The Dalton Academy Warblers debuted on Glee this season with a bang as their version of Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" had the best first-week sales of any Glee track to date. Also featured on Glee: The Music presents The Warblers are two album exclusives, the much talked about opening performance of Barbra Streisand's "What Kind of Fool" from the 2011 MusiCares Person of the Year gala and a never before heard rendition of Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" (see below for full track listing).
