The original song choice was Human League's "Don't You Want Me?" However, this song choice has changed and the new decision is the Glee edition of Bruno Mars "Marry You"
Reasons for this song change is simply because Human League was an incredibly difficult genre to work with. The genre was "New-Wave;" something which was foreign to the group, which would therefore be foreign to the audience. The codes and conventions in the original Human League video were also hard to grasp. However Bruno Mars' song is a new up to date vocal, with an easily adaptable genre, making it easier to portray, and as Glee is a very popular programme, this song choice conforms better to our understanding.
