The movie version of the Last Unicorn was glorious because it had Peter S. Beagle (the original author) writing the screen play. Other movies should learn from this. *nodnod*
And they'd better remake this while Christopher Lee is still alive to play King Haggard again!
I'm sorry to say this because I LOVE this movie, but her English voice is awful, awful, AWFUL. The German version is so much better and that is quite a little miracle because usually our stuff is tons worse, lol. I am confused because our version actually has English lyrics too, the singing is just a thousand times better.
When i was little this was one of my favorite movies :( And now im 15 and im watching this and i watched the whole movie like a week ago... nostaligia.. but now im a woman!!
@Tigerheartwarrior i watched it today the is why im doing this i use to watch it when i was little i told my stepmom about it and she said she had it so i watched it today when i was thinking about it XD
Don't kill me for this, but I think this movie could use a good update.
Yes, it's a classic and all that jazz. But the animation isn't that great, and the voice acting is a bit mediocre.
It's really dated. I wouldn't mind seeing a newer version with a cleaner, more streamlined art style, and having the voice actors return for a re-recording.
@Kari166 Honestly, if they were to remake this (and assuming it'd be quality) it'd be a big hit with little girls :[ But shhh, Hollywood is full of remake rape so I think it should wait until a competent studio comes along.
I heard another singing voice in place of Mias. i like hers better, its what I grew with and suits her better. More heartfelt. We can't all be perfect singers! And perhaps thats good for Lady Amalthea, now that shes a woman/human, she isn't "perfect" anymore...love it :) x
I love the song, it reminds me of how much of a little kid I was and what I am now, I'm only 12 but I've been through a lot. It makes me miss my 5 year-old innocence and imagination.
She's gorgeous as a human and she has a prince for a boyfriend, why is she mourning? D: I'd be ecstatic! Well, I guess she hates the menstrual cycles. XD
this clip made me wanna watch the film again, still got it on video from child hood, is such a lovely film, remember me and mum sitting watching it and sobbing our hearts out, only difference now im watching it on a 100 inch screen love it, thanks for posting
I like both versions of this song, but maybe this one a bit more, because Mia farrow makes Amalthea sound like she is so hurt and lost she may not hit the notes as well as America, but she has a very sweet, emotional voice.
I like this version better than the other one, because Mia Farrow just has a more natural sound, and it really has that sad, lost feeling sound that Amalthea has as she tries to remain in the unicorn state and not loose herself to mortality.
lol me and my friend hannah randomly started singing this in math class and the teacher was like: SHUT UP! BOTH OF YOU GO TO BUDDY ROOM! :P it was so fun and the whole class laughed non-stop for like five minutes! xD it was so crazy that day!
@Mitchellfw There's another version sang by another woman that's much, much nicer sounding than the one in the movie. I don't know where to find it, but it's out there. =P
it's on the official soundtrack, and personally I think it sounds terrible. the movie version is great because the person singing has an actual wavering to her voice like you would if you were sad or lost -- the "upgraded" version just sounds too artificial/kiddy by comparison.
I will admit that even now at 18, almost 19 years old this is still my absolute favorite movie, the art is lovely, the characters deep and enchanting, and the story has caught my heart for years, since when i first used to cry as a 1 year old at the tv when it was over, crying "REEEEEEWWWWWINNNNNDDDD!!!!!!" and although i dont scream at the tv, i still can watch it over and over :)
Im shure people wouldent have such a proplem (as wouldent I ) IF the song was a little bit lower (or she sang a little but lower. some of the higest notes... ouch.... they were a but over her vocal cords range. if they would have accepted that, Im shure there wouldent be people saying how horrid this song sound. I blame the composer. He/she knew it would be sang by some one who might not be a professional singer, and yet put those DAMN high notes there!
@Jadensamma, apparently, people also forget about vocal TEACHERS.
it's not about "adjusting" or "perfecting". Her voice actress clearly hasn't had any vocal training. If she did, this wouldn't sound as bad. (Not to mention, if this hadn't been created in the 80's, the music would've sounded better, too.)
Go listen to the OST version of this; it has an actually "trained" vocalist. I, however, prefer how it sounds in the movie, because really, nobody is a perfect singer when they're lost, confused, scared, and sad.
this song reminds me of myself.... i used to be so innocent and free, and now i feel like every thing has become bad since then... i just wish i could remember what i was like then so i could be more like that now
