Pompeii by Bastille is featured in The Untitled Rachel Berry Project, the twentieth and final episode of Season Five. It is sung by Artie, Blaine, Brittany, Kurt, Mercedes, Rachel, and Sam.

This song is performed as the final song of the season; with a montage of many pivotal moments during the episode, such as: Brittany and Mercedes leaving New York to go on tour, Sam returning to Lima, Ohio and William McKinley High School, Blaine moving back into the Bushwick Apartment and Rachel finding out that her television pilot had been picked up and her move to Los Angeles. This all is intertwined with clips of them all singing together running down the streets of NYC.

Blaine with Alumni:
Eh, eh-oh, eh-oh, eh, eh-oh, eh-oh

I was left to my own devices
Many days fell away with nothing to show

And the walls kept tumbling down
In the city that we love
Great clouds roll over the hills
Bringing darkness from above

Sam (Alumni):

And if you close your eyes (Eh, eh-oh, eh-oh)
