While the first “series†of the Disney’s Sing-Along Songs home video specials were more coincidental productions that were retroactively grouped together, the second series of the popular Disney music karaoke collection was made precisely as such, multiple consecutive volumes of some of the most memorable music from recent Disney movies, plus those from older films, other Disney-related media and more.
The first volume of the Sing-Along Songs series 2 was released in 1990 to celebrate the premiere of The Little Mermaid only the year before, the film that’s often considered to be the starting point of the Disney Animated Renaissance.
Here are the songs included in the Disney Sing-Along Songs second series volume: “Under the Seaâ€.
