It's been almost 20 years since The Little Mermaid first hit land, and to this day, you can still find fans who know all the words to "Under the Sea" and "Part of Your World."

Are these boys trying to be bigger than the Beatles?

The Jonas Brothers are releasing their third album, A Little Bit Longer on July 12, and already fans are beyond excited.
