It seems like it was only just yesterday when the New Directions alums banded together to bring glee to New York City. In Glee‘s Season 5 finale, “The Untitled Rachel Berry Project”, we find the rising stars going their separate ways once again as their dreams take them to places they never imagined.

So here’s what you missed this month on Glee… Since saying so long and farewell to the New Directions Glee Club, the Lima guys (Blaine, Sam, and Artie) plus Mercedes have joined their friends Rachel, Kurt, and Santana in the city that never sleeps – New York City! The permanent switch in scenery (for the remainder of Season 5, anyway) was long overdue, and the change has lead to more mature storylines (such as exploring the struggles between balancing your career aspirations with your personal relationships, with much less backstabbing and cheating as catalysts for conflict thankyouverymuch) and stronger musical numbers (including more Broadway-esque songs, naturally) for this talented bunch. And of course, I can never get enough of the gratuitous glory shots of my favourite city on planet Earth. Already, the Gleeks’ adventures in the Big Apple have lead to some major memorable moments…
Glee said goodbye to McKinley High with a special two-part celebration of their 100th episode milestone. Original cast members returned for a bittersweet reunion to relive their fond memories of the New Directions show choir by revisiting and remixing their most popular performances (as voted upon by fans of the show).
On March 28th, Phillip Phillips wrapped up his Canadian tour in Vancouver. The American Idol winner turned multi-platinum-selling recording artist embarked on a three week trip across the country to perform hit songs from his debut album, The World from the Side of the Moon, and to promote his new single, “Raging Fire” from his forthcoming sophomore record, Behind the Light.
“Raging Fire” is the lead single from American Idol winner Phillip Phillips‘ forthcoming sophomore album, Behind the Light, due out this year.
Penned by Phillips with the writers responsible for “Gone, Gone, Gone“, the track sounds like a cross between the aforementioned song and his first single, “Home” and has all of the ingredients that made those songs huge successes.
With his signature blend of a moving beat, jammin’ instrumentation, a catchy chorus (with lyrics like, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon, won’t you turn my soul into a raging fire?), and a sweeping vibe, “Raging Fire” sounds as if it will be a surefire hit on the airwaves!
The past year has been a whirlwind for the singer/songwriter, with “Home” going five times platinum, and his debut album The World From The Side Of The Moon and “Gone, Gone, Gone” both reaching platinum status, along with touring with his music heroes, John Mayer and Bruce Springsteen.
Starting this Saturday, Phillip will embark on his first Canadian headlining tour throughout March – the full schedule is listed on phillipphillips.com.
Phillip Phillips’ “Raging Fire” is available on iTunes.
