My mom used to sing "Baby Mine" to me when I was little. I cherish those memories. That part of the show always made her cry too. Sometimes she would cry when she sang the song to me.

Baby mine, don't you cry.
Baby mine, dry your eyes.
Rest your head close to my heart,
Never to part,
Baby of mine.

So Sweet!

My Momma used to sing Gershwin and Cole Porter tunes to me.

Maybe that’s why I am so weird now! LOL!

There was a scene in Snow White (1938) when the evil witch was making her poison apple in the dungeon.

There was a skeleton on the floor of a man who had died reaching for a cup of water. The witch cackled, “Want Some WATER?” and she kicks the tin cup at the skeleton, shattering it into a million pieces. To my 6 year old mind, THAT scene was more disturbing than any other scene I have ever seen in a cartoon, because of the cruelty it implied. At the time, Disney was criticized for this scene, the “Baby Mine” scene, and of course, the group of crows that sang “When I see an Elephant fly”.

Like I said before, “Scary” is fun.

Cruelty, Loss, Abandonment, etc, aren’t.

Of course, then there was the time Luke Skywalker came home and found his entire foster family slaughtered.

It’s always SOMETHING!LOL.
