- THE WORKS BELONG TO DON BLUTH AND THE AUDIO IS ALL ORIGINAL. I OWN NOTHING!
I've tried to find this raw song from a certain point on TH-cam, but it was no where! It's one of my favorite songs from the movie, so let me share it with you c:
EDIT:
after 5 years I finally edited the title because all the random influx of comments mentioning was annoying. It has now been done.
I'm also glad that there are so many other people out there that love this movie as much as I do 💖
When he comes out and hits her with the "And I'll never LET YOU FALL" Me, as a child, started crying every time i used to watch this movie. Cheesey but i always loved it
Kimberly Tuffley he’s such a drama queen
@@venom_4357 Don't you mean Drama King? This is really one of the best guilty pleasures out there, there extist a lot more cheesier and illogical wierd creations than this one.
Its such a big moment😭😭😭😭
It made me cry just now watching it 😢 I loved this movie as a kid
* me as an adult
The way he came and sang "and I'll never let you fall" just at the very moment Tumbelina was falling at her lowest (mentaly) because of the hard times she went through and her grief for her thought to be dead love is CINEMA. Like I was already crying hard for her pain but when he came in and embraced her I melted down. The sudden but yet smooth change of emotion broke me. I was crying from relief and fulfillment and also because a tiny part of me knew how hard it is to get a relationship like theirs in reality
One of the most underrated ending in Cinema!!! Live action could never ever evoke the emotional build up!!! Jodi shines as ever!!!!
Cornelius: "Will you marry me?"
Thumbelina: "I will. Thank you for actually asking instead having your mother force it to happen, or having your mouse buddy pitch it for you, or just being a general beetle about it."
Cornelius: "... What?"
Thumbelina: "It's been a long winter."
Thumbelina: I'll explain after the honeymoon
Thumbalina: it's a long story
A very long story. You might say, a full length animated movie's worth of storytime...
One thing I never picked up on as a kid is how Thumbelina changes by the end of the movie. She's been so beaten down by the world and how it's treated her and you can really see it here. She's been knocked down and picked up and knocked down again only to repeat the process and she's just done with it. 'Let's be practical'? That's something she never would have said at the beginning of the movie. But the beauty of her character is that she doesn't become unkind or hardened by it. It's so subtle but so well done.
Not to mention there is so much more to 'Let me be your wings' then you would realise at first. Cornelius asks for her to let him by her wings, let him support and take care of her. In this current dynamic he is being put in a dominant role so to speak. (I'm not saying that he would abuse this dynamic cause he is clearly a cinnamon roll but he's definitely taking the lead in this. He is in control.) When they first meet, Thumbelina is at the height of her innocence and naivety. She's very sweet and well meaning but also I could imagine not mature enough for a serious relationship which is pretty much what they leap to right from the get go. Then shit gets complicated. Thumbelina is kidnapped, faced with many dangerous situations, ect, ect. By the end of the movie, with a lifetime worth of new experiences and a pretty jarring reality call Thumbelina doesn't need Cornelius to be her wings. 'My very own wings'. It's very much symbolic of her now being on equal terms with him. So, despite the discrepancies of how little they really know about each other, and only having met once, they actually have a decent starting point for a proper relationship. I'm also not saying that Thumbelina had to suffer to learn all that she did cause that's problematic in of itself, but because this is an old film it wouldn't have been questioned back then. And honestly, Thumbelina could have matured within the relationship itself like most young people do, but it wouldn't be nearly as exciting a story.
I 100% agree. I feel that when she sings the reprise she’s trying hard to tap into her naivety that she’s lost throughout the 6 months she’s been gone from home & that makes the “ everyday you’ll take me higher….lets be practical ” so much more gut wrenching. Another song that really helped to strengthen her character is “ once there was the sun” as throughout the first part of the film she was struggling but still holding onto the chance of seeing Cornelius & her mother again but it’s When Mrs dormouse tells her Cornelius is dead she breaks & loses faith. I would say after seeing Jacquimo she regains some control. Which leads her to break off marriage with mr mole because she feels “ if I can’t have my prince I won’t have anyone “. Eventually she sings but every time she starts she can’t continue because she doesn’t think she can. It’s that last notes in that “ everyday you’ll take me higher “ that really show how far she’s reaching. She’s trying so hard to make herself believe that Cornelius is still alive & will come back but the “ let’s be practical “ is her squishing that last shred of hope. It’s then when Cornelius sings “ AND ILL NEVER LET YOU FALL” that “ you.. it’s you!! Cornelius your alive “ is her hope bursting back to life along with the joy of knowing everything is alright.
