That’s fine I’m just a grown ass woman crying at 2am
you're not alone my girl! this touches the soul in an unimaginable way!! and the live version is out of this world but still part of our world!!!! the treasure trove is real!!
I'm sobbing. I do EVERYTIME I hear the song or even watch the beginning of the movie when the sailors and Eric sing "I tell you a tale of the bottomless blue ..." It came out when I was 8. Buying the movie on VHS was the first thing I can remember saving up my own money to buy bc I wanted it to truly be mine. I was an elite connective swimmer & synchronized swimmer for almost 2 decades. My dream was always to be a mermaid (& be able to breath underwater (in synchro you're often holding your breath while also propelling your legs above water - highly exerting yourself and making sure you know not just your routine but to do it in the exact way with the exact timing to the music and in perfect harmony 7 other athletes. Hardest sport ever! Ariel coming into my life just made me want to be her all the more). The Little Mermaid is still in my top 3 face films of all time along with Gone With The Wind and Pitch Perfect (I'm electic what can I say?) - But what I adore most about Jodi is how much she loves Ariel too! No one else in a sequel, prequel or even on television has EVER been the voice of Ariel (always on Disney movies made into tv shows - I could never watch them bc I could tell it - for example, the late great Robin Williams wasnt voicing the genie on tv! And I couldnt watch the recent specials bc the chick wasnt Jodie. She should've been her "alter ego" Ariel in that and everything even this unsolicet$ rendition of this song m: almost, However, now knowing she was there and sang this song ... I should have watched it! And she still is and will always be the one and only Princess Ariel.
Samantha Johnson it’s 2:06am right now and that’s me crying right now 😭
Same but it’s 2:30 AM during quarantine...
How dare you call me out like this
30 years later and she's still got it. Other women will sing this song beautifully, but there is only one Jodi Benson.
Or men 🧜💙
That shuddering breath she always takes after "out of the sea" makes me want to weep every single time.
When she sings “ ‘shore up abooooooove’ breathes ‘out of the sea’ “ part gets me every single time. I get overwhelmed with an emotion I don’t know why. LOL
It’s that deep yearning of a dream yet unfulfilled , and it slays 😭
Me too! I never know how to explain it but I thought it was just me thinking about that part!
Right you are
I believe it's the build up to this crescendo and the pause after that(pauses are very important in music) leading to a warm voice for the ending of the song. There are many moments like this in Disney songs, another reason why Alan Menken is a genius.
yellow suit piano man is also Princess ^^
I’m a 19 year old 6’4 football player.. and this put me in tears.
John Top i♥️ litter mermaid too. Especially, when Ariel is singing.
umm umm
@@Paramore_your_Decode ikr
I mean that’s sweet
But...
😑
nothing put me into tears and I'm 31
@@user.00423 but what lmao. It's sweet
6:34 someone said "get ready". This girl really knew what's about to hit them. lol
Oh gosh that's funny. But so so true. Guh
8:28 somebody expresses being blown away, by simply saying, “umm.”
I remember sitting in a piano bar in London last year and the pianist started playing this song and suddenly the entire bar was singing along. If you’re in your late 20s-30s, this song (and this movie) WERE your childhood. And I still miss Howard Ashman.
True. Absolutely mesmerizing song coming from childhood.
Absolutely!!!
Im 13 and its my childhood
If you were a girl... Maybe.
I liked it... But it definitely was not my childhood.
Not just 20s-30s I’m 44 years old the movie came out in 1989 I was 10 back then my parents took me out to the movie theater it’s impacted people who’s in their mid 40 now the most.
Jodi Benson's singing voice has stayed the same for 30 years.
It's amazing! Isn't it?
@@user-zw3df4qc6t Yes it is.
I want her voice it’s amazing
@@luisasalazar6603 That's a reference to The Little Mermaid.
She still has that raw emotion just buzzing out of her whole body and she’s just incredible
Her story about Howard at the beginning makes this particularly touching. As a huge musical theater fan and Disney geek this hit close to home
He's the one who gave the Mermaid her voice and the Beast his heart
Yeah, I watched a mini documentary about him a month ago on RUclips and I bawled my eyes out, so sad
@@gunungmerapiapi1933 i didnt cry until the very end when they played Ashman singing part of your world!!
She really took Howard's advice very well. 🥲
That one dislike was a person that meant to click the like button but they couldn't see from their tears.
5:58 the clap she does towards the roof, to Howard. Just brings me to tears
That reprise had me 😭😭😭..
Jodi just turned 60.. she lives a clean living lifestyle and as such she retained her beautiful voice..32 years after
Even 33 years later, Jodi Benson has still got it! Her voice is still so gorgeous.
the STORYTELLING here in Benson’s performance is sublime. bravo to all the original artists involved in creating this iconic Disney magic.
I still hear Ariel some certain parts sounds a bit more mature.
I honestly hear Ariel the whole time
My best friend is a die hard Little Mermaid fan and she almost cried when I showed this to her 😂
I feel like this how Ariel would’ve sounded if she sang her song in TLM2 since she and Benson aren’t as young anymore...but still beautiful!! (But then again, even when she was older, she played an even younger Ariel in Ariel’s Beginning!)
