About the Song
"Kiss the Girl" is an Academy Award-nominated calypso song from Disney's 1989 animated film The Little Mermaid, composed by Alan Menken with lyrics by Howard Ashman. In the film, the song was performed by Samuel E. Wright. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Song simultaneously with another song from the film, "Under the Sea", which eventually won the award. At the point in the film where this song is sung, Ariel has already been turned into a human by Ursula, but can no longer speak. Unless Ariel can get her true love, Prince Eric, to kiss her before three days is up, she will turn back into a mermaid and Ursula will own her. While the two are sitting in a boat in a lagoon, Sebastian, Flounder, and Scuttle try to get Ariel and Eric to kiss so Ariel will become human permanently. Sebastian suggests that Eric wants to kiss Ariel but he is too shy to do so, and that he should just go.    Download this sheet!
