We’re almost at the end of this music battle! Before we put our finalists head to head in the grand finale next week, we need to battle out all of the songs from the Revival Era. This episode proved extra tough with the stiff competition we got from films like Princess and the Frog, Tangled, Frozen, Moana, and Encanto. Which songs will be crowned as our Top 4? Why does Clayton have such a hard time remembering “Almost There”? Why are we such foolish mortals that we incorrectly name that song as “The Wish” rather than “This Wish”? Better alleviate all this suspense and just hit play on this episode to witness all the chaos for yourself. Also, prepare yourself for a record breaking amount of “singing”. What can we say except….
