[RoseWind2]

@nicolaschannel13, i totally agree!

[lilwayne20027]

[typicalnovice]

Beautiful!

[rachylelisabeth]

Gosh, her voice is so beautiful!



[iraqiprincess7]

wow shes soooooooooo good this singer, why isnt she more famous or made more songs???

[iraqiprincess7]

I LOVE THIS SONG MY FAVOURITE DISNEY SONG

[pbscraze]

Jodi also claimed that she NEVER gets tired of singing Ariel's signature song!

[ThatGirlOnYourMind]

I want her dress O_o

[pbscraze]

I'd say Jodi was around.....22 at the time THE LITTLE MERMAID was being created.

[pbscraze]

@pbscraze No waot. She was probably 27.

[swishkiss97]

someday i would love to sing for disney and make magic in millions of children's lives like jodi benson.

[zydnaay]

Its nice to see the who is behind that red head mermaid :) The Little Mermaid is what made absolutely looovve swimming and I'm now 19 :)

[zynnylove]

It amazes me how well she's taken care of her voice so she can morph back into that teenager voice for Ariel!

[TaleSpinTV1990]

@zynnylove She's done it for years

She's been in TV shows, toys, merchandise and reprised the role for Kingdom Hearts I and II and has even done two sequels

[zynnylove]

@TaleSpinTV1990 I knew some of that. But still, it is amazing how she's taken care of it and what not. Cos some people just, don't. A la Paige O'Hara from last I heard.

[TaleSpinTV1990]

@zynnylove IDK, O'Hara did an amazing job in Kingdom Hearts II

Maybe she alters her voice for Belle and at the D23 Expo she sung in her normal voice

It's just a theory

[TheTeaguin]

0_0 Holy fuck she is amazing.

[SamanthaDinae]

Love her

[tenten94]

if i shut my eyes i can see the movie. she should do the broadway show!

[helmimau]

en tiiä mikä on karisma englanniks mut mitä väliii. upea ääni ja valtava karisma, ei pysty oleen kattomatta:o ! upeaa<3:)

[x1thingx2005]

She's gonna be a Disney Legend This Friday !

[lovepiinkbaby]

[jackkiiieeex28]

[SamPandaaa]

My 3 Year Old... Said What That Ariel The Real Ariel..Then Says Mama She Just Has Her Voice.

[Pikminlinkfan23]

Jodi benson is my favorite ariel voice actress.

[poratitipuri]

WOW!!! AMAZING!!!

[entertainer1987]

Jodi will be named a Disney Legend next month. :)

[hippichic99]

These are the singers we should all appreciate-- the ones who can actually sing. 

[KidzNewz111]

i love her voice!?!

[genius15lee]

she is fantastic

[tamwaiman1981]

Her voice is a wonderful talent that impacts me a lot in the character of Ariel.

[JAVDCA]

:)



[VioletZun]

nth better than original

[BETHxoxo6]

@VioletZun

[VioletZun]

@BETHxoxo6 Yeah so this is the best. :)

[nicolaschannel13]

i love how she completely turns into ariel when she sings!!! she is so the best :)

[CBlitzEntertainment]

Beautiful

[MetallicSon]

woah



[DuffChic77]

20 Years later and she's stil the most amazing Little Mermaid ever<3

I wish I could have been there being enchanted by her singing. It just makes u feel as if you're actually under the sea when she sings it <3

[kurlykurlz614]

@ninamermaid: sorry about what she said. But then again dont let it get to you. People have different believes when it comes to this subject. And tell your friend not to be bump down. I am so happy to know that Ariel help her come out.. To me Been gay or lesbian is not an issued why? Because I am not god and I have no right to say anything about it.so tell her to just 4get about it :)

[MikeBorley]

Fantastic! With the great contribution both Jodi & Paige have given to the Disney Company for the last 25+ years, I'm surprised they both haven't yet been given Disney Legend Awards!

