Remembering Howard Ashman always makes me a weepy mess. Today would have been his 70th birthday. My two favorite songs of his are “Proud of Your Boy,” which I remember hearing on a multi-album Disney release that included this demo of the song.
Of course, after being a somewhat ~hidden~ song for a long time because it had been cut from the Aladdin movie, it reappeared in the musical.
And ... “Since You Came to This Town,” the demo of which I could listen to on repeat forever and be happy.
From Ashman and Menken’s first collaboration — Kurt Vonnegut's God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater — we finally got an album recording of it just a few years back: open.spotify.com/album/33wyVe12…
