What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?
" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" is a song with lyrics written by Alan Bergman and Marilyn Bergman and original music written by Michel Legrand for the 1969 film" The Happy Ending".
The song was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song but lost out to" Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head".
Alan Bergman would recall that after Michel Legrand had written eight melodies which were somehow not viable for the film, Marilyn Bergman suggested the opening line" What are you doing the rest of your life?", and Legrand then completed the song's melody based on that phrase.
Marilyn Bergman would later comment on the double meaning of the phrase" What are you doing the rest of your life?" within its parent film: as the romantic theme song's title the question overtly references the marriage proposal Mary Spencer( played by Jean Simmons) received and accepted sixteen years earlier but, as Mary's present- day angst becomes apparent," What are you doing the rest of your life?" is recast as a question Mary must ask herself.
" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" was sung in" The Happy Ending" by Michael Dees whose version was included on the film's soundtrack album.
The first evident" outside" cover was by Barbra Streisand who recorded the song on 24 September 1969 in the first session for her intended album" The Singer", with the track having a single release 26 October 1969.
After two later sessions- in respectively March and April of 1970- Streisand had recorded a total of eight tracks toward" The Singer", only to have Clive Davis shelve the project in favor of an album which was soft rock rather than easy listening, with Streisand cutting the first tracks for what would be her 1971 album release" Stoney End" on 29 July 1970.
" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" was utilized as the B-side of Streisand's# 1 hit" The Way We Were" released in 1973, and was included on the 1974 album release" The Way We Were".
Although the Streisand version drew no evident attention in its original single release," What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" did reach the Easy Listening Top 40 ranking in" Billboard"- with a# 40 peak- via a January 1970 recording by veteran vocalist Jaye P. Morgan, whose version served as the title cut for her first album release in eight years( and her last until 1976).
Also in 1970" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" was recorded by Della Reese for her album" Right Now": the 9 November 1997 broadcast of the CBS series" Touched by an Angel" featured Reese's character; the angel Tess, singing the song in the guise of a supperclub singer ..
" What Are Doing the Rest of Your Life?" was also recorded by Dusty Springfield in 1970, in the July sessions at Trident Studios( Soho) for her" See All Her Faces" album, but despite Springfield having had a Top 40 hit with the Bergman's first Oscar- winning composition" The Windmills of Your Mind" her version of" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" was cut from her upcoming album without being mixed, remaining" in the can" until 1994 when Philips Records put together the four volume box set" Dusty: The Legend Of Dusty Springfield" with a completed recording of" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" being included on the disc devoted to" Rarities"( the track was in fact first released earlier in the year as a bonus on a CD single which paired Springfield's hits" Goin' Back" and" Son- of- a Preacher Man").
In 2006 Springfield's version of" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" was featured in a 60- second commercial for diamonds- sponsored by the Diamond Trading Company- which aired on American television, in cinemas and online.
In 1972 Sarah Vaughan recorded" What Are You Doing the Rest of Your Life?" for the album" Sarah Vaughan with Michel Legrand" on which Legrand acted as arranger and conductor.
The track would win Legrand the 1972 Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying a Vocalist.
More than thirty years later, Billy Childs, Gil Goldstein, and Heitor Pereira won the 2006 Grammy Award for the same category for a version performed by trumpeteer Chris Botti and vocalist Sting on Botti's 2005 album" To Love Again".
There is also a song called" What Are You Doin' the Rest of Your Life?" in the 1944 film" Hollywood Canteen", performed by Jack Carson and Jane Wyman with the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra.

Part of Your World
" Part of Your World" is a song written by lyricist Howard Ashman and composer Alan Menken for Disney's animated feature film" The Little Mermaid"( 1989).
Performed by American actress and singer Jodi Benson in the titular role as Ariel, a mermaid princess," Part of Your World" is a power ballad in which the main character expresses her strong desire to become human; its lyrics use placeholder names in lieu of several human- related terms that would be unfamiliar to a mermaid.
The film's theme song," Part of Your World" is reprised by Ariel after she rescues Eric, a human prince with whom she has fallen in love, from drowning.
Directly influenced by Broadway and musical theatre, Ashman strongly believed that" The Little Mermaid" would benefit from an" I Want" song – a musical number during which the main character sings about what they hope to accomplish by the end of their story.
Directors Ron Clements and John Musker originally asked Ashman to write a song for Ariel in which she expresses her romantic feelings for Prince Eric, but the lyricist felt that a song that details the character's fascination with the human world would better serve the film's plot.
Ashman recruited Benson, with whom he had previously collaborated on the stage musical" Smile"( 1986), to record" Part of Your World", and worked closely with her to ensure that she delivered a desirable performance.
Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg initially ordered that" Part of Your World" be removed from the final film due to concerns that the ballad would bore young children.
However, Ashman, Clements, Musker and animator Glen Keane ultimately convinced Katzenberg that" Part of Your World" is essential to the film's narrative, and the song was spared after audiences appeared to enjoy it during a subsequent test screening.
" Part of Your World" has garnered critical acclaim; both film and music critics praised the song's quality and Benson's vocal performance.
Several media publications agree that" Part of Your World" ranks among the greatest Disney songs ever written, and credit the success of the ballad with making" I Want" songs a standard component of future animated musical films.
Critics have offered various interpretations of the song's empowering lyrics, ranging from seeking independence from overprotective parents to feminism and LGBT rights.
In addition to becoming Benson's signature song, which she continues to perform live," Part of Your World" has been covered extensively by several artists of various genres, including Faith Hill, Jessica Simpson, Miley Cyrus, Bruno Mars, Carly Rae Jepsen, Jessie J and Sara Bareilles.
Actress Sierra Boggess debuted the song in the stage musical adaptation of the film, for which she originated the role of Ariel
