Full context for each beneath the cut, because the poll options have character limits and the Epics are LONG:
King of diamonds, king of spades / Hades was king of a kingdom of dirt / Miners of mines, diggers of graves / They bowed down to Hades who gave them work / And they bowed down to Hades who made them sweat/Who paid them their wages and set them about / Digging / And dredging / And dragging the depths of the earth / To turn its insides out (Vermont, Concept Album, NYTW)
And he bowed down to no one, below or above / 'Til the arrow of Eros struck him in the heart / And the king of the underworld fell in love / With a woman who walked in a garden (London)
And the earth warmed over in the dead of winter / The stillborn spring lay cold beneath / Summer gave a stormy sermon / Autumn walked in its wake like a wreath / And the people moved like weather patterns / Looking for shelter, looking for warmth / Helter-skelter, the four winds scattered / The scavengers over the ravaged earth (Vermont)
And a million feet that fell in line / And stepped in time with Hades' step / And a million minds that were just one mind / Like stones in a row / As stone by stone / Row by row / The river rose up (Concept Album, NYTW)
Hades is king of the scythe and the sword / He covers the world in the color of rust / He scrapes the sky and scars the earth / And he comes down heavy and hard on us (Concept Album, NYTW)
And the sun rose and fell in his chest as he held her / He felt the earth moving without and within / And there were no words for the way that he felt / So he opened his mouth and he started to sing (London)
The heart of the king is a tinderbox / That he has to keep under lock and key / That it not catch fire inside of his chest / 'Cause a lover's desire is a mutiny / A lover's desire is a wilderness (Vermont)
In the dark of the mine, he is trying to fill / The hole that his lover has left in his arms / With the silver and gold / He can have and hold / Not half, but whole / All to himself (Broadway previews, with some lines from Vermont)

The West End lyric change for Epic III seems to (in part) be pushing more and more for Orpheus and Eurydice to mirror Hades and Persephone. Not only does Orpheus "know how it was" to fall in love, but now he knows "how it is" to be left alone like Hades. There's that new hole of doubt that is there in his mind as he tries to take Eurydice home.

Hi. Recent fan. I don't know if you're still involved with the Hades and Persephone Vegebul AU, BUT!
Hadestown Epic III, (Live recording. Not the official track on broadway), the first half of the song. When Vegeta meets Bulma because:
But even that hardest of hearts unhardened
Suddenly, when he saw her there
Persephone in her mother’s garden
Sun on her shoulders, wind in her hair
The smell of the flowers she held in her hand
And the pollen that fell from her fingertips
And suddenly Hades was only a man
With a taste of nectar upon his lips, singing:
La la la la la la la…
I just think it would be lovely.
so i loved your question so... i listened to it and now it's my head ;-;!!! Good choice!

So I’ve seen that a lot of people like the off broadway version of epic iii more, and I totally agree. /but even that hardest of hearts/ is one of my favourite lines in the whole musical
But i think the change that I personally dislike the most is taking out Persephone’s monologue in Chant ii. Like cmon the parallels

Musical Theatre Song Contest: Round Three C

Submitter’s propaganda under the cut
All You Wanna Do
Deeper symbolism, catchy pop that reflects characters and gut wrenching lyrics and dance symbolism. As well as in one version she didn’t stop weeping after her head was cut off.
It's catchy and fun but also really sad and just. Very well done. Especially the live version where she sobs at the end
This song was mindblowing the first time I heard it. It lures you in with a catchy beat, then slowly, you start realizing how deeply fucked Katherine's story is and how disturbing the song is. It's amazing.
A really upbeat peppy song that makes you sympathize with the protagonist but simultaneously makes you feel murderous
The way the chorus gradually changes from boasting about how men want to sleep with her to despair that that’s all they want is just so
