I posted this Friday but it took hours to be approved and got buried by the FFAF after 30 mins.

Anyway, super excited, can't wait, will probably be the highlight of the show.

I agree VoG is so powerful and it works so well with the last scene.

I think the lyrics are what sell the song the most- VoG is too vague and less commercial sounding (thought I love VoG more)

It's a better choice as a stand-alone song for a wide audience, imo. I like VoG more personally.