[M1N0RSTAR]

@ninamermaid

well i understand why should she would say that, many people don't really accept  bisexual because there are confusing people (no offense to your friend). But if she said that she "came out" as announcing she is a lesbian that's a whole different story.

[ninamermaid]

@M1N0RSTAR LOL actually its not very different at all..............and they arent confusing people. What makes you think you or anyone else can judge their way of life when it comes to their sexual orientation. Whether she was gay or bi doesnt matter, Jodi still disrespected her.

[M1N0RSTAR]

@ninamermaid well i know that it was a little harsh what Jodi said to your friend, but i am sticking to what i said before that it is probably about her being bisexual. trust me i know its because of that. plus TheFlash180 is right she is not homophobic.

[TheHannen]

want. I have an eighteen inch tongue and I can breathe through my ears...

[TheHannen]

want. I have an eighteen inch tongue and I can breathe through my ears...

[Riddler95]

Jodi's voice never changes.

[TokyoPranda]

She sounds so good live. D: Ariel is my favorite princess. <3

[ninamermaid]

She's a great singer but Ive lost quite a bit of respect for her after hearing what she said to a friend of mine!!! Still...she has a beautiful voice!!!

[bm91xx]

@ninamermaid what did she say? :o

[ninamermaid]

@bm91xx a friend of mine is bisexual and she told Jodi that the story of Ariel helped her "come out" and Jodi said that it was not 'gods' wish for her to be bi and she must repent to save her soul ahahahaaa unbloody believable! I almost choked when she told me what she had said 'cause it was so rude of her to say that!

[TheFlash180]

@ninamermaid I realy doubt Jodi is homophobic, considering Howard Ashman was gay, and she was very close to him. Visiting him when he was dying of AIDS, and performing in a tribute to him.

[ninamermaid]

@TheFlash180 No she is extremely religious and sees bisexual-ness and gay-ness as a sin. She probably didnt mind Howard because she respected him (or she never knew). Anyway, point is....she's homophobic because of her insane religious ideals.

[TheFlash180]

@ninamermaid She's done benifits for AIDS Releif. Worked Broaway, which is a very homosexual industry, and as said was very close to Ashman and his partner. She may not approve of it because of her relgion, but I realy doubt she is homophobic.

[christinacharisma]

Her voice is so beautiful.

Thanks for uploading :)

[LilAnAzx4]

i love u jodi u are my idol i love ariel and u too

[NarutoSasukeLegends]

Oh my god.. it's Ariel.. my favourite princess. Ahh, so beautiful

[tubxyoob]

[NickDCPA]

Good job...but sounded like Ariel TRYING to sound like Ariel....

[Aussiegirl265]

Wow she sounds so much younger when she sings.

[ClevverTv24]

wow that was absolutely beautiful :) luv her.

[danceaddict143]

I can acually close my eyes and see airel singing it!!! Yay jodi!!!

[timmysuzara]

@danceaddict143 You should be saying

I can actually close my eyes and see jodi singing

while watching the Part of your World by Ariel

[jetclntn]

She has passion for what she is singing. Her face and voice full of emotion and love.

[DukeFan1971]

very good jodi. you rock!

[muzafar001]

Wooow!!!!!!

[jodilovesdanecook]

my name's Jodi.. :)

[bluestuff27]

haha i realized towards the end of the song that i was mouthing all the words :) she really is an inspiration to so many little girls

[scarletmoonfall]

@bluestuff27 And big ones! ;D xx

[notforone]

WOW. Wow, wow wow.... she's still got it, just as perfect. <3

[InfinityAndBeeYond]

From 3:03 onwards and almost all the parts of this video... it's still the same. She still has that "mermaid" voice. I love you Jodi!

[princesstoadstooool]

i love jodi benson. i remember at the end of the little mermaid video, they would play a music video of jodi singing at the beach and i remember i was like 'oh my goodness! ariel is real!!!' :p <3

[xoxlithium]

I love how she sings this. She's amazing, you can hear the emotion she puts into it, like shes actually Ariel!

