Rather Be by Clean Bandit featuring Jess Glynne is featured in The Rise and Fall of Sue Sylvester, the tenth episode of Season Six. It is sung by New Directions.

It is the opening number of the episode. New Directions are rehearsing in the auditorium with Will watching. In the middle of the performance, Kurt and Blaine enter the auditorium with sad faces and sit, as Jane ends the song. Will notices them and ask them what they think of the kids performance. When they didn't answer, Will ask them what's wrong and Blaine replies that Dalton Academy has burned to the ground.

Lyrics[]

Jane:
Oh, oh
Woah, yeah

We're a thousand miles from comfort
We have traveled land and sea
But as long as you are with me
There's no place I'd rather be

Kitty with New Directions:
I would wait forever
Exalted in the scene
As long as I am with you
My heart continues to beat

Spencer:
With every step we take
Kyoto to The Bay
Strolling so casually

Spencer with Alistair:
We're different and the same
Get you another name
Switch up the batteries

Roderick (and Jane) with Kitty, Myron, and New Directions:
If you gave me a chance (I would take it)
It's a shot in the dark (but I'll make it)

Madison and Roderick with Kitty and New Directions:
Know with all of your heart you can't shake me

Roderick with Kitty, Madison, Myron, and New Directions:
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be

Jane with Alistair, Spencer, and New Directions:
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be

Jane:
Ooh-ooh

Myron:
We set out on a mission
To find our inner peace
Make it everlasting
So nothing's incomplete

Jane (and Mason):
It's easy being with you
(Sacred simplicity)
As long as we're together
(There's no place I'd rather be)

Mason with Kitty (and Jane):
With every step we take
Kyoto to The Bay
Strolling so casually

We're different and the same
Get you another name
Switch up (the batteries)

Jane:
Yeah

Roderick (and Jane) with Kitty, Myron, and New Directions:
If you gave me a chance (I would take it)
It's a shot in the dark (but I'll make it)

Madison and Roderick with Kitty and New Directions:
Know with all of your heart you can't shake me

Roderick with Kitty, Madison, Myron, and New Directions:
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be

Jane with Alistair, Spencer, and New Directions (New Directions):
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be (No, no, no)
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be (No, no, no)
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be

When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be

Jane (Kitty and Roderick):
Yeah (Be)

Kitty:
Ooh-ooh

Jane:
Be, be, be, be, be
Be, be, be, be

Jane with New Directions:
Yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah-e-yeah, yeah, yeah

Jane and Roderick with Kitty, Myron, and New Directions (Roderick with Kitty, Myron, and New Directions):
(If you) gave me a chance I would take it
It's a shot in the dark but I'll make it

Madison and Roderick with Kitty and New Directions:
Know with all of your heart you can't shake me

Roderick with Kitty, Madison, Myron, and New Directions:
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be (Jane: Be)

Myron with Alistair, Kitty, Spencer, and New Directions (New Directions):
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be (No, no, no)
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be (No, no, no)
N-n-no, no, no, no place I'd rather be (Jane: No, no)

Jane:
When I am with you, there's no place I'd rather be
