Be Prepared
Part of Your World

I'm going to try to pick some of the slightly less popular options here, just for variety's sake.

Belle- Beauty and the Beast:

This song perfectly sets up our protagonist, and showcases her contrast with the town she lives in. Not only is it from my favorite Disney movie, but it also has an extremely charming broadway feel.

Once Upon a Dream - Sleeping Beauty

An adaptation of the classic ballet, it lyrically and musically captures the over-idealized fairy tale love between Princess Aurora and Prince Phillip.


Cruella DeVil- 101 Dalmatians

The simple, playful lyrics, coupled with a strangely nostolgic tune have kept this song identifiable and loved since the animated film was first in theaters.


Hellfire- The Hunchback of Notre Dame

I can't say enough good things about this song, one of the many stellar songs contained in this under-rated film. It both captures the old church pipe organ sound, while also giving a fantastic amount of insight into the character.

Some popular choices:

Gaston- Beauty and the Beast (though, honestly, I could place the entire soundtrack here.)

Be Prepared- The Lion King

When You Wish Upon a Star- Pinocchio

Under the Sea- The Little Mermaid

Chim Chim Cheree- Mary Poppins

So, so many more..... XD

:dizzy: Way too many favorites to pick from.

Aladdin - A Whole New World (this is one of my favorite love songs ever, not only because it's beautiful and makes you appreciate the wonder of it, but also because it uses harmony to perfection)

Aladdin and the King of Thieves - They're Finally Getting Married (this, I think, is actually funnier than any of the classic Aladdin songs you usually think of)
Out Of Thin Air (another excellent use of harmony, and it expresses Aladdin's inner struggle about his father better than any amount of dialogue, I think)

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh - Tigger's song (you know, the one that goes, "Oneofthemostwonderfulthings about Tiggers, isTigger'sawonderful thing! They're bouncy, flouncy, pouncy, trouncy, funfunfunfunfun!!" etc.)

The Little Mermaid - Under the Sea (one of the most wittily rhymed songs I've ever heard)

Beauty and the Beast - Something There That Wasn't There Before (or whatever it's called, which I like because it shows the progression of this love story, which is more realistic than most fairy tales)
Kill The Beast (you know, the one where Gaston's riling up the townsfolk; I find it rather epic and a bit frightening even to this day)

Brother Bear - No Way Out (one of the best, most emotional and moving songs out of any Disney movie I've seen; it was the perfect choice to use during Kenai's confession, displaying the emotions when we already know the particulars, so that the music and the visuals and what you know he's saying mingle together into one heartbreaking experience)
I'm On My Way (mainly because Koda sings part of it and it's incredibly cute to see the "brothers" draw closer through the course of this song, but it's also just a really nice, uplifting song)

Treasure Planet - I'm Still Here (tells the story and emotion so well and so effortlessly; when this song got going, that was the point where I knew I loved this movie)

Toy Story - You've Got a Friend in Me (while I don't normally go for country songs, this one has always stood out to me as a wonderful description of what true friendship is)

Toy Story 2 - When She Loved Me (T_T most heartbreaking song I've ever heard in a Disney movie; it even made Tom Hanks and Tim Allen cry!)

Monsters, Inc. - If I Didn't Have You (another really awesome song about friendship, a great depth of emotion masked by a whimsical exterior)

Bolt - I Thought I Lost You (a really uplifting friendship song, made even more powerful because it was sung by the voice actors for the two main characters)

Marry Poppins - uhhh, basically all of 'em ._.

...that's all I can think of for now.

1. "God Help the Outcasts", Hunchback of Notre Dame
Love this song, love the message... iffy about Esmeralda. :p Still, very pretty.

2. "Hellfire", Hunchback of Notre Dame
Hunchback of Notre Dame is my favorite classic Disney movie, have you guessed? :p Well, I often get a little yelled at for loving "the lust song" (Sorry! That's not why I like it, really!) I just think it's a beautiful, powerful and well put together song. Plus, I love the transition between "God help the Outcasts" and this one, with the monks chanting and all.
*just noticed the post by Cognative Gear*
Couldn't agree more. Awesome song.

3. "When Somebody Loves You", Toy Story 2
When I was younger, I would get out my favorite doll and watch this song with her. I'd cry and promise her I'd never stop loving her and that she'd always be alive to me. */sentimentality*

4. "Reflection", Mulan
Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me? You and me both, Mulan, you and me both... -_-

5. "Lesson Number One", Mulan 2
I didn't really like Mulan 2, but this song was fun. ^_^

6. "My Lullaby", Lion King 2
I LOVED Lion King 2. <3 This song is sung by Zera to Kovu, and basically tells of her plot to kill Simba. I love Disney villains. ^_^ Scar was my ultimate favorite, but unfortunately I didn't like "Be Prepared" as much.

7. "He is Not One of Us", Lion King 2
;_; I still love you, Kovu...