[gymnast08955]

that's crazy to see ariel's voice coming out of a human with legs.

[valthompson2004]

if you guys like her go search for traci hines she does disney princess impersonations shes amazing and beautiful!

[iLoveWhiteTrucks]

I remember, on my 7th birthday, the clown asked me who my favorite celebrity was. I said 'Jodi Benson'. He's like 'Who the hello is that?!' =))))) That was like 8 years ago. Haha!

[DisneyFanatic2364]

After twenty years, she's still got it!

[DisneyClassicsFan]

Gave me goosebumps:)

[heatherheath2010]

The Little Mermaid is my favorite movie of all time. I love hearing Ariels voice just because it makes me feel like the little girl who had on my little mermaid dress and shoes singing along with my Ariel barbie to the movie and wanting to marry Prince Eric. Best Disney Movie EVER.

[tsoegiarto]

i wish that my lovely alana would meet her someday....

[VanessaLuvMe11]

I LOVE LITTLE MERMAID! She is PRETTY! I LOVE HER EYES! I LOVE HER VOICE!!!!

[jackiehallam62]

In a few more years I'm gonna name my daughter after her.

[lexjoshlondon]

She sang for everyone singing for disney world in disney candlelight processional in December 2010 and she sounded better than in this video lol but she is still amazing :))). Love her! Ariel was my hero when I little. I would always sing this song haha...badly. When I got to meet her I thought I was going to faint!

[antonellaluzbustos]

she's amazing

[Dutchgirl2100]

i love how she sings "i want more " on 1:24

[AllegroConBrio67]

Thank you. That's an inspired singer.

[NDLady1985]

I love Jodi! She's one of my favorite voice actors of all-time.

[Megasanner]

goooosebumps!!!

[blackveilbride16]

@amears022 well duh ur gunna like it when "Ariel" sings cuz there's studios to fix any little problems. She sounds amazing for a live performance, especially after over 20 years

[nataliecat190]

woah after like 20 years she still sounds pretty much the same!

[derekscorp2]

How can anyone dislike this? She sounds amazing, even after all these years!

[cococola44]

Jodi i love you :) Always. your an epic legend and idol :D

[Annelua1]

Her voice is wonderful. Although I know that those characters don't talk by themselfes I kinda get sad when I hear someone else singing instead of them.

[amears022]

@Annelua1 me too lol. Or I at least hope they will be really pretty and look like the characters. She has a good voice but it's better when 'Ariel' is singing it

[TheGeorgiaProduction]

;O i cant believe shes ariel i want her voice :( im going to Steal it, im sure she wont mind its happen before hahaa :)

[TheGwynnSmith]

@TheGeorgiaProduction Ahahaha thats funny!!

[RainysAnime]

[Sueiza]

[mermaidstar7]

[RichMaxwell]

1:43 Sexiest Giggle EVER, omg.

[VioletLetter]

her crescendo at the end is so controlled. beautiful.

[ambambluebird]

I love this ladys voice, its just so beautiful. God Bless Jodi Benson

[YTheLadyButlerY]

Brought me to tears. Beautiful Benson, Very sneaky with your voice ;D

[peashylillycris]

[eymyboo]

[aton87]

[mrsjaydie]

[junozard]

[KingAaron19]

who the hell disliked this? Deaf fucks.

[nikkilb309]

really good :D

[malaysiaworldwhatsup]

i really love your voice especially the "aaaaa" part :)

[sabvilla]

The Little Mermaid came out the year I was born. And I will never be ashamed to say up to now that Disney had been an integral part of my childhood :)

[fullm00nz]

@sabvilla OMG me too I'm so proud

[Elpeciss1]

@sabvilla You'll find you're not alone. Many of us did :)

[bluepopcorn1234]

Amazing:)

[thinisha]

i dont think shes not amazing or kind, and im sure it could be her favorite, but singing it constantly.. is annoying it would annoy anyone,

[gr13340]

@thinisha not that classical sweet song

[trisrays]

@thinisha If you got a really good song to begin with, it becomes TIMELESS. Jodi's ballad Part of Your World is just that.

