It was a funny show. I still remember when that finale first aired - that little alien hymn of theirs (and how they couldn't remember all the words) is still fresh in my mind to this day.

This is honestly my favorite song animated by Sally Cruikshank.

...even though I will admit the face on Seymour's bed creeped me out as a kid. :eek:

(Random note, but my dad absolutely hates Paul Jacob's vocals in this song. :stick_out_tongue: )

Nothin' like some good old Beach Boys to honor the summer.

Definitely a guilty pleasure of mine; I shouldn't consider it that since the Beach Boys are legendary, but John Stamos on the steel drums and stuff. :big_grin:

This has got to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
I was only ever aware of the drums version; it's an interesting read if you check out the Wikipedia article that apparently the producer snuck back in and added the drums and stuff after it became a hit, without S&G knowing.

I hate that song. GLEE killed it for me.
Not my favorite either, but still okay in my book. The 1980's songs are the weakest spots in the playlist when placed alongside tunes like "Layla," "The Joker," and "Stairway to Heaven" (although STH is quite overplayed imo).
