You definitely should listen to "cough syrup" or "hopelessly devoted to you" DARREN IS AMAZIIIING in those performances!!!

[@leahlopez6957]

Agreed! I was also going to suggest these two songs :)

[@kshartel]

Definitely agree with Cough Syrup, but definitely be mindful of the trigger warning for that scene.

[@ElizabethNicoleSchwartz]

Cough Syrup is a lot of people's favorite Darren performance in Glee.

[@heatherglover7789]

He has more solo's than most of the origional cast

[@seeleyboothfan2]

Agreed and was going to make the same comment, but then if you watch the clip it was part of, the Karofsky content is quite triggering and wouldn't be the best to have for Hannah and her fans

[@ElizabethNicoleSchwartz]

@@seeleyboothfan2 yeah that is true. It's definitely wise that if she does choose to cover it with using the clip that she puts a trigger warning.

[@seeleyboothfan2]

@@ElizabethNicoleSchwartz Even with a trigger warning, you cannot really focus on Darren's singing and making critiques when the majority of the scene is what is happening to Karofsky - this is really one of the darkest moments of the whole series (excluding Shooting Star and Bash)

[@ElizabethNicoleSchwartz]

@@seeleyboothfan2 very good point actually. I think Hannah would just have to react to the audio without showing an actual clip from the show if she reacts to it.

[@tomidrac9719]

Cough syrup or against all odds are definitely his best songs/performances on the show!!!

[@anoncat53]

yesss definitely cough syrup

[@Aleixones]

Cough Syrup is the best performance

[@karenstewart4791]

Yessss I love Cough Syrup!!

[@VickyPTapiaF]

his live performance of “somewhere only we know” where he’s in a church is just…pure perfection

[@simone6829]

[@oliviahutchings2099]

I'd say Darren's best songs on glee are Against All Odds, Hopelessly Devoted to You, Cough Syrup, and Come What May which he sings with Kurt!

[@lyv4966]

I have to say I also love the later version of Teenage Dream, where he sings with SO MUCH emotion and as far as I know, they left his original singing instead of a retake in the studio, like they usually would have done. Just because it applies so well and he is playing it SO WELL. I love it so much.

[@pastelwraith1946]

His acoustic version of "Teenage Dream" or "All of me" I think they both show his voice very well!

[@melissabaldwin9462]

Yes! That was the first song of his that I thought of!

[@jaredadkinson]

Omg, seeing someone watch Glee out of context is AMAZING. This show was crazy, even watching the whole show. But with no context at all it’s so fucken weirrdddd

[@jlcollins14]

The hip shots are probably hommages to Sir Tom Jones since he is known for his swinging 60's dance hips with this song. I also love his performance of Raise your Glass and Somebody that I used to know.

[@Becizzle]

There we go. This is what I came to say

[@quinnfabray4946]

LISTEN TO COUGH SYRUP, AGAINST ALL ODDS OR HOPELESSLY DEVOTED BECAUSE HES LITERALLY PERFECTION

[@sarahhandberg5185]

I came here to write these three songs because yES

[@wynonahmcconnell7635]

100% agree, also teenage dream acoustic version or his duet with Kurt "perfect" or "come what may"

[@purpleprincess4881]

“Not gonna teach your boyfriend how to dance with you” is one of my favourite Darren songs and fun fact if the glee cover with the longest name

[@crisy862]

"Cough Syrup" and "Something’s Coming" are TOPs!! He was amazing in these performances.

[@tayana_urie7358]

every song he sings in glee is perfect

[@randomgirlvideos5202]

You should really react to the GLEE episode “duets”, you’ll be able to meet all of the main characters and that episode showcases a lot more of the singers.

[@soxybaby13]

I second this !

[@bright5893]

Bestie we're going to need your reaction to Abigail and Emily's Bridgerton Musical set at Elsie Fest! Darren sang "Burn for You" with them as well!!

[@cael_aj]

Ugh, I can only dream of attending Elsie Fest one day while Darren is still doing them! Hopefully I can move to New York or at least the east coast at some point and be able to attend more stuff like that.

