Threatening to kill yourself if your partner leaves isn't loving. Because the answer, apparently, is: "I'd be a corpse!"Īh well. There's a huge difference between saying: "Hey babe, you are my first and foremost everything and I'll be bummed if you go."

"I Won't Say (I'm in Love)" was written to replace a slower, more emotional ballad Menken had originally intended for Meg, entitled "I Can't Believe My Heart" the song was discarded because Meg's animator Ken Duncan felt that it did not complement her strong personality. Meanwhile, the Muses insist that she stop denying her feelings for him and embrace them instead.

Included on the film's soundtrack, the song is performed by American actress and singer Susan Egan in her role as Meg, the film's heroine and Hercules' love interest, while singers Cheryl Freeman, Lillias White, Vaneese Y. "I Won't Say (I'm in Love)" is a song written by composer Alan Menken and lyricist David Zippel for Walt Disney Pictures' 35th animated feature film Hercules (1997).
