Coming off a string of well-received performances in the SMULE Disney Competition, maybe a stumble was inevitable.  It came in Week 6, which had a Duets theme.  I recorded while travelling, and my partner and I didn’t do anything spectacular with our song.  But my contribution was enough to get me to the semifinals, and I knew I had to do something really good.  The Final 10 were each given a decade from which to pick a song from a Disney movie.  I got the 1980s.  If you know Disney history, the 80s were not cute in terms of movies and the music in them, until THE LITTLE MERMAID in 1989.  But I discovered the pop music stylings of OLIVER AND COMPANY, and a song sung by Ruth Pointer from the Pointer Sisters, a group I loved.  I added an original rap during the bridge, earning 2nd place and a trip to the Final Round.  I love how some of it synced with the movie in the video I made…
