You Can't Stop the Beat - Glee - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The TV series Glee is responsible for exposing so many young people to music they might not have ever heard. During its successful six-year run, the talented cast sang jazz, classic rock, country, R&B, and songs from lots of musicals. "You Can't Stop the Beat" is the finale of the Broadway musical Hairspray. It's a 60s style explosion of ensemble singing over a rocking band. The song celebrates the power of music but also the power of positive social change that can't be stopped. The musical, adapted from John Water's film of the same name, includes themes of integration and the love between the characters Seaweed, who is black, and Penny, who is white. "You can't stop the river as it rushes to the sea / You can try to stop the hands of time, but you know it just can't be! / And if they try to stop us, Seaweed, I've got the N double A.C.P."
The backing track for “You Can't Stop the Beat” is available with background vocals or as an instrumental on Karaoke Version.
