Glee Cover Janet (and Michael) again - makes me wanna scream (in pain)

After their rendition of the iconic JANET classic control (see video below if you missed it), hit tv show Glee have decided to tackle one of JANET's best song in terms of vocals, and Michaels too.


Scream was a huge hit for the 2 on their first and only duet and it made a statement that they were not going to take the media bashing the pair, Michael more so, but Scream projected JANET as the little sister who has her brothers back, something she continued to have till the day he tragically passed.


Glee's version of the song is interesting to say the least. While praise must be given to even take on the song, you come to realize just how great JANET and Michael sang the song when you hear a cover of it. Besides the more rock style mix up of the song, it lacked the anger and frustration that Michael and JANET projected in Scream, it almost makes you want to just punch the air when listening to it. They were never going to compete with the original, and while we give Glee props for covering the King and the Queen, it wasn't the best of covers. But take a look for yourself, here's the audio of the song:
