blaine’s performances: something’s coming
“blaine auditions for west side story with tony’s optimistic solo, even though he’s auditioning for every male lead but tony out of respect to kurt. and he kills it with an effortless, powerful performance that reminds us of blaine’s true frontman charisma. it’s the winning musical number of the episode.” X
”(..) blaine’s up next, and darren criss just gets more charming every week. his performance of ‘something’s coming’ was perfect for the role of tony — and the directors know it.” X
“he carries himself with swagger and a touch of vulnerability, anticipating his turn in the spotlight with self-assuredness.”X
“blaine, who’d previously assured Kurt that he planned to audition for bernardo or officer krupke, auditions for ‘west side story’ with tony’s ‘something’s coming,’ and he’s marvelous.” X
“he sneaks in to watch blaine’s audition - ‘something’s coming’. blaine absolutely knocks it out of the park - beiste is even all teary (..)” X
“perhaps eventually the gushing over darren criss will grow old and i will be forced to find another outlet, but this song was just amazing enough to warrant him one more collective sigh. he is absolutely made for tony.” X
“what’s there to say. darren criss’s blaine just knows how to own the stage and your tv screen.” X
“i love the way darren criss enunciates his lyrics, and the breathless charm and boyish enthusiasm he brings to his numbers.” X

heyblaine
now imagine that with kurt on his back and calves on blaine’s shoulders ^___^
“Chris had to do that number over and over again for the cameras,” said Hughes, who can be seen on the YouTube clip from the episode. “He was sweating so profusely that in-between takes someone had to run up with a blow dryer and dry him off. But he did it perfectly every time. He never complained. He was amazing.”
