    The part that got to me was when she was on the train and Finn was waving to her, then the train starts to leave the station and he runs along beside it. The expression on his face... You can tell that it wasn't only Finn loving Rachel, it was Cory loving Lea. Amazing episode, amazing performance.

      I hate them. Cause it brings this notion that bad things will build up character and make you stronger. And while yes that does happen, they also build up trauma and shitty behavioral patterns. I'm done with romanticizing disgrace and misfortune.

  • @demeko96
    @demeko96 Před 8 lety +1282

    I cried so much in this episode... when they are in the car and she thinks he's driving her to the wedding but he's driving to the train station... and the car stops and he tells her what he's doing and she thinks he doesn't want to marry her anymore but then he tells her he's setting her free because this is how he loves her... OMG it was wonderfully terrible ♥

    When I first listened to this song, I was only 13. Today, I am 17 and now I fully understand why Finn made the choice that he made. He wanted Rachel to have a better future. Like the song says "gotta have roots before branches" you can't skip a big step in your life to follow another.

    Lea's voice and technique is out of this world. No wonder she idolized Barbra Streisand in the series, due to both of their similarities.

    When I watched this episode for the first time when it aired, it made me cry. Now it makes me upset. Upset because now I am older I understand it more. Upset because I miss the old Glee. Upset to hear and see the original members growing up and getting on with their own lives...engagements, babies, divorces and deaths.

    • @May04bwu

    I love this song but I still cry watching it in the episode. Cory/finn was my favorite character on glee and all allways will be. I know he is resting in peace. But his spirit lives in everyone who new him and all us gleeks. So at least his spirit lives on forever. RIP CORY MONTEITH.

    I still cry watching this episode. And more so now that Cory has passed, this song is more touching. And though Mark did what he did he had some heavy demons that none of us can judge as we not know the full story but another human is dead and it’s just sad. This life is just sad

    I liked the part where They showed the whole glee club on the steps ,then when She looked out the window on the train . From the first Season it started out as Nobody liking Rachael. Now They Love and adore her 😍😍😚💯and Hate to see her go😥😥 But kno She needs to follow her dreams like She planned to do Since 2009 in Season 1 episode 1😋😋🙈💨.Rachel Is What started the glee club she Was the heart. And I can't believe glee is coming to An end. The last episode Ever is coming on next Friday. I Just can believe I Remember when I Didn't Even know What this show Was till I saw it in mg chorus class then I liked and started from Season one and watched all the episodes I Was like. 😄😄😁 I Love this showwww. It show the real in people. Who their Really are and Not afraid to show it No matter how many bullies in the world more wish we had glee club at out school. I wish my school could be like this. My dream was to meet all the Season 1 through 3 cast. Don't get me wrong it Still is ( rip coryyy. 😔😔) But I also wish to be like glee. A Family. 😊😊😍😍😍😍😍

      It is. I'm watching the show now, and I'm almost finished with season 5 now. This is the first time I'm watching it, so I already knew about Finn/Cory's death before I watched this episode, and I bawled during this scene. It's so sad seeing all the memorials throughout the show after his death, but I'm glad they honored him. But I am happy Rachel eventually got a happy ending and so did Lea.

    I adore this song x when it shows Cory sending Lea in her way to fulfil her dreams it reminds me of when my dad passed away when I was 7 and the fact he told me that when I get older I was to follow my dreams - this is one of those moments she you have flashbacks about lost loved ones - but I also remember him saying that he is always in my heart no matter what x I feel a deep connection to this song now x

    2:34 - 3:01 Okay Imagine Cory listening/seeing Lea singing this part on the studio and looking at her with a soft smile (that one that Finn gave to Rachel almost every time), proud of her (of course she wouldn't notice that because she would focus on the lyrics of the song and everything)
