According to EW.com, GLEE's music supervisor Adam Anders has revealed details on the original music that will be featured in the show's March 15 episode. "Loser Like Me" will be sung primarily by Lea Michele and Cory Monteith and is a "Gleek anthem. It's a very uptempo, kind-of-summery hit," according to Anders. 

The second song, "Get It Right" will be sung by Lea Michele. Anders commented, "Lea's storyline kind of inspired that song for me.
