      he really is, he was 19 when he started acting on Glee, making him the youngest cast member (and compared to 27 year old Cory Monteith, that’s something). He had NO vocal training at all, and he can do literally ANYTHING - dance, write, act, sing, sai swords! it’s amazing and he’s SO much better than Lea Michele (who i hope lives a life of hell)!

      YES! I remember when the songs for 4x01 leaked (they would always leak a few days before the episodes so everyone would listen to them before seeing the episode basically) most people on Glee Wiki (where I used to interact the most with other gleeks) when comenting on this song were talking about how "Oh, poor new girl, Lea is eating her up. Look at that AMAZING high note, new girl can't compete". And when the episode aired it was revealed that the high note was Melissa's and not Lea's. I never laughed so hard as a fan of the show as I did that day LMAO. She's so criminally underrated and honestly one of my favorite voices on the WHOLE show.
      And after the show ended Ryan 'leaked'/released the solo versions for both Rachel and Marley and honestly, even tho I think Lea's voice is GORGEOUS, I liked Melissa's solo version better.