I also always thought the reason thumbalina was able to change the seasons was because her beauty joy & warmth was most alive in her darkest moment & from the patch of weeds came the veil of the fairies
Thumbelina was screaming, "This is a weed patch!" And I was like, "Honey child, that's a tree." And then it zoomed out and I was like, "Well, damn. You right, sorry, babe."
Nerdicaful lmao! Laughed so hard I choked then had an asthma attack
🎵Let me be your wiggggg.🎵
Nerdicaful 😸😹😹
😂😂
He's the best wing man & friend any girl could ask for.
I honestly...loved everything about this movie. THIS. was MY princess movie. It's all I ever knew!
Anastasia too
EXACTLY, But I remember always getting sad because for a time, even if we knew it, she didn't know Cornelius was alive
This movie,Anastasia and swan princess gave me unreal expectations of love 😂😭
Holy shit and Beauty and the beast
The Little Mermaid is probably the worst. Hahaha. But I can't help it. I will always love it. (Oh shit😅)
But, it made me believe that good men exist. That I'd find someone who loves me just like that. I know we all have our person waiting ❤
I was adopted, Anastacia destroyed me. 😭
I AGREE!!
I used to watch this movie all the time when I was little. Cornelius was my first crush ever.
Same
Same!!
Same
Same
Same. Sometimes I wish he were real
I still absolutely LOVE this movie. And I am a firm believer that this was Jodi's best vocal work. Her singing moves me to tears every time, even now.
even though this movie is cheesy af, and I even knew it back when I was really little, it has the best music and moments. this was definately one of my favourites parts. my heart ❤️ still bursts with joy for her when she sees Cornelius!
I always loved this song the woman who sang this and Ariel's songs ( from little mermaid) has the voice of an angel Thumbelina was always a fairy I thought... she just was born to a human so she didn't have wings
***VIXEN *** Jodi Benson
sorta like some trans girls :)
DIS IS THE VEIL OF THE FAIRIESSS
Vale
Thumbelina: Jacquimo, please, can you take me home?
Jacquimo: No, because I didn't hear you. I only hear what I want to hear.
Hannah Shribman-Brown *NEVER RELATED MORE*
🎶...AND I'LL NEVER LET YOU FALL🎵
Cornelius 😍😍😂
Her voice is so charming
fun fact: her voice actress also voiced the little mermaid
Jodie Benson❤️✨
To me this song is perfect because it’s this moment she’s defeated in her thinking that Cornelius isn’t coming for her and he’s not coming back but throughout the whole movie she still believes Cornelius is coming back for her and she never gives up on him even when she’s presented with the toad and mole and beetle who offer her fame and money popularity; it’s only as when she finds out he’s “dead” that she’s fully convinced and fully given up I mean even during her wedding with the mole and her ring glows with images of Cornelius she starts to remember that “he’ll never forget her” and she still love him. I think that this is a true testament as to how strong love can be and how hard loving can be
Jodi Benson sings like an angel~
That moment you realized Ariel and Batman are getting married
What????
I don’t see Batman on any of his credits. Harry Osborn, yes
Actually Gary Imhoff played the Green Goblin.
Wait what? THAT'S-
😂
1:47 the moment I gasped and cried happy tears for Thumbelina and her fairy prince, Cornelius.
Honestly if I was her I would cry after seeing him; saying what the fuck? where were you?!
