On Thursday Aug. 3rd, Yuri and I linked up to prepare this year's Opening Ceremony serenade. Unfortunately, when it came time to share, things were running behind + the song was cut. But since we had recorded this lil rehearsal demo, I wanted to share it here! If you were at the Ceremony last year, you would've heard us do a shorter version of this :3 I loved singing for you all, and hopefully will be able to again next year.
