The power may have been lost at McKinley High on FOX's hit musical dramedy series Glee last night, but there was no shortage of mega-wattage musical magnificence to set the night alight anyway - particularly for the Broadway babies among us, given the major tributes to A CHORUS LINE and ANNIE.

Oh, how the mighty have fallen. Glee has become an eye-roll, a voice-crack, a televised wagging finger - and largely to its own doing.

On this week's GLEE titled 'Lights Out' recurring guest star Sarah Jessica Parker will be joining Lea Michele, Naya Rivera and Chris Colfer in singing 'At The Ballet' from A Chorus Line. Also on the episode, the GLEE cast takes on R.E.M's 'Everybody Hurts'. Get a first listen to both songs below!
