Song of the Day: La La Land (“Another Day of Sun”), music by Justin Hurwitz, lyrics by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, is the jazzy ensemble choreographed number that opens this 2016 musical, starring Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. This is just one of the highlights from the Oscar-winning score. Check out that rousing opening scene filmed on location on a 130-foot-high express ramp in South Los Angeles. [YouTube link].
