Singles Ladies (Put A Ring On It) | Glee [HD FULL STUDIO] - Beyoncé
Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It) by Beyoncé is initially featured in Preggers, the fourth episode of Season One. It is performed numerous times as a dance number.
At the start of Preggers, Brittany, Kurt and Tina are seen doing the Single Ladies dance and filming it on a video camera until they are interrupted by Kurt's father, Burt. Later in the episode, when Kurt is trying out for the role of the kicker in the football team, he plays this song to help him focus, and kicks a field goal, thus becoming the kicker of the team. During the game, the entire team performs the Single Ladies dance and the crowd seems to enjoy it. They end up scoring a touchdown, due to the distraction the sudden outburst of dancing causes. With the help of the song, Kurt is able to make the kick for the game-winning extra point.
In Goodbye, the twenty-second and final episode of Season Three, Burt performs the Single Ladies routine with Brittany and Tina as a graduation gift to Kurt in the auditorium as a reminder of what he did with Brittany and Tina in their old house's basement and how that event changed the relationship between Kurt and Burt. The scene flashed between Kurt dancing from Preggers, and Burt dancing.
The song is originally performed by Beyoncé, from her third studio album I am...Sasha Fierce. It is her most successful music video, famous for the dance and various parodies of it, such as the one on Glee. Heather Morris (Brittany) performed the dance alongside Beyoncé on her tour and taught other members of the cast how to do it on the show. Brittany was then kept as a character, and has become a prominent figure.
LYRICS:
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
Now put your hands up
Up in the club, we just broke up
I'm doing my own little thing
Decided to dip but now you wanna trip
Cuz another brother noticed me
I'm up on him, you're up on me
Don't pay him any attention
Cried my tears, three good years
Ya can't be mad at me
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Don't be mad once you see that he want it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Don't be mad once you see that he want it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
I got gloss on my lips, a man on my hips
Hold me tighter than my Dereon jeans
acting up, drank in my cup
I could care less what you think
I need no permission, did I mention
Don't pay him any attention
Cuz you had your turn
But now you gonna learn
What it really feels like to miss me
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Don't be mad once you see that he want it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Don't be mad once you see that he want it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
(bridge)
Don't treat to these things of this world
I'm not that kind of girl
Your love is what I prefer, what I deserve
He's a man that makes me and takes me
And delivers me to a destiny, to infinity and beyond
Pull me into your arms
Say I'm not the one you own
If you don't, you'll be alone
And like a ghost I'll be gone
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
All the single ladies
Now put your hands up
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Don't be mad once you see that he want it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Cuz if you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
Don't be mad once you see that he want it
If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it
