music in Steven Universe

[brainwane]

Post-WisCon, I have a new hairdo (a pretty butch sort of fauxhawk) and my spouse and I have started watching Steven Universe. We're around the beginning of Season 3 I think which means we just saw the episode that had the duet-with-piano "Do It For Her". Is it just me or is that the song (so far) that sounds most like it could fit into a Broadway show? Like, change the words a little and it could go into Wicked?

(Also the theme tune just switched to a new arrangement and I am still getting used to this.)

It might be, but, um, there's an episode coming up that does this even harder. It's sort of amazing.

As I was walking down the street with the kid this afternoon, I heard someone singing Do It For Her, and when I was like "Hey, that's from Steven Universe!" she got really excited and long story short we wound up singing a duet version of Stronger Than You for the next several blocks, until she had to turn left. Made me so happy.
