Helen Reddy - Candle On The Water (Promo Music Video)

For the "Special Edition AKA High-Flying Editin" release of "Pete's Dragon" movie coming to Disney DVD August 18th 2009, I decided to help promote the release with a special music video. I really enjoyed Helen Reddy's song "Candle On The Water" and thought a nice music video would help support the release. I hope you all enjoy it. =)

What is with the overmuch backing orchestra and the backup chorus? I know I'm biased because I watched and listened to the original arrangement growing up, but really, why cover up Helen's beautiful take on this with all the extra schmaltz? The original, just a bit of piano, some strings, and Helen, simple and beautiful, why mess with it? The original arrangement is up at watch?v=1-EhH6DvjfM, it's well worth a listen.

@mojojojoplus2 They did that version to promote Pete's Dragon when it first came out. I actually like it. =)

"Pete's Dragon" (1977/78) was probably the last "old school" Disney flick ever made: a live action musical w/accompanying animation...sweet and sentimental. Even "The Cat from Outer Space" and "Unidentified Flying Oddball" though very much of the "Dean Jones" school, were attempting to cash in on the post Star Wars hype. Over the succeeding decade, things morphed from "The Black Hole" to "Tron", to the Touchstone Comedies and then the "retro/classic animation" craze ("Little Mermaid et al.).

A girl I know sang this for my play because we were doing a Walt Disney Tribute

[TheKimico16]

good memories. My Women's Choir is singing this, it took me 20 seconds while we sung this to realise it from Pete's Dragon. During the singing I stood up and shouted "OMG! THIS IS FROM PETE'S DRAGON!!!I LOVE THAT MOVIE!!" My music teacher laughed his ass off XD

@Autostade67 However, Newsies (1992) was an attemp. But a failed at the box office. But upon it's 1992 VHS release it became a cult classic.
