"The Song in Your Heart" is the twentieth episode of the sixth season of the American fantasy drama series Once Upon a Time, which aired on May 7, 2017. This episode is billed as a musical episode, which marks a departure from the typical dramatic elements featured in the series. In this outing, Emma and Hook prepare for their wedding, but Fiona is preparing a plot that will begin the Final Battle. In the past, Snow and David make a wish that results in the entire Enchanted Forest breaking out in song.
An orchestra is featured in the Forest, playing the theme song.
The Storybrooke events take place after the current events of "The Black Fairy" and in 1991 after "Tougher Than the Rest", while the flashback events in the Enchanted Forest occur after the pilot episode, before "The Stranger," and the events in Oz prior to "Heart of Gold."
At a group childrens' home in Minnesota, Emma records herself singing, only to have another girl interrupt her, reminding Emma that she'll always be an orphan.
After talking with Rumplestiltskin in the castle dungeon, Snow makes a wish that her future daughter will be happy and safe before the Curse takes place. The next day the wish comes true: Snow and David start breaking into song and they realize that they can defeat Regina through the power of music ("Powerful Magic"). The wish also affects Regina, who starts noticing that the entire forest is singing ("The Queen Sings") and makes a plan to destroy everyone's happiness ("Love Doesn't Stand a Chance").
Meanwhile, David and Snow visit a tavern to enlist Hook into helping them search for Regina. Hook refuses their offer of gold and explains that revenge on Rumplestiltskin is all he desires ("Revenge Is Mine"), which the Charmings agree to let him have. Regina visits Rumplestiltskin at his cell, who is not affected by the wish. Regina asks for his help in erasing the wish but he refuses, telling her to figure out a way in order to prove herself. In Oz, Zelena spies on their conversation and believes that Rumplestiltskin might come to regret choosing Regina over her. She prepares a spell for Regina to end the wish which she will take credit for ("Wicked Always Wins").
Snow and David confront Regina and the song spell seems to make Regina's magic ineffective against the Charmings ("Charmings Vs. Evil Queen"), but Regina uses a magic box she had found (which contains Zelena's spell) to stop them from singing and sends them back to their castle. Upon their return, the Blue Fairy appears to Snow and David and informs them that the power of song was never meant to be used to defeat the Evil Queen but to be placed in Emma’s heart for the power of song will help her win a major battle one day. The Blue Fairy tells them that Emma won't be alone.
