Happens with names we are unfamiliar with. I myself tried to use Italian pronounciation to really get his name as accurate as possible.

Oh, so he pronounce his last name like that? Wow, I was actually close on that.

Wow, they really not good in naming Disney songs XD. Looks like they didn't have a childhood Razz (jk, outside a few I only know the Hungarian lyrics for most of these)

I am one of those Canadians who is always overly excited when a Canadian gets any kind of international recognition, so I was pretty stoked to find out that Mena is from Toronto!

Also I don't know what it is about the part in the middle of OJA where he's telling Jasmine they're gonna jump, but I find him particularly gorgeous there haha. His half-smile when he asks why she's repeating everything he says!

His "I grew up in an Egyptian household" excuse cracks me up every time Laughing "Rabunzel"

songs are even worse

related but Alan Menken not knowing his own songs is hilarious. we stan a legend Laughing


To be fair, he didn't do The Lion King or Frozen.

I couldn't finish the Feast of Fools lyric in the first video. In the second one I forgot "Daughters of Triton" and I forgot a couple in Frozen.

Nah, nothing harmful in appreciating someone (plus that smile is indeed very nice).

Agreed. There's definitely a good reason I like to describe him as Menamerizing. Wink


Those curls are going to be the death of me I swear.

Same. Also sometimes I think his hair has to be liminal space; like, your hands would get lost in it.