[@FM-jb5sn]

YESS

[@Ginagm71]

Yes, Blaine transferred to Kurt's school and obvs Kurt wants him in "New Directions" AKA the Glee Club but Blaine already had that planned out with this little "audition"

[@nyx_cypher]

If your gonna react to more Darren Chris from Glee I recommend “Hopelessly Devoted to you”, “Baby It’s Cold Outside”, or “Raise Your Glass”

[@jacksoncalamari630]

I’d say his best songs are Teenage Dream (acoustic), Against All Odds, and *definitely* Cough Syrup.

[@jasmine511]

yesss, especially since acoustic Teenage Dream and Against All Odds were both live

[@Caprizonica]

Lol, not at all but I can't wait for her to destroy the first two and burst your bubble.

[@turtle2106]

Darren's best performance is 1000% cough syrup, i dont think theres any questions there

[@lewismarriott5142]

You should react to him singing live in like starkid or something rather than the glee pre recorded stuff. He's incredible!

[@jennifermacpherson9400]

Omg she needs to react to A Very Potter Musical!!!! I want to see her react to the opening number!!!!

[@elizabethmilliken1345]

Or Hedwig, he was phenomenal live for Hedwig!

[@arqjavier]

I believe “Hopelessly devoted to you” from Olivia Newton Jhon is one of the cherries of the pie! Unbelievable!!!

[@kennydolinger1705]

You should do the “dream on” version when Neil Patrick Harris guest stared, he sings it as a duet with Matthew Morrison. Season 1 episode 19. Context, they are auditioning for a community theatre production of les mis.

That one is one of my favorites!!!

Yes, definitely!

[@blip-2024]

I can't even tell you how many times I have watched that performance. It was AMAZING!

[@eviesymm4233]

You should definitely listen too “cough syrup” where Darren sings it on the show, his singing is amazing in that and very emotive. It’s my favourite performance of his ❤️❤️❤️

[@IndieSparrow]

His “Something’s Coming” and “Teenage Dream”(2nd version) are definitely his best.

[@KarmaisKatii]

Something’s Coming is so underrated!!!! It’s one of my all time favorites.

[@jilliannixon305]

3:16 that is the Darren Criss smile. When watching him it’s impossible to not smile his performance just make your face light up. Talented.

[@adriannfelipe56]

Fighter, Cough Syrup, Hopelessly Devoted to You and Teenage Dream (accoustic) are some of the best Darren songs on Glee 🥰

[@leilanicar5024]

I’d definitely recommend darren’s performance of cough syrup to watch at some point !! also the two different versions of teenage dream - I think you’d have a blast with those

[@lilsmateir3143]

But the prerecorded version of season 4 because he’s crying in the live one and I can’t handle that 😭😂

[@MrTodaj2015]

If you ever want to do another Darren song, definitely do “hey Jude”. It’s a slow start but then Darren gives rasp, high notes, and VERY gelled hair!!

[@blip-2024]

I love how Hannah tires to make Glee make sense...abrupt transitions, burning pianos, cheer leaders shaking what their mommas gave them is all part of the charm.

[@katewhitford9017]

I’ve been waiting for this video! Glad she’s back.

[@jasminelambert4859]

darren's best performance as blaine is definitely cough syrup! also, would you react to more glee episodes in the future for your patreon? i'd love to see you finally understand the storylines!

I love the voice of darren

[@anakristina5345]

his perfomance of "don't you want me" with lea, i can't tell you

[@coolrunnings88]

My Blaine favorites are “All Of Me” and “Against All Odds”. Also “Last Friday Night” but that’s more of a group number. Side note - Please PLEASE react to Ben Platt’s performance of “You Will Be Found” on America’s Got Talent. It is amazing!

[@slodent]

ooh yes! people don't seem to mention All of Me very much with Darrens Glee covers but I love this one too

yay another glee reaction!!! we need more of those🥰 you should definitely react to “The Break Up” (S4Ep4) it has most of my favorite songs in it!

[@whitney32592]

I have a physical reaction to the words "The Break Up". I have never cried and been so angry at a tv show before. It did have great music though. Darren's version of Teenage Dream is stunning but also makes me a little sick. :D

Would love if you react to Rumour Has It from Glee! Naya Rivera and Amber Riley have gorgeous voices!

[@amypond7631]

I love Darren so much and this is one of my favorite covers from him !! I call Darren "the one good thing Glee ever did" (also you should check out Starkid if you haven't already)

Hannah, I think you're personality is absolutely wonderful. I share you're vibes with all music. The tears with amazing voices, the happiness with everything music. You're just the absolute BEST. Don't you EVER change. So much love ❤️

[@molliecole]

I love Kevin McHale’s cover of Dancing with Myself, also from Glee! It’s not one of the main songs but I just really love the way he sang it!

