From 2009 to 2015, “Glee” burst into song on the Fox network. The musical TV series about group of outsiders in an Ohio high school finding a purpose and community through song pulled in millions of viewers and produced numerous musical singles that charted on radio, iTunes, and beyond, with a collective 36 million singles purchased digitally and 11 million albums sold worldwide. While the show’s legacy has been tarnished by a stunning number of scandals and tragedies, it also minted several bona fide superstars and introduced Millennials to 20th Century popular music and Broadway classics. Ten years after the show’s finale, the Great Pop Culture Debate wanted to look back at the 750-plus tracks performed on the series and attempt to name the Best “Glee” Song of all time.

Songs discussed: “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” “Don’t Stop Believing,” “Somebody to Love,” “When I Get You Alone,” “River Deep Mountain High,” “Cough Syrup,” “I Say a Little Prayer,” “Make You Feel My Love,” “Don’t Rain on My Parade,” “Landslide,” “Maybe This Time,” “If I Die Young,” “Rumor Has It/Someone Like You,” “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going,” “Halo/Walking on Sunshine,” “Teenage Dream”

Join host Eric Rezsnyak and all-Millennial all-star GPCD panelists Andrea Guerrero, Gary Jackson, Jake Pitochelli, and Trey Radu-Blackburn as they discuss and debate 16 of the slushiest songs from “Glee.”
