As expected, Brun's new stage-mates dial up the drama - Ek works extensively on soundtracks - on her torch songs, with covers of Beyoncé (Halo), Björk (Joga) and even Shakespeare (Sonnet 138: When My Love Swears She is Full of Truth) adding to the enchantment - and envy.
A reunion in the studio would be no bad thing. With nights closing in, you're in the best of good company here.
