And we did it thrice. Then they really launched right into a music collectively that was related tempowise and related choreographywise however was an current music as a result of we clearly couldn’t leak our music that early on. And so we filmed them singing this different music, and so we have been in a position to make use of a mixture of each what we filmed earlier than the live performance began and what we filmed throughout the live performance.” [VOCALIZING] [APPLAUSE]
