Listen: Gwyneth Paltrow Covers Adele's 'Turning Tables'

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted Apr 18th 2011 10:10AM

In tomorrow night's episode, Adele is getting the 'Glee' treatment. Gwyneth Paltrow will cover the Brit singer's 'Turning Tables' off of her new album, '21.'

Gwyneth killed her performance of Cee Lo Green's 'Forget You' during her first appearance on the FOX show and now has Gleeks everywhere begging for her to be a regular at William McKinley High. And now that she's romancing Mr. Schu, they might get just that.

But was 'Glee' co-creator, Ryan Murphy's idea to have Paltrow cover such a vocally challenging song a good idea? Take a listen (via Just Jared) and sound off in a comment.

Yes, Gwyneth, you can sing. We get it. But must you shove it down peoples' throats now?

It's an okay performance. Her voice is a little thin/ lacks depth and has no soul which really shows on this song. When Adele sings it, it's haunting. It sounds like a Glee performance. Very canned.

She sounds good. But it is no Adele. Gweneth can sing and love her being on glee.

IT’S NOT THE SAME, SHE CAN SING I WILL GIVE HER THAT BUT THIS SONG IS MEANT TO BE POWERFUL AND STRONG AND IT LOSES ITS DEPTH AND POWER. BUT IT’S OKAY

Wow. I've been singing since 1970, and she is really good. Perhaps not A+ Streisand, but certainly a solid A. Very nice.
It's certainly a good second career after movies.

Good enough, I'm surprised she could actually sing this song.
