    I overall loved the choice to use it and orchestral arrangement especially, really got my attention after all the action and made me lean in to the moment and the show. What I didn’t love was Rufus Wainright’s overly syrup-y vocals. Really would have preferred the original remixed with the orchestral arrangement.

    That said, I do wonder if over time this is going to grow on me and become another Faith of the Heart. 😁

      I think you’ve hit it right on the head!

      I’ve been thinking that this is going to be precisely as divisive among fans as the syrupy, and very American-centric, cover of Faith of the Heart for Enterprise.

      Fortunately, for those who weren’t enjoying that music choice, it won’t be the title music every episode.

      The title music is boring but innocuous for our household at least.
