Girls on Film by Duran Duran is featured in The Untitled Rachel Berry Project, the twentieth and final episode of Season Five. It is sung by Sam.
The performance takes place during Sam's modeling audition. Many of the female models flirt and gyrate against the male models, and the photographer, Charlie Darling, has her eyes on Sam throughout the entire performance, eventually pushing him onto the sofa and making a move.

Sam:
See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashin' out, it's so bright
Then walk right out to the four line track
There's a camera rollin' on her back, on her back
And I sense the rhythm hummin' in a frenzy all the way down her spine
Girls on film, girls on film
Girls on film, girls on film
Lipstick cherry all over the lens as she's falling
In miles of sharp blue water comin' in where she lies
The diving man's comin' up for air
'Cause the crowd all love pulling Dolly by the hair
Sam with Charlie:
By the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again
Sam:
Girls on film (Two minutes later) Girls on film
Girls on film (Got your picture) Girls on film
Sam with Charlie:
Wider baby, smiling, you just made a million
Fuses pumping live, heat twisting out on a wire
Sam
Take one last glimpse into the night
I'm touching close, I'm holding bright
Sam with Charlie (Sam):
Holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till I'm shooting a star
Girls on film (She's more than a lady) Girls on film
Girls on film (Two minutes later) Girls on film
Girls on film (See you together) Girls on film
(Yeah) Girls on film
