Part of Your World (Jodi Benson)
The song Part of Your World is a song from the movie The Litte Mermaid (1989). Interestingly I think it fits so close to the state of mind where an undergrad aspiring for a PhD: “Even if we aren’t literally mermaids/mermen wanting to be human, there are some goals or things we want in life that are just as seemingly impossible. So while the song is specific to Ariel’s situation, it’s incredibly accessible to every audience member” (Howard Ashman, lyric writer who collaborated with Alen Menken to write the song)....
