Beginning today, Glee fans can vote from a list of 30 iconic Glee songs. The top 10 winning tunes will be performed in a special episode, airing March 18, celebrating the musical comedy’s 100th episode.
As the seniors prepare to graduate, they will look back at memorable moments. I’m guessing this is where the re-imagined performances come in. What stinks, though, is the songs will be sung by the current New Directions. So, look forward to Blaine and Sam singing “Defying Gravity,” or Marley singing “Take a Bow.” UGH.
By my calculations, it’s Episode 12. Checking out the list, the majority of the songs come from season 1 and 2. Which Glee songs are your favorites? Or want to see ruined by the newbies.
Check out the press release below.

Over in New York, Kurt (Chris Colfer) also runs into control issues when the band disagrees over the venue of their first official gig that Kurt booked. Meanwhile, Sue (Jane Lynch) reveals the story behind her iconic tracksuit and gets in touch with her feminine side.
