Glee Songs by Decade

(All Seasons)

Firstly, credit for this idea goes to Fran. He had

the glorious idea to do research on which year
the songs covered on Glee hail, to see if there is
a trend. I found it quite interesting, and would
have liked to see it for every season.
Unfortunately Fran left before he could do it for
the fourth or the fifth season, which is why I
tackled the job myself. So let me present you,
"Songs of the decade; Volume/Season Five".

Proceedure

All the data collected here comes from

wikipedia. Exceptions have been marked
with a "*".
I'm taking the year a song was released for
the first time into account. In case Glee had
used a specific cover of a song, I credited
both, the original and the cover. For musical
pieces, the year of the premiere is used.
Only released and featured songs were
done research on, although I'm considering
including unreleased songs, and songs only
featured on albums, also.
Original songs won't be considered for
obvioust reasons.