[@c0llapsingst4rs]

i think his top three would be “hey jude” “hopelessly devoted to you” and also “cough syrup”

[@leahlyons4727]

Two Darren covers you should definitely react to are Hopelessly Devoted to You and Cough Syrup, both from Glee, he sounds so good in both

Darren is LITERALLY my celebrity crush but not even in a romantic way! But he just he makes so giggly and happy I literally can’t😭😭😭😩😩

Darren is an amazing artist !

[@samimowery1569]

Darren Criss singing "Somewhere Only We Know" in season 2 episode 18 is beautiful

[@katburgess5926]

By this point in the show, Glee realized people were really there for drama or the music so the weird transitions to songs became more noticeable.

[@holdenporter1050]

You’ve gotta watch his “Teenage Dream” (acoustic) Performance. It’s heart breaking.

[@maggieharvie]

You should definitely react to “somewhere only we know”, “cough syrup” and teenage dream”

[@mar2873]

Darren’s best performance is “Cough Syrup”. “hopelessly devoted to you” is a close second though. And “It’s not right but it’s okay” is also up there.

[@Glee10Anos]

Pleeease react to S04E04 "The Breakup" episode! Its one of the best in performances and storyline! There's singing from all of them, includding an actual LIVE PERFORMANCE of Darren Criss, a DUET with him and Cory Monteith, a stunning cover of Taylor Swift's "Mine" by Naya Rivera, and a really emotional performance of Coldplay's "The Scientist" at the end. This episode is just another level.

[@FrostyFrickles]

Do you want to see her cry? Because that is exactly what will happen.

[@urma2676]

Cough syrup and somebody I used to know are my favorite songs from Darren in glee

[@Ana-rx3gk]

I love Teenage dream which he sung when he was still the lead singer in the Warblers.

[@Caatpuccino]

I was so happy to see that you reacted to one of Darren's performances on Glee ! He has so many great songs, but Cough syrup is a must, as well as Against all odds, and the acoustic version of teenage dream. He's also amazing in Hey jude ! So hard to pick one song !

[@kaitlyn.b3101]

Couch syrup is amazing!!!! So is “it’s not right but it’s ok.” And I think “teenage dream” is also a amazing performance.

[@hadardavid2787]

Against all odds is absolutely amazing and it’s live!!

[@wickamo]

So in this episode he has just changed schools and is now attending Kurts and the rest of "GLEE's" school, to be closer to Kurt. When Kurt says, "We'll have to find a way to ease you into the NEW DIRECTIONS", which is the glee club group at this school, he says that he already has that figured out and then it immediately switches to the scene where he pretty much just creates his own audition for the rest of the NEW DIRECTION kids that are all eating lunch on the steps of the student center. That's the reason for the quick transition. He also gets the help of the cheerleaders which Santana is leader of, which is why she joins in. As far as the flaming piano...don't worry about it. It's just another part of the episode that is unrelated. The best performance he gave in my opinion which you would love is "TEENAGE DREAM" in the 6th episode of season 2.

[@janetduffy3913]

Hannah I think you would love to binge watch Glee just to get perspective on these characters. It always was my happy place.

[@chamari1998]

I feel like Darren’s performance of “Don’t Stop Me Now” is quite excellent.

[@spoonlegs]

i noticed he didn't have to change the key to hit the notes Freddie did in the original, which was a pretty impressive feat imo. it's not bohemian rhapsody but it's still a difficult song

[@anabeatriz-zf9vk]

you should react to listen to your heart by glee it's a masterpiece! literally the best song of the whole show

[@camiferreira92]

some of the best darren's solos in glee are fighter, hopelessly devoted to you, cough syrup, against all odds and not while i'm around! ♥

[@kathrynsteele4543]

I love the acoustic version of "Teenage Dream" that he sang to Kurt in the club in New York.

[@Ab.e.normal]

I really need more Glee reactions. It's so fun to see your confusion and I love it so much because we lived through it and it was ROUGH.

