Okay here we go:

The episode was magical in every way imaginable (hey that rhymed!) Before I watched the episode I watched some youtube video on the OUaT cast singing, and I was like, Jennifer is going to be the only good one out of all of them. But clearly I was proven wrong, the whole cast blew me away.

Powerful Magic went really well, both are freaking phenomenal singers and it was an enjoyable number. The Queen Sings/Love Doesn't Stand A Chance was pretty good, but it didn't really top the first one in my opinion. I love how raspy Lana's voice is. Hook sounded awesome in Revenge Is Gonna Be Mine I'm so proud holy cow! It's like I knew he was good but, whoa. Wicked Always Wins was probably my favorite number in the song, the whole concept of her flying around Oz and scaring munchkins was hysterical and Rebecca's voice is just spectacular. Charmings Vs. Evil Queen was good, the people who wrote it found a good way to balance out both of the songs to fit into that number. But that ending had me shook. Emma's Theme wasn't as good as I imagined it, but it still was great, the video I watched of her singing sounded better in my opinion. A Happy Beginning was a nice fun way to end the show with the wedding, and everyone basically got a chance to sing.

Where in the world was Belle though? She just randomly disappeared for that entire episode? I feel like the transition between Emma saving her family and the wedding was really rushed, but that's probably because they couldn't find another way to cram it in there to keep it one hour.

Overall it was a great episode. Magical in every way. Waiting for the soundtrack to be on iTunes or Apple Music so I can get it already .w.
