no way!!

[@callmehchloe4074]

My mom was 9 years old when she watched this with her Mom, then years later she watched this with my sister and I, now I watch it with my girls.

I hope you watch the Brandy version too

[@gaylacticunicorn]

This is my dogs favorite song. Whenever I put it on she stops whatever she’s doing and sits down and just listens to the song

[@NoThankUBeQuiet]

@kiranjit rana I'd guess the combo of that and rhythm

[@yippedoodah]

I really like how they chose a medieval setting for this version. It's like a background from Disney's Sleeping Beauty come to life!

[@jasonhurd4379]

I agree! Sleeping Beauty is my favorite animated film from Disney, not least due to the atmosphere of the Middle Ages. It is just as enchanting in the 1964 rendition of the R&H Cinderella.

Don Heitgerd was my theatre teacher and faculty advisor in college! He was a lovely person and had a beautiful voice! RIP, Don.

[@fanofmusicals]

Did he ever talk about making Cinderella?

[@theinspiredgardener6434]

My favorite scene from Cinderella, I love Don’s voice and he’s handsome too 😬

[@HauntFreak13]

Oh man I would’ve had the biggest crush on him lol

[@ryangreen2469]

When I was a kid - 6 in 1965 I was sitting in front of the floor console TV screen and when that girl popped in front of the camera at the end it scared the crap out of me. LOL !!! Love the Renaissance dance that goes with the music.

[@maps_cat8380]

I remember this I was 10 watched it every time it was on......boomers rock.

[@michellecalling]

I love this version of Cinderella especially the dance number to "The Prince is Giving a Ball". There's such a special glee to it. It really takes me back to when I first saw it in 1965 as a 6-year-old little girl. I was sick with the mumps and my dad put me in the den and rolled the TV in, rabbit ears and all so that I could watch the show. Back then we only had a black & white TV, but I loved the show so much that color really didn't matter especially with a child's imagination. I believe that CBS ran it again in 1966 as well. Of course, as a dreamy-eyed 7-year-old, I wasn't going to miss it. And now as a 63-year-old little girl reaching her Social Security years, I still watch it with that same sense of anticipation and glee.

[@sChick-vy3vi]

I've had this song stuck in my head for days! Thanks for helping me get my fix 😁

I am a member of #Bestofbroadway and re doing this for our review this year and I love this

[@darkhoarse820]

That's my mother at 1:33 and she became a neater girl for sure. A few years ago, I bought her a wooden fish as a joke for her birthday.

[@midgesherwood2685]

How did it go, Sir?

[@darkhoarse820]

[@Legnerps]

I think the prince would have chosen your mother she's a lot prettier than Leslie what's her name

[@PCHGWHS]

She's Beautiful 💜

[@noteveharrington]

I was obsessed with this Cinderella when I was a little girl!

[@macbethp]

thanks for posting this! I remember seeing it on tv in the 60's, the little kid saying "Herman?" "Yes, Herman!" "Sidney?" "Sidney!" and the girl saying "and me, I'm in the 7th grade".

I just remember memorizing the names....

[@cj-seejay-cj-seejay]

To the woman at 1:38 who says "I wish I'd been a sweeter girl"... what's YOUR story???

[@darkhoarse820]

I asked my mother (she's the one at 1:33). She said that she forgets her name, but she was older (my mother is 82) and very sweet. She said that with a laugh.

[@emilycurtis4398]

My head canon is that "sweeter girl" is bff's with the evil stepsisters. So much shade with the wine glass.

[@frankz3595]

3:04 Get outta here miss, you’re scaring me…

[@codymiller6172]

Is it me, or is that Kim MacAfee’s BFF from the “Bye Bye, Birdie” movie?

[@sChick-vy3vi]

You are absolutely right, I knew that she was familiar, thank you!!

[@josephcook6442]

From Telephone Hour? Shows she's type-cast. Glad her talent has improved xD

[@n.y.174]

I haven't seen this since I was like 7! 😊

[@jeremiahfry5933]

I like how the wicked stepmother & the evil stepsisters think cinderella is a nobody & her fairy godmother sends her 2 the ball with a beautiful dress & glass slippers

[@cyanic29]

We had a play over this I had to be the guy that says Our daughters looking dreamy eyed

[@TGHQspocky]

I played Lionel (the royal herald dude) in hs, this song was very fun to do

[@brockputnam8484]

I'd like to see the original production's take on this number. The herald was played by Seymour Penzner - whose stage name was Robert Penn. I got to work with him at McCarter back in 1971. A VERY affable fellow!

[@DarksladeDiaries]

One of the earliest and most disturbing jump scares in Television. 3:03

[@cellytron]

I like the random kid who just follows the herald around to be a jerk

[@cosgirl22]

My dishwasher plays this when the cycle is done and I start singing this every time lol
