The audio clip showcases her incredible singing chops as she absolutely nails the hit track from the original 1989 animated film.
“OMG y’all you can now listen now to the full ‘Part of Your World,’ performed by me from Disney’s The Little Mermaid on Spotify (link in bio). Only one month left until the movie,” Halle excitedly captioned the post.
Fans went absolutely wild over the preview.
The version that Halle shared on Instagram was just a snippet of the full track, but many fans hopped over to Spotify to listen to the entire song. They immediately started sharing their excitement with the 23-year-old actress.
“Halle, please. These vocals! I just wanted to have a normal Wednesday, but now I’ll be listening to this on repeat,” one person gushed.

Another addressed the controversy about the decision to cast a Black actress in the role of Ariel. “So glad they switched it up,” the person wrote. “Princesses are to be in every color, different shapes and sizes. Congratulations, Halle. Can’t wait to take my kids to see it when it comes out.”
