zeppphead Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Even before last week's all-Madonna episode of Glee aired, Britney Spears's manager was lobbying for a Britney-centric episode. And just like that, it appears to have worked. Last night, Glee creator Ryan Murphy told EW that he's into the idea of bringing Britney to William McKinley High. "I'm interested in the Britney Spears idea. I've always loved her. I'm entertaining it. I think young kids would like that." But it's not just the young kids Murphy would like to please. He also says that he's contemplating doing similar hour tributes to Led Zeppelin, Billy Joel and , and, even, Courtney Love! "I actually ran into Courtney Love the other day and talked to her," says Murphy. "She's interested. I would love to have the kids do a Courtney Love episode one day." But he stresses that with all of these artists it really all comes down to the music and how it fits in the Glee universe. "The key is the songs in the catalogue have to have a certain degree of theatricality," says Murphy. More: EW Quote
Taylore Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 I really don't think that would go over well... Quote
MisterMcLov1n Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 No thank you. Did you see how they destroyed Stairway to Heaven on American Idol? I love Glee but I prefer the ironic pop songs over class rock. Quote
Lunacy Posted April 24, 2010 Posted April 24, 2010 Hell no. Wth. I only saw them sing one song, it was Highway To Hell. Just terrible. Quote
Memphis Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 If it goes through...I think it'll be interesting to see what the show and cast come up with...it's a whole new media and will introduce a new generation to the music. Some Led Zeppelin fans are too funny with this "mine mine mine" attitude "Precious, precious, precious!" Gollum cried. "My Precious! O my Precious!" Quote
Yupter Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 If so, can they please not pick the most obvious songs!? To the common person, it would appear Led Zeppelin only managed to accomplish four to six songs *And by the way, is that Jimmy Page figurine going to be in Toy Story 3 IMAX 3D or what? Where are the RP, JPJ, and JB figurines? My GI Joe Platoon is incomplete without the Led Zeppelin Fireteam Quote
Virginia Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 As long as Rachel isn't the one singing ... (well, maybe she could sing D'yer Mak'r or however you spell it). Quote
Memphis Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 ^ lol I'm still waiting for Zeppelin--the Led Zeppelin musical about a boy and his friends going to California haha Quote
Scott78 Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 I sure hope they don't cover anything . They already ruined Journey's song with their terrible version . Most teenagers all think the Glee one rocks ! and the original is just ok ! This show is not for rock . Let them cover some pop band instead . Quote
NickZepp Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 A bunch of teenage girls doing Zeppelin makes my stomach churn. MJB can't even sing Stairway well. Quote
Janet Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 I sure hope they don't cover anything . They already ruined Journey's song with their terrible version . Most teenagers all think the Glee one rocks ! and the original is just ok ! This show is not for rock . Let them cover some pop band instead . If you were a White Sox fan in 2005 when they won the World series and their theme song was "Don't Stop Believin", you would never be able to watch Glee. Quote
zdr Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 ^ lol I'm still waiting for Zeppelin--the Led Zeppelin musical about a boy and his friends going to California haha Starring: Len Zefflin Quote
Led_Zeppelin_Chick Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 You can't be serious. They really should only cover pop songs, rock can't be covered the way they are trying to. I hate that show, no offense to anyone. Quote
