Hey, Soul Sister by Train is featured in Special Education, the ninth episode of Season Two. It is sung by the Warblers as their song for Sectionals. It made them win Sectionals, tying with the New Directions and allowing them to move on to Regionals. Blaine is the only Warbler to get a solo in this song.
Kurt is seen with the Warblers as he transferred to Dalton Academy. During the performance, he looks a little ashamed to be singing in the background and not on lead, but Rachel reminds him to smile.
Lyrics[]
Blaine with the Warblers vocalizing (The Warblers):
He-ey, he-e-e-e-ey, he-e-e-e-ey (Tonight)
(He-ey) He-ey
(He-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
(He-e-e-e-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
Your lipstick stains
On the front lobe of my left side brains
I knew I wouldn't forget you
And so I went and let you blow my mind (Let you blow my mind)
Your sweet moonbeam (Sweet moonbeam)
The smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided
You're the one I have decided who's one of my kind (One of my kind)
Hey, soul sister
Ain't that mister, mister on the radio, stereo
The way you move ain't fair, you know
Hey, soul sister
I don't want to miss a single thing you do
Tonight
(He-ey) He-ey
(He-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
(He-e-e-e-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
Just in time
I'm so glad you have a one-track mind like me
You gave my life direction
A game show love connection we can't deny
I'm so obsessed (I'm so obsessed)
My heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you're Madonna
And I'm always gonna want to blow your mind
Hey, soul sister
Ain't that mister, mister on the radio, stereo
The way you move ain't fair, you know
Hey, soul sister
I don't want to miss a single thing you do
Tonight
The way you can cut a rug
Watching you's the only drug I need
So gangster, I'm so thug
You're the only one I'm dreaming of, you see
I can be myself now, finally
In fact there's nothing I can't be (Nothing I can't be)
I want the world to see you be with me
Hey, soul sister
Ain't that mister, mister on the radio, stereo
The way you move ain't fair, you know
Hey, soul sister (Hey, soul sister)
I don't want to miss a single thing you do
Tonight
Hey, soul sister (Hey, soul sister)
I don't want to miss a single thing you do
Tonight
(He-ey) He-ey
(He-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
(He-e-e-e-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
Tonight
(He-ey) He-ey
(He-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
(He-e-e-e-ey) He-e-e-e-ey
Tonight
Trivia[]
- In Sadie Hawkins, Sam does an impression of this song.
- This song was sung as a homework assignment on The Glee Project's episode Dance-ability.
Mistakes[]
- At the beginning of the number, you can see the still nameless Warbler portrayed by Jon Hall (right behind Blaine) that starts singing alongside the others, to then start beatboxing when needed. During the first 3/4 angle changes, you see him repeatedly switching between singing and beatboxing while you keep hearing the beat.
