I can't really weigh in on the cultural meaning of Glee (does it have to mean anything? It's a cute show). But no question, this is AMAZING promo for Fleetwood Mac and IYD. Think of the effect their version of Landslide had and multiply it by 10 (at least).
Kids aren't just going to hear one song and say, "Hey, that was nice. Wasn't that by the Dixie Chicks?" They'll hear an album of songs they're probably already somewhat familiar with and hear the story behind them. What an amazing opportunity to introduce young people to the Mac--it will majorly increase interest.
As someone who wants this album to be heard, I'm pretty psyched. Great, great news that it will coincide with the release.
