My favorite (makes you cry) sound track from Disney is the "married life" sound track of the movie Up. So SAD!! I'm a grown man! Why am I crying!!! 😭 😭
@@ajbp95 Yes! I think that one is the most heart-wrenching piece in the series. Just thinking about the montage from Toy Story 2 is giving me the feels 😢
"Take something that's very strong... and kinda just... break it." If that's not life. Randy Newman has a gift for authenticity that I only found as I got a bit older.
Honestly, as a kid I wasn’t going “yes! He’s a real space ranger!” and being sad when he wasn’t, I was heartbroken that his worldview and sense of who he was was getting shattered.
@john_michael the music protrays that perfectly, especially if you think about it, the descending F augmentation when he’s falling kinda symbolizes his world view crashing down and accepting a new, sad, reality. Thanks for giving me that interpretation!! 😃
Randy Newman is the BEST at combining New Orleans blues and gospel harmonies with the orchestration of show tunes and classic pop songs. That combination is so recognizable, I always just think of it as Randy Newman chords.
Weird side note, if you like that style only with a little more of a prog element, The Dear Hunter does a TON of that exact mixture, New Orleans blues mixed with gospel harmonies and crazy math rock. Absolutely buck. Totes worth a listen.
its just fascinating how snarky and cynical his lyrical songs are, but I can only describe his scores as whimsical and playful, an idealistic old fashioned Americana feel about a country that is very lovely but probably never was.
Personally, I think the way the instrumentation of "Strange Things" in Toy Story is also worth looking at. The number of instruments and complexity of sounds builds every chorus.
You remind me of one of my music professors. Just the excitement of what he's hearing and explaining to us, theoretically, made it exciting to us to want to learn more. Love what you do, Charles.
The thing that is really amazing to me is how composers make such memorable songs for kids movies. Since Toy Story, for example is a movie that I grew up watching in my childhood and now as an adult, these movie themes are so nostalgic and sentimental and they make me tear up every time I hear them 🥲
I am beyond gratified to hear someone appreciate the genius of this composition and give it the analysis it deserves. Thank you so much for this. I've loved this song for years and years and I watched this video with a smile on my face.
Randy Newman always the most wild harmonizations that somehow don't feel out of place at all. For extra Randy Newman heartbreak, maybe look at "When She Loved Me", which was performed by Sarah McLachlan for Toy Story 2. Absolute gut punch
The most emotional Randy Newman song is "When she loved me" from Toy Story 2. Heat breaking. I'd love a breakdown of that one :) Randy and Thomas Newman are some of my favorite movie composers. Those guys write with their hearts and make you feel it.
I know NOTHING of pianos and piano chords and most of the terms youre using. But i enjoy watching you disect these songs. And your pure JOY and excitement for playing and the sounds. Idk how to explain it. Its cool hearing someone explain why/how a song works
Charles passion is contagious. I always go straight for the piano after his videos filled with new found will and joy to just play and explore the harmony progression presented. Thank you Charles!
Randy certainly knows A HELLUVA LOT about how to go around diminished chords. You can almost always hear plenty of them in all of his soundtracks, and it's awesome how he does it. My personal favourite is "That'll do Babe" with Peter Gabriel. It's a real tear jerker for me.
Not enough people talk about I Will Go Sailing No More. It's every bit as heartbreaking as When She Loved Me. Newman's music in these films is brilliant. He was the perfect person for these movies.
This part of the movie always gives me a lump in the throat and then goose bumps, partially because of the story and character development, but it wouldn't have the same impact without the music. Thanks for the break down. I will again have to watch this multiple times to fully catch everything you are pointing out.
Charles, just gotta say, you've really inspired me to get back into music theory. I've been active on an amateur level for many years, but haven't used theory since high school. Now I'm making circle of fifths on every piece of scrap paper I find, just to keep working on it, and I've started to make an arrangement of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas on piano. The way you describe and explain is really really helpful! So thank you.
That part at 13:51-14:12 with Charlie just going along with the song and play all the amazing chords just demonstrates how good the writing is and how good Charles is at demonstrating what makes it great
One of my favorite Disney songs ,or songs in general is "A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes " from Disney's 1950 Cinderella ... It feels so simple yet so sentimental ,or from the same movie "Sing Sweet Nightingale" .Ilene Woods had such a dreamy voice
the toy story song that breaks my heart every time is in the sequel, sung by Sarah McLachlan, titled "when somebody loved me". Gorgeous arrangement and performance by randy and Sarah.
Man, I'm early. Recently purchased the course bundle and super excited to get into it! Been a long time since I've taken piano lessons and you've totally sparked my love for the instrument again. Thanks a lot Charles! :)
I've always been a big fan of the key changes in You'll Be In My Heart from Tarzan. Starts in F major, then to D major for the chorus, back to F, back to D, then up to E for the climax. Really powerful and fun sound.
I've just discovered your channel, and I love your style Charles. You're not putting on a silly presenter voice, you're just being you, you're nerding out on things you love and its so refreshing to have the experience of watching your videos. I was a massive fan of Toy Story as a child and became a musician later on so have a wonderful appreciation for this whole video. Thank you so much for making this. New subscriber right here :)
