2CELLOS appeared on Glee!

This has been thrown around on my flist, but in celebration/revelation of its performance on this week's Glee, I gotta display it again in case anyone missed it: the sublime cello performance (and, let's face it, the slashiest you'll ever see) by Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser (a/k/a 2CELLOS) performing "Smooth Criminal":

Glee had a Michael Jackson-themed episode, and I found myself wondering if they'd do Smooth Criminal, thinking, "But nothing can ever top the cello version." Guys, they GOT SULIC AND HAUSER THEMSELVES TO PERFORM THE CELLO VERSION IN THE SHOW. I died of joy.

As a professional cello major yes, I have seen this many times.

...I gave up Glee a while ago, but this was on it?

They had a sequence where Santana and Sebastian got into each other's faces in a music room set up very much like the one in this video, and as the musicians start to leave after their practice, Santana asks the "cello guys" to stay and accompany them in a sing-off duel, and it's all done in the style of this very video!

Huh, that sounds silly, but interesting. The fact that the guys came and performed themselves is pretty cool, though.

Yes, that. That it's them and done like that very video!

Ha! Bet you've been swamped with it. ^_^ Ooh, you're a cello major, that makes my heart pound faster! Love stringed instruments.
