Hell-O GLEEks!
Sorry I haven't posted in a few days.
I read a few days ago that the Gorillaz are the newest on the list of bands denouncing GLEE & refusing their songs. Keep in mind that GLEE hasn't even asked the Gorillaz for any of their music, but that's hearsay, I guess.
With the Gorillaz making this public (even though no one really asked), they have put themselves in the same boat as Kings of Leon. Coldplay was on that list, but realized something & opened up their catalog for GLEE to use.
It's nice that Coldplay came to their senses, and realized that it is OK for others to cover their music. Lady Gaga & Elton John love it when people cover their music...it's a form of flattery! Heck, Sir Paul McCartney is THROWING his catalog at GLEE & begging them to use it!
Plus I figured something out: any band or solo act who doesn't want their music on GLEE is insecure with themselves and don't want to believe that anyone might be able to do their music BETTER than they can. It happens a lot on GLEE - not with every song, but at least with most of them. Britney Spears, Haley Williams & Bruno Mars have praised the GLEE cast for doing their music & for possibly doing it better. These are artists who are secure in who they are, know the power of GLEE, and know that it helps them out as well.
Any act who is going to whine about GLEE setting records & refusing their catalog to the show (especially if you're not even asked in the first place), GROW UP!! You have tried & true fans! Get over the rest of the world who prefers the GLEE version over yours!
Whiny acts need to just keep their bratty mouths shut! If GLEE wants to use your music (uh, one of the BIGGEST shows right now that is setting records in the music industry), suck it up and take the freaking compliment. If you refuse GLEE even if you aren't even asked (take a hint there, Gorillaz), then you are just trying to be an attention suck & no one wants to pay attention to those kids in class.
That's just my thoughts anyway...
