Hmmm... I think Liz Callaway did that before in Merrily We Roll Along, and especially Baby, and to that point I bet there was someone even before Liz with that ultra-bright, focused, American sound.

It’s a beautiful song, and her voice is lovely. I am pretty sure that I first heard this performed at the Kennedy Center, but then never heard another word about Smile or this song. I love it.
"In every musical ever written, the leading sits down on something, sings about what she wants, and the audience falls in love with her for the rest of the night" - Howard Ashman.
She change my whole life around because Jodi Benson is really calling out to me, and my parents never ever been to Disneyland California Adventure, or even to Walt Disney World Resort before.
Thanks for posting. I had never heard of this show until my daughter wanted to sing this for a vocal competition. Looking ing forward to hearing my girl sing this!
IIIIIIIIIII'VE BEEN TRYYYING TO FIND STUFF FROM JODI BENSON'S BROADWAY DAYS FOR AAAAGES. Oh my goodness. This is. . .this is WONDERFUL. LET ME HUG YOU, LET ME HUG YOU NOOOW!
@@WizardOfHumor1989 If SMILE 😊😃😀 The Musical 🎤🎵🎶 happened as a movie 🎥🍿 who would you want in your dream 🛌😴💭 cast and do also have a new plot, songs and characters
Jodi B. sure can sing. Only saw her on stage once, as Nellie Forbush in SP, which wasn't great casting. The best version of this song I've heard yet is from the "Howard Sings Ashman" recording, w. Ashman and Hamlisch playing & singing all the parts, to solo piano (don't know if Marvin H. is playing). That one has some musical details that really make the song, & no other version includes them. Don't know why they wouldn't keep them in the orchestration. A shame.
Is this supposed to be a funny or sentimental song? Cuz I find it hilarious! I'd totally play it up and seem like a crazed fan. Haha! I can't believe I've never heard of this song! It's basically y theme song! "I will live in, Disneyland!"! Haha!
@@ChicHulaGirl86 If SMILE 😊😃😀 The Musical 🎤🎵🎶 happened as a movie 🎥🍿 who would you want in your dream 🛌😴💭 cast and do also have a new plot, songs and characters
I think it’s both!!!! It’s in the vein of “Somewhere That’s Green” or of course, “Part of Your World”! Where it’s almost silly that she’s idolizing this place, but her motives are so sincere and beautiful that you can’t help but love and root for her 💖
Oops--To be accurate: Just remembered I also saw Ms. Benson as Marian in THE MUSIC MAN. Good production. She was OK; good singing but just not so great w. the acting, as w. SP. I like her fine on the CRAZY FOR YOU OBCR, but am glad I saw Karen Ziemba in the role. She had such charm & sparkle, & was fantastic in the dancing. From what I've seen, Jodi just doesn't have that spark that makes a star. To be fair, others say the same about Karen Z., who I think has it in spades. Differing tastes...
She got to Disneyland and stayed.
She changed history. After this and Mermaid, every musical theater girl in America wanted to sound like her. High belt, razor focus, emotion.
Yes
Hmmm... I think Liz Callaway did that before in Merrily We Roll Along, and especially Baby, and to that point I bet there was someone even before Liz with that ultra-bright, focused, American sound.

@@jadehedglin1430 that’s amazing
@@hennessygarciahg thanks 🙏 which ones ☝️ were your favorites
Jodi Benson is a magnificent today in 2023 as she was in 1986!!
This was her ticket to becoming part of Disney’s world!
It’s a beautiful song, and her voice is lovely. I am pretty sure that I first heard this performed at the Kennedy Center, but then never heard another word about Smile or this song. I love it.
"In every musical ever written, the leading sits down on something, sings about what she wants, and the audience falls in love with her for the rest of the night" - Howard Ashman.
She change my whole life around because Jodi Benson is really calling out to me, and my parents never ever been to Disneyland California Adventure, or even to Walt Disney World Resort before.
This led to Jodi Benson becoming part of Disney forever
To think that just a few months later Howard and Jodi both went to Disney, and stayed there for the rest of their lives.
Thanks for posting. I had never heard of this show until my daughter wanted to sing this for a vocal competition. Looking ing forward to hearing my girl sing this!
Has there been a voice more beautiful than that?
Three years before she became Ariel.
Eeyup!
She. Is. Fierce!
This song is too ironical!! She really found her disneyland!!
Not ironic. Prophetic.
Don't forget Howard too.
IIIIIIIIIII'VE BEEN TRYYYING TO FIND STUFF FROM JODI BENSON'S BROADWAY DAYS FOR AAAAGES. Oh my goodness. This is. . .this is WONDERFUL. LET ME HUG YOU, LET ME HUG YOU NOOOW!
Alisa she has a huggable voice!

good show!
And that's how it's done!
Love this so much

3:00 And they did!
Amen to that. Love me some Jodi B.
Thank you for posting this!
OMG I WANTED TO SEE THIS FOR YEARSSSSS THANK YOUUUUUUUUU
Perfect
This is amazing! I can't stop watching it! Where did you get a video of her performing this song?! I feel like this is like, super rare!
Is there a smile bootleg floating around?!?
Was this her audition piece when she was called to play Ariel all those years ago? This will definitely be mine if I audition for Disney.
Could you please post more of the footage from this show?
Any other songs/scenes from this show?
Upload the full musical Smile
Did you film the full musical
If so can you upload it for me
Why would you watch this then?
Is this supposed to be a funny or sentimental song? Cuz I find it hilarious! I'd totally play it up and seem like a crazed fan. Haha! I can't believe I've never heard of this song! It's basically y theme song! "I will live in, Disneyland!"! Haha!
Ok, I wasn't sure. Thanks!