Frozen in ice
stuck under the ice for over half of the movie XD
Dying frozen on ice 😒🙄
Such a cute film! Still puts a smile on me, even though I'm not like 3 anymore.😂💕
Believe me I know this movie is cheesy AF but in all honesty, I'd have to say Cornelius was my childhood crush. The earlier version of this song towards the beginning of the movie was my favorite childhood song. I had no idea why but it was. Now 9 years later I understand. It's beautiful and the melody is gorgeous. I have my grandma to thank. She got me the DVD of this movie and I became obsessed. I watched it every day
I was six, maybe seven, years old when I first saw this. Still today it’s one of my favorites.🥰
Fun fact: thumbelina voiced by Jodi Benson, that voice actress who voiced also Ariel the little mermaid
I used to watch this movie EVERY SINGLE DAY!
"This IS the veil of The FAIRIES!!" 😂😂😂
90s baby & this has always been my film. I love everything about this movie ❤️ I want to find a fairy prince Cornelius 😍
I forgot how much I loved this movie.
OH MY GOD STOP IM CRYING WHEN HE CAME BACK
This movie is so good i use to watch it all the time when i was a kid my mom even had the dvd but my sister took it so i started watching it from Disney plus
1:26 my fav part😍😍
Same her voice is so beautiful there 💕
1:46
Jacquesmole: Thumbelina, you are saying that like he is already dead.
Thumbelina: THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TELL YOU THIS WHOLE TIME. CORNELIUS, HE'S...
Re-enter Cornelius.
I just wonder how Thumbelina ain’t crying after seeing Cornelius. If I thought my mans was dead and he just popped up and started singing, I would’ve ugly-cried so hard out of joy.
Her voice is so pretty 😍😍😍😍😍
This song makes me cry . Every. Single . Time
Giacomo is the real hero. I absolutely love this scene!
Imagine the beautiful ginger babies they’ll have!
Shes strawberry blonde, he's auburn haired.
@@mermaidethereal3578 Well, y'know, mix and match.
Art Lover true
Her voice honestly gives me chills
After watching her singing Soon then straight to this, i can clearly see the difference in Thumbelina's demeanor. It's subtle, but it's def there. The Thumbelina who sings Soon is so innocent & have strong belief to the world and imagination that she kisses a picture of a fairy prince on a book.
This Thumbelina repeatedly shows Jacque that she doesn't believe that the place is what Jacque claims it is; she wants to just go home, be reunited with her mother and get some peaceful sleep for once; she cuts off her singing (which she definitely enjoys doing) and says "let's be practical" to her only loyal friend she has in her entire journey.
The Thumbeline who sings Soon is definitely still there and still enjoys singing, but had Cornelius not coming, she would have been fine just being home with her mother. She has accepted the fact that the love of her life is gone and is ready to just have a peaceful life where, for once, no one is forcing themselves on her.
i now cornilios is a cartoon movie character but he is cute and the acter who palyed him is a good singer.
I just love that moment when she gets her wings Q.Q
No I am not crying! xD
It has been one of my favorite romantic movies I have watched.
I like when she wears her hair down it looks so pretty!
"And always follow your heart!" ❤️
This movie gave me serious anxiety as a child and I'd be lying if I didn't feel it now listening to this song 💀
I still love it though
Why anxiety?
When I was little every time I went to hospital I would always bring and watch Thumbelina. Because when I hear that song it gave me hope and kept me going through tough times
I like how her dress changes to look perfect lol
Georgia moore and the animation on the wings is so delicate
All my friends are engaged or married and I'm still sitting here waiting for Cornelius to pop up out of nowhere and ask me to marry him, smh
1:26 this kept repeating in my head during my math test 😂
Im so glad i found this again 😆💜
That moment when you realize Cornelius is Batman
Gary imhoff voiced Cornelius
Her voice tho 😍😍😍😍😍😍 I swear id melt if a woman sung like that to me 🥰🥰🥰
This scene is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL
Forever crushing on Cornelius!
hes 16….
