happy end to the tale and tomorrow's a sale

Yeah, so feel free to anticipate a lot more posts about Enchanted. I mean, gosh, it has been a good SEVEN YEARS since I had a brand new animated Disney musical to obsess over!! xD (I should really say eight years ... is Emperor's New Groove a musical? lulz, it's about as much a musical as Enchanted is animated. xD;; )

( A long and rambly and probably disjointed entry about Giselle and her relationship with previous Disney princesses. )

And almost completely unrelated to Enchanted but that it involves Alan Menken, I listened to my new copy of the Music Behind the Magic box set today. ^_^ (Yes, I had a previous copy. I lent it to a supposed friend eight years ago and never got it back, and it has since gone out of print so yay for paying double the original price. THIS NEW COPY NEVER GETS LENT TO ANYONE EVAR. >:( ) It is basically the soundtracks of The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, but it includes demo versions and songs that never made it into the movies and oh gosh it's such a fangirl thing to own but so good, so good. <3 I can only listen to it so often, though ... for whatever combination of reasons they make me kind of bittersweetly sad. :( But oh gosh right now I am so in love with "Silence is Golden," I can't believe I never paid it any attention before. And the reprise of "Arabian Nights," maybe I'm totally stupid but I never realized the version used at the end of King of Thieves is like the exact one from this set. xD; <333

Augh okay please no one make fun of me for this entry, as of late I have gotten more than enough of that at work. ^^;
