Howdjadoo! Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Hello! I was just curious what everyone's favourite Disney songs are. I really like the melody of When You Wish Upon a Star from Pinocchio. For lyrics I like Colors of the Wind from Pocahontas, and Circle of Life from The Lion King. I like All In The Golden Afternoon from Alice In Wonderland because it is just a happy song. And then I like A Whole New World and You've Got A Friend In Me. Oh, I just found out that Nightmare Before Christmas was made with Disney so I'll say What's This? too. Ahhhhhh, there's so many! I like these songs because they are optimistic and full of wonder. I couldn't think of a better diet for a child's heart and imagination. But I want to know what Disney songs I might have missed that are really good, because there are so many. So let me know your favorites and why! Thanks 1 Quote
EileenDances Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 My vote goes to To Be Human Again, from The Beauty and The Beast (of course due to its ballet implications ;) ). Quote
piano_player18 Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 I would have to say The Happy Working Song from Enchanted. Also, I've Got a Dream from Tangled. I also love all the music from the classics like The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast. (Note...all of these movies were done by the same composer. Alan Meiken) 1 Quote
Howdjadoo! Posted October 31, 2012 Author Posted October 31, 2012 Thanks, piano_player18. I never actually thought to take note of who composed some of the classics. I will check out more of Alan Meiken's music. Quote
Sarastro Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Pete's Dragon: I love you too, There's room for everyone, It's not easy, Candle in the water, Brazzle dazzle day. Mary Poppings: Just about anything. Bedknobs and broomsticks: Substituary locomotion, Portobello road... Quote
BenB Posted November 2, 2012 Posted November 2, 2012 Hellfire, from the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Accept no substitutes. Quote
Guest monique.bliss10 Posted December 13, 2012 Posted December 13, 2012 I like the theme of Little Mermaid because the melody is very nice and the lyrics as well. Also, Colors of the Wind of Pocahontas is so inspiring for me. It is really hard to choose at least one since Disney songs are really great but this two stands out for me. Quote
p7rv Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Anything from "Fantasia". Seriously, people. 2 Quote
TJS Posted December 18, 2012 Posted December 18, 2012 Anything from "Fantasia". Seriously, people. And Fantasia 2000. (The original has better animation as far as I'm concerned.) Quote
Guest Ravel's Hookers Posted December 18, 2012 Posted December 18, 2012 Unless I'm mistaken, I think Disney did actually compensate Stravinsky, even though the weren't required to. Quote
Austenite Posted December 18, 2012 Posted December 18, 2012 And since Stravinsky himself had ripped off lots of Russian folksongs, he couldn't have been that mad ;) . Quote
TJS Posted December 18, 2012 Posted December 18, 2012 I was wondering if someone was going to call pervy on that distinction.... Quote
violinboy1996 Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 Hmmm... I'd have to say Fantasia as well! ;) Quote
