The songs “Kiss the Girl” and “Poor Unfortunate Souls” will include new lyrics to reflect this shift.
The live action remake of “The Little Mermaid” will have updated lyrics to include consent, the songwriter has said. The classic Disney movie, originally released as an animation in 1989, has been updated to reflect changing social attitudes towards consent, according to composer Alan Menken, who wrote the soundtrack to the original movie with Howard Ashman. Songs “Kiss the Girl” and “Poor Unfortunate Souls” will include new lyrics to reflect this shift.
The song’s lyrics urge Prince Eric to kiss Ariel before it’s too late. In the original lyrics to “Kiss the Girl,” Sebastian, Ariel’s crab pal, sings: “Yes, you want her. Look at her, you know you do. Possible she wants you, too. There is one way to ask her. It don’t take a word. Not a single word. Go on and kiss the girl.
