Jonathan Coulton says Glee ripped off his cover of "Baby Got Back"

Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
Glee is a lot of things, but "especially creative when it comes to its arrangements" isn't one of them. After basically lifting Pedra Haden’s cover of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin'” for its 2009 premiere, the show’s gone to the pilfering-from-indie-artists well again. On an upcoming episode, characters sing a smoothed-out version of Sir Mix-A-Lot’s classic “Baby Got Back”—a version that is, nearly note-for-note, the exact same arrangement that Jonathan Coulton released back in 2005.
