Alternatively, it could just be an effect of the song's compression of space-time in the visual medium - suddenly bursting out into song is not a "realistic" storytelling method, after all, but very effective for compressing the necessary expression of emotions into a much shorter span of time.

Also, both times I watched the movie I nearly teared up at that part of Tempest's backstory and song (though the second time, a kid sitting next to me was kind enough to sneeze [thankfully not on me or my food!], which snapped me out of it).