I LOVE this movie! And, though to some it sounds "bad" (I don't think so), the natural sound of her voice really brings out the emotion, the sorrow, in this song!
does anyone know the lyrics to the songs in this movie? my baby cousins keep trying to get me to sing the songs from it ever since i had them watch it. if you do please just send me a message.. many thanks =)
haha I'm looking at the comments, and most of them are saying that the voice is wonderful and how anyone who thinks otherwise is a moron (I agree), but I can't find the bad comments their responding too...
Funny thing about her voice...I always thought growing up that the more human she became, the better her voice got. I learned later that the last verse (the one combined with Lir's "That's All I've Got To Say" that isn't shown here) used a completely different voice actor. But still, I like the idea that becoming human gave Amalthea some things (like a human's voice) but took away others (like her immortality).
I hate to be an arrogant snob, but honestly, if you don't like her voice you either have never seen the movie or don't understand what's going on at this point of the story.
@KayneArcheron no. just ppl think that she should sing like hannah montanah or ke$ha. i think she sings beautifully. just some dont understand that this is a fairy tale from the 80's. that they think that now they sing good and back then they didnt
No, I think she could have conveyed the emotion without being so nasal. She has a good voice, but I don't think the song is in her key. She's trying too hard to hit some of the notes, and she's singing in too bright a tone. It isn't bad. It conveys the emotion. The choice of techniques is a little strange, but at least she sounded like she wanted to cry.
Man, I love this song... And I agree; her wavering and conflicted voice suits the mood PERFECTLY. It almost makes it more authentic and believable. But then again, I guess you'd have to have grown up with the movie and remember the context and emotions that go along with the scene in order to appreciate it.
Regardless; I will ALWAYS love this movie. So well done and such a good soundtrack.
Yes, it´s good! One of my favourite Szenes. I´m From Germanny, and there they have let the song how it is and they have Spoke the important sentences on German in the Backround! In German the original Voice of the song is much darker! I didn´t know, why!
This song is so beautiful. It's so sad and sweet. I love it!
The movie is a little odd... I will say that- it scared the crap out of me when I first saw it really... But it's still lovely! I wish animation could've stayed this raw and pure.
I love this movie but I really wish they would have gotten someone else to do the singing. Farrow isn't even a mediocre singer, she's just plain bad.
@ecarg51 and @TTINUPLOTR I Agree with the both of you so much. Music and animation like this is lost. Pure emotion and art has been lost. We are in an age of computers and technology taking over, and autotune and rap becoming what's popular and what is thought of as "talent." but this, this is like a dream, this is magic. And there is so little magic remaining, but only a few people still know what that magic is...
@mcladyollivah I completely agree, i used to go to the movies and walk out with a feeling of wonder because for 2 friggin hours i was lost in a world of magic and fantasy... we dont get that nowadays
The man who wrote this is not being paid by the movie company and is in DESPERATE NEED OF HELP! The company even refused him when he offered to take less money just so he could have a little something to help his family out with his dying mother's hospital bills. PLEASE CALL AND WRITE!
Of course it makes sense: she is singing about how she's supposed to be someone/something else and was on an important quest, but forgot ever since she turned into a human, even though she still knows in the back of her head.
@TheBestKindOfFailure She also understands better as a human with human emotions what else she was looking for back then in the forest. It wasn't just she was beginning to forget herself, she began to like having more ranged emotions than supressed like that of an immortal being.. She also found herself, as a human wanting a companion. Molly and Schmendric weren't quite her friends, they were just tag alongs to her until she was human and back again to a unicorn.
Sure Mia Farrow isn't the best singer ever, but there's something genuine about this performance. She's not some disney princess singing about birds and princes, she's singing about being a woman and it's a song about reflection. The fact that her singing skills are average suit the moment.
@IntelligentJewel Mia Farrow's unsteady voice suits the unsteady voice of the character, unprepared for her transition into womanhood. I'm sure there was much oo-ing and and ah-ing among the Ghibli bunch about whether or not to let Farrow sing this, due to the risk of people not getting it.
@IntelligentJewel It sounds realistic, and she has a very beautiful voice- but what I don't get is that 'that's all I've got to say' sounds completely different... it sounds like she's suddenly turned into a much more vocally trained singer :)

