We’re not exactly Lea Michele fans around these parts (or Glee fans, for that matter), but even I can admit that I really like her cover of Katy Perry’s “Firework” from tonight’s episode. In fact, I’m kind of interested in watching the show now to see if I’ve had a change of heart.
I doubt that this version of “Firework” will ever be as popular as the show’s cover of Katy’s “Teenage Dream” earlier this season, but as long as they’re taking Katy Perry songs and making them more listenable, I’m not going to complain.
Let me know what you think of the cover by voting in the poll and chiming in in the comments.

I’m watching now and I hope that doctor with the limp can figure out what’s wrong with the kid with the nail in his forehead.
I like Lea’s voice a little better than Katy’s, but otherwise there’s not much difference between this version and the original. I think what was so brilliant about Glee’s version of Teenage Dream was that it *was* so different (a group of men singing instead of Katy Perry).
Um, it sounded EXACTLY the same as Katy Perry….so who the hell cares. I get it, she can imitate people great. GOOD JOB GLEE!
