Baby Mine [from Dumbo/Beaches] cover - Bette Midler

As you can see from the video title, I know this song from 'Beaches' with Bette Midler, rather than from 'Dumbo'. As a child 'Dumbo' always upset me too much - I watched it once or twice as a small child, but I remember feeling so very, very sad and emotional about the whole 64 minutes that I never watched it again until adulthood. And it still upsets me now (as does Bambi)!

So this is more Bette Midler's style, but ultimately it's my own little take on it. A little rough around the edges (as usual) but it's another song I cherish, so wanted to post it.

Very nice!!! I used to sing this to my babies when they were little. I didn't sound as good as you do, though!

Beautiful song to sing to a baby or your child. Sweet. It wants to make me cry. Thanks for posting. The scene in Beaches was sad.
