"'Glee', TV's New Hitmaking Machine"
How the smash musical comedy scored with Journey, Queen covers by Nicole Frehsee
When the creators of Fox's Glee gathered to screen the pilot of the high school choir comedy, they called in a special consultant: former Journey singer Steve Perry. "We were all biting our fingernails," says the hit show's musical director, Adam Anders, who reworks classic tunes and pop hits - including "Don't Stop Believin'" - into Broadway-style numbers. "He sat there, silent, and when the song finished, he said 'Can I meet whoever produced this? It's great.'"
Perry isn't the only fan: Hours after the Glee pilot aired on May 19th - it followed American Idol's finale - the cast's Journey cover shot to Number One on the iTunes chart; it has sold more that 500,000 digital downloads to date. The song is just one hit spawned by the show since its debut: Covers of Rihanna's "Take A Bow", Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline" and Queen's "Somebody To Love" have all popped up in the iTunes Top 10, and more than 2.5 million singles from the show have been downloaded. "We didn't think the music would be this explosive," says Rob Stringer, chairman of Epic/Columbia, Glee's label. "It's hard to sell music these days, but this proves that if you're on prime-time TV, you can get into people's homes and get them excited."
In November, Glee: The Music, Volume 1 - a 17-song set that includes a choir-backed rendition of Kanye West's "Gold Digger" and a jazzy take on Billy Idol's "Dancing With Myself" - debuted at Number Four on Billboard's Top 200. "We think it will be a very big gift item this year," says Amazon's Drew Herdener. Volume 2 - featuring Kelly Clarkson and Van Halen covers - is due out December 8th, and future installments are planned for next year. "People love interpretations," says Stringer, who has also signed the show's eight stars to record deals. "Plus, we use great songs that can withstand the transition."
Glee's creator, Ryan Murphy, helms the song selection. "It's a very organic process," Anders says. "We just shoot ideas back and forth." So far, only one artist has turned the show down: Bryan Adams, whose "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You" Anders wanted for a love scene.
Big mistake: The original versions of Glee's covers have seen a substantial sales bump, sparking the interest of artists from Cyndi Lauper (she successfully lobbied for a "True Colors" cover) and Gavin DeGraw (he sent Anders his CDs). "Billy Joel's manager called me and said 'Billy wants his songs in Glee - you need to help him,'" says Anders, who is prepping an all-Madonna episode set for 2010. "I said, 'Cool. I'll see what I can do.'"

Jenna Ushkowitz Seventeen Interview
Glee's Jenna Ushkowitz, who plays shy singer Tina on the show, took a break from glee club practice to drop by Seventeen and chat! See what she had to say about getting hit with cameras, her character's speech impediment, and what songs she's looking forward to! The next Glee episode airs on Fox next Thursday! If you aren't a Gleek already, you better check it out!
17: You had more of a musical theater background before Glee. What's the transition to TV been like?
Jenna Ushkowitz: It was kind of crazy. I hadn't really done a lot of TV, except Sesame Street when I was younger. The hardest part of Glee in particular is that we are singing and dancing on a real stage with a camera right there in your face, following you around while you're dancing.
17: Are you ever afraid of the cameras?
JU: I got whacked on my hand when I was doing "Don't Stop Believing". It was this huge bruise on the bone, it was so bad. Physically I am afraid of the camera because we have to dodge it and then sometimes it'll be on somebody [else] so you have to keep dancing in case they get your hand, but at the same time, you're like making funny faces at the person who's on camera.
17: What is the shooting schedule like?
JU: It's insane. Eight days an episode. If we're not shooting, we're rehearsing. And so we'll have demo tracks to work with in the dance rehearsals and then the next day after we record that night, they'll send us a scratch copy of what we did so that we have our version. But it's a lot.
17: Are you guys suggesting songs to the producers?
JU: Always. We have a tactic... I don't know if I should share this [Editor's Note: Sorry Jenna, too juicy not to print!]. Basically we start singing around them, we sing the songs we want to sing, and it makes it feel like it's their idea. But now we've heard that we're doing a full Madonna episode. So, we have now started to brush up on our Madonna library and all of us are singing her songs. I hope she comes to the set, I want to meet her.
17: Is there a favorite that you've all been singing around?
JU: We're kind of pushing for Kurt to sing "Vogue" or "Material Girl".
17: You play Tina, a cute character with a blue hair streak who's a little shy and has a speech impediment. What is that all about?
JU: November 11th, the next episode, Tina's stutter will be explained! I don't want to give away too much, but it comes out from her shyness, her being so introverted and not wanting to talk at all. But, when they cast it, they wanted somebody with a stutter and Tourette's [Syndrome]. So when I auditioned, I had full-on Tourette's. The audition tapes are starting to come out now and I'm kind of scared. It was hard because you don't want to make fun of that, that's not a joke. So the stutter, it got better [over time] and now I find myself actually stuttering sometimes in real life.
17: Does the cast hang out when you're not filming?
JU: We're best friends. We're one happy family. We have "glee-kends," when we bowl, we have sleepovers, and three of us actually live in the same apartment complex, so it's a little like a college dorm.
17: Cool! Let's do some cast superlatives. Who's the most talented?
JU: Amber Riley is the best singer.
17: Who's the hottest?
JU: Kevin McHale.
17: Who's the funniest?
JU: Chris Colfer.
17: Who's the most likely to flub a line?
JU: I have to give it to Lea Michele. She never flubs lines, but she has probably the longest paragraphs in the whole world.
17: Who's the most serious?
JU: Can I do the opposite? Cory Monteith, he's a dufus, I love it.
17: Who has the best hair?
JU: Tina! Can I give a character the best hair? Tina!

