Here is a little history of the song Time Warp that the Glee Cast made a cover of from a Wikipedia page.
"The Time Warp" is a song and dance featured in the 1973 rock musical The Rocky Horror Show and in the 1975 film adaption The Rocky Horror Picture Show, performed during the chorus of the song of the same name. The song is both an example and a parody of the dance song genre in which much of the content of the song is given over to dance step instructions. The dance is one of the major audience-participation activities during screenings of the film and performances of the show. It has become a popular song beyond the reaches of the film and show, and is often played at dances and weddings.
When I first saw the track list of the Glee OST for Rocky Horror Glee Show the other week, I took little interest as I have never seen the original 70's show. I never recognized any of the songs on the list so I took little interest. But after seeing the preview clips from Glee season 2 episode 5 and having a look at their Time Warp video, I was mesmerized!
Listen to the track below as Kurt, Quinn, Britney, Tina, and Artie fronts the number.
