[quote="Robo4900"]Personally, I'd put Whole New World in last place. It's a great song, but I've always loved the others more. Friend Like Me's definitely my favourite, then Prince Ali and Arabian Nights are probably about even for second place. Though if we're counting cut songs, High Adventure takes the #2 spot.[/quote]

In 1992, the violinist plays the second line differently from the first, which I find more musical and romantic. In 2019, the line plays twice exactly the same. Also, I don't mind using horns instead of violin per se. Different=/=bad. But I think a solo horn player would have been tonally more appropriate than multiple horns playing together. Solo instruments are better at creating intimacy. It's also not the most emotive key for horns. <br /> <br />I do like that they play around with timing. The theme comes in as Al/Jas withdraw in 2019, as opposed to 1992 using it to build up to the kiss. Makes the moment more sweet-romantic than sweeping-romantic.

Everyone seems to be on the same page that it's meant to be a fun song so you can go as wild and crazy with it as you like, whereas everyone always takes liberties with the other songs that can be hit or miss depending on your interpretation (like AWNW as more of a slow intimate ballad between two people falling in love or one that's trying to capture the feeling of the initial rush of falling in love with someone for the first time). <br /> <br />Also, I won't take this "The Kiss" erasure on my watch.
