And while the upcoming Lady Gaga episode will be great (even though it's only going to feature a couple of songs), it seems like Glee has a chance to do this with plenty of other icons. We've already suggested a Janet Jackson episode (Ryan Murphy, make it happen!), and now we'd like to suggest another one. How about Prince? Come on, everyone loves the Purple One! Here's our wishlist of Prince songs and performances. "1999" This is usually the type of rock-heavy song that Glee gives to Finn, but, honestly, he seems better suited to power ballads ("I Can't Fight This Feeling"). So how about letting bad boy Puck take a crack at "1999"? Get him a purple jumpsuit and go nuts! Dunno. I didn't like his appearance on American Idol... I would be wary of that in the future...  | |

The TV Show formerly known as 'Glee' would become 'Glum'.  |

So how about letting bad boy Puck take a crack at "1999"? Get him a purple jumpsuit and go nuts! "Little Red Corvette" With Mr. Schuester now single and turning into a total player, a song like "Little Red Corvette" (about a one-night stand) feels perfect for him! Maybe bring back Kristin Chenowith as the "Little Red Corvette" of the title and let them duet, à la "Alone." "When Doves Cry" One of the best parts of the all-Madonna episode? Kurt and Mercedes! If they can make a duet of "4 Minutes" sound ridiculously awesome, imagine what they can do with "When Doves Cry." "Purple Rain" Remember what we said about Finn and power ballads? Get that man an umbrella! "Let's Go Crazy" A song that just screams, "Get the entire cast together for a Converse-wearing auditorium performance, complete with the school band!" We've got our episode closer. Ok you can all save the "it will never happen" comments. i know. however, it might just be a brilliant idea to make prince more mainstream. look what it did to madonna's music sales on itunes. discuss. (plus it could help with his supposed ~financial issues~) [Edited 4/27/10 8:57am] | |

As far as I know they could do a Prince episode whenever they want without the Artist's approval.
Anyone can cover a song, why would a TV show be any different? | |

Hell no. I'd hate it.  "Raow Raow. Meow Moaw."
"Shut up Sterling!" "U no eye <3 U."  | |
