Best Disney soundtrack, but nothing on Nightmare Before Christmas (which originally wasn't Disney.) That movie is a triumph of 3 artistes. Hercules definitely has the best villain, hero and love interest.
This style of animation is so beautiful and allows for an incredible amount of visual expression. It's kinda sad when they do all the remakes and totally lose that beautiful aspect of it.
"Remake" is code for letting far less qualified, untalented politically motivated hacks try and capitalize off far more talented, creatively motivated people.
I actually noticed that Disney's Renaissance movie's song lyrics are simple, but at the same time very direct. It's brilliant execution with a simple storyline. I'd love to have this again. One that doesn't look into politics and producers caring about their self-image and avoiding political "errors", making snowflakes out of the new generation.
Fun fact: The muses were originally not gonna be in this song which had already been animated until screenings proved them to be popular so they started adding them in more of the film. The muses only had one song on the movie originally. This song was on the verge of being cut but the animator’s were asked to add the muses to the song which meant they had to reanimate the entire scene but it saved the song and thank goodness for that! Can’t imagine it without their background vocals.
It's very understandable how she is, and I honestly relate to her so much more than when I was 7 and listened to this. It's also why she's one of my favorite Disney princesses. She struggles to accept love/intimacy even if she wants it, she struggles to tell if it is a genuine connection (with Hercules) or not, and overall is very unique and honestly one of the best Disney princesses along with Mulan IMO.
@@MidnightPanikneither is Mulan. Half of the Princesses aren't in technical term. Cinderella was considered a princess yet she never married in the first film.
Anyone else really feeling the lyrics rn? I always loved this song as a kid but dang, I’m really deep in unrequited love and it’s hitting different now I’m older
If there's a prize for rotten judgement, I guess I've already won that No man is worth the aggravation That's ancient history, been there, done that Who d'you think you're kidding He's the earth and heaven to you Try to keep it hidden, Honey we can see right through you Girl you can't conceal it We know how you're feeling Who you thinking of No chance no way I won't say it, no no (You swoon you sigh why deny it oh oh) It's too cliche I won't say I'm in love I thought my heart had learned its lesson It feels so good when you start out My head is screaming "Get a grip girl Unless you're dying to cry your heart out Girl you can't deny it Who you are is how you're feeling Baby we're not buying Hon we saw you hit the ceiling Face it like a grown-up When you gonna own up that you got got got it bad No chance no way I won't say it, no no (Give up, give in, check the grin you're in love) This scene won't play I won't say I'm in love (We'll do it until you admit you're in love) You're way off base I won't say it Get off my case I won't say it (Girl don't be proud it's okay you're in love) At least out loud I won't say I'm in love
Sorry just to correct one line, (We'll do it until you admit you're in love). This is incorrect. It's actually, (you're doing flips, read our lips you're in love)
1:41 Fun fact: When the muses are taking the form of marble busts, look closely at the way they’re arranged. There are five busts, they’re all singing, and the second one in from the left side is broken and tilted to one side. This is an homage to the five singing bust in the classic Disney ride, “The Haunted Mansion”.
Nowadays that's actually very relatable song for me. I've got a crush on a guy and at first I was denying it. And gradually I accepted my feelings and I'm planning to confess. I'm glad that song exists as it helped me to calm down and feel someone in similar situation like me. One of the reasons I adore Disney's songs. I feel you Meg UPDATE: unfortunately, he rejected me 😅 but I'm not too sad, I still have this song with me lol
