      However, I truly believe that if taking "childhood" and "originality" away... Halle's version brings more connection to the song and really make you believe she is really feeling what she is singing.

    The people saying the words to the song in the back made me smile so much. Saying “Feet” and “Street” ... what made me simile more is ... they were adults! They were probably young children when the movie came out and couldn’t help but finish the song with Jodi ... it made them feel like children again :)

    my grandma (on my mom's mom) used to love it when my cousins and I would sing this song to her. We were so shy when we were young so it was like pulling teeth to get us to do it! Years later, she started getting pretty sick. She knew she didn't have long, so she made a trip out to see me and my family (we got as much family on my mom's side as possible to come out too. they live in B.C. and Manitoba. we live in Saskatchewan.) And we went out to our local bar, drank, and sang karaoke. We sang this song for her on the way home from the bar, lol. It was a happy, wonderful memory that I will always treasure and I have a feeling she did too. With that in mind, this song always made my eyes sting with a bit of happy tears, even though it's been a few years now since she passed. Love and miss you always, Grandma.

This character changed my life for the better in that I loved her voice. I literally *CARED* for this character. Everytime I took a bath she was with me. Anytime i went to the pool she was with me swimming with Flounder. If she had red hair she would be the embodiment of my childhood. I love her smile, it looks just like Ariel's. What a jump to 21 years ago when I was 6. Thank you so much for uploading this. I'm eternally grateful.
