Enchanted (cut title song) | Demo | Alan Menken
Here is composer Alan Menken's demo to the title song of Enchanted, with lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. This edit features both the intro sung by Idina Menzel and James Marsden and a 2006 demo by composer Alan Menken. This recording was provided by an anonymous source.
The deletion of the song meant that Idina Menzel, most famous for her work on Broadway and later as Elsa in the Frozen series, no longer had any singing moments in the film. In a promotional interview, Idina explained, "Nancy wasn't written with any songs, honestly. Patrick's character and my character are the New York people, and we don't sing. It was never written that way, and I actually was really flattered to be hired as an actress."
Alan further explained, "Stephen was really pushing for concluding the film with a song sequence and something new, not just a little reprise moment. And we wrote a title song called 'Enchanted,' where Edward and Nancy first connect, and then it opens up into a montage. Really, on practical terms, it was just really extremely difficult that late in the game to deliver that kind of song." ("No Songs For Enchanted Star", Sci-Fi Wire, Cindy White.)
Though there seems to have been some plans to include the song on the film's DVD release, the song was once again cut and has never been officially released in the years since. Idina would later sing in the film's 2022 sequel, Disenchanted.

    Actually this demo was all recorded at A and R studios when Bob Gaudio came to NY to do some pre production work on the film. We had a full 2 days in the studio to record demos of both new songs and some of the songs already in the musical so they could have people audition to live tracks. The players on this are Robby Merkin Piano, Howard Joines Drums, Ira Siegel Guitar, Steve Gelfand Bass and I am playing the organ. There is also a demo of Mean Green Mother around somewhere that we did.

    Man, it's been over 30 years since the passing of the legendary Howard! If only he were here to see the final version of Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin, and the soon-to-be 30 Lion King, it would've been more magical to see his reactions to these three movies! Thank you for bringing these four movies(Little Mermaid, Beauty & The Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King) to life for millions of people around the world and many more generations to come! Thank you for bringing Ariel's voice to life, making Beauty and the Beast memorable, Aladdin a magical tale and funny at the same time, and also making The Lion King one of the BEST Disney movies the world has ever seen! (well I know Howard didn't work on The Lion King, but the four movies mentioned, especially The Lion King are what REALLY made them amazing)

    I hadn't listened to this in a long time. It's so beautiful and wistful. Of course if you listen to the lyrics within the context of what it would have been meant to do in the film(hype up his 3 buddies) the music makes no sense. But listen for what it really is, a letter to Howard Ashman in the wake of his loss, and it is truly stunning and heart breaking
