LIVE CHAT: The Song in Your Heart

[Worsel]

I really like Hook's song and the choreography is great also

[Jul 68]

Love this song. Colin is even charismatic when singing. He's the perfect man. Swoon. His wife is one lucky lady.

So Snow and Charming had already met Hook?  But somehow Snow doesn't recognize "Blacksmith Hook" a few (sort of ) years later?

Don't think of the plot holes sweetie, but beware or you might fall in.

[ParadoxLost]

Why did Snow and Charming realize they are singing and Hook didn't find it odd?

[Writing Wrongs]

Hook's song reminds me of the Queen song from Ella Enchanted.

[Mari]

Oh, joy!  It's Henry here to make sure Emma knows the only thing he really wants from her is evil-fighting. 

[FormerMod-a1]

I don't mind the plot hole(s), because Hook! singing!  and previously Hi ho! and Mirror!

[Worsel]

so is it Emma's singing that is supposed to win the battle?  There has to be something about it since they keep pointing out her singing as a kid and playing the tape

[Jul 68]

What the what?! Henry brought her to Storybrooke to break the curse, not my neck from another retcon whiplash.

[jhlipton]

The tape (and recorder) that she had as a kid (but didn't have when she was living on the street).  TSTW

[scenicbyway]

Yay!  Henry didn't have to sing, I bet he takes after Regina in that regard.

Also the pirate number is awesome, clearly they had performed it before.  Probably on the deck of the Jolly.

[Shanna Marie]

Does anyone know if Colin has a choir background? I know he's doing rock stuff now, and there were a few rock touches in his song, but his technique sounds like a choral singer. And he has excellent high notes.

But as catchy as the song is, it's basically just repeating his core character trait from that time period. I wish the songs went a bit deeper and said something these characters might not have said if they weren't singing.

[Worsel]

Imp Rumple!!!

If they did, it would be a retcon.  TSTW

[Worsel]

I'd rather gouge my eyes out with a rusty fork!!!   LMAO

[Jul 68]

Did they put Lana in black and feathers to compare her to BF?

[scenicbyway]

Atleast Rumple has some sense not to sing...

[Worsel]

Bex has a great singing voice!

[Mari]

Okay.  The Rumple/Regina scene was excellent.

Then, we got to hear some more about how Zelena's upset about being rejected.  Aren't we supposed to be prepping for a wedding?

[ParadoxLost]

Its funny that Rumple is declaring that the Dark One doesn't sing.

RC is the only one who years ago when the musical idea first came up told the press he didn't want to do it.

[ABitOFluff]

Zelena! I've been waiting for this. Wondered if flying monkeys were involved.

[scenicbyway]

Bex has a great voice, it's saving us from another Regina song.  But her character isn't needed.

[Jul 68]

"What they call green with envy, I just call looking good"  I love that line!

[Worsel]

Lots of clevilage in the scene with Zelena

[Mari]

So, does the Mayor's office just automatically belong to whoever's the villain? 

 

At least she matches.

[scenicbyway]

Seriously, why can't Emma just have a spa day?

She's a part of the Cleavage of Evil!

[gik910]

Why?  Why have they not figured out how to keep people from zapping things out of their hands?!?!  It is infuriating.  

[Mari]

This season already had a spa day.  Ungrateful peasant.  Take your Regina/Zelena spa day and be grateful.

 

:)

[scenicbyway]

Apparently the Black Fairy can cure dreamshade?  Why does Rumple think his family will stay together?  They will be cursed too!  Ugh...

[Jul 68]

Did anyone else just see a Kay commercial for wedding rings? Smart move on their part.

[Worsel]

Probably they made a deal where Rumple and BF and Belle and Gideon will be immune from the curse

Love begins with Blood Diamonds!

[Shanna Marie]

Zelena's song mostly seems to exist because Bex is too good a singer to waste in a musical episode. It really has no point.

I think most of these songs would be perfect if this were a self-contained musical. They're the perfect songs to introduce characters. The problem is that this is season six. So, if we met the Charmings singing about hope and happy endings, and then they introduced Hook as a character with the Revenge song and Regina with her hatred of Snow and Zelena singing about being wicked, it would have made for a great act one of a musical.

And I still need a reason why the Black Fairy gives a damn about defeating Emma. There's got to be more than just Because Prophecy.

[Curio]

Wait, why didn't the Black Fairy freeze Henry too?

[scenicbyway]

So Ems just left her family frozen in the office?  Also, why is Henry exempt from being frozen?

[Shanna Marie]

Just now, Curio said:

It's proof of how evil she is.

[Worsel]

Love the look of disgust on Regina's face when Charming and Snow started singing.

[gik910]

How did she get to the sherif's station?  

Why is Emma suddenly no longer smart and ready to give up?

Ha- Regina's face when they started singing - that was actually funny.

[Jul 68]

Because he wasn't in the room when Rumpy stole the potion.

[Mari]

There's a decided lack of Emma and Hook for an episode that's supposed to be an Emma/Hook wedding episode.

 

But, hey, we got to hear Regina sing again.  So, there's that. 

[scenicbyway]

Hilarious!  Snow and Charms singing away a fireball?! Ha!

[gik910]

Snow- use an arrow.

Emma's giving up because she obviously needs a nap!  She looks exhausted!

[Jul 68]

If Charmz hadn't hesitated, Regina would have been dead. I thought he was smarter than that.

Nice last minute deus ex machina from Blue.

reasons

[ABitOFluff]

I've always had a soft spot for Josh, but now he's the Disney Prince Charming in my mind. The parent company needs to use his skills more.

Edited May 8, 2017 by ABitOFluff
Stupid slow connection. Josh Dallas for official Disney Prince!

[Worsel]

At least we were spared a Blue Fairy song

[jhlipton]

Blue's here to be as unhelpful as ever

[scenicbyway]

I wonder if we'll ever find out why Blue is sketchy.