[@Ab.e.normal]

Also Hannah, the "yellow rock" you picked up, I think, is Citrine. Which makes it super funny that you've not filmed in weeks because... Citrine is used to increase creativity, promotes happiness and joy, protects you from negative energies, and increases your self-esteem/confidence. Or it's a heat-treated amethyst, but the provide the same basic properties. Love that you're learning new things during this difficult time in your life

[@lucyann7616]

Darrens best performances to me are don’t stop me now, cough syrup, and against all odds witch he did live

[@elizabethmarie8069]

You should react to live performances. Glee did 2 tours so there’s so many to choose from, plus a lot of them are performers outside of the show. Darren’s voice seriously improved while doing hedwig on Broadway. I would absolutely love you to react to Darren singing hopelessly devoted to you live either at elsiefest or on your. Please and thank you. 🥰 As for Darren’s best performances in the show I would say somewhere only we know, cough syrup, and hey Jude are the top performances Vocally

[@alysonwaikel9013]

Cough Syrup is one of my favorite glee songs that he did, just an absolute gem

[@faizahnc1565]

Darren is wonderful.. he has an incredible energy.

[@FrostyFrickles]

You should watch the videos where he sings live on set. Suddenly Seymour, Against All Odds, Teenage Dream (4x04) There’s so many good songs!

[@claraarruda2533]

My favorite performance of him is "Somewhere Only We Know" :)

[@HolidaysLane]

Teenage Dream [S2E6] was his best performance, followed second by Something's Coming [S3E2] then Beauty School Dropout [S4E6] His best duet was with Matt Bomer singing a mashup of Rio/Hungry Like The Wolf [Big Brother S3E15]

[@rainingwoman]

Please keep doing glee videos, Im in lovf

[@mistlycrook1665]

I think a lot of people really enjoyed Darren singing Cough Syrup but I personally think his best song in Glee is Beauty School Dropout. :)

[@denaspohn5207]

Asking questions means we get to give answers. TRANSFER STUDENT. Blaine and Kurt were in The Warblers until Kurt returned to McKinley High. (I suppose the focus on Naya was because she was such a good dancer.) Not Tom Jones, but really good. Charle Lubbock sang this with altered lyrics in Glee Project 2. Best performance but he was eliminated. I would love to see reactions to the Glee Project contestants. Also, some of the Got Talent contestants like Golden Buzzer winner Sarah Ikumu.

[@adamhale5652]

Santana is the Head Cheerleader at this point in the show so presumably she helped organize and choreograph the number with Baline off-screen, as a surprise for Kurt

[@amycmw]

You need to watch him do Teenage Dream and Somebody that I Used to Know

[@zanethecobra]

A good Darren song in glee would be his cover of “hopelessly devoted to you” there’s not a lot going on in the music video besides he’s sad about Kurt but the singing is pretty strong from what I remember

[@BlaiddDrwg2009]

6:40 nothing to do with singing, but I think that little movement they both did was a reference to Naya's "famous" shuffle dance move she used to do. It was so adorable. You can see it in a couple of songs, including "Marry You" :)

[@meg-k214]

All or Nothing is a hidden gem! Darren and Melissa 🤌

[@nailyk_fk6885]

For me, "Cough Syrup" "All of Me" but they are depressed so i think "Darkside" "Piano Man" or "Don't stop me now"

[@TarotwithRuby]

when you said this was 11 years ago my soul left my body. it didn't even hit when you said 2010. it still feels like yesterday.

[@BostonAmy]

I agree with a lot of you. "Cough Syrup" is definitely one of his best performances. Everything about his performance and the Karofsky, gives me chills

[@nanalove3819]

Just realizing this episode was made 11 years ago. It felt like it was yesterday. I feel old now.

[@aimes2011]

I loved his performance of Somebody That I Used to Know.

[@goodyougetastar]

Vocally, Blaine’s best performance is 100% Something’s Coming from WSS

[@jb5rm]

you should definitely react to “take a look at me now” and “teenage dream” S4 he did them live on the show

[@oliviamiller6322]

Girl Hannah….Darren just released an awesome EP and he’s coming out with a Christmas album soon with one Christmas song already out…10 years later his voice just gets betters

One of my favorites in the show and of his performances, is when he sings Teenage Dream a second time, in the fourth season I think

[@kraddaku1567]

Cough syrup. Teenage dream acoustic version. Somebody that I used to know. One of my favs from Darren criss

[@rafa-kt5br]
