Congratulations to "Part of <strike>Your</strike>That World"!!!!!!!

[TheSequelOfDisney]

Part of Your World (and its Reprise) are some of my favorite songs ever, so I'm very happy that it won!

[Dr Frankenollie]

Congratulations to "Part of Your World"! I'm quite pleased it won.

[Lazario]

"Poor Unfortunate Souls" was far superior and everyone knows it.

[Dr Frankenollie]

"Poor Unfortunate Souls" was far superior and everyone knows it.

Well, I clearly don't...

[Lazario]

Yeah you do.

[Dr Frankenollie]

Bullshit. Part of Your World is superior. Lyrically, both are equally phenomenal, and Pat Carroll and Jodi Benson both sing their hearts out. However, Part of Your World is slightly better because it develops Ariel's character. Poor Unfortunate Souls simply moves the plot forward (but in an unforgettable, hugely entertaining way) and is nowhere near as touching or powerful.

[Disney's Divinity]

Personally, I would put “Part of That World,” “Poor Unfortunate Souls,” “Under the Sea,” “Be Our Guest,” “Beauty and the Beast,” and “Belle” (and maybe “The Mob Song”) all in the highest tier.

I agree that “Poor Unfortunate Souls” is the best (and it is powerful), and “UTS” and “BOG” both have amazing wordplay that “PoTW” does not. That said, I believe “Part of That World” has such sincerity and simplicity in both the lyrics and Benson’s performance that it embodies the character flawlessly--fulfilling the song’s purpose as much as, if not more than, needed. I don’t believe any “I Want” song has ever been done so well by Disney. (Although I would also say no villain song has been done so well as “Poor Unfortunate Souls,” too…)

Point--I find them both amazing, so it doesn’t bother me.

[Lazario]

Divinity:
1) I really think it's called "Part of Your World," not "That" world. Check Wikipedia. Check Amazon.com. How did you get to believe that it's called "That" world? Is it on the CD?

2) This is me, of course, but fuck "The Mob Song."
