As some of anda might be able to tell, I have been in a very musical mood lately. Along those themes, I wanted to make 2 musik countdowns: 1 for Songs and 1 for Scores. I cinta Disney's music, especially from the team of Alan Menken & Howard Ashman. I almost never like covers of DP songs oleh disney Pop stars so unless otherwise mentioned, all versions here are the original ones from the film. Here are my rankings for favorit songs:

Honorary Mentions:
With A Smile & A Song - Snow White & The 7 Dwarfs (So positive and uplifting plus an excellent message.) "There's no use in grumbling When the raindrops come tumbling Remember, you're the one Who can fill the world with sunshine When anda smile and anda sing."
Dig A Little Deeper - The Princess & The Frog (So genuine and upbeat plus an excellent message.) "Don't matter what anda look like. Don't matter what anda wear. How many rings anda got on your finger, We don't care. Don't matter where anda come from. Don't even matter what anda are"

20. I'll Make A Man Out Of anda - Mulan
I cinta how this is such a great little masculine song thrown into a DP film! I think it was an excellent diverse song from the lovely lebih feminine songs. I think the lyrics are great and they often will get stuck in my head.


19. Poor Unfortunate Souls- The Little Mermaid
This has always been such a great villain song to me. I cinta the way Ursula delivers it as well as the specific words she chooses. (She reminds me a lot of my ex-Stepmom, especially when she sings this song.) This song really shows off how villainous and manipulative Ursula is.


18. Whistle While anda Work- Snow White & The 7 Dwarfs
I cinta how this song shows Snow White's positive and genuine nature. I have heard her described as "manipulative" but I don't see that at all, I think she's a very good and decent person who does not try to exploit others to get what she wants. (Her plea for help to the Dwarfs was simply that, a plea from a 14-ish? tahun old maiden who knew that was the safest place for her and she offered to do her part to stay.) Whenever I am cleaning myself, I always tend to hear this song. Work has to be done and it's best done with a positive attitude.


17. Almost There- The Princess & The Frog
I cinta Tiana's confidence in this song, towards her goal to open up her own restaurant. I love, respect and admire the fact that she doesn't just expect things to fall into her lap, she is willing to do the work to reach her goal. She doesn't let "trials and tribulations" bring her down because she is stronger than that and chooses not to be a victim. I also cinta the fact that she stands out in her town. She describes the people in New Orleans as being lebih laid back and easy going, as mentioned in the line "This old town can slow anda down, people taking the easy way But I know exactly where I'm going, I'm getting closer and closer every day." This determination and ambitious spirit is displayed beautifully in this song and I cinta the nod to her father in it as well.


16. Something There- Beauty & The Beast
I cinta how this song shows Belle & the beast starting to fall in love. It's so sweet and sincere. I think it also very accurately shows how true cinta plays out from a budding friendship. At some point anda just realize that there's "something there" that's lebih than friendship, the chemistry becomes undeniable. The initial judgments/perceptions are gone and a cinta has started to develop in it's place.


15. For The First Time In Forever Reprise - Frozen
It's been noted many times on this site but it's worth mentioning again, this song does such a beautiful job at tampilkan the contrast and dynamic between Elsa & Anna. Their voices blend beautifully together. This song gets stuck in my head often!


14. Belle - Beauty & The Beast
I cinta this entire song! I cinta all of the lyrics and I cinta how well it explains so much about Belle's character. The fact that she went through hardship, that she is misunderstood, that she finds solace in reading, that she has big dreams for herself, and that she is a classic beauty in her town yet doesn't use it to her advantage atau rely on it to exploit others. I even cinta all of the lyrics sung oleh various townspeople in it!


13. A Girl Worth Fighting For - Mulan
I cinta how flattering this song is! These men are marching off into war to face some cruel and merciless enemies and protect everyone in their country and the only thing they hope for in return is to find a girl, a love, who makes it all worth it. Some say this song is not romantic at all but I completely disagree. Although I am a woman, I think this song coming from men and their point of view is incredibly romantic. They are willing to face almost certain death with the hopes that a woman will cinta them, appreciate them and respect them for all of their hard work and effort to keep them going. Plus, what they ask for is no where near unreasonable (specific beauty traits, appreciation of battle scars, cooks well, praise and adoration and laughs at his jokes). They also don't just want a girl oleh force atau circumstance, they want to impress and woo her. I love, appreciate and respect this song. I also appreciate and respect the horrible things that lots of males willingly choose to face as well as their uncanny protection and accommodation for females and children (usually strangers) so that they don't have to deal with the "ugly work". I also cinta that the song ends abruptly with the reality of exactly why it is these men need these kinds of hopes, for the horrible things they do face and deal with. Catchy too.


12. Part Of Your World/Reprise - The Little Mermaid
I cinta how beautiful and emotional Ariel's voice is in this. It's kind of heartbreaking for me. She sounds so sincere, so passionate with such longing. I think this song is just gorgeous, musically and vocally. This scene/song usually makes me cry because of Ariel's conviction and how gorgeous the song is musically.