I just searched for the better version of this song its sung by Katie Irving she does a mutch better job at singing it and bringing across the emotions.Just type into the youtube search (Amalthea's Theme from The Last Unicorn) Now that I'm a Woman - Katie Irving hope i could help some of you ;)

Ugh, why is she so flat? I don't care what you people say, she's not a good singer, and that wobbling isn't emotion you hear, it's just an untrained singer.

The movie is a little odd... I will say that- it scared the crap out of me when I first saw it really... But it's still lovely! I wish animation could've stayed this raw and pure.

I love this movie but I really wish they would have gotten someone else to do the singing. Farrow isn't even a mediocre singer, she's just plain bad.

Every single time I hear this I get misty-eyed. It's much more powerful in context within the movie, rather than singled out, though.

@ecarg51 and @TTINUPLOTR I Agree with the both of you so much. Music and animation like this is lost. Pure emotion and art has been lost. We are in an age of computers and technology taking over, and autotune and rap becoming what's popular and what is thought of as "talent." but this, this is like a dream, this is magic. And there is so little magic remaining, but only a few people still know what that magic is...

@mcladyollivah I completely agree, i used to go to the movies and walk out with a feeling of wonder because for 2 friggin hours i was lost in a world of magic and fantasy... we dont get that nowadays

The animation is absolutely beautiful throughout, but I don't know about the voice acting... sometimes it seems better than other times

@lovelierlex Mia Farrow is the Unicorn, and as speaking voice goes, it works. I personally feels she cannot sing, but seems to work for the song.

I don't see how the lyrics don't make sense to anyone? They've always made sense to me, even when I was a little girl. :/

the melody of the song is good and the voice isnt so bad either but the lyrics really dont make sence. the movie is fantastic though.

Of course it makes sense: she is singing about how she's supposed to be someone/something else and was on an important quest, but forgot ever since she turned into a human, even though she still knows in the back of her head.

@TheBestKindOfFailure She also understands better as a human with human emotions what else she was looking for back then in the forest. It wasn't just she was beginning to forget herself, she began to like having more ranged emotions than supressed like that of an immortal being.. She also found herself, as a human wanting a companion. Molly and Schmendric weren't quite her friends, they were just tag alongs to her until she was human and back again to a unicorn.
The story goes really deep.

Sure Mia Farrow isn't the best singer ever, but there's something genuine about this performance. She's not some disney princess singing about birds and princes, she's singing about being a woman and it's a song about reflection. The fact that her singing skills are average suit the moment.

@IntelligentJewel Mia Farrow's unsteady voice suits the unsteady voice of the character, unprepared for her transition into womanhood. I'm sure there was much oo-ing and and ah-ing among the Ghibli bunch about whether or not to let Farrow sing this, due to the risk of people not getting it.
Elcore 1 year ago 10
@IntelligentJewel It sounds realistic, and she has a very beautiful voice- but what I don't get is that 'that's all I've got to say' sounds completely different... it sounds like she's suddenly turned into a much more vocally trained singer :)

I just searched for the better version of this song its sung by Katie Irving she does a mutch better job at singing it and bringing across the emotions.Just type into the youtube search (Amalthea's Theme from The Last Unicorn) Now that I'm a Woman - Katie Irving hope i could help some of you ;)

Ugh, why is she so flat? I don't care what you people say, she's not a good singer, and that wobbling isn't emotion you hear, it's just an untrained singer.
