Like, going from Ariel for example. I know it was used in The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventures, but it was subsequently rerecorded for the various Princess CDs; the track is 'In Harmony' :

It's a wonderful song, celebrating individuality and how everyone can get along.

Compared to this, 'Manners & Etiquette' from the Princess Tea Party Album:

There are only a few years in between, but its just so … basic. I know I'm looking into this way too deep; but thats what the Princess are becoming - a generic, cookie cutter set of girls who are losing who they really are, and were created to be which is such a shame. You can see Ariel's personality in 'Harmony' - she's fun and silly and wants to celebrate everything about everyone, and we can all get along as we are supposed to be different. That, for me, is the same featured in the first film and the TV Series. The 'Manners' song could be any of the Princesses; there is nothing to show any personality from one or the other. When in the world did Ariel have a vast desire to 'hold her head errect' when she walked in to a room ? The Ariel I know would have ran or laughed in, and would have been her usual kind of goofy self …. not this uniformly 'I AM A PRINCESS' mantra.

Heck, even Jennifer Hale had to stop voicing Aurora as she was beginning to sound too similar to her Cinderella, as she said the girls would regularly say the exact same thing, and they were beginning to merge into one.

Again, I know I've gone too deep into this, but conclusion is that the Princesses should be given their personalities back - they are, from their original films, inspiring, strong, nature and animal loving, happy, charming people - I say, bring it back! Its what these characters deserve.

And it can only serve as inspiration for the next generation of girls and boys who will be looking up to these characters.

I agree it's a shame all the princesses are becoming a bland image of their former selves. I LOVE the song "In Harmony" It's cute and shows off Ariel's accepting, fun loving personality so well. The "Manners" song is so bland and out of character. It would have been better song for Aurora or Snow. This is another favorite Ariel song of mine:

I completely disagree. I think the princesses still have their personalities and are still themselves!
