Give this a listen, sounds like she has already recorded the song for happily ever after.

and as an added note, this was the song from Hong Kong Disneyland’s Happily Ever After Celebration. It is the same song obviously it will be tweaked a bit and composed different than an Asian pop version but just from hearing the preview the parks blog dropped last week you can hear a lot of the same lyrics.