11. I Wonder - Sleeping Beauty
I cinta how gorgeous Aurora's voice sounds. I also cinta how this song represents Aurora's docile and innocent nature as well as her romantic and idealistic personality. She is so pure and graceful and I think it really comes through in this song. The only way she knows of finding cinta is the same way as the birds: Through song.


10. Let It Go - Frozen
Yes, I cinta this song. I think the musik is very beautiful and I cinta the actress' voice in it. I've never really liked the song "Reflection" from mulan but I'm pretty sure I cinta this song for the same reason others cinta that song. I think it's beautifully passionate and earnest, albeit not smartly written. As a song on it's own, I completely understand why it was such a big hit as it immediately stuck with me the first time I saw Frozen. As far as the film goes though, there are definite inconsistencies with the lyrics here and the film's story.


9. Listen With Your jantung - Pocahontas
I tend to try to find a balance between head and jantung but that aside, I cinta this song. I find it to be so incredibly soothing. The few lyrics that are here are beautiful as well.


8. If I Never Knew anda - Pocahontas
I don't know why, and maybe someone could clear this up for me, but I remember this song being in the movie and playing when Pocahontas goes to see John Smith while he is being held captive. That was when I watched in on VHS as a child though. Now when I see the movie on Blu-Ray, it's not played until the credits. I do cinta the version at the end with the credits though oleh Jon Secada and Shanice, I think it's done beautifully. Anyways, I always thought this was one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard in my life, especially lyrically. This song really shows the power and beauty of love; how fragile and precious it is. Definitely this song makes me cry every single time I hear it nowadays because it's so beautiful. Perhaps because I feel the same way about my husband. There's a saying that "It's better to have loved and lost then to have not known cinta at all" and I think this song embodies that perfectly. link


7. Belle Reprise - Beauty & The Beast
It's very short but I absolutely cinta and adore it. I can't get enough, it is stuck in my head all of the time. I cinta how it's distilled to the core of what Belle wants: Adventure away from here lebih than anything else. It reminds me of the song "We Gotta Get Out Of This Place" oleh The Animals. I cinta the concept behind this song.


6. So This Is Love
This stuck always stuck out the most to me from Cinderella, even as a child. It was so beautiful and romantic as well as so pure and innocent. I cinta the way it accurately resembles love. It accurately represents cinta to be transcending and heavenly. Definitely will always be a beautiful and heartwarming classic for me.


5. Mother Knows Best - Tangled
This song has been growing on me ever since the first time I heard it! I cinta it so much as I can really relate to it. I think this song perfectly captures the manipulation and deceit of Mother Gothel. I cinta how Mother Gothel plays the "Merchant of Doubt" oleh saying things like "One way atau another Something will go wrong, I swear" she uses the line "Me, I'm just your mother what do I know? I only bathed and changed and nursed you" tampilkan how ridiculously manipulative she is. None of that stuff means anything because that's her job yet she's trying to make Rapunzel feel indebted to her for being alive. Personally, this song reminds me of my actual mother and it really captures her villainous spirit (and she is similar to Mother Gothel) so I find this song to be brilliantly realistic and accurate.


4. A Whole New World - Aladdin
My all-time favorit disney duet! I have always loved this song since I first heard it as a little girl and still find it to be such a romantic and magical feeling song. I cinta the way it describes young cinta to be so exciting and full of adventure and mystery. I think it's so beautiful. This is also one of my favorit melati scenes where she finally stops being a shrew for a menit (until the song is over) and just lets herself be happy.


3. Honor To Us All - Mulan
I rank this so highly because I catch myself bernyanyi it all the time! I think it is so cute and catchy! I also cinta the dynamic it shows between mulan and her mother. I also cinta the "recipe for instant bride" and find it to be fairly accurate. I also cinta that it does mostly match up with what the men say they want from women. I just feel like women don't really understand men as well as they used to and I don't think enough mothers give their daughters honest and straight-forward saran despite what feelings it may trigger like they used to. I cinta that Mulan's mother does this for her in this song though. I have the highest respect and appreciation for good mothers and wives so I personally really respect and appreciate this song and the way it holds that role in such high esteem. I see children as the future so I think good parenting is absolutely prime and necessary; One of the most important jobs in society. I still value families as they are still the best environment for children growing up and I cinta how this song speaks to that.


2. Once Upon A Dream - Sleeping Beauty I cinta classical musik and I absolutely cinta Tchaikovsky! Ever since I was a little girl I always liked classical musik and I loved this song. It always feels like a dream, sweeping me off my feet and making me want to do Piqué turns etc. all over the room. It certainly sweeps me off my feet and I can definitely see why it swept Aurora off of hers as well. It embodies grace and beauty to me.


1. Part Of That World - The Little Mermaid Nostalgia, nostalgia. Not just for the film but for when I felt just like Ariel and I was "ready to know what the people know, ask them my pertanyaan and get some answers". I always wanted to explore and learn new things and have been very curious about other cultures. I think the concept behind this song is so beautiful and inspiring. I also think Ariel's voice is so powerful and feminine at the same time, sometimes it gives me angsa bumps. I adore Ariel's voice completely, it's so gorgeous. I think the musik behind the song is equally gorgeous. A timeless classic that I sing/listen to often.
