the entirety of "Just For Once" is like really fuckin emotionally captivating alright and we can all attribute that to Lauren Lopez's incredible performance (like holy fuck those high notes), the layered lyrics, and the thin line of Ruth singing as the Barbecue Monologue character and her singing as herself but you wanna know what REALLY got me crying because of how Lauren's eyes and delivery really makes it clear that Ruth is speaking as herself?

"I used to dance. I used to dance."

#tHAT LINE #a GUT PUNCH OF A LINE #like while watchjng the proshot for the first time i was thinking that the top kicker would be lauren's JUST FOR OOOOOOONCE high notes #and that is indeed a top kicker BUT I WASN'T EXPECTING TO BE PUNCHED WITH 4 QUIET WORDS #like look at how quietly that line is delivered especially after ruth sang her lungs off #like gjcjd i cant properly explain just how evocative that line is but holy fuck #it truly solidifies ruth as a tragic character in my opinion like damn #nerdy prudes must die #npmd spoilers #starkid #lauren lopez
