. Maybe she'd just rather hear covers at this point. Madge has admitted that she gets sick of her own songs. She told The Sun last week that she hates when stores or clubs play her songs just because she's entered the building. "For some reason people think ... that you want to hear one of your own songs. It's usually 'Like A Virgin' — and that is the one I don't want to hear." Considering that she is one-third of a trifecta of amazing icons that make up the soundtrack of my life (Prince/Madge/Michael Jackson), I clutched my pearls upon reading that. Madge, it's your fault your prolific! Ok, so since they've got carte-blanche into the archives of this living musical legend, which songs would you want them to cover? My picks of songs that remind me the most of high school courtesy of Mrs. Ciccone Penn Ritchie: 5. "Burning Up" 4. "Who's That Girl?" 3. "Express Yourself" 2. "Secret" 1. "Don't Tell Me..." *Honorable Mention: "What It Feels Like For A Girl" What's your perfect Glee cover list for the Madonna episode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dicktracy Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Madonna grants rights to her entire catalog to 'Glee' October 21, 2009 | 2:29 pm http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/showtracker/2009/10/madonna-grants-rights-to-her-entire-catalog-to-glee.html Today, the NY Post questioned whether there was such a thing as too much "Glee." At the rate news about the show is devoured, the answer is not yet. The latest? EW.com reports that pop music's leading lady, Madonna, has granted "Glee" rights to her entire catalog. Creator Ryan Murphy teases that an all-Madonna episode is in the works for next year. And that's not all. Apparently, Murphy is trying to get "American Idol" runner-up Adam Lambert to guest star on the show. Next year, "Glee" will be paired with "Idol" on Wednesday nights. What Madonna songs are we sure to hear? Will Coach Sue get down with \a little "Erotica"? Is Rachel in line to sing "Like A Prayer" to Finn? Weigh in below.

Guest dicktracy Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Audience Participation: Madonna Opens Her Catalog to "Glee", But Who Should Sing What? by Ed Kennedy October 23, 2009 The Queen of Pop invades high school.Hide the children! http://www.afterelton.com/TV/2009/10/glee/madonna-speculation So the latest news to leak out of Entertainment Weekly’s upcoming Glee issue is that Madonna has granted Ryan Murphy’s baby full rights to use anything in her catalog for the show. And that the show plans on producing a full blown Madge episode. I’ll wait for a minute while some of you finish squealing. Done? Because the rest of the class wants to hear the rest of the story, and I figure you do, too. So we were just looking at the Material Girl’s catalog, and it includes a huge amount of content from over the years. There’s a sound for just about everyone, and the topics range from sex (Erotica) to politics (American Life). So we got to thinking about what song would be perfect for what character to sing in the all-Madonna episode. I will have my revenge. That’s when the fighting started. And the hair pulling. And the wet willies, which snicks is awfully adept with. Pretty soon things in the newsroom had escalated to purple nurples and the Flying Monkeys were called in to settle everything down before we had to call for paramedics. After all, we wouldn’t want to be dropped from our health insurance carrier over an atomic wedgie. So we're going to let you guys decide. I’m going to list out Glee's primary cast, and what we think they should sing from Madonna’s extensive song list. Your job, in the comments, is to make a case for our choices, or if you have a better idea, one of your own. Then the wise simians that live upstairs (I love that I get to call my boss a monkey and he can't complain!) will choose the best, and we’ll put up a post with them, maybe with some creative illustrations where possible. Sound fun? Great, let’s move to our first cast members… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian John Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 3. "Express Yourself" *Honorable Mention: "What It Feels Like For A Girl" Total 'mo that I am, I was thinking yesterday about which songs they could do on Glee. Apart from the highly obvious "Papa Don't Preach," the above two were also on my list. I also thought "Open Your Heart" and "Sorry" would fit well, based on the current storylines. Thanks for posting all of those articles, Dick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest groovyguy Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 The episode of "Glee <http://www.fox.com/glee>" featuring Madonna's music will not air until sometime next year, but apparently that isn't keeping the show's stars from talking about their level of excitement over it. A few of the show's stars recently spoke to E! <http://www.eonline.com/> about the move, and also had a few suggestions for potential songs. Kevin McHale, who plays Artie (and is not the famous basketball legend of the same name) said that he would like to fashion-forward Kurt sing "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" from Evita <http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116250/>; Jenna Ushkowitz, who plays Tina, said that she would like to do "Frozen" and could easily see Mercedes belting out one of Madonna's hits without a problem. The "Glee" cast is currently flying high, as they will perform during the World Series in addition to having several songs frequently appear in the Billboard Hot 100 <http://www.billboard.com/>. The show itself is on a brief hiatus until November 11, when we will bare witness to an episode all about Artie.

neutrocks Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 There's actually been a video clip from the show featuring the song, so this isn't new. Though, I can't find the actual clip, except someone posting slow motion version of it. It may be due to Copyrights that the original intact have been pulled.

GOD Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Never watched the show. It's like how do you say it in British? No'ma cupa tea. But I will watch this episode. Umm, I wonder if it will help the GH. Would be interesting to see how many copies it sells that week. I doubt it would have a massive effect.

Guest dicktracy Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 http://www.okmagazine.com/2010/01/the-last-word-with-glees-jane-lynch/ The Last Word with Glee’s Jane Lynch January 1st, 2010 11:28 am / Author: OK! Staff Glee’s tough-talking Coach Sue, Jane Lynch, chatted with OK! recently and revealed what YouTube videos is the cast’s new favorite and shared the last thing that made her laugh... Last Song I Downloaded: Madonna’s “Vogue.” I’ve been kind of up on Madonna these days. I grew up in the ’80s, so she provided the soundtrack to my life. I think my favorite song is “Crazy For You.” It’s got such an aching and a longing to it; I know we’re doing that song in the Madonna episode [on Glee].

Brian John Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Maybe there will be mash-ups, as those are a lot of songs for a single episode. Mash-ups are always a possibility, although Ryan Murphy was interviewed a few weeks ago and promised that they'd be doing an average of 8-10 songs per episode in the back nine. http://www.thewrap.com/article/glee-creator-promises-more-musical-numbers-11944 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jamesshot Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 This is great PR for Madonna. As far as it making an impact on sales of Celebration that will depend on the CD getting acknowledged at the end. I imagine it would see a big spike then. If not, it will have an impact just much less. The individual songs will see huge spikes on Youtube and I-tunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 She could nab a few extra sales on the GH with this episode. SO MANY poofs watch Glee, they'll all go pick up their Madonna hits after watching it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
