A LITTLE SUSSY: Part of Your World VIDEO

I've been dying to show you this funny home video of me singing Part of Your World with my sister Nina. I finally figured out how to rip it from our video-to-dvd. There are sooooo many hilarious things about this video, including:

+ We were home sick with chicken pox. This video isn't the only one that we did... making my dad record everything I thought to sing. Mostly church songs. Did you know I was a child church star? I kid, but seriously... I did do a music video with my older sister when I was about this age to help little kids learn songs. I'll dig that one up for you too. You'll die laughing.
+ Sister Nina is totally "little sister," only catching the last word of every line, swaying her head side to side and giving crazy eyes. She steals the show.
+ My intensity is hi-larious. The shotgun vibrato is my favorite -as well as getting out of breath for the intense parts and scratching at my chicken poxed face. Oh, and I've definitely picked up a few things from watching Whitney Houston.
+ My mom laughing in the background.
+ Our crimped, scraggly hair.
+ I have at least 3 key changes.
Enjoy.

Nicole,
Oh! What a precocious one you were.
You two are darling!!!

That is AWESOME. If we had had a video camera when I was a kid I would've done the exact same thing. As it is, we had lots and lots of cassette tapes with our voices recorded. I love listening to those...if anybody can even find a cassette player anymore.

i love everything about this. I think you missed your calling and you should be on Broadway with Nat.

LOL Nicole, that was amazing! Love it. You guys are so cute! I love how dramatic you were. :)

How did you transfer it from video to dvd?

Actually, it was much better a Capella singing than most of my Junior High students can do! I'm pretty impressed that you taught yourself to sing with a perfect mouth shape and almost perfect pitch at such a young age!!

Cry-laughing. Thank you.

LOVING this--especially loved the dropped "r" in "world" at the end. This also made me feel extremely old. I was on my MISSION when "The Little Mermaid" came out! I also have collected all the Children's Video Songbooks for my kiddos and it truly is fun seeing you and Natalie in them! Hope you figure out how to post some of the videos. :)

YES. every time i took a bath (or was in a pool) i pretended to be aerial splashing against the rocks.
Alicia W.January 10, 2012 at 2:46 PM
I remember when Little Mermaid came out! Now my daughter pretends to be Ariel...she'll get a kick out of this video when she comes home from school!
