  Under the Sea - Squirrel Nut Zippers

There is a lot of controversy surrounding the recording of Under the Sea by the swing band from North Carolina, SQUIRREL NUT ZIPPERS. Apparently, the Squirrels recorded the track for the release of The Little Mermaid on DVD in 1999. Disney was in the middle of purchasing Mammoth Records, the band's label, both all parties involved seem to have a different idea of what should happen with the song.

To make a long story short, the song got shelved and never saw the light of day until 2002 when it was released on the band's greatest hits album.
