LTYH on Glee S06E11
The third last episode of Glee - yes, I watched it today.
It’s a very special episode because.... Well, Roxette is there. Roxette is there in the form of “Listen to your heart”.
This song was covered by the lead star of the show, Lea Michelle, who has an absolute perfect voice. Strong, balanced and professional. It was made a duet with another strong voiced individual, Jonathan Geoff, who is pretty famous for his work on broadway.
I would be lying if I say I don’t like this version, in fact, I actually really really like it. The song has been shortened to 3 minutes and 50 seconds (album version) while in the show it was a little above 2 minutes, and yet it sounds very complete - complete and awesome.
There is a key shift in the Glee version which isn’t in Roxette’s original as well as the DHT version, but believe me, it sounds very creatively cool. It seems very improvised and fresh. I wonder why do I not mind this melody meddling?
Here is the link if you’re interested in listening to it:
https://youtu.be/ERQ7wZgMjBc
Check out the number of views - 7.5 Million - WOW!!! Glee version of “Listen to your heart” has been a hit too, dear ladies and gentlemen.
Besides, if you ever turn on the Glee radio, you’ll hear this song plenty of times in a day. It’s a moment of pride.
So yes, after this episode, no Roxette. But at least, there was Roxette in the show before I was to say goodbye to it.
Love and Peace

Bonus Tracks for week ending Dec. 21, 2019 and Dec. 28, 2019
2019 is over, but our writers still have plenty to say:
First, if you’re not done with Christmas music, Thomas Inskeep published two pieces on Rock & Roll Globe about holiday albums past (from Willie Nelson to Mariah Carey) and present (from Rob Halford to Los Lobos).
Still not done with Christmas music? On his Citysongs blog, Jonathan Bradley talked about the Pogues and Kirsty MacColl’s “Fairytale of New York” and Marah’s “New York Is a Christmas Kind of Town.”
Iain Mew’s history of popular video games now has a new home, Super Chart Island; he most recently discussed the success of Donkey Kong Country 2 in the context of British video-gaming entrepreneurial history.
Follow that up by visiting Bullet Points Monthly, where Tara Hillegeist had a few things to say about the future of video games.
Hillegeist also contributed to the second issue of Tone Glow, Joshua Minsoo Kim’s newsletter on experimental music, in which Kim interviewed Sunik Kim and Seungmin Cha.
For Billboard, Alfred Soto paid tribute to the late Marie Fredriksson of Roxette by writing about the group’s final #1 single, “Joyride.”
Soto also wrote about the work of Ari Lennox, Jamila Woods, Kehlani, and Dawn Richard in 2019 for City Pages.
Jonathan Bogart posted his top 100 songs of 2019 to his blog.
We’ve got more lists! On Medium, Ryo Miyauchi offers up his favorite Japanese songs and favorite idol songs of 2019.
You don’t have enough lists yet! Over at Grooves N Jams, David Sheffieck and Megan Harrington have been counting down their top 50 songs of the year.
Finally, for High Post Hoops‘s review of the decade past, Jackie Powell celebrated the New York Liberty’s being freed from the clutches of James Dolan.

Top Free Things to Do in London
01 of 12
Visit the Tate Modern
© Alan Copson / Getty Images
Tate Modern and Tate Britain house some of the finest pieces of art in the world. Tate Modern focuses on contemporary art while Tate Britain displays British art from the 16th century to the present day.
02 of 12

Spend Time Outdoors at St. James’s Park
© EURASIA PRESS / Getty Images
I regularly hear people tell me the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens (side by side) are enormous and include the ever popular Diana Memorial Playground and the Peter Pan Statue.
04 of 12
Watch the Changing of the Guard
© LatitudeStock – David Williams / Getty Images
No visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11:30 am every day in the summer and every other day in the winter. Get there early and view the spectacle from outside the front gates.
Changing of the Guard Photos
When is the Changing of the Guard?

Walk Along the South Bank for a Free Tour of London’s Landmarks
© Petre Sebastian Condrea / Getty Images
It really is amazing how many London landmarks you can see along this stretch of the River Thames. Take a stroll from Westminster Bridge to Tower Bridge and you'll pass the London Eye, the Royal Festival Hall, the Southbank Centre, the National Theatre, the Oxo Tower, Tate Modern, Shakespeare's Globe, Southwark Cathedral and Borough Market.
06 of 12
Hang Out at Trafalgar Square
© Jorg Greuel / Getty Images
Trafalgar Square is one of Britain's greatest visitor attractions and was designed by John Nash in the 1820s and constructed in the 1830s. This iconic square has many sights to see including Nelson's Column and the National Gallery. It is both a tourist attraction and a focus for political demonstrations. Every December, Norway donates a marvelous Christmas tree, to thank Britain for liberation from the Nazis.
07 of 12
Watch Street Performers of Covent Garden Market
© Gerard Puigmal / Getty Images
The West Piazza of Covent Garden Market has street performers to entertain you every afternoon. Good acts can draw huge crowds and the performers love to get audience members to help them with their act. All performers are licensed and have passed an audition to perform here.
You will find more street performers at the weekend along the South Bank, particularly near the London Eye.
08 of 12
Stroll Through a Famous Street Market
© Alex Segre / Getty Images
London is well-known for its popular street markets. The most popular are Camden Market and Portobello Market, followed closely by Greenwich Market. Find out about these markets and more:

Columbia Flower Market (Sunday mornings only)
Borough Market

09 of 12
See Inside Westminster Abbey
© Julian Love / Getty Images
You can see inside Westminster Abbey for free. The Abbey never charges people who want to worship but they rely on admission fees from visitors to cover running costs. Evensong is the most beautiful of services where the Abbey choir sings. The Choristers of the Choir are educated at Westminster Abbey Choir School and are all extremely talented. Evensong is at 5 pm on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays and at 3 pm on Saturdays and Sundays.
10 of 12
Attend a Free Concert at the National Theatre
© Jeremy Woodhouse/Holly Wilmeth / Getty Images
The Southbank Centre has lots of free music events and there's Free foyer concerts at the National Theatre, also on the South Bank. You can enjoy free Monday lunchtime recitals at the Royal Opera House and regular free lunchtime concerts at St. Martin-in-the-Fields.
See Free Music in London for full details.
11 of 12
Visit the National Portrait Gallery
Christer Fredriksson/Getty Images
Other major London art galleries include the National Portrait Gallery and the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square. I would also recommend The Wallace Collection as it's just off Oxford Street and makes a perfect escape from a busy shopping spree.
And remember, many of London's major art galleries and museums stay open late.
12 of 12
See London from a New Perspective at Greenwich Park’s Observatory
Doug McKinlay/Getty Images
Head to Greenwich Park for awesome views of London's skyline from the observatory.
