Jodi sounds very good, actually really impressed with the quality of the song. Sounds like something from Splash Hits! or the TV series.
It's funny at first, I didn't like Julie Nathenson's singing voice for Belle but the song has slowly grown on me. It's not my favorite song from the show and it is one of the weaker entries from this otherwise pretty good series but it is still pretty enjoyable. I do agree that Jodi hits it out of the park with "The Love We Share". So far though, I think the best princess song has been Cinderella's "True Sisters" from the pilot movie. Jennifer Hale did an amazing with such a great song.

Jodi is awesome! I love Ariel's song and the Floating Palace was incredible! Queen Emiline is one of my favorite characters now! I can't wait for the new episodes to start! I really hope we see more of Emiline and her girls! You're right about the Love We Share being Splash hits quality! I'm not sure when the new episodes are gonna start. I hope they start soon though. I can't wait for Mulan's!

Let her keep the pink!
The reason Aurora wears pink is to distinguish her from the other princesses that already wear blue or blue-ish outfits, like Cinderella.
Plus, the pink makes Aurora look more unique and stand out from the crowd better.

Here's something I was thinking. Not counting the princesses such as Mulan, that we know are going to appear on the show. With any future princesses appearances, what would like them to see teach Sofia?

It's funny moviefan12, when I first heard her speaking on the Disney theme park game as Belle, I was like "Noooooo this isn't Paige / Susan!!!" But since hearing her speak snatches of phrases Belle usually says, I think she really has got her spot on. Again, not so sure about singing, but might be a case of having to get used to it after such a long time of Susan and Paige.
I wonder if Jennifer Hale is now fully singing for Cinderella now, taking over from Tami Tappan Damiano ?

I think that is what it is too because the first time, I heard Julie's singing voice for Belle. My reaction was a bit over the top and I wanted to declare that as my least favorite episode.

Thanks, I'm quite the fan of Sofia. On my blog, I've got a few articles about her. I do agree that it'll take some getting used to but at least Belle had something to do unlike Aurora in the Christmas episode, who didn't even get a song. I mean, she is my least favorite princess but c'mon, every other princess got a song. Though the one appearance that confused me was Ariel's because she was a mermaid during The Floating Palace but I thought this show took place after the events of the films.

Hey! I'm Lauren. Welcome! I guess Ariel can change from a mermaid to a Human whenever she wants now. I was confused about that as well She also sounded younger as though it was supposed to be part of her TV Series. I would love to read your Sofia blog! What's the link? I hope you have a good time here! My favorite princess appearances so far are Ariel and Jasmine! It's probably because they're my two fave princesses! I'm also looking forward to Mulan's as well.

Oh no, it's a Disney blog. But I've done about 7 Sofia articles. I'll put a link down below. Cinderella has been my favorite princess appearance and I doubt that my favorite princess, Rapunzel will appear anytime soon but that'd be super awesome. Yeah, Ariel did sound younger but I think that they did that to differentiate Jodi's Ariel voice from that of Queen Emmaline as she also played the mermaid queen.

I've been thinking, out of the two major one shot characters, we've seen. Oona and Lucinda, who did you like more. At first, I' liked Lucinda more for her design and spunky nature and she was different then most of the other child characters, we'd seen on the show thus far but over time, Oona has grown on me and she is just adorable and it helps that I like mermaids.

I love Cora best out of the two mer-sisters. I want to get to know her better. I love her whole family-especially her mother! But Cora is definitely my fave! I like Lucinda too, but for different reasons. I hope we see more of all of them in future episodes. I can't wait for season 2 to start and the second soundtrack to come out! I already pre ordered it on ITunes!

Totally agree, so far the only character, I know of that is going to make a second appearance is Miss Nettle and I too have already pre-ordered Songs From Enchanica. And I can't wait to listen to the songs. I'd love to see Lucinda in the castle with Sofia and see her interact with Amber, Hildergard and Clio. And yeah, Cora is pretty cool.

Hey! I hope you're doing well. I would pay to see Lucinda interact with Amber! LOL! I like Amber a lot too! I just think it would be funny to see the two of them hang out and for Lucinda's magic to go haywire. I hope the second season starts soon! I'm only keeping about nine or ten of the songs from the new soundtrack. I hope they start releasing new songs on ITunes again once season 2 starts airing. I'm working on a Sofia the First fanfic that deals with her last few days in Merriway cove as well as takes her to Agrabah where Jasmine helps her out again and she returns the favor and actually goes on an adventure with Jas and Aladdin!

Your fanfic sounds fun and yeah, Lucinda and Amber would easily make for one of the funniest episodes.

On my Disney blog, I've been doing a week of Sofia blogs and I did one on the princesses that haven't been on the show and what they could teach Sofia. You can check it out, if you want, here's the article.

@ Thoix: I'd say so. I really enjoy it. It's a very cute and enjoyable little show about young Sofia, she's only 7 adjusting to life as a princess and learning what it takes. Her amulet has the power to bring all of the princesses to her in her time of need. So far, Cinderella, Jasmine, Belle, Ariel, and Aurora have all appeared on the show. Of course, I've had Sofia on my mind as I'm doing a Sofia Week on my blog, all this week. It's a cute little show that unlike other Disney Junior shows or kids shows isn't a Dora clone and instead just tells a story and lets the story play out naturally. It's worth checking out.
