''Part of Your World'' is Alan Menken's best Disney song, followed by ''Colors of the Wind'', ''I See the Light'', ''A Whole New World'' and ''Beauty and the Beast''.
Are you literally gonna forget about Howard? The man besides him is the true disney legend. Mad respect for Howard! Disney always had "I want" songs since Snow White but only after The Little Mermaid and "Part of Your World" that it has been the formula ever since, thanks to Howard Ashman. The little mermaid, beauty and the beast and Aladdin's songs was written by Howard Ashman. Alan Menken is the one who composed the music. It's a shame that just few of disney fans that recognized and talked about him. He was literally the reason why disney is still exist now. Howard Ashman is a legendary lyricist who made Disney rises from its downfall and started the renaissance era of Disney, who recently returned from his huge career in musical broadway theater world that time. He is the one who directing Jodi Benson to sing Part of Your World. We all know that the original Part of Your World will always be the best "I Want" song in the entire disney universe. Not just because the nostalgia vibe but also Jodi Benson was really well and carefully directed by Howard Ashman, that even her breaths, stress and pause on each syllable are really well and gently cared for. When he directed Jodi, he always said "don't focus to the song, now you're telling a story". Howard wasn't focusing of the song and what makes the song sounds good or what makes it a song but how it tells a story. That's why there are many imperfections in the song, because it's the main part of it. An important part of maintaining that type of reserved passion is also that Part of Your World does not change key. In the worlds of pop music and musical theater finishing off with a key change is a helpful tool for bringing songs to a heightened emotional level and when covering Part of Your World, some people have done exactly that but I don't really think that a key change is necessary because that wasn't the intent of the songwriters. Howard said that intensity is better than enormous in this song. Howard said that intensity is better than enormous in this song. In fact I think that's staying in the same key the whole time is what makes it work so well having it push and pull and eventually bring Ariel back down to where she started tells a story effectively it even ends with the same motif it began with showing the audience the life that she wants but then going back to the life that she has. You can know that Howard Ashman was a great lyricist that he can even tell a story from a song. He also made the song dynamically switching from singing to talking and vice versa but the transition between them is still unnoticeable. And it didn't happen once, literally he directed every songs in those 3 films. If you really search on youtube, there are many videos that show behind the scene of the songs making. Like in beauty and the beast, he directed Paige O'Hara the same way too. Just search "Howard Ashman demo" on youtube, you can see how may songs he sung really containts much emotion than current disney songs. Also this is how Jodi's said to him ruclips.net/video/itaEZeJoqK0/видео.html Hard to believe that this beautiful song, Part of Your World, was almost cut from the movie. Jeffrey Katzenberg hated it and thought that it not only slowed down the movie but was boring. Howard fought hard to convince Katzenberg that this song belonged in the movie. And I'm glad he did. Disney renaissance is mostly known by their songs. Before the little mermaid project, Howard gathered the whole disney crew for a meeting. He tell about broadway history to all the crew and they all were impressed at him. Fun fact: Howard did much more than write the songs on this movie, he also brought on board Jodi Benson, directed her during this song, changed an English butler crab named Clarence to be a Jamaican crab named Sebastian, wrote the dialog in the scene where Triton gives Ariel her legs, and also produced the movie with John Musker. After The Little Mermaid released and became a biggest success in box office, Howard Ashman and Alan Menken was going to make movie called Aladdin. They've come up with several of ideas and musical numbers but Jeffrey Katzenberg then dragging them to a new project, Beauty and The Beast. Unfortunately, Ashman passed away 6 month before beauty and the beast was released and that movie was dedicated to him that even in the credit scene you can see that they gaved him credit to honor him because of how important he was. After beauty and the beast released, Jeffrey then took away all of Ashman's idea and script, almost 99% of them. But sadly some of the songs were removed in the final film He is the one who bring the new element broadway musical to the movie. This is the bright spot where everyone started to watching to animated movies again, previously no one was at all interested in animated movies. That's why every single disney movie now has a song in it. Disney keep using this formula until now (but not as effective as in the renaissance) because it's Howard's legacy. You can tell how they respect Ashman that even in Beauty and The Beast credit scene, there's a statement to honor him "To our friend, Howard, who gave a mermaid her voice and a beast his soul, we will be forever grateful." Howard Ashman 1950-1991 No wonder why The Little Mermaid be the first disney animated classic who get an oscar nomination. Also Beauty and the Beast is Disney's 30th animated motion picture, a dedication to Howard Ashman before he had passed away and the only classic movie to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature and Best Picture. He was the one who brought “I Want” song to another level! I Want song is literally every disney movies now. "In almost every musical ever written... the leading lady usually sits down on something... and sings about what she wants in life, and the audience falls in love with her and roots for her to get for the rest of the night." - Howard Ashman. He and his partner, Alan Menken, is the greatest duo that anyone have ever recognized in animated movie history. Also gain respect to Alan Menken, The little mermaid is actually his first score yet he can bring the magic with that scores. You can said that Part of Your World orchestra in the opening scene is the best choir you have ever seen and heard. Have you ever heard about the quote "There are three kinds of pianists: Jewish pianists, homosexual pianists, and bad pianists." -Vladimir Horowitz That quote actually referring to Ashman because he was Jewish and gay but still doesnt changed the fact that he really put his care and love the the movies It's hard not to hear the parallels to his own life. To be a gay man in that day and age (and to be literally dying of AIDS) and to wrestle with that kind of longing, that kind of loneliness, that kind of confusion, that kind of self-hatred... The message comes loud and clear even when it's not sung by a mermaid. Tremendous achievement, brilliant man. RIP. I can't imagine how much more greater and better Disney would have been doing today if this great man was still alive. It hurts to actually wonder.

Wish there wasn’t such a huge distance between me and my crush. He lives in a different country and I almost feel like Ariel, because it’s another world for me. They say distance is just a number - that’s not true. It’s a lot harder than you think. So if you have someone you love close to you, please, show them your love as often as it’s possible. You have no idea how gifted you are to be with them face to face, hear their laugh, spend time with them or hug them. Appreciate it.
Well, we always forget that in Ariel's time, the outside world really was a fairytale world :3 You know, medieval times? (I know what you're going to say: that the medieval times were just as bad and etc etc, but we're looking at Disney's medieval times, not ours :3)

Forget everything you know about the Little Mermaid. Now, imagine this: A woman, bleeding to death, is held in her lover's arms as she slowly fades further into an eternal sleep. Her lover won't let her go, saying "We still have to have our happily ever after." She starts singing. Now press play. During the instrumental, she dies. The last words are from her lover, promising their beloved that one day they will meet again to have their happily ever after. The end. This ain't about no mermaid.
....The Little Mermaid is about a girl being in love with a guy she cant be with because shes a mermaid and shes human. She wants to be part of his world, aka a human. I'm confused how thats not unrequited love....?
My favorite Disney princess, absolutely! So sad that Disney has gone Woke and ruined everything! I pray they straighten up and go to good hearted movies like this.
I sometimes love the reprises of these songs more than the original songs. :)
Years later, still gives me chills!
0:53 to 1:15 is such a magical instrumental. I feel something when I hear it.
''Part of Your World'' is Alan Menken's best Disney song, followed by ''Colors of the Wind'', ''I See the Light'', ''A Whole New World'' and ''Beauty and the Beast''.
He originally wanted to cut the song from the film, but said afterwards that he was glad that no one listened to him!
@@Inkyminkyzizwoz Jeffrey Katzenberg was the one who wanted to cut the song.
Are you forgetting "Kiss the Girl"?!
Are you literally gonna forget about Howard?
