Reviews of the song are generally divided regarding its importance to the film:
Composed by Randy Newman , the song is a high-energy tribute to traditional New Orleans jazz.
Many critics and fans, such as those at DVDTalk, praise the song as a "perfect musical number" and an energetic standout that evokes the spirit of The Jungle Book's "The Bare Necessities".
"When We’re Human" is a Dixieland-style jazz number from Disney’s The Princess and the Frog (2009). The song features Prince Naveen, Tiana, and Louis the alligator sharing their personal aspirations for life after the frog curse is broken.
