Section 3: Kinzie and Johnny have self-doubt – this was a nod to musical theater: lots of over-acting while a piano vamps, the singing dialogue rather than speaking it: think “Into The Woods (Prologue)” from Into The Woods, “My Friends” from Sweeny Todd. Section 2: Jezebel expresses her wants – this movement was inspired by Disney princess songs: “Reflection” from Mulan, “A Part of Your World” from Little Mermaid, “When Will My Life Begin” from Tangled, “Almost There” from Princess and the Frog. 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 theatre (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.
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. So when we decided that Gat out of Hell was going to be Saints Row’s take on a Disney-esque fairy tale, we knew pretty early on that a musical number was essential to the experience.
How The Saints Save Christmas ends with a Christmas montage (originally set to “All I Want For Christmas Is You” by Mariah Carey). Saints Row IV added dance into the mix (originally we wanted to end with a Bollywood dance number but scope reduction transformed it into the soul train line). 
Saints Row: The Third showcased the sing alongs as a bonding moment between characters, as well as key licensed tracks to enhance emotion.Saints Row was inspired by over the top hip hop music videos.So, music has always been an important part of the Saints Row franchise: It’s great to be here on PlayStation Blog.
