The lyrics of "You're the One That I Want" by Cory Monteith and Lea Michele is a duet cover of the popular song from the musical Grease. The song talks about two people who are attracted to each other, and as they both realize this, their emotions are described as powerful and uncontrollable, like electricity. The phrase "I got chills, they're multiplying, and I'm losing control" reflects this intense emotion. Both the man and the woman want each other, but they demand that their partner shape up to fit their ideals of what they want in a man or woman. At the end, the two sing the chorus repeatedly, declaring that they have found the one they want and need.
The song reflects the themes and attitudes of the musical Grease, which is set in the 1950s and explores teenage love, rebellion, and social norms. The lyrics of "You're the One That I Want" reflect the characters' struggles to conform to social expectations while also following their hearts. The line "to my heart, I must be true" suggests that love conquers all and that the characters will follow their passions even if it goes against social expectations. The song is a celebration of love as a passionate force that cannot be controlled.

Marley is perfect. Her voice, her look and her personality. There should've been more solos and a more complete and better storyline for her. This character is soooo underrated.
