  • This is when I remember why I love this movie so much. :)

  • Is Alladin Asian?

  • @mel842010

    try pursian  arabian knight

  • @mel842010 no

  • This was exquisitely done!

  • i love the original version of Lea Salonga's voice better........

    she was younger than....... so her voice sounds younger too......

    and the bet of all......... i can imitate that voice.......... but sadly..... not this one :(

    LOVE YOU LEA SALONGA!!!

  • brad is so cute.......i think i'm in love....

  • it's funny cause brad actually looks like aladdin (:

  • Lea and Brad sound great, but the back up singers were really off key.

  • I Love this Movie and it's one of my fave songs.

  • I love this performance soooo much!

  • Lea just transports one to a totally New World

  • Both have amazing voices and Brad is a total hottie.

  • @ElizabethC1988  yep

  • lea made me proud as a FILIPINO

  • i think there's alittle too much going on on the screen at one time, most of the dancers should have left when Lea and Brad entered

  • i am madly jealous of her cuz she has an amazing voice

  • Is the style of dance in this performance Persian dancing or bellydancing?

  • @jingjingguo

    persia was the name of the empire a few hundred years ago(persian empire) which was all of the middle east, parts of africa, some of easten and western asia and a bit of southern russia. belly dancing comes from the middle east so yes, it is persian dancing( there are many different types of dance styles, and belly-dancing is just one)

  • AMAZING.

  • the best!

  • wow.... they should have done it like the original....

  • Man, I love this. :)

  • whats with all the walking????

  • @hrmsugoi0809 i know how can you say (in the song) "on a magic carpet ride" with no magic carpet?

  • @saidie02086656791 You didn't watch all the way to the end did you? They end on a magic carpet.

  • they need a broadway show of this movie

  • @musicqueen626 I know right! Well at Disney Cali. Adventure they have a musical live show of Aladdin. It's preety cool. look it up.

  • @musicqueen626 it just debuted at the 5th avenue theater in seattle. i saw it, it was beyond amazing. now i think they are waiting to decide if they will take it on tour or to broadway or anything

  • They are so cute together!!

  • Lovely...really like it..haha i'm always listening into it..

    anyone who know where to get the instrumental of this version pls sent me a mssge...tnx =)

  • wow...amazing! i really love this song...

  • I love Leah and Brad.But I dont think the female dancers in blue are wearing arabian costume.It looks like the national costume of India.Correct me if I'm wrong;-)

  • stupid production design and musical arrangement. too much. cant appreciate the simplicity of the song.

  • no way would this have been staged at the oscars in a post-9-11 world..

  • I always wanted to follow her footsteps and be a Disney Singer. Filo pride baby! LoL

  • It sucks that this is the only time they sang it live together. I would love to see them sing it again. That would be amazing.

  • there voices are so amazing!

  • they look good together

  • I wish I could dance every part and sing along too, but I guess I'll have to be content with watching it again and again. I love this song and I love Aladdin!!

  • Did they just fly off on a magic...cardboard? O_O

  • Aladdin and Jasmine are like the cartoon version of Brad Kane and Lea Salongga

  • aladdin was my childhood crush.. brad kane fits it nicely :)

  • @Chelseaaannn haha, totally! :P

    I'm the same

  • they deserved a standing O !

  • Why can't award shows be like this anymore??

  • Brad looks so handsome :)

  • He's kinda hot...

  • the woman at the start is doing an indian dance rather than arabic style. good work nonetheless.

  • i soooo love the flying carpet! =)

  • arabic for roben? O.o wtf

  • phoooow. Bradley caleb kane - you blow me away.

  • aladdin is arabic? if yes..why do those dancers dances indian way? :)

  • Brad Kane is quite good looking.

  • @bookchick08 of course he is..

  • i love aladdin so much!

    this is so awesome! thanks!

  • i love aladdin so much!

    this is so awesome! thanks!

  • i freakin LOVE Brad's voice <33

  • oh my - Brad looks rather dashing in this video :D

  • you can tell it's lyp synced because lea salongas vibrato is so much stronger live. awesome performance though :)

  • wow, they really made them look like Aladdin and Jasmine!

  • @nkyryry it was lip synced. In an recent interview with Lea Salonga she said it had to be due to the magic carpet being on a fork lift. saying quote "every time the carpet would come on it was this (Whoosh Sound.). It would just go right into the microphones, so there was no way we could do it live. But, there were many game attempts"

  • @summergirl385 It does seem kind of obvious that the singing is lip-synched. But altogether it is a decent production number.

