well, she sounds better here than she did when I saw her in the show, but I still can't wrap my ears around the score.

I’m not sure why but almost the entire score has clicked for me and I genuinely believe it’s one of the strongest new scores we’ve heard in years. I will paint her is so passionate, melodic and captures perfectly that mood of excitement and infatuation. The running through the notes during the word ‘paint’ is not something I remember hearing before. It’s amazing!

It sounds great, but I think it should've stayed in A major from the La Jolla run instead of further straining Eden's voice.

And this music video is SICK.

I agree! I really like the score throughout. I think there’s a few too many uses of the word paint and woman/men and a song or two that doesn’t quite work but overall the most exciting score of the year definitely

There’s a lyric from late in the show quite apt for this moment that’s been running through my head, “We won’t give in / To gangs of vicious men / Why should ugliness win again?”

My favorite show this year. Where have they been hiding this video?
