'Glee' Recap: New Directions Head to Regionals in 'Original Song'

Adam Rose/FOX The time has finally arrived, where once again that Rosetta Stone almost-mythical (even though everything depends on it) competition the New Directions are preparing for happens. Last night, our favorite glee club headed to regionals to compete against the Warblers and Aural Intensity. The episode was jam-packed with music and saw the debut of three original tunes six if you count some missteps along the way, but well get to that later but the actual songs were almost overshadowed by the kiss between Blaine and Kurt. Heres how that happened ..."Misery" As Ryan Murphy predicted for us, Blaine covers Maroon 5s hit with the Warblers. The group dances through the halls of Dalton Academy to their new opening number for regionals. The song naturally lends itself to an a cappella arrangement that fits comfortably in the Warblers wheelhouse of smooth RB pop, but we Rosetta Stone V3 found ourselves wholeheartedly agreeing with Kurts critique at the end: "Can I be really honest with you, because it comes from a place with caring?" he asks Blaine. "Been there, done that ... Sometimes I dont feel like were the Warblers; I feel like were Blaine and the Pips." Though he admits the critique was sparked by jealousy, Kurts right on."Only Child," "Trouty Mouth" and "Big Ass Heart" Rachels second attempt at penning an original song draws inspiration from growing up an only child of two gay dads: "Im the only Berry on my family tree." Finn smartly encourages her to dig deeper, while Quinn takes the opportunity to back Rachels idea for New Directions to perform original material at regionals. Its part of Quinns use of the "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" philosophy: her Queen Bee Rosetta Stone English ploy to keep Finn as her boyfriend at least long enough to secure prom king and queen means Rachel has to stay out of the picture.Photos: TV on the Cover ofRosetta StoneAs the glee club finds its groove in songwriting (or waits for Max Martin to step in and save the day), we are treated to Santana and Pucks attempts at the craft: Things are still tense between her and Brittany, so Santana writes bluesy ode "Trouty Mouth" for her heterosexual love, Sam ("Grouper mouth, Froggy lips / I love suckin on those salamander lips"). Pucks tribute to Laurens attributes, "Big Ass Heart" doesnt fare much better ("That big ass heart can pump two tons of love through her chest / And then sit down and win a lovin pie-eating contest"). The whole thing comes off as awkward-funny rather than funny-funny.The Top 10 Beatles Songs of All Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 Time"Blackbird" As the New Directions struggle with song, Kurt is struggling with the death of his warbler, Pavarotti.
