To tie in with the release of the new live-action version of “The Little Mermaid” in cinemas today, Walt Disney Records has released the soundtrack to the film on digital platforms including Amazon, Apple and Spotify.  There is also a deluxe version with more tracks.

“The Little Mermaid” is the beloved story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. The youngest of King Triton’s daughters and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and, while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. While mermaids are forbidden from interacting with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy.

The new albums feature new recording of the classic songs by Academy Award winners Alan Menken (music) and Howard Ashman (lyrics), in addiiton to some new original songs written by Alan Menken featuring new lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda.