    Out of curiousity, where did you hear Lea Salonga talk about this?

  • Okay for everyone talking about Alladin being on Broadway. It is only considered being on Broadway if it is staged in the designated section of Broadway in Manhattan. So if it's playing or Seattle, Chicago, or Disney World it is not on Broadway. It is also not an "Off Broadway" production, because that still means it has to be done in New York. Im not "Trolling" (if that's what you guys are calling it nowdays), just letting everyone know.

  • wow they really made them look like Aladdin and Jasmine!

  • I'm listening to this right now... At 14, I was about I don't know 5 or 6 when i saw this movie.... Great times!

  • @regn23nky im 17 and im watchin it,...

  • They should have had the same set up they used when they recorded.. the drums and the arabian music kind of kill it

  • This should be on the dvd or blu-ray love this performance !

  • 14 people need hearing aids!

  • I would have been cool if they had done a live action version of Disney's Aladdin! :)

  • Recorded this on VHS when it aired and watched it over and over as a kid! 18 years later I'm now an actor living in New York City... Come on Disney, it's time to bring this to Broadway! I really like the staging they did here with all the dancers and such! Thanks for putting this on YouTube!

  • yeahhhnot arabic...indian???

  • OMG...I never knew this was Lea!!!! No wonder I loved singing this song so much!!! :)

  • sound more egyption than arabic

  • Beautiful vocal performances. I liked that they were singing slower - it actually worked. However, I didn't like the instrumental arrangement. I also didn't care for the dancers. The song and vocalists are great on their own. There was no need for the other stuff.

  • he is so hot

  • wow. they're amazing!!

    i'm having a big crush on brad kane! LOL. even though he's like 40 something now.

    his teenage look was awesome!

  • its not lip synced lol. these are the broadway performers Disney hired to record the original song used in the movie.

  • this doesnt sound lke its coming from them but i love their voices and this song i hope they are really singing it live

  • love the arabian bkground music ^__^

  • Is this really lip sync? because I can hear their breathing on their microphones....I think.

  • @justgurLz I agree, I don't think it is :)

  • @justgurLz I forgot what's it called but it's like a back up of them singing just in case they run out of breath cause it's pretty hard to sing and move around at the same time. It's not lip synching though.

  • Lea was in her element... on a Broadway stage. Brad and Lea definitely complement each other. This arrangement was excellent... combining the original arrangement with elements from "Arabian Nights."

  • nope its lea salonga who sang the original song in alladin and mulan..... and shes not lipysynicing.. its her real voice

  • i love that the magic carpet actually flies :)

  • @ancapeva LIES! The carpet was hoisted! =)

  • who cares if they lip synced, the setting is freaking bad ass.

  • Sorry but I do not like all that crap music in the background. Where is the original music? It was so perfect the way it was

  • @CarolinaGurl99 i think they intentionally rearranged "A Whole New World" to make it fit the setting, the streets of Agrabah at night. that's why they combined the original arrangement with the beat resembling "Arabian Nights".

    in the move where the magic carpet takes Aladdin and Jasmine up in the clouds and swoop down to various majestic locations, the original arrangement complemented the scene with a mixed symphony of strings and wind instruments.

  • LIP SYNC!

  • @scream261 theres no way their lip syncing

  • @scream261 Of course. They don't allow live performances at the Oscars anymore (that practice has been in place for ages). The producers don't want to take any chances on hitches.

  • @scream261 They were the one who sang that song in the movie. Of course you would think that. Because it was their true voices in the first place

  • I think Aladdin's singing voice (Brad Kane) looks more like the character than his speaking voice (Scott Weinger).

    I kinda like it that way, though;)

  • HAHA, I WAS ONLY ONE YEAR OLD WHEN THIS WAS TAKEN.

  • Why do that sound EXACTLY like the characters in the movie?

  • @bparker65 because they are the ones who sang it for the movie :)

  • @bparker65 they r the people who originally sing this song in the movie BUT they r NOT the people who play the characters voices they just sing this song :D

  • @bparker65 because they are the original people who sang the song!

  • @bparker65 It's the real singers that are singing. It isn't lip syncing. They are just dressed upp.

  • They should have done a big performance for I See the Light. Sigh. What, are the Oscars trying to save money? -.-

  • I wish they did something like this with the "Tangled" performance. :O But this is really good! :D

  • Great! I love Lea Solonga! Since i'm filipino i just am glad to see her in concert every time i get tickets!

  • i didnt no she was viet

  • I love the music from the classic Disney movies.. I wish I was alive to see this haha.

