Yeah, not much to comment on. The only edit I noticed to the street story was they lifted the entire Hooper's Store scene out. That new Sara Barellis song was pretty good too.

There was an odd edit on the ETM segment: they cut out the second version of the "It's in Half" song, and so they redubbed Velvet's line ("You've repaired two things cut in half. Is that a coincidence or a plot device?") to say "One thing cut in half," but kept the rest of the line, which makes no sense at all.

Well now I know what episode this is; the only thing I ever saw from this episode prior was the end where everybody is marching down into the alley while singing. But hey, I liked it. All of the songs were really fun, especially Chris's parody of "Shout." That and I also enjoyed the cameos we got from Stephanie, Carmen, and Tyler in the laundromat.

I'm not actually able to watch this episode but I have seen the street scene, the ETM segment and the Sarah Barelles song before. So effectively i've seen most of the episode.

Music Magic is definitely one of my favorite recent street stories, all of the songs are really catchy and it's a pretty well developed story. It's really cool to see Carmen, Tyler and Stephanie cameo.

After watching the song with Sarah Bar- however you spell her last name, i've come to a conclusion. So far most of the songs this season have been really underwhelming.
