Glee Season 5 premieres Thursday September 26 with the first of a two part Beatles tribute.
The album of Beatles covers will be available on Tuesday September 24, but between now and then, song previews will be available.
The first is the 1967 song “All You Need is Love,” first performed by the legendary band on Our World, the first live global television link. Beamed across the world, on June 25, 1967, the broadcast was watched by 400 million people.
“All You Need is Love” is sung by Blaine (Darren Criss) at Dalton with 4 show choirs, including New Directions, The Warblers and other former foes, the Deaf Choir and Vocal Adrenaline.
The song is an extravaganza set up by Blaine as his wedding proposal to the love of his life, Kurt (Chris Colfer).
I suspect the performance will be much grander than the recording makes it sound. The song on its own is a little too cheesy and kidz-boppish for my tastes but keep in mind:
1. I’m a huge Beatles Stan. My standards for these songs are high
2. I will probably love the performance. Although I hate the idea of Klane getting engaged, I’ll probably still bawl like a baby when it happens.
So, without further ado, The Beatles’ “All You Need is Love” Glee style:
