    Considering how passionate Howard was about the song and considering how he directed Jodi Benson to perform the song the way he wanted it, this has even more meaning. Howard was a talent taken too soon.

    Howard Ashman's songs have affected me even before I learned he had passed away before I was born.

      What gets me the most is that whispered "One more time" just before she starts singing - she's telling the pianist to play the intro again because she's too emotional to start singing at that moment.
      I was always Mulan's girl growing up, but my favorite Disney voice actress is, and will always be, the absolute queen that is Jodi Benson. Her heart is so impossibly pure.

If only he were here to see the final version of Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, and the soon-to-be 30 Lion King, it would've been more magical to see his reactions to these three movies! Thank you for bringing these four movies(Little Mermaid, Beauty & The Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King) to life for millions of people around the world and many more generations to come! Thank you for bringing Ariel's voice to life, making Beauty and the Beast memorable, Aladdin a magical tale and funny at the same time, and also making The Lion King one of the BEST Disney movies the world has ever seen! (well I know Howard didn't work on The Lion King, but the four movies mentioned, especially The Lion King are what REALLY made them amazing)

    Did you know that Alan Menken made a mistake when composing this song? He wrote the end too close to Somewhere That's Green from Little Shop of Horrors. You can tell. "Out of the sea. Wish I could be. Part of that world." and "Far from Skid Row. I dream we'll go. Somewhere that's green." Just thought I'd share that fun fact.

    I wish Howard Ashman casted Olivia Newton John to voice Ariel from Disney’s The Little Mermaid because her role as Sandy from Grease and her role as Kira from Xanadu are similar to Ariel. Plus, Olivia Newton John’s voice sounds so more sweeter and smoother and able to get the Melody, rhythm, and harmony nailed whereas, when it comes to Jodi Benson’s voice, it sounded very intense, too stiff, and sings offpitch when it comes to the melody, rhythm, and harmony. Because of Olivia Newton John’s acting and singing roles that are like Ariel (like Sandy from Grease and Kira from Xanadu), she has a lot of acting and singing experience in film whenever it comes to roles like Ariel, whereas Jodi Benson was just new to acting back when she was offered the role of Ariel and she was typically an amateur. Therefore, Howard Ashman should have casted Olivia Newton John to play Ariel and make the melody, rhythm, and harmony of Part Of Your World in a Disco Pop style almost like Olivia Newton John’s Physical and Olivia Newton John’s Landslide. Therefore, it would have been appealing, lit, and awesome!

      Yeah, unfortunately that was smack dab in the middle of the epidemic. We lost so many EMTs because just dealing with the patients would be enough exposure to contract it which only exacerbated the problem.
      I forget if people can be born and symptomatic of it. Maybe
