For the second straight week, Glee on Tuesday night is going to focus more on the story rather than some of the music, but that doesn’t mean that the show is lacking when it comes to some fun performances themed around one of the biggest moments in the life of every high school student.

Considering that the title of the episode is “Prom-asaurus,” the first song on the list should not come as a surprise at all. From there, things get a bit more interesting.

“Dinosaur,” Heather Morris – Does Heather do a fantastic Ke$ha impression? Definitely. As for originality here, though, this song is pretty much identical to its original version.

This is one of those performances that we are at a disadvantage with when it comes to just hearing the audio. Heather’s Brittany S. Pearce is such a fun and dynamic performer that not getting to see her dance around in some sort of over-the-top prehistoric outfit takes away from what should ultimately be a pretty good time.

“Love You Like a Love Song,” Naya Rivera – It totally makes sense on every level for the show to cover this song. Selena Gomez is big star right now (especially with the show’s young demographic), and this song has been all over the charts.

Musically, it’s pretty similar to the Brittany song above in that Naya’s Santana sings pretty much the same arrangement as the original artist — but part of the fun here is going to be hearing it sang to Brittany on the actual show.

“What Makes You Beautiful,” Chord Overstreet, Harry Shum Jr., Kevin McHale, Samuel Larsen, and Damian McGinty – We’ve already seen One Direction fans trashing this song online, and we get it — the British boy band sings it better, and no one can compare.

With that being said, we actually think that this is our favorite performance of the episode. It gives Rory a chance to sing for the first time in weeks, and it’s just fun to hear this combination of voices together. Of course, it is ironic in a way that two freshmen and a junior are performing at a senior prom.

“Take My Breath Away,” Naya Rivera and Dianna Agron – This is certainly one of the songs that we are interested in finding out the context for. Is this just a random prom performance, or something more? We can see Naya performing this song for Brittany, but despite the hints at a Quinn / Joe pairing the two are not even officially together.

This song could have used a modern update musically, though — it feels pretty dated from the opening vocals.

“Big Girls Don’t Cry,” Lea Michele, Darren Criss, and Chris Colfer – We’re also a bit unsure about this song in terms of how these three are the ones singing it — though outside of that, we certainly understand the meaning behind it.

Expect “Big Girls” to be the sort of senior goodbye song in the vein of what we are going to hear over the course of the next several weeks — as for the benefit for the audience, it’s recent enough for most viewers to remember when it first came out.

Chord Overstreet wasn’t ready to write off “Glee” after leaving at the end of last season.

Good thing, too.

The blond singer (nicknamed Trouty Mouth on the show) was called back, tossed into the swim team and given a “Grease” duet just months into the third season.

“It was like putting my shoes on again,” he says. “It was fun.

“Once you jump into it for the first time and you go through the tour and all that stuff, it’s pretty easy coming back.”

“Glee” moves at such a breakneck pace, there’s really no time to wonder “why?” or “why now?”

“The producers asked if I wanted to come back and I said, ‘Yeah, sure,’” Overstreet explains. (According to outside sources, he was offered a guest star spot at the end of the season but declined because there were no additional guarantees.)

During the break, the 23-year-old Nashville native filmed an episode of “The Middle” and worked on his music. “I got a lot accomplished. But I had no idea if I’d ever be back on ‘Glee.’ Everything was up in the air.”

The call came so quickly Overstreet didn’t finish his album — but that’ll come in due time, he says.

Meanwhile, he’s enjoying the success his brother Nash is having in the hit group Hot Chelle Rae (Chord’s in one of its videos) and working with his father, singer/songwriter Paul Overstreet, on songs.

“My dad’s a huge influence on me and my brother as far as the music goes,” Overstreet says. “He’s definitely a great person to have in your ear, giving you advice and helping you out.”

The three write together frequently and support each other’s work.

Advising him about “Glee,” however, is a bit difficult.

The Fox musical comedy isn’t like any other entertainment industry job. ‘You’ve got a lot of dance rehearsals, pre-records, music videos and acting to do. It’s a lot of work, but I enjoy it.”

Graduation? Overstreet has no clue. “I’ve never heard my grade mentioned, so who knows?”

And that Trouty Mouth nickname? “Who knows where that came from? It was one of the writers — probably Ian Brennan — just goofing around…but I don’t mind.”

To be back on “Glee,” Overstreet says, is very comforting. “I’m having a blast and loving life now. I’m just going day by day.”
