Well, the game may have been rain-delayed, but it finally got off to a great start, thanks to the cast of Glee, singing strongly in Philadelphia:

Pretty terrific, eh?

    That was awesome!

    • Liz

      They sucked! Well the lead singer did. I wished that other white girl with the brown hair could have sung. Her with that cute football player actor dude. Too bad the phillies lost……..and at home…………so sad.

      • Lola

        Go Yanks!!!

      • sbwm

        “The football player and she…” Please, don’t start the sentence with “her”.
        Thanks for the clip! They were awesome.

      • KatyCharles

        Who are you? “They sucked?” Please explain to me what about that performance sucked in any way, shape, or form.

        Mercedes is wonderful. Chills. Thanks for the clip!!! I’m not a baseball-follower, so I probably would have never even known that this happened at all… Loved it!

        wow…”the other white girl”, “her with the cute football player dude”? they sucked? please dear, clean your ears, they all were fantastic.

        sbwm you are a tool..become a teacher if you want to start grading papers…it’s an entertaining message board not a spelling bee

      • Kate

        That was one of the best renditions of the anthem ever – you need a hearing test!

      • G

        I was at the game. they were great just the way they were. I wish they would’ve done more. The only bad thing was that the sound where I was sitting wasn’t great so I didn’t hear all the harmonizing perfectly.

      • renee

        sucked?? you’re friggin crazy. amazing. and i discovered the guy in the wheelchair isn’t really paraplegic. LOL.

      • Mer

        Hi Liz. Are you still in 8th grade? If not, then your 8th grade teacher should be ashamed of the way you write. Did you watch the performance while listening to a screeching cat ? If not, then consider just getting your hearing tested.
        Love, Mer

        Booo!! You suck! Amber Riley kicked that songs butt!! GO Glee!!

      • Anu Magee

        Well, Liz, we are all entitled to our opinion, so here’s mine: you are out of your mind or you are tone deaf…..The ENTIRE cast of Glee can sing, and they ALL could have done the anthem….that’s how good they are….

    • Melissa

      Fox should totally release this as a single.

  • Kristen

    i LOVE that this occurred less than an hour ago and it is already on the web. thank you, ew!!!

  • Beth

    Love it! Glad to see Mercedes get a little front time.

    • Jane

      I know! It would have totally made sense if they’d given the solo to Leah, but how generous is that to pull back and let your cast members have a chance to shine. Right now this cast is incredibly classy. Let’s hope that they never let fame get to their heads.

      • kahuna

        In an ensemble cast, there are no stars.

      • mscisluv

        kahuna, you must live in a dream world…even ensemble casts can have stars, and clearly Lea Michele is positioned as the star of the show (although I personally would like to see less of her).

  • superso

    that was freakin’ awesome!!! yes, thanks, ew!

  • Kisha

    Seemed as if the crowd was behind them and not just because of the fireworks.It sounded great and they looked like they enjoyed it .I think it puts to rest the question if theyy can sing live or not.

  • TJ

    Wow. That was great! I think they should do that on the show at some point.

    • brody

      Before a football game, perhaps?

  • br

    Is the girl who plays Mercede’s pregnant?!?!?!

    • brody

      Nope. Not to my knowledge, anyway. I think what you’re seeing is just an odd combination of unfortunate wardrobe choice and bad camera angle.

  • TIZ

    I really cant help it.
    I just love that show….!!

  • allie

    AHHHHHHH!!! Amazing!! I love, Love, LOVE Glee!

  • topazbean

    Wowza

  • Brad

    Do you think Rachel was miffed that she didn’t get the solo?

    • Ugly Jenny

      If this was the actual show, then maybe, but since it’s in real life, I would say Lea was just fine not having the solo :) LOL

    • Shana

      I doubt it. when asked if any of the cast members would be putting out albums Lea responded, “I don’t know but I’ll be the first to get a copy of Amber Riley’s Cd”

  • paisleee

    Gave me goosebumps….and I’m not American….love Glee!

    • Gleek

      Me either, had the same reaction. Love Glee, love EW
      :o )

    • Karlover

      As an American, this version brought a tear to my eye. Not every rendition can do that. I’m glad you enjoyed it.

      • Autumn Gray

        Me too–I was all watery, especially with the servicemen holding the flag out there. Proud.

    • Mer

      I’m an American and loved it. I’m even happier that you love it too :-) I love how true talent transcends culture and geography, and goodness if that’s not the best performance of the song that I’ve ever heard!

  • JoAnne

    Loved it, loved it, loved it!

  • Liz

    I mean, really – that was fantastic!!! I saw it live, and just re-watched it. Amazing!

  • Dug

    Thanks for posting this so fast! They sounded great!