@@unihorn458 If you want to listen to some legit Tsundere songs with stundere lyrics, try listening to True Love, 7 Things, Disgusting, and Hot n’ Cold
i watched Hercules for the first time when I was 5 years old. I'm 19 now, and every year I come back to this song over and over again. everything about it is great, and the fact how relatable it becomes every year amazes me
What I will say is that Susan Egan is a very talented actress and singer, and it sucks that she has not received her much-deserved recognition. She ought to be doing voice-acting on the regular
It's insane how many details you notice when you watch this over and over again. The muses are doing something slightly different even when acting together for their dance moves, but still together. Their expressions are slightly different as well, even when smiling. A computer would have made them perfectly in sync, which isn't what you want.
Not me feeling this song after being heartbroken at my first situationship so now I'm falling in love again and WITH A GUY AGAIN. It's really funny how you've repeated to yourself that you'll never be a fool again and learn your lesson but your heart is so gullible and just wants to be true. Welp I can't just give it to just anyone 😭
Megara had to be the best of, one of the many On screen animated crushes of my childhood, but I’ll always find Megara to be the coolest Disney chick character. Forever my type 😪😪😪
Back in high school I was in 2 theatre productions, in one of the productions during rehearsals the girls would have this song playing while they sang when we all had some free time before rehearsals started and that's what got me to like this song and it's a pretty catchy song.
Literally the other day I just got the (hopefully) final colour put into my half sleeve Hercules tattoo 😭 that’s how committed I am to this film, nearly £400 because this film was why I wanna be an animator, and I found the best way to honour it on me, because this film genuinely gets me so happy every single time 😭 no matter the drama Disney as a corporation gets, the people in Disney, there’s always some people who genuinely want to tell beautiful story and I’ll always be thankful for that
I miss my wife for Natalie so much. I hope there's a heaven just for her and Grandma. She's not like my Grandma, but she's Natalie's grandma and she was a good woman, very good. And my foster father, who I believe to me was my real father. He was a good man and he didn't deserve to die the people. I hope you haven't exist. Just so they can be happy because they de done so much down here to help others
I think this is the only other romantic Disney song about where the singer is denying and then accepting their feelings - next to the hellfire. And yet, look at how big the contrast is, isn't it?
This song was me to the most accurate detail when I realised I had not just fallen for my boyfriend but fallen hard for him especially as I hadn't too long gotten out of a bad relationship. We been together 7 years now
the most realistically romantically relatable disney song (for me)
Fr tho
Where were you 9 years ago?
Litterally same!
FR
Going thru this rn, so painful but I relate to this song so much lol
Meg’s vocals are great on their own but the muses are definitely the highlight for me. The verses they sing just sound great.
Loved it ahahh
PEAK chorus work tbh. ❤
I remember Meg's voice being deeper back then. Lol They sound great!
Meg and the Muses all fully on point and this song kicks ass because of it
That’s because it’s Susan Egan aka Rose Quartz from Steven Universe
I am a millennial male that now feels comfortable saying I fucking love this song and Hercules has the best soundtrack hands down.
Hard to pick a favorite song! Almost I feel about The Sound of Music or Encanto
Good songs dont pick a demographic.
@@PRubin-rh4sr yeah dude no shit. It’s a fucking joke.
Straight up.
Best Disney soundtrack, but nothing on Nightmare Before Christmas (which originally wasn't Disney.) That movie is a triumph of 3 artistes.

