If you’re like us, you’ve missed Glee a lot since it came to a close in 2015. If you’re like us, you’ve also wondered what songs that released after the show’s end might have been covered if the series was still airing. Last year, we discussed twenty songs that we thought would be covered if the show were still airing, but a lot of songs are released in a year. So, we’re back with twenty more tracks.
Let’s get into it.
1. Halfway There – ROZES
Anthem is the only word that can somewhat encapsulate the power of this track. Now imagine one of the Glee club’s students singing this optimistic track. It would be everything we’ve ever needed.
2. Juice – Lizzo
Even show choir students need to feel themselves. Lizzo’s “Juice” is the perfect track to accomplish this.
3. Sweet But Psycho – Ava Max
This song reminds us of early Lady Gaga, which Glee covered extensively, so why not give “Sweet but Psycho” a shot? The song soars.
4. Walk Me Home – P!nk
P!
5. NASA – Ariana Grande
This song hailing from Grande’s recent album is so cute, and we could see any couple on the show singing this together.
6. break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored – Ariana Grande
Another track from Grande’s recent thank u, next album, we could very easily see this sassy track performed in one of the many love triangle present throughout Glee’s television tenure.
7. Girls – Rita Ora’s ft. Charli XCX, Bebe Rexha, & Cardi B
For all of its seasons, Glee promoted LGBT+ characters and relationships, and Rita Ora and her posse do the same on this track. A perfect match if there ever were one!
8. Sucker – Jonas Brothers
Here’s one for the boys: imagine three of the men from Glee club uniting to recreate this. Simply, it would be iconic.
9. Fire – Sara Bareilles
One of Bareilles’ most recent songs, “Fire” is soulful track layered with vocals and images. Maybe a Santana solo?
10. I’m A Mess – Bebe Rexha
Bebe Rexha’s “I’m A Mess” is a staple hit at this point, and for good reason. Rexha has
11. Just Got Paid – Sigala ft. Ella Eyre, Meghan Trainor, & French Montana
Whether it be a storyline of someone’s first job or everyone in New York in the later seasons, we could definitely see this making it onto the screen.
12. Ghost – Ella Henderson
This song is still one of our favorites after being released four or so years ago at the time writing this. It is simply because of this that we would love to see it performed on the show.
13. Cut to the Feeling – Carly Rae Jepsen
Here we have one of the best bubblegum pop songs of the decade, and any series could benefit from a little Carly Rae!
14. Flames – David Guetta & Sia
The whole series is set around fighting back against opposing forces, so this song would fit perfectly!
15. Lucid Dreams – Juice WRLD
Glee had no shortage of heartbreak in its storylines, so this track is a must!
16. I’ll Be There – Jess Glynne
I can’t be the only person thinking this song would song amazing on the show, right? Rachel or Mr. Schue singing this to a class of students would be powerful.
17. Thursday – Jess Glynne
Another Jess Glynne track, “Thursday” is a powerful song of love, acceptance, and embracing your true personhood. Everyone could use in their lives, especially the students at McKinley High!
18. Uninvited – Mallrat
“Uninvited,” in addition to being a generally great jam, would be amazing in an episode centered on anxiety.
19. Feel It Still – Portugal. The Man
Here it
20. 1999 – Charli XCX & Troye Sivan
Let’s be honest. This song is iconic, and even though the Glee kids were probably super young in 1999, it’s okay, because so were Charli and
