Re: Chris Colfer Appreciation Thread!--part 9

Love that extended version of One of Us. I like when we have unusual duet combinations such as Chris and Dianna, speaking of them, even though I could differentiate their voices, they still sounded similar to me, like they were siblings.

I've said for ages that one of the least appreciated aspects of Chris's voice is how well he compliments so many other singers. He can sing in the same key as any of the girls, but his tone is decidedly masculine and when he sings with the guys he brings a bright accent. It's a real shame that he's been so limited with his duet partners. While I enjoy my Hummelberry and Kurtcedes duets (and can tolerate Klaine duets when they're evenly balanced), I would have given anything for a proper Furt duet. And to hear Kurt duet with Artie (since they sounded great together on YGSTB) and Santana. And what I would have given to hear Kurt sing with Will at some point.

^I just made a tumblr post with possible Kurt/Will duets. If you click the links you can wath the suggested songs on youtube.   


Anonymous asked:
"What song/songs would you like Chris and Matt to sing together? My dream scenario would be that Will apologizes for neglecting Kurt, and then they sing together( because that's what characters do on " Glee" LOL), but I'm not sure what Broadway songs would fit."

In the scenario you describe a good song would be Starlight Express/I am The Starlight.
But that’s more of a modern jukebox-like musical, while I would prefer an old classic for Chris and Matt, like from one of the many Hollywood ‘bro’ musicals/songs. It doesn’t really have to be in any context either, a simple fun song would be nice, especially if it would get them dancing together, like Moses Supposes from ‘Singing in the Rain’, Well, Did You Evah (also known as ‘What a Swell Party This Is’) from ‘High Society’, or Brush Up Your Shakespeare from ‘Kiss Me Kate’. 
From the stage musicals there’s also so much to choose from, like You’re Nothing Without Me from ‘City of Angels’ (wouldn’t those lyrics be fun for them, lol?), What You Own from ‘Rent’, Dirty Rotten Number from ‘Dirty Rotten Scoundrels’, Me And My Shadow from ‘Big Deal’, or Agony+Reprise from ‘Into The Woods’.
And for a while now I’ve had this song from ‘Aspects of Love’ in my head for them that with a little tweaking of the words could function as a song in which Mr. Shue hands over ND to Kurt: She’d Be Far Better Off With You.
(Some of these songs would need to be set in a slightly higher key.)

I've just been watching a series called perception which I enjoyed and then because I didn't want to do school work I started to look at recaps of glee, that of course got me thinking of perceptions because honestly I started to wonder if the recappers and I were watching the same programme! There seems to be a lot of bias with theses recappers to the extent that in some instances I started to wonder if it was a pr job? I use to follow a fan who went by the name of recappers delight and she was brilliant she was no afraid to call out the rubbish but she also gave credit we the credit wan due, she stopped about eighteen months ago after getting a lot of flac from idiots she would have had a field day if she had ignored the nay Sayers I do miss those recaps, another good recappers was tv journals but that seems to have stopped to, such a shame when Real writing talent is wasted and we end up with mediocre o well that's my rant over I need to go and do that school prep    

[fantastica]

recappers are done w/ people who either love the show or are paid to do it for PR or both. imagine if you hate a show - would you bother to watch it let alone describing the whole thing from beginning to the end including many of the details, and even commenting on them? it would a torture. many publications stopped recapping glee either because the recapper fell out of love w/ it or there's not enough audience to warrant further writing.

Two recappers who gave up on Glee were the Vanity Fair writer and the Rolling Stones guy who once did hilarious musical ditties on the show.

[fantastica]

^ that music guy was hilarious but he stopped recapping for glee half way through S3.

I remember that music guy, I think his name was Jim. If is the same guy, I really enjoyed his vids, he had the ability to turn anything that made people felt upset into a joke.

His enthusiasm and anglophile bias  is quite adorable...

The boy has exceptional taste. And it's always adorable when someone as noteworthy as Chris gets to meet one of his idols.

I have a feeling that Hillary knew exactly who she was - she looks just as delighted.

Who wouldn't look delighted when meeting Chris?  

And even if Hillary didn't really know who Chris is..... the reporters and photographers present sure did.   


Chris is meeting her at 0.53. (and there's a glimpse of Will to)

[fantastica]

^ taste is a very individual thing you know.    me and my mom like different kinds of food. can't convince her to eat chicken.

[tanita_mors]

i know. but i just HATE politicians. especially serbian and american.

LIARS and MANIPULATORS, all of them.

[fantastica]

^ true, but name anyone at top leadership level of anything who is not manipulative (that's how they get things done and prevents their own asses from being kicked) and is 100% honest. only Jesus. and look where he ended up - on a cross.

[Ranwing]

Trust me, I was a political science major in college. I'll be the first to say that a politician of any party shouldn't be trusted. But I do like her and hope that she will run.

[brisallie]

Personally I cant say so much about Hillary as I haven't followed her career, but probably there's more than her only politician side. She must have something that Chris and other people like about her.

But I agree that most of politicians are manipulative and not trustful.
