"Settle For Me"

"Settle For Him"

"Don't Settle For Me" | **Reprises** are the continuation or furthering of an established song. Usually this is done with slightly different lyrics and arrangement but still recognizable as the original musical piece. They are used in a narrative as a callback to previous performances for comedic or dramatic purposes or a mixture of both. On Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, various songs have been reprised, some more than once. The first example of a reprise was in the Season One episode "Josh Just Happens to Live Here!".
