Description
Disney/Pixar's "Elemental" caught fire late in its release cycle due to positive word-of-mouth and beautiful animation. Aptly named, one of the best parts of the movie was the Thomas Newman and Lauv collaboration "Steal the Show", which features a catchy musical motif and charming lyrics that push the story forward with a melodious love story.

More about this title
About the Artist: Lauv
Lauv is a singer-songwriter who emerged in the mid-2010s with a gift for crafting pop melodies that feel both contemporary and emotionally grounded. His collaboration with composer Thomas Newman on "Steal the Show" showcases his ability to write lyrics that serve narrative purpose while maintaining the infectious musicality that defines his work.
For educators, Lauv's music represents the kind of modern pop songwriting that resonates with student singers. His melodies sit comfortably in the voice, and his lyrics carry genuine storytelling without sacrificing singability, making his songs natural choices for choral arrangements that engage young performers.
Why we love this
Audrey Snyder's arrangement captures the charm and momentum of the original while giving singers a catchy musical motif to latch onto. The Rhythm voicing keeps the harmonic language accessible without sacrificing the contemporary pop feel that makes this song engaging for today's choirs.
What to expect
Bright and propulsive, with a melodic hook that embeds itself in the listener's mind. The arrangement sparkles with the energy of the film while maintaining the emotional sincerity at the heart of the love story.
Who it's for
Choirs seeking contemporary pop repertoire that connects to film and media students already know. The Rhythm voicing makes this accessible for mixed or treble ensembles looking for something fun, memorable, and immediately rewarding to perform.
How to get the most out of it
- Lock in the rhythmic groove early in rehearsal so the catchy motif feels natural rather than mechanical; this song lives or dies by its pocket.
- Emphasize the story arc in your phrasing; the lyrics push a love story forward, so treat this as dramatic narrative rather than purely musical entertainment.
- Balance the choral texture against the instrumental accompaniment so neither overwhelms the other. The arrangement shines when both elements breathe together.
- Capture the film's animated energy in your staging choices. This song should feel alive and playful, not overly polished.
How to use it
This works beautifully on pops or spring concert programs, where it can anchor a set of film and television music. The contemporary style and recognizable source material make it an excellent choice for audience engagement, especially when programming alongside other Disney or modern film selections.
