      So I started listening to this Playlist at about 9:17pm and it's now 3:30am. I can see why you are called the singing scientist, your knowledge and ability to get said knowledge across to someone who loves to sing and is a closet singer I have learnt so much from watching your videos. I am a teacher, well I used to be before I was given two years to live. I can recognize your ability to teach from just watching a few of your videos from glee and your other videos. I feel that you should have millions of subscribers. Thank you for your amazing talent and extensive knowledge. 😊

    Some originals we love more, not particularly because they're great or better, but because of the nostalgia attached to them. Some Glee versions we love more, not because they're better, but because it was the first time we heard the songs ever

    For context,
    For Glee's performance of "Roots Before Branches", the reason I liked the version better, was because it was more emotional because she was leaving Lima and Finn, and heading to New York.
    Also for their performance of "How Will I Know", you literally have a powerhouse of the best singers in the show; Kurt, Rachel, Santana and Mercedes.
