Born This Way | Glee [HD FULL STUDIO]

Born This Way by Lady Gaga is featured in Born This Way, the eighteenth episode of Season Two. It is sung by the New Directions excluding Santana, and features solos from Kurt, Mercedes and Tina.
The episode that the song is featured in, is focused on the New Directions accepting their personal flaws. For the performance, the members of the New Directions are seen wearing shirts with text printed on them that state something about them which they have previously struggled with. Near the end of the song, Will and Emma join in wearing their own shirts, "Butt Chin" and "OCD."
Santana did not participate in this performance, although she watches with David, while thinking about what Brittany said to her in the hallways.

It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M (M-M-M-M)

So, hold your head up, girl

And you'll go far
Listen to me when I say
Mercedes with New Directions:
I'm beautiful in my way

[@wjrshepherd10]

I have Autism, ADHD, as well as OCD, and I still haven’t figured out exactly where I lie on the gay/straight/bi/pan scale. I have had 2 very brief straight relationships (the 2nd one ended almost 5 years ago). Between then and now, I have opened up the possibility of having a same-sex relationship, but right now nothing is set in stone. I get stressed out about it here and there, but every time I listen to this, it always helps me feel better and reminds me that no matter what happens, things are going to be ok. “God makes no mistakes” is probably one of my favourite lyrics in any song. Everyone, love and appreciate yourselves no matter what, as we were all born a certain way!
