GLEE gave fans a first listen to five songs from Season 4's first two episodes on its Facebook page today, Sept. 5. The one-time-only event was hosted by Kevin McHale and Darren Criss.

The five songs from the Listening Party included "Americano/I Wanna Dance", "It's Time", "Boys/Boyfriend", "Gimme More", and "Call Me Maybe"—songs by Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears and Carly Rae Jepsen, among others.

The "Americano/I Wanna Dance" mashup features Kate Hudson, while Criss takes lead vocals on "It's Time" from the band Imagine Dragons. McHale and Criss duet on "Boys/Boyfriend," and Chord Overstreet and Heather Morris lead "Gimme More." Finally, "Call Me Maybe" is set to feature GLEE Project season one victor Alex Newell.

The fourth season of GLEE promises a host of surprises as well as guest appearances by Kate Hudson and Sarah Jessica Parker. The show will also welcome new cast members Dean Guyer, Jacob Artist, Melissa Benoist and Becca Tobin, and will see the debut appearance of GLEE PROJECT season 2 winner Blake Jenner.

GLEE is a musical comedy about a group of ambitious and talented kids who escape the harsh realities of high school by joining a glee club where they find strength, acceptance and ultimately their voice. This year, the senior class is riding high from their Nationals win and enjoying a bit of popularity, while the graduating class leaves the comforts of McKinley for the cruel streets of New York as they open a new chapter and continue chasing their dreams.

GLEE is produced by Ryan Murphy Television in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan are co-creators of the series. Murphy, Falchuk, Brennan and Dante di Loreto serve as executive producers.

The season's premiere episode, titled "The New Rachel", will air on a new night and time Thursday, September 13 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
