Summary:
I recall not thinking much of the song when I heard it for the first time, but it didn't take long for the song to grow on me.

Overall Rating: 5.6/5


The music video for the song. It's interesting to see a digital band.



I love this Behind the Scenes performance. The dancers are Ellen Kim (straight silver hair; Akali; choreographer), Bailey Sok (short hair; Ahri), Stevie Doré (long straight hair; Kai'Sa) and Eileen Harman (wavy hair; Evelynn).*



*Note that someone made an argument for Bailey being Kai'Sa and Stevie being Ahri by matching up the final poses (3:08 in the Behind the Scenes and 3:48 in the Opening Ceremonies). However, the timing between the Behind the scenes and the music video is a stronger argument for who's who:
Ellen starts out in front when Akali is shown and singing.
When it cuts to Evelynn in the car, and she's singing, then Eileen is in front.
Then Ahri sings and Bailey comes out and does the "keep your eyes on me now" motion.
When Akali begins her solo, Ellen jumps out in front.
Evelynn sings a little part ("say I'm the fire with the blade") near the end of Akali's solo and Eileen comes out in front for it.
Ahri does her little part again ("so keep your eyes on me now") and Bailey repeats her part.
