So did Sadie Sink’s performance in the 4th episode “Dear Billy.” Some fans edited her music choice from Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill (Deal with God)” to Taylor Swift’s 10-minute version of “All Too Well,” since Sink starred in Swift’s short film for the song.

Comparisons were not only made between the emotional performances of Sink in “Dear Billy” and “All Too Well” the short film. Many pop cultural hot topics have been tied into the premiere of “Stranger Things 4,” like Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) in the recent ‘Dr. Strange’ sequel, “Heartstopper” and even the latest Harry Styles album “Harry’s House.”