I’m almost 30 years old and this song makes me feel like a kid again. Jodi must be protected at all costs.
Jodi Benson will be so surprised when I'm still alive on this earth. I would like to thank my special hero Jodi Benson for singing this special song to me, and I never ever going forget her.
Linda Larkin, Jodi Benson, Paige O'Hara, and Irene Bedard is gotta see Amanda Ferguson performing The Climb by Miley Cyrus at a convention in Denver, Colorado. I can't wait for this.
don't mind me, just SOBBING 😭
Howard gave her impossible yet perfect directions which she executed perfectly! What gems!
Goosebumps every time I hear this... ❤ wish I had a voice to sing along! ❤❤❤
That long note is the key to this whole song, when singers hold that long "Love to explore that shore up abooooovvveeee..." where you feel that they're longing for a place they could never be in.
What makes me cry the most is the backstory of Jodi and Howard. The very special relationship they had and the direction he gave her she never forgot. Jodi gave Ariel her voice but Howard is the soul of Ariel. The whole little mermaid story is really about Howard's life being a gay man and wanting so much to be loved and accepted in this world. I love Howard and the musical gifts he gave us all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Well, speaking of gay acceptance, the original little mermaid is actually inspired by Hans Andersen's experience of his devastating unrequited love for another man who was straight.
@@but_iWantedTo_speakGerman please stop trolling
@@but_iWantedTo_speakGerman ok troll
That GD reprise gets me EVERY 👏 DAMN 👏 TIME!!!👏 😭😭😭
Looooooove Jodi Benson!!! She has AMAZING control of her voice!!! She did Ariel such AMAZING JUSTICE!!! Thank you Jodi for bringing such an AMAZING Disney princess to life!!!! I fell in love with your voice as a child when I first saw The Little Mermaid in theaters and here I am nearly 40 years old I still am in such awe of how AMAZING you still sing!!!! Hands down one of the best voices on the planet!!!! Thank God for you!!!! And thank you Disney for selecting Jodi as Ariel’s voice!!!! Much love and support from FL!!!! Your voice still gives me good bumps!!!!
I almost cry on this song by Jodi Benson because she is always singing very beautifully, and the reprise is always describes how she and I be always together by at my side too. Thank you Jodi Benson.
It's most beautiful song that Jodi Benson sang to me.
Anyone can sing this song but only Jodi can deliver and sing it the way she can Ariel.
There can be no other Ariel like Jodi. Iconic….magnificent. 💖💖
Absolutely irreplaceable
the believability of her performance is just out of this world. I was hanging on to her every word.
JODI IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE VOICE ACTRESSES, every time she sings all I hear is Ariel
Same
It’s so good to see you, and hear you bring Life to a song that has touched Millions of us around the World.
Thank You! Keep on singing your song!
And Yes, there’s Only one Jody Benson.
We Love you-the Original Ariel!
"That is the most beautiful intro." - Jodi Benson.
I couldn't agree more. It's also the first time ever I've heard anyone say that out loud, except for myself. As much as I absolutely adore the song Part of your World; and to no detriment of the song itself; there's just something about that Reprise that makes time stop for me, makes me seemingly hold my breath for the entire duration of the number until the very last note. I'm sure there's a whole lot of nostalgia involved here and I can't possibly be objective, but those lyrics, that melody, the whole orchestral arrangement, the intro and especially the instrumental interlude between the two segments of the Reprise is just breathtakingly beautiful.
Howard Ashman and Alan Menken created something immortal.
P.S. Part of the Reprise's interlude is not present in this performance, but listen to the original soundtrack and you'll know what I mean.
I'm not bawling, you are! Jodi... You are the GOAT. 🧜🏻♀️🐚🦐✨
Literally just got done watching the movie, about 5 minutes before this was uploaded. She still sounds the same as she did back then, maybe a slight hint of age, but thats how we are. Thanks!
I like the fact that she has a slight hinge of age. I don't know why though.

Jodi Benson will ALWAYS be a goddess. Her and Ariel encouraged my love of music as a little girl, and I'll always be so grateful for that! 😭♥️
Me too!
*sounds like matured Ariel is singing omg imma cry 😭*
Jodi Benson is a fricken gem!!!!
Jodi's a national treasure
Jodi Benson is literally perfect! Look at all those people hugging her at the end- that is Disney Princess magic! 🧜♀️
Oh my goodness! And that REPRISE!!!!! And Benji, your playing makes it MAGICAL!!!!!
I was always puzzled why this song wasn't nominated for the Academy Awards when Under the Sea (winner) and Kiss the Girl were.
Originally it didn't set well with test audiences because, well, kids, and they were going to take it out.😢
Part of Your World is life 😊❤
Girl. I am not(yes I totally am) hysterical crying rn. This song puts me in another dimension. 😭😭🥹🥹🥹
She nailed that reprise !
so much better than the new live action little mermaid. jodi has such a strong voice
halle sounds better lol
@@AppIeOfficial you're delusional
Both of them sound AMAZING! of course they both have different voices but both are equally good. Don’t compare two women that have incredible voices.