[thinisha]

lol she must get so sick of singing this song lol, its been like over 10 yrs people lol

[Cerberuswaltz]

@thinisha Not at all. She said Ariel is her favourite role that she has ever taken on. She's an amazing and kind woman, and she'll never get sick of it :)

[pbscraze]

@Cerberuswaltz That song will carry on in Jodi's heart for many years to come....

[sabvilla]

@thinisha 21 to be exact. LOL

[undertakerxkristaker]

BEST SONG EVER<3333

[clusterbeam]

Great voice!

[Aubey09]

the 21 ppl who disliked this arent part of the world.

[oldedrick]

@Aubey09 i am. this is my favorite in disney

[giggles1987]

@Aubey09 LOL indeed lol

[yukilisan]

omg luv her

[kbiggs1997]

i got the part of ariel and had to sing this song i really do love it xx

[mermaidamp]

Did U know that Jodi Benson is the same age as my uncle Joe?

[EllieTurnip]

@mermaidamp and how olds that? ;o

[mermaidamp]

Jodi Benson sings wonderfully. I had a photo with the character she voices in The Little Mermaid which is Ariel. John Lasseter said that she is very terrific. She voices the Barbie dolls in the Toy Story movies.

[ytfjordan]

Its's good, but it seems like she keeps slipping out of 'Ariel-girly-voice-mode' and into adult mode. Thats the only thing i ddnt like, she should have just did the song in her natural voice. I mean i know its been over 2 decades but c'mon.... : /

[mradons]

gives me goosebumps every time. even twenty years after i fist heard it.

[nikkix3lovesu]

she is still the best at singing this song!!!!

[Gizel78]

She does sound like she did back then...only when she sings, "Bright young women..." it sounds as though she says, "Bright chung women." Other than that annunciation problem, it was fantastic. ^^

[DaniNicoleJRE]

i saw her sing this live a week ago! she was amazing! i was like "OMG THATS ARIEL!!!!"

[GoodGirlGoneBad1700]

when she sings "i want more" her voice sounds so strong.its beautiful

[LottaAir]

how can anyone dislike this?

[Disneydanny]

dang 20 years and it looks and sounds like she hasn't aged one bit!

[tuliparbd]

i love this song! love her voice!

[stardust1394]

she looks nervous.....but she shouldnt be... she sounds AH-MAZING.

[Cerberuswaltz]

@stardust1394 Well, worrying about pleasing your fans- people who grew up and loves this movie (they aren't called Ariel-holics or Fin-atics for nothing) would worry some people sometimes.... I would imagine, but who knows?

[stardust1394]

@Cerberuswaltz good point she does have a reputation to live up to

[SmurfTwilight]

No one can sing this song like Jodi Benson. Pure magic. I wish I could meet her, and to sing with her would be out of this world :)

[iMaDeMoN2012]

I think she has a sexy voice. Maybe thats just because I grew up on Ariel.

[phoenixlatina]

i love how her dress is ocean themed and is mermaid-esque, :P

[abcvvn]

pure disney classic magic this song can bring you!

[RockerOfTheSocks]

shes going to be in toy story 3 xD

wen i found out i was like Awsum!!

she plays barbie xP

[kouriskiii]

i like lea salonga.

but jodi still is amazing.

[ginger505]

SHE'S ARIEL!!! :P x

[nudle19]

she's adorable! 

[agood029]

I'm 20 years old and I'm freaking out! I love Disney--- I remember watching this when I was little!

[mysteryx10]

I actually know her and her family. My brother in law is the pastor of there church

[candyflosskiller]

[Dashofdaisha]

The Little Mermaid has to be one of my favorite Disney Movies! Its Amazing that she still sounds so Awesome!!!!!! :)

[TheWannabeMarine]

[Taitaitiger]

[imwithstoopid1]

[alibabe143]

[bennettcullen]
