yougottaletitout:Ah, freak outLe freak, c’est chicFreak outAh, freak outLe freak, c’est chicFreak outHave you heard about the new dance crazeListen to us, I’m sure you’ll be amazedBig fun-Will decides to stay, and once again tries to recreate the time they won Nationals. Freak Out was part of their setlist back then. Unfortunately, there’s nothing ‘chic’ about being a freak/freaking out at McKinley. (As shown in Theatricality)There’s a difference between freak and loser. Being a loser means you’re not succeeding, but being a freak means you’re different in one way or another. It’s an attempt at showcasing their freakiness, but it doesn’t work in the way that for example Lady GaGa does. Both the costumes in Theatricality and Born This Way were about accepting yourself and your flaws. But they were also very personal. This is supposed to advertise Gleeclub, particularly when you look at the lyrics that get cut off thanks to Mercedes: “Big fun to be had by everyoneIt’s up to you, It surely can be doneYoung and old are doing it, I’m toldJust one try, and you too will be soldIt’s called Le Freak! They’re doing it night and dayAllow us, we’ll show you the way ”Will tries to use ‘freak’ as a selling point as to why others should join. And of course Gleeclub being safe for everyone is important, but nobody wants to be told they’re freaks by the people inviting them in. And obvious example is how Kurt’s argument to why they shouldn’t do this song is because it’s really gay. There’s no reason to let him do anything really gay unless he chooses to, because he’s not ready for that kind of announcement yet. None of the kids like it. None of the kids want to promote themselves with this.During the dance, Artie can’t turn around as quickly as the others, and he falls completely out of the choreography. When Rachel nearly kicks Mercedes in the face, he’s trying to get back into the line. Which is an instant fight for the spotlight in a song without a solo, by the way. -- source link