Love how Charles can manage to explain a lot of this without much in-depth theory, just the logic of where some lines move and others stay the same to create specific feelings, and it makes perfect sense.
i'm so glad you made a video on this. the toy story soundtracks are music masterpieces and randy newman is just an absolute god! this track makes me sad whenever i hear it, and this is why buzz will forever be my favourite toy story character ever. this scene and this music.
Randy Newman is a lyrical, musical, and comedic genius. One of the first songs I learned on piano was his song “short people.” The Toy Story franchise would not be the same without him. Nobody is mentioning it, but I loved his song from the 4th movie “I can’t let you throw yourself away.”
Just realised the opening is yet another piece of music in the grand old history of The Avengers progression - fitting for Buzz trying to reconcile his identity as a quasi-superhero and his reality as a mass-produced plastic toy Fully, earnestly, and unreservedly LOVE this song
Those first three chords are a great example of what I’d call “rotating”, or changing the chords around the melody to make the melody note move place in the chord without actually changing. So that G note starts out as the 1 of the G, then becomes the 3 of the Eb, and then the 5 of the C.
Is it weird that the second I see any toy from Toy Story, “you got a friend in me” automatically plays in my head? Honestly, this song is definitely the one most stuck in my head, even though I’m not the biggest Toy Story fan.
Love this. This is one of the most beautiful songs, and despite being easy to appreciate, it's really really deep in terms of theory. Thanks so much for the break down!
That was an insane composition. The complexity of the piece & the use of chords as motifs in the song to create a sense of nostalgia from familiarity is mindblowing. Bravo Randy 👏
Man, when it changes to A flat and Newman sings, "But no! It can't be true!" my eyes well up with tears. It's so triumphant and full of new hope. It's easy to show characters experiencing emotions. It is far more difficult to make the audience experience the character's emotions. A lot of people I know say that Toy Story 2 is better than 1, but I can't choose between them. This intimate character focus is exactly why.
Man, this video gives me chills. This soundtrack defined the Disney sound, and Randy Newman is such an incredible musician. Awesome vid, I love geeking out with you! xD
Charles' Black Friday sale is a great deal. I highly recommend beginner & intermediate musicians grab it! I've been a piano teacher for over 20 years and students who take initiative to learn more on their own always advance faster.
I always thought the song "Strange Things" from Toy Story was such a good unique song, I could never figure out what genre I'd put it in but I really enjoy that one.
Definitely one of my favorites! It seems so underrated unfortunately, but I think it’s great with its symbolism of being replaced and what that feels like and/or sounds like!
I just bought the black friday sale a few days ago and I'm so glad I did! Learning so much and it's giving me so much work to do. So excited to be able to break down songs the way Charles does.
These videos are perfect to put on while doing dishes or laundry or something, you don't necessarily have to WATCH it to listen to all the sounds and ideas
I've always loved the sound of the monsters inc. soundtrack, it's probably the first jazz related thing I ever heard in my life. I especially love the scare floor track, fitts the theme of the film so well.
It has been 25 years since I saw this movie for the first time and this part still makes me so emotional. As a kid it made me sad that Buzz could not fly and I cried. But now as an adult you understand that for Buzz is just reality hitting you in the face. He discovers that his life is not what he thought it was. He doesn't know other life than being a space ranger and he literally falls in a place where he doesn't know what is purpose is anymore. It's heartbreaking. And the music is the cherry on top. What a masterpiece is this movie.
Randy's arrangements and orchestrations are like the platonic ideal of every piece of music he's ever composed. I don't understand how he does it, but he finds every piece that fits perfectly in every place, every time, and creates something truly profound.
Your videos have helped me so much in discovering the wonderful world of jazz and actually how it works. I now understand so much of how it works and I thank you!!
Charles, I know this isn't something you would usually do on your channel but do you think you could possibly do a video reacting to the Santa Clara Vanguard's 2018 performance titled "Babylon"? It's a very beautiful performance that is an abstract way of depicting the story of the tower of babel, hence the show title. The props are supposed to represent city buildings and skyscrapers. All the corps members are on the same big building (the tower of babel) and are struck down, forced to speak different languages. The beginning with the intense music and the screaming is representing the people unable to communicate. The drill shows this is as the guard and brass are separated. The two soloists on the props are like two people having a conversation. The big hit during the ballad and last movement represents the people coming together and understanding each other. The drill also conveys this as everyone is doing the same or reflecting the other half of the corps. One of the best designed shows ever!
I love the hsrmony here, i understand chord substitution and borrowed chords. I dont use it often with the type of metal i play. Every mode and even some techniques make me think in a different genre.

