Glee's Imagine: An Inspirational Song Sung in an Amazing Way

The television show “Glee” is very popular, and the music it plays each week makes its viewers laugh, cry, and feel good all over. Never has this been more true than in the episode of the show in which the characters sang the song “Imagine” by John Lennon.

The song “Imagine”, with its message of peace, is inspirational all on its own. But in this episode of “Glee”, it was made even more inspiring. That is because of the amazing acceptance and unity the characters showed as they sang the song with a very special group of people, a group you might not expect to hear singing a song!
