This post is probably long overdue and probably very overdone, but the idea has been nagging at me for months. It really all started over this past summer. I spend my summers working at Indian and Forest Acres camps. They are brother and sister camps in Maine, with kids ranging in age from 7-17. What struck me as odd was that almost every kid in camp knew all the lyrics to “Don’t Stop Believin’” by Journey.

How could this be? I wondered. I wasn’t even born yet when the song was released, and some of the kids at camp were born after Y2K (that still boggles my mind sometimes). I had totally forgotten that the pilot episode of Glee had aired just before camp started. Since then it has turned into a craze.