  • did this song win?

  • @xoxlithium yup

  • THIS is what the oscars of today are missing.

  • loved those days when the soundtrack became as big as the movies themselves... the 90's really did great wonders in terms of music... every academy awards event became a spectacle not just about movies but for music as well...the good old days.

  • What happened to the days when they would SING the songs in the Oscars!?

    Now they only make a brief cameo!

    What happened to the overelaborated things like this ones!?

  • lea salonga and mary costa have the most beautiful voices i've ever heard; voices fit for princesses!

  • Was this the Oscars? with the whole Aladdin feel, and them dressed as their characters... OMG i can't wait for Mandy Moore and Zac Levi to sing for this year's Oscars!!! :D

  • Back When Disney was good........ <3 I miss the 90's

  • the real voices of the movie? awesome!!! hope, there could be musical!!!

  • Lea and Brad need to do a broadway version and star as Aladdin and Jasmine. They're perfect

  • That was cool and pretty. They look so young.

  • K honestly, Lea Solonga and Brad Kane can actually pull off their character's physical appearance. Lea is filipino (like me!) so she has the naturally darker skin, hair, eyes, in essence, the perfect Jasmine. And Brade Kane has the height [hopefully the "physicality" ;) ] and with makeup he can pull off Aladdin's face, he also has the PERFECT hair! I'd totally go see the broadway. Not because I love the movie but because I get to see the SINGERS LIVE!!! ARGH!! <3 <3

  • GORGEOUS

  • Amazing & Unbelievable.....

  • Does anybody but me find the carpet amazing?! It's like an ACTUAL magic carpet haha. REALLY cool effect. And the sets were Brilliant. I hope that when it goes up in Seattle (and potentially Broadway) the sets and effects look this good. Oh, and of course Brad and Lea are magical. This song brings tears to me eyes :-)

  • @MrActor123456789 I'm amazed my the magic carpet, too! :D

  • Correct me if I'm wrong but this is the only time that Brad and Lea sang the song live. I wish they would get together and sing it again.

  • LOL! HOW AWESOME!!! Brad Kane totally looks like Aladdin! I wish the quality was better. but this video is the best! doesnt lea do the singing voice of Mulan too?

  • @Susejevoli3 YUP

  • @Susejevoli3 i know thats what i was thinkin!!!!!!!

  • @Susejevoli3 yes she did..

  • @Susejevoli3 Yes, the Reflection! She is beautiful, Lea, that is! She is like the true princess! I am so proud of her being an International actress and singer!

  • i like this aladdin xp

  • The BEST version. -3 the other female singers are equally good but their voices were too deep for this song. LEA's the best.

  • when i heard dem singing i was like waiting for a chartoon to come out or sumfing

  • @yensidnaf OH MY GOD NO WAY!!! AHHHH!

  • I woulda pulled out the magic carpet at the beginning of the performance..... :P

  • Was this the Oscar award opening?

  • Fantastic!!! 

  • Fantastic

  • Their professionals

  • wtf why did they ruin this song

  • @h2ochick74 its perfect:)

  • @h2ochick74 Ruin it? They were the 2 who originally sang it. lol.

  • @CShorty55 I think she's talking about the indian instruments playing in the background.

  • @h2ochick74 The arrangement?

    I don't like it either.

    I think they compromised on the beauty of the song (the melody, the feeling) to go for an oriental-eastern thing so they could have the dancers.

  • god bless old disney

  • Brad Kane is just hot.

  • i love the old disney, showing these movies

    now its overrun by stupid shows lke jonas and hannah montana

    what has disney turned into?????

    we want the old disney back!!!

  • @mocakar97 it wasnt nearly as good as the old movies but i thought the princess in the frog had a tiny bit of that disney princess magic

  • Oh, look.. no autotuning or lip syncing...... :) Miss these days, for sure.

  • The original singers are the best after all.

  • A proud representative of Philippines!!!! Oh Lea Salonga! Angelic voice!

  • FANTASTIC!

  • BRAD KANE IS GORGEOUS!! AND LEA SALONGA IS AMAZING AS ALWAYS

  • I love how they mixed the arabic style of music with the disney song.

  • brade kane's voice ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh its so amazing

  • woaaaaah. this is simply amazing!..

  • imagine if this was recorded in high def!

  • i am in love with him

  • God, I love how they bring to life the animated movies :)

  • woww!

  • oh my god, i saw pictures of brad kane when he was a teenager, and i had a crush on him. he was so cuteeeeeee !