Jodi will always be the classic version but Halle Bailey’s vocals are better than this. Way better. Bailey owns the reprise all together. Her version is MUCH better.
I get shivers listening to this! Jodi Benson (along with the other VO actors/artists) were made for their roles. Jodi's voice is still so pure and epic!
She's just the sweetest and her voice is beautiful
If this was your favorite disney song growing up then you had the best childhood
Jodi is the best! Her voice is magical! This song is my childhood!
I came for the reprise and I wasn't disappointed 😭😍
It’s 12:26am and I’m here again listening to one of the voices of my childhood ☺️ And what makes this even more amazing, is that every time she sings this song, I can just close my eyes and know it’s Ariel. Thank you Jodi Benson for being part of our world ❤️❤️
SHES THE DISNEY QUEEN💕✨
that tidbit about what Howard was telling her is such a special thing to know. He directed her beautifully and she took the direction and together they crafted perfection that will never be matched.
Jodi Benson singing voice sounds like amazing, beautiful for 30 years. Wow.
Halle got it!! She ate and I love Jodi🥲 ILL NEVER GET TIRED OF HEARING YOU BIG BENSON
I was 4 when this amazing movie came out. This is the first movie I ever went to the theatre to see, and I still cry everytime I hear her sing this 😩🫶🏻🧜🏻♀️
nobody else will ever compare :)
I was at the San Francisco BPP in June and would have absolutely dissolved on the floor if I got to see Jodi Benson. I love her! How special that she performed the reprise for the first time in 25 years
I’ve long outgrown the whole Disney “magic” thing you hear so much about. But this woman’s voice! This song! Brings tears to my jaded, almost 40 year old eyes!
Happy B-day Jodi Benson. UR beautiful. I love The Little Mermaid. I seen it all the time, on Disney channel! The Little Mermaid 1 & 2 Return to the Sea is romantic and amazing. Ralph Breaks The Internet is great. A Bug's Life, Lady And The Tramp 2 Scamp's Adventure, Enchanted, Toy Story 2 and 3 r awesome. Disney movies r great. The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy and Camp Lazlo r great shows. New New The Little Mermaid is beautiful. Love u Ariel. May the Peace be with u Ariel, Blue Fairy, Rich Mom, Patsy Smiles, Barbie, Jenna, Lady and Atta. From Harlingen Texas. October 10, 1961

Jodi Benson is just amazing, she still sounds the same as she did back in the day and I love it
We're really close to celebrating 30 years of the release of The Little Mermaid! I absolutely love this song. Tears start welling in my eyes the minute she started her monologue. And like Benjamin and so many others, I've watched that RUclips video too multiple times and always brings me so much joy.
My favorite song from the little mermaid
I've cried over three songs in my life, and this is number three
When she starts the reprise it gripped my soul so tight all I could do is well up with tears and the world fell away.
WOW 😍😍😍
She is amazing along with her character Princess Ariel .
Belle , Ariel , Mulan, Rapunzel, Elsa and Moana makes Disney Princess franchise special and very popular royal heroines 💙👑🌸
she is just a treasure :)
OMG I HAVE CHILLS ALL OVER MY BODY! There is something so special about Jodi Bensons voice. I don’t know if it’s the way her vibrato is or how her expressions are when she sings but it’s just magical!
Crying😭😭😭
Jodi Benson
She's still got it! Lovely Jodi!!
That's a beautiful performance
puts tears in my eyes every time
How Beautiful!!!!🎉🙏🏽🎶👍🏽❤️💕
This is my childhood she is my Ariel forever ❤️
I definitely need this in my life #bringthepartytolondon
This was the very first movie I saw in theaters when I was only two weeks old. I’ll never forget it as long as I live. My aunt Jackie, may she Rest In Peace, was the one who took me to see it.
Imagine your mother being Ariel and singing to you before bed as a little girl 😭
This is amazing! She sounds wonderful, just like she did in the movie!
Oh that reprise, i just couldn't help but cry. HUHUHUHU I STILL FEEL ARIEL EVEN IF I'M ALMOST 30! GOSH, I love you Jodi!
Sierra is undeniably amazing ... but this song just slaps so much harder whenever Jodi sings it
Imagine a real live Disney princess being your mom seeing your to sleep every night 😂❤😊
I feel like she loves getting to sing this song she is happy but also she does make u feel so sad too like u feel aril sadness. And its is what we are to feel sad for aril her want to see the world and that her dad won't let her . ❤
As much Jodi’s version moves my soul, I would love to hear an Ethel Merman version for the lulz 😆
Omg that reprise.
I’m not crying. You’re crying 😭
Her voice brings me back to my childhood 😢😢😢😢😢😢 🐬🐋🐠🐡🦀🌊
Benjamin, Thank You! That’s the most Beautiful performance I’ve ever seen of “Part of Your World!
