'Glee': Full Michael Jackson Episode Song List Revealed!
by Andy NeuenschwanderThey've done Gaga, they've done "Rocky Horror," and now the cast of "Glee" will be taking on the King of Pop, Michael Jackson.
As we reported earlier, "Glee" has shot a Michael Jackson tribute episode and set it to air on January 24th... just a few weeks away! The idea seemed to stem from the use of a few MJ songs in the Sectionals episode of the show toward the end of 2011, when the cast performed "Man in the Mirror" and other hits.
The Jackson episode will be a big one, with a full 10 songs on the set list. Here's the full list of songs for the episode, via TV Guide:
1. "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'" - New Directions lead by Blaine
2. "Rock with You" - Warblers lead by Sebastian
3. "Bad" - Artie, Santana, Blaine, Sebastian
4. "Scream" - Artie and Mike
5. "Never Can Say Goodbye" - Quinn
6. "Human Nature/Nature Boy" - Mercedes and Sam
7. "Smooth Criminal" - Santana and Sebastian
8. "Ben" - Finn, Rachel and Kurt
9. "I Just Can't Stop Loving You" - Finn and Rachel
10. "Black or White" - New Directions
It's an interesting list, and one that pretty clearly has to make some more obscure choices as some of the big hits ("Thriller," "Man in the Mirror") have already been performed on the show.
Also interesting is the fact that Sebastian has three different numbers in the episode. Chances are pretty good that we're going to see some Blaine/Kurt drama with him hanging around that much.
Catch the MJ tribute episide on January 24th on Fox. "Glee" returns on January 17th with the new episode "Yes/No."