Lea Michele Wants Adam Lambert Badly
For weeks, rumors have been circulating that "American Idol" fave Adam Lambert was in talks to appear on an upcoming episode of "Glee," a pop-culture match seemingly made in glammy, gold lamé heaven.
The whole thing appeared to be legit — especially since it was "Glee" co-creator Ryan Murphy who was talking about Lambert's cameo in the first place — but somewhere along the way, negotiations must have hit a snag. Lambert shot down the rumors during an appearance last week on Ryan Seacrest's radio show, saying he hadn't "heard anything officially" from the show.
And with those words, the dreams of millions of Glamberts (and Gleeks) were shattered.
But fear not, because on Thursday, when the cast of "Glee" stopped by the MTV Newsroom to discuss their new album Glee: The Music, Volume 1, we had to ask them about the prospects of Lambert joining the ranks of Josh Groban and Kristin Chenoweth as guest stars on the show. And, as it turns out, things aren't quite as dead as you'd imagine.
In particular, actress Lea Michele — who plays the scene-stealing Rachel Berry on "Glee" — seemed determine to work with Lambert, no mater what it took to make it happen.
"I love Adam Lambert! I want to sing with him so badly," she said. "If they don't let me [sing with him] on the show, I would just in life. I just want to sing with him so badly. He's just such an incredible vocal performer, and I'm such a huge fan.
"I feel like I'd be getting to work out at the gym with the best trainer in the world," she continued. "You want to work out with someone who's ripped and is going to train you well. That's what I think about when I think of Adam Lambert. I just think he's awesome."
See, she used a personal-trainer metaphor — things must be serious indeed.

Glee Wants Bruce Springsteen
If you’ve read the Glee cover story in the latest issue of EW, you know there’s one artist above all whose music the Fox series’ brain trust is aching to take on: Bruce Springsteen. “I think Bruce is our next holy grail,” Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy told EW. “My musical tastes begin and end with him basically,” added co-creator Brad Falchuk.
This is all strictly hypothetical for now. Springsteen’s camp had no comment when asked if he’d be interested in licensing his music to Glee. But hey, that’s no reason not to get some early speculation going — because this is an awesome idea.
Okay, sure, so Springsteen doesn’t make quite the same kind of campy pop-rock showstoppers as previous Glee inspirations like Journey or Queen. So what? Anyone who’s seen Springsteen in concert knows how great his tunes sound when they’re being belted out to the farthest row. Just imagine the Glee kids going to town on “Born to Run” or “Rosalita” or (wild-card choice here) “Murder Incorporated.” I could even see a slower number like “4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)” or “I’m on Fire” getting the Glee treatment. And that’s not even counting Springsteen’s actual singalong-ready pop hits like “Dancing in the Dark” and “Hungry Heart.”
What do you say? How cool would it be to see the Glee cast cover Springsteen? Which of his songs would you like them to tackle? Make your suggestions below — who knows, Fox and/or the Boss himself might be reading…

Don't Stop Believin' Goes Gold, Music Passes 2 Million Mark
In yet another sign that Glee has gone from smash comedy hit to cultural phenomenon, the cast's rendition of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" has just been certified Gold for digital sales in excess of 500,000 downloads, and to date, over two million Glee songs have been purchased online. Seven songs from Glee now occupy spots in the top 200 of iTunes' Top Songs chart and Newsweek recently observed that the FOX series' "rabid online fanbase has given the show's music a life of its own." It's this fervor for the music that prompted the New York Times to say "from Cabaret' to Kanye, Songs of Glee' are a hit" and the Los Angeles Times to add "this comedy has become music to our ears."
On Tuesday, November 3, Glee: The Music, Volume 1 hits stores. This highly anticipated debut soundtrack will feature 17 songs heard in Glee's first season (see below for full track listing). Glee has set itself apart as one of the few scripted television shows to feature music so prominently and successfully. Entertainment Weekly recently stated that Glee was able to accomplish this "by making music so catchy and addictive, it's taken on a life and revenue stream of its own." They also went on to proclaim "the snarky, theatrical series is a cult phenomenon on its way to becoming a national obsession."

