Things are about to get romantic on 'Glee.'TV Guide released the track list for the show's upcoming Valentine's Day episode, and the McKinley High gang will sing four very unconventional love songs.
Recently dumped Rachel will put her spin on Katy Perry's 'Firework,' while we're assuming Artie will seranade Brittany when he sings Michael Jackson's 'P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing).' Tina will go traditional with 'My Funny Valentine,' while we think Puck's rendition of Queen's 'Fat Bottomed Girls' will have something to do with his rumored new love, Ashley.
The Dalton Academy boys will get in on the action too when Blaine sings Robin Thicke's 'When I Get You Alone' and the Warblers cover Paul McCartney's 'Silly Love Songs.' Noticably absent from the track list: Quinn and Sam. Trouble in paradise?
