This is at least the third time Glee has ripped off a cover and failed to give credit/royalties:

This is by far the most blatant: they even leave in the Coulton-version-only line "Johnny C"

Especially considering that "Johnny C" is "Jonathan Coulton"...

kind of similar to the song "rapper's delight" which lifted bars from another artist, to the extent of spelling out his name in the first line.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rappers_Delight#Grandmaster_Caz...
