REVIEW:
Why this romantic song works so well is that it spells out the title characters’ evolving relationship. More so, the song articulately brings their private thoughts to life, along with those quietly observing them.
While Robby Benson’s brief contribution is spot-on, it’s Paige O’Hara’s radiant voice that imbues “Something There” as a Broadway-style gem. She receives delightful support from her fellow cast members, particularly Angela Lansbury at its conclusion. Simply, this classy track’s timeless blend of poignancy and romantic humor is tough to match.