Luckily I haven’t seen all the live action remakes
Good thing is you can pretend the remakes don't exist. I've been doing that with Aladdin.
@@alejandrowaizel3750 I didn’t find Aladdin to be that bad

I know the muses makes these songs so memorable
It would probably be more solemn.
Gonna need some sources on that
@@aymuhspunj check the Hercules Muses Medley video here on YT. Micheal Show one of the animators is in the comments mentioning all of this.

Meg technically isn’t a Disney princess
@@annabeth_chase45379 I know however I just like to consider her one lol
She technically should be one for saving Hercules but then again she doesn't have a side kick pet lol 😅
@@MidnightPanikneither is Mulan. Half of the Princesses aren't in technical term. Cinderella was considered a princess yet she never married in the first film.
@@annabeth_chase45379her love interest is a prince so she's closer to being a princess than Disney princesses like Mulan
This song didn't have to go so hard but I appreciate that it did.
😂😅 fr tho
I cant stop listening to this
Same
Same
Ur not alone I've watched this around 100 times in 2 days
Some of the best Disney songwriting
Haha Same Here.
Anyone else really feeling the lyrics rn? I always loved this song as a kid but dang, I’m really deep in unrequited love and it’s hitting different now I’m older
Still do
Any update Ciara?
Same here
we need updates
real talk
0:17 “No man is worth the aggravatiooon~”🥀🎶 Love how she sings that🖤
If there's a prize for rotten judgement,
I guess I've already won that
No man is worth the aggravation
That's ancient history, been there, done that
Who d'you think you're kidding
He's the earth and heaven to you
Try to keep it hidden,
Honey we can see right through you
Girl you can't conceal it
We know how you're feeling
Who you thinking of
No chance no way I won't say it, no no
(You swoon you sigh why deny it oh oh)
It's too cliche I won't say I'm in love
I thought my heart had learned its lesson
It feels so good when you start out
My head is screaming "Get a grip girl
Unless you're dying to cry your heart out
Girl you can't deny it
Who you are is how you're feeling
Baby we're not buying
Hon we saw you hit the ceiling
Face it like a grown-up
When you gonna own up that you got got got it bad
No chance no way I won't say it, no no
(Give up, give in, check the grin you're in love)
This scene won't play I won't say I'm in love
(We'll do it until you admit you're in love)
You're way off base I won't say it
Get off my case I won't say it
(Girl don't be proud it's okay you're in love)
At least out loud I won't say I'm in love
I just realized this was a day ago. Hiya! 😂

No, it's Colors of the Wind.

The fact this sounds good with the quietest simplest beat in the background and no autotune. Truly great singers.
Less is often more.
Back when disney could make movies both for kids and adults at the same time.
Take note, Frozen! You're practically just "Let's just make a fun movie for kids because kids are STUPID; they'll watch ANYTHING!!!"
@@artbytesiathis reads like it was posted 2013 when frozen just came out 😭 I was surprised to see '1d ago'

@@artbytesia I mean it sounds like you posted it right when frozen came out, but since it is written, I said "reads like" instead
@@Kami43644 Nope, it was just the other day.
But seriously, Frozen is a bad movie. The writing in it is so horrible.
Wow 10 years already!! Still best song
This movie came out in 97
What?
@@irisflores867probs when the vid came out
The song is actually 26 years old
Yes! 😁
I've always liked when Meg loses her balance (damn weak ankles) and grabs the hand of the Hercules statue.
Came here because this is how I feel today as a 30 year old adult. I relate girl
I’ll be 31 next week! I haven’t been in a serious relationship
The old Disney movies are always so funny and has tons of jokes, but Hercules has to have the most jokes in it then any other Disney movie
Why can’t Disney always be like this?
The Emperor’s New Groove begs to differ
@@jesuusch They’re both equally good
This is I guess one of Disney's best songs from the 1990s. Maybe from all time too. This song is currently stuck in my head.
This girl likes me ?
The statues are my classmates convincing me to admit I have a crush😂😂😂
after many years i still love this song 😍
Mount Rushmore of Disney tunes. Hercules on the whole is criminally underrated
Meg was serving the ENTIRE song. OH. MY. GOD.
What I will say is that Susan Egan is a very talented actress and singer, and it sucks that she has not received her much-deserved recognition. She ought to be doing voice-acting on the regular
One of my Favorite Disney songs! :D

Best Disney song of all time
How about make a man out of you from mulan?
Eye to eye from a goofy movie is up there
My favorite thing about this movie is the fact that they included women of all sizes in the muse circle :) my girl got the sass ;)
Not me feeling this song after being heartbroken at my first situationship so now I'm falling in love again and WITH A GUY AGAIN. It's really funny how you've repeated to yourself that you'll never be a fool again and learn your lesson but your heart is so gullible and just wants to be true.