Ugh that beautiful. Same voice actor as Ariel
My favorite part is Thumbelina's mother not being forgotten as she is shown at her wedding
I was just thinking of watching this movie too this is crazy
So beautiful 😢
when i was 6 and 7 I loved this movie
What a romantic cartoon ❣️❣️
Title:
Let me be your *wigs*
Aliume I just saw ur comment and realised it siad wigs and in ded
Thumbelina to Cornelius:
Let me be your *beard*
Let me be your wings . You mean?
Lmao you're right!!!!😂😂😂😂
Let me be your only weave
Everyone keep saying how 🧀 this movie is but cheesiness and romance are couple of the things that make a great marriage.
Opening To Thumbeline 1994 VHS
so much love to this😭😍dreamy far distance relationship romance me loooonging for moments like this so priceless in feels❤❤❤
I love this song and movie so much my lover since I was young has dedicated this song to me, let me be your wings♡
Cornelius: Will you marry me?
Me: Nah babe. We had one date almost a year ago.
But it was a very magical date xD
Listen. If a man takes me on a magical moonlit flight and sings to me in yearning with _that_ voice? It won't be him who proposes. My guest list is already mentally prepared.
Him appearing me 🥰😊he was my first crush as I little kid he was cute
I loved this movie so much, it's been forever since I seen this movie tho I don't remember her getting wings
Romance overload tears activate now! 1:47
Yeah my heart jumps everytime since forever on this part, is like the best part ever, I want a Cornelius
Awwww memories!!!!! And I still know it by memory.lol
Cornelius looks like Dimitri from Anastasia!!!
If Anastasia and Dimitri had a child HE WOULD BE IT
yes well, that would be because this is a Don Bluth movie too... and if we can say anything about Don Bluth, it's that he has exactly three designs for men. Broken-Nosed Hero, Round-Faced Older Fella, and I know there's a third one but I forget what it is.
@@larsmeridian4312charming brown haired love interest. Just look at Odette’s prince: Derik. Derik, Demetre & cornelius all are white Ken with brown hair.
Nobody:
Thumbelina: thIS IS A WEED PATCH
Me nowadays: a WEED patch??? DOES ANYBODY HAVE ROLLING PAPER? 😂
This seems simple. Sing 🎤, get husband 🤔
Princess Koko it's foolproof!
😭🤣
I have Let Me Be Your Wings duet that is in the endings credits on my phone for when my dad calls it plays that song.
I loved this movie as a kid 😍
But it’s not lost to me that the bird could’ve flown her home the entire movie 😂
That's not fair! I've kissed dozens of fairies and i havent gotten my own wings 😒
BrieLovesTea keep trying
Maybe when you find the right one
Every single song from this animation is amazing
I just imagine fairy tale EP1 Natsu meet lucy and show her the fairy tail guild...
Lucy: what is this place?
Natsu: THIS IS VEIL OF THE FARIES!!!!!
i love this movie
Thank you for sharing love this song and enjoyed the movie also. Thank you again
I wonder what will happen if Thumbelina sprouted a fish tail than wings
Khadron Kershaw that would be an unexpected turnout and I'd be in the front row eating popcorn
I loved this movie and I still do☺
This movie came out the year i was born and I had never seen it up until just last month XD when i decided to check it out lol
Jacquimo was my crush when i was a kid 😂💖 i still think hes adorable today
Those little bugs went through some crazy shit just to get thoese two together
her voice
When i was a kid and Cornelius appeared i remember losing my shit lmao
Really cute movie. Cheesey beyond belief, but cute. Great musical moments too.
I love this so much more than the crap Barbie remake. I remember this movie from my childhood
Diamone Evans same 👌🏻
Will he still be her wings?
She doesn't need him to be ;)
I hope I can see Jodi Benson in real life..
I love this movie this is the only movie about love
My favorite part is were the Prince ask thumbnail to marry him that is awesome I watch this when I was a kid
Chick is lucky. In one movie, she gets feet and becomes a human forever and here she gets wings and becomes a fairy forever.
I met Jodi Benson the voice of Thumbelina she’s a sweet lady❤
I didn't cry.......not at all....
At this scene i noticed how it turned into a whole opera
Love the old animation.
Ever notice how she does that head thing at the end like Ariel does
This movie is not cheesy.
