Glee: The Music, Volume 4 is an album that was released on November 30, 2010. It contained 18 songs, starting from Audition. Songs from The Rocky Horror Glee Show are not featured on the album, as they were already included on Glee: The Music, The Rocky Horror Glee Show (similar to the Season One episode, The Power of Madonna, as all those Madonna songs were released on a separate CD).

Reception[]

The album received mixed reviews from most critics. According to MTV News," Empire State of Mind lacked gravitas and the Washington Post thought it was "maybe-trying-too-hard." However, the latter also deemed Billionaire the best performance of the episode. Artists like Alicia Keys and Travie McCoy approved of their songs covered, while Spears was impressed with the cover of Stronger and Hayley Williams complimented Lea Michele's vocals on The Only Exception and Katy Perry praised Darren Criss' vocals for the a cappella version of Teenage Dream and Cee-Lo Green expressed flattery of Gwyneth Paltrow performing his song.
