Section 1: Satan disciplines his daughter - this movement was inspired by great badguy songs: “Mother Knows Best: Reprise” from Tangled, “Be Prepared” from Lion King, “Confrontation” from Jekyel and Hyde.By the time I came back from the expo I had a musical number that had four distinct sections. Then each night I would listen to what I sang and write lyrics, tweak the melody, etc. Over the course of the con, in between panels and running a tabletop game for some Saints Row fans, inspiration would strike and I would run to various corners of the convention hall and sing a melody into my cell phone. The melody came to me while I was speaking at the Escapist Expo.
And second: as a lifelong fan of Disney movies and musical theater (fun fact: we had an impromptu sing along to “Any Dream Will Do” while recording Robin Atkin Downes) writing an original song for Saints Row was a dream come true. This was exciting to me for two reasons: First, the introduction of a musical number wasn’t going to be just some gag, it (like all musicals) was going to convey central plot points and character motivation just like any cutscene.