@@lordneeko Yes, Its so happy but also so sad 10/10
The song "When she loved me" from Toy Story 2 is a golden song that will have you crying. ✨️
That is my go-to when someone asks the saddest song I know.
I love this song!! Charles needs to break it down
It's a Sarah McLachlan song
Man, I LOVE that this song manages to be so sad while being in frickin' F MAJOR! 🤯
When I saw the video title I thought that was the song he meant haha. That one is brutal. Gets me everytime.
Now this gets me interested in an analysis of "You've got a friend in me" cause it's neat.
True
I would love to see When somebody loved me as well!
When I clicked on this video that is what I expected
@@ajbp95 Yes! I think that one is the most heart-wrenching piece in the series. Just thinking about the montage from Toy Story 2 is giving me the feels 😢
As an Italian, i recommend you the Riccardo Cocciante's version of the song, "Hai un amico in me".
We need a Sid score analysis! My parents always forced me to be like Andy -but I quietly wished I could be wild and loud like Sid, just to try it.
Wow, actually same here!! So cool to see that someone like you has something in common with someone like me 😅

Randy Newman is the BEST at combining New Orleans blues and gospel harmonies with the orchestration of show tunes and classic pop songs. That combination is so recognizable, I always just think of it as Randy Newman chords.
YES! This is a perfect description! They really are uniquely "Randy Newman" chords! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
And his way of adding rhythm is just second to none. The ease at which he combines everything and then adds great vocal melodies to top it off...

Personally, I think the way the instrumentation of "Strange Things" in Toy Story is also worth looking at. The number of instruments and complexity of sounds builds every chorus.
Underrated for sure
You can hear the chorus of Strange Things in the music of the Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters ride at Disneyland!
Randy Newman is a national treasure. Thanks for the in depth analysis of this beautiful piece.
You remind me of one of my music professors. Just the excitement of what he's hearing and explaining to us, theoretically, made it exciting to us to want to learn more. Love what you do, Charles.

I can only take so much of Randy's voice, but I could listen to him play piano all day.
Some good songs, but horrendous mong voice
Then I’d recommend some of his soundtrack stuff, Ragtime has some excellent piano work (such as the main theme and the piece “Newsreel”)
Oh my god. Instantly transported back to the 90's. Home Improvement is on TV. And the Toy Story sheet music sits on the family piano.
One of my favorite Disney songs ,or songs in general is "A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes " from Disney's 1950 Cinderella ... It feels so simple yet so sentimental ,or from the same movie "Sing Sweet Nightingale" .Ilene Woods had such a dreamy voice

Wonderful piece. The nostalgic feeling the Randy's music evokes is undeniable
this was and still is, and probably forever will be one of my favorite pixar songs. Thank you Randy Newman
I love how much passion you have!!! It’s so great to see
Randy Newman was this good from the start. His voicings, his lyrics, his melodies and harmony…. “In Germany Before the War” is case and point
The Pixar songs are absolutely and by a wide margin among his absolute worst works and are still incredible.
Your best video yet. Legitimately brought me to happy tears. You rode it like a roller-coaster, screaming with shared joy. Well done mate
Just realised the opening is yet another piece of music in the grand old history of The Avengers progression - fitting for Buzz trying to reconcile his identity as a quasi-superhero and his reality as a mass-produced plastic toy

I love the hsrmony here, i understand chord substitution and borrowed chords. I dont use it often with the type of metal i play. Every mode and even some techniques make me think in a different genre.
This song has a special place in my memory and to see it broken down like this is more than I could have ever wished for. Thank you Charles.