Watching this again as an adult... The song hits differently
Megara had to be the best of, one of the many On screen animated crushes of my childhood, but I’ll always find Megara to be the coolest Disney chick character.
Forever my type 😪😪😪
Esmeralda rocks, but respect!
This slaps so incredibly hard for no reason!
The best song in the movie. Megara and the Muses slayed it.❤❤❤❤
this is definitely in my top 10 disney songs tbh
Still one of the best Disney songs ever made. 🥰
Amen 😁💃🏽
Back in high school I was in 2 theatre productions, in one of the productions during rehearsals the girls would have this song playing while they sang when we all had some free time before rehearsals started and that's what got me to like this song and it's a pretty catchy song.
I still love Meg. She was easy to love
My fave part is “check the queen she is in love” 🌝🤗❤️ her voice does something to my soul when she hits that note 🎵
Check the *grin*
1:58 that voice so beautiful 🔥🔥🔥
Song popped up in my dream last night so I had to wake up and listen to it
She's so beautiful.
This is to me, the most under rated Disney song.
2024 and its still a banger
i wish disney was still like this
I will forever sing my heart out to this song.. out of all Disney songs this one really hits 💕
"That's ancient history, been there, done that!"
In 2024 out of boredom with less than two weeks until Valentines Day! I’m almost 31, young single and a sucker for a love story!
My god why does this song hit hard on the romantic scale
This is honestly near masterpiece level
One of my crushes and still is top 10
Literally the other day I just got the (hopefully) final colour put into my half sleeve Hercules tattoo 😭 that’s how committed I am to this film, nearly £400 because this film was why I wanna be an animator, and I found the best way to honour it on me, because this film genuinely gets me so happy every single time 😭 no matter the drama Disney as a corporation gets, the people in Disney, there’s always some people who genuinely want to tell beautiful story and I’ll always be thankful for that
Thats so cool!
I haven’t been too happy with Disney
One of my top favorite Disney songs
This would definitely be me and my friends 😆
i just watched this movie for the first time last night and this song goes hard af
The muses MADE THIS SOUNDTRACK! Idc idc!😂❤
This was such an amazing movie and awesome song...because of quarantine I used to listen to the entire soundtrack
One of the best disney love songs!
Imagine a musical meg just her point of view and all that sarcasm with all the other characters
Does anyone else love the very short background singer in the video?
It's 2024 and I'm going to say it out loud "I'm still in love with this song"
My new bf has been listening to this on repeat hehe
He said he loved me after 2 days
This song and poor unfortunate souls is the most theater pilled performances in Disney!
This was the most relatable part of the film.
Me whenever I'm crushing on a new fictional character:
Still a bop in 2024
that "why deny it UH OH" was so funny
Fuck frozen this is peak Disney, nothing compares to Hercules
Aye not too much 😂
Debatable, but when it comes to classic animation, Hercules is the best one.
I miss my wife for Natalie so much. I hope there's a heaven just for her and Grandma. She's not like my Grandma, but she's Natalie's grandma and she was a good woman, very good. And my foster father, who I believe to me was my real father. He was a good man and he didn't deserve to die the people. I hope you haven't exist. Just so they can be happy because they de done so much down here to help others
Sorry for your loss.❤

They do?!
Meg was voiced by Susan Egan, Rose Quartz not so sure
+Eoghan Feighery yep Susan also voices Rose

Thank you! Finally a great HD video... not in a different language.
So glad this video was brought back from UA-cam purgatory!❤
I'm in dis era right now
Atleast out loud i wont say im inlove ❤
We need more female main character like her in today's Disney🥲🥲🥲
Me and meg have the same personalities

basically the song i heard at disney princess the concert at broward center for the performing center with my gf n her parents
2024?
Amazing ❤❤❤
Meg is such a unique Disney character - a heroine with actual flaws!
This song hits different when your an adult
If there's a prize for *dislocated hips* I guess I've already won that
I saw that vídeo too lol

This song is gonna inspire an unrequited love support group eventually

I would love for Susan Egan to sing this at her current Age, I really want to hear that. Her voice is so iconic
It's beautiful fr
I understand Meg now 😅
The most underrated Disney movie ever.
P.S. I was absolutely head over heels for Megara when I was like 11 years old.