Upcoming Song Spoilers
While we won't be seeing a new Glee episode until Nov. 11 due to Fox's coverage of the World Series, we have a peek at some of the cover tunes you'll be hearing in upcoming episodes. The Nov.. 11 episode "Wheels" features a soaring "diva-off" between Rachel (Lea Michele) and Kurt (Chris Colfer) over Wicked's "Defying Gravity"—be prepared to get misty. Also, Artie (Kevin McHale) and the club do a wheelchair number set to Tina Turner's "Proud Mary." In the coming weeks, look for group versions of Van Halen's "Jump" and John Lennon's "Imagine," which the glee club performs with a rival deaf choir. Says co-creator Ryan Murphy, "Everyone who sees it sheds a tear." Also, Finn (Cory Monteith) does Paul Anka's "You're Having My Baby" and Rachel will tackle the Barbara Streisand/Funny Girl classic "Don't Rain on My Parade". "It was my dream and I could not believe that I got to do that song," says Michele.

Matthew Morrison Reveals Plans For Solo Album
Matthew Morrison is keeping busy helping the kids of “Glee” hit a high note on the small screen. But off-screen, the Broadway-turned-primetime star will soon be busy making beautiful music all his own.
Matthew, who plays “Glee” club mentor Will Schuester on the hit FOX show, revealed to Access Hollywood he will soon be working on his own album.
“Right now, I’ve almost finalized a record deal and am going to be working on an album,” he told Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush.
And what sort of sound does America’s favorite teacher envision for his debut release?
“It’s going to be different. I would consider it a classier Justin Timberlake album,” he revealed. “It’s going to be me and a big orchestra, but also with beats.”
“Kind of like Timberlake meets [Michael] Buble?” Billy asked.
“Exactly,” Matthew said.
Of course, music is nothing new to the 30-year-old star. A veteran of Broadway, Matthew’s stage credits include “Footloose,” “The Rocky Horror Show,” “Hairspray,” “South Pacific” and “The Light in the Piazza,” which earned the actor a Tony nomination in 2005 for his role as Fabrizio Nacarelli.
But conquering different mediums is all part of the master plan, the thesp revealed.
“I want to be like the next Gene Kelly. I want to kind of do it all,” he noted. “I want to have a career in movies, television, music and Broadway – but have them all be separate, their own entities.”
And while Matthew isn’t the only “Glee” star planning their own solo album — show creator Ryan Murphy told Billboard that Lea Michele (another former Broadway star-turned-“Glee” club member) is also considering a solo project — one endeavor Matthew won’t be sharing with his cast mates is the reported show tour set for summer 2010.
“You probably know as much as I do about it. I just read about it online,” Matthew joked with Billy. “I don’t think I’m going to be involved in that. Mr. Schuester likes to take his summer break.”
'Macy's... Parade' Rejection Being Worked Into An Episode
And finally, Murphy also says that he’s planning on using the whole NBC/Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade snafu into an upcoming episode. Look for the glee club to get denied from having a float in the spring festival parade thanks to the villainous Sue Sylvester (Jane Lynch), standing in for NBC.

Glee's Holiday Cheer, and Future Cast Solo Projects
Now that the show's download surges have established a weekly rhythm, Stringer and Bywater can focus their attention on the release of "Glee: The Music Volume 1," the first in a series of soundtracks featuring music from the show. The 17-song set will feature some of the most popular numbers from the season's first half. Columbia and Fox hope to attract casual buyers as well as the show's rabid fans.
"We think there will be a huge population of passive buyers walking through stores during the holidays and saying, 'Oh, I've seen "Glee," ' and picking up the record," Bywater says. "I think we'll see considerable sales in the Wal-Marts, Targets and Best Buys of the world."
In addition to the soundtracks, a cover of Wham's "Last Christmas" will be recorded by the cast, and although it won't air on the show, the song will be released as a single by mid-November.
As for long-term plans, a much-rumored cast tour is now in the initial stages of planning. It will likely occur in summer 2010, and Murphy will direct the show. A deal with a concert promoter is pending, he says, noting, "We're going to sit with them all in a couple of weeks and feel out the best vibe."
Another less-talked-about component of Columbia's deal with Fox is that the label has the option to sign members of the "Glee" cast to solo deals. But Stringer says the label isn't rushing to do this anytime soon, as it's committed to the show for more than one season.
" 'Glee' isn't even anywhere near where it will be in a month or year's time," he says. "The show will be five times bigger than it is now, just from word-of-mouth, so we're not in any panic or rush to overplay things, because there's plenty of time."
That said, it appears that one of the show's brightest stars has at least been sitting with label executives to discuss what her own material might sound like. "Lea has tried different songs and already thought, 'Maybe I like doing rock,' " Murphy says. "Her album is not going to be Broadway stuff. She'll sit with producers and come up with her own concept."
As for whether any other cast members have had talks with Columbia, Michele will only say, "I have no idea, but all I know is that as soon as Amber Riley [who plays Mercedes] makes her album, I'm going to be the first one buying it."
However popular "Glee" becomes in the near year, or two, or three-that's as many as Murphy has mapped out so far-it's clear the show has legs in more than one sector of the entertainment business. And through its partnership with Fox, Columbia knows that it's landed on a winning formula.
"I'd like to have 10 'Glees'-my life would be a lot easier," Stringer says. "So, do I want to continue to be in this business? Absolutely."
