When Glee premiered in May 2009, it initially had modest viewership numbers but quickly gained success with its rendition of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" becoming a Top Five hit. The show's partnership with Columbia Records led to the release of successful albums, starting with Glee: The Music, Vol. 1 in November 2009, which achieved gold and platinum status.
Throughout its seasons, Glee continued to release successful soundtracks and albums, featuring a mix of original songs and popular covers. The show garnered critical acclaim, multiple Golden Globe awards, and set records on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Glee's musical success extended beyond the TV screen with spinoff projects like The Glee Project and Glee: The 3D Concert Movie, ultimately concluding its run in 2015 after a successful six-season run.
