      Oliver and Company is STILL my favorite Disney movie till this day and Billie Joel's "Why Should I Worry" is such a catchy song. Both the song and movie don't get the love they deserve. It at least deserves an Honorable Mention. Makes me sad. :(

    I also believe that a criminally underrated song in a Disney movie is "I'm Still Here" (or Jim's Theme) from Treasure Planet. I know that the movie was released during a transitional period between their 2D and 3D eras and wasn't as well received, but having the Googoo Dolls as the guest musicians not only fit the mood of an angsty "growing up" story, but also fit the 2000's time period. For anyone in their teens during that period, even now the nostalgia hits pretty hard, in my opinion, though going hard as far as sound quality, it hits emotions.

    For me, the Bruno song was just a footnote in Encanto and Surface Pressure was the star. Also, I think Be Prepared should've at least got honorable mention - it's a great song with great imagery and lyrical scene chewing, but it also foreshadows Scar's fate when he tells the hyenas that they'll be rewarded when at last he is given his due "in justice deliciously square" - and they make a deliciously square meal out of him.

    In regards to Frozen II: I know that "Into the Unknown" was supposed to be the "Let it Go" of the movie, but I feel like "Show Yourself" also deserves more credit.

      @ThexImperfectionist Рік тому +2

      If you watch any of the behind the scenes content, or even the 6 ep documentary on disney+, it's pretty clear the whole movie was building to "Show Yourself". I think they intentionally waved "Into the Unknown" in people's faces during promos because they knew everyone would be looking for another "Let It Go" but "Show Yourself" is such a spoiler that they wanted to keep it a surprise. For whatever reason it seems like the press never really caught up but anecdotally everyone I know who saw the movie prefers Show Yourself. It also has quite a few things in common with Let It Go in terms of structure.

My dad used to sing to me always when i was little to either cheer me up or otherwise. And i will Never Forget it Rest in Peace Dad I Miss You.

    Fun fact. When "Friend Like Me" was written, they still had the concept of two Djinni in the movie, with the Djinn of the Lamp being a more neutral role who, in the end, has no qualms working for the evil Vizir... Which means it was, technically, written as a sort of villain song. And you can really hear it in the Ashman and Menken demo. But that villain song grit that makes it more akin to "Poor Unfortunate Souls" and "Be Prepared" than an amazing sidekick song like "Be Our Guest" is still present in the final version with Robin Williams... And that is a big part of what makes it go so hard...

Talking about killing his own brother, and nephew, and the hyenas goose stepping like a certain unliked group of people. When the lights went on behind Shenzi Banzai and Ed, showing us thousands more hyenas, if not hundreds more, that ultimately cemented Mufasa’s doom on an epic level.

    If I were you guys, I'd replace Let It Go with I'm Still Here from the underrated masterpiece, Treasure Planet. I mean, you can't deny the fact that John Rzenik and the Goo Goo Dolls did a really good job with that song. Not only did the song help show us the growing father and son-like friendship between Jim Hawkins and John Silver, but it also helped showcase Jim's inner struggles via flashbacks. Especially the final one when Jim's dad walks out on his whole family and that being the last time Jim ever saw his dad. That moment really hits home with a lot of people who suffered from parental abandonment like Jim had. And unlike Let It Go, I'm Still Here sends both a positive and inspiring message to pretty much everyone since it's all about finding your place in society, discovering your true self, knowing your worth, and not letting others put you down no matter what the circumstance is. What exactly does Let It Go tell us? Abandon your responsibilities, isolate yourself from the rest of the world, be selfish, and not give a crap about others who are suffering all because of you. How is that considered both a "positive and inspiring" moral again?

Hunchback of Notre Dame is underrated for being darker than most Disney movies, and I’m glad it’s receiving recognition. Almost the entire soundtrack is hauntingly beautiful and goes hard, especially with the chorus, such as in “Hellfire” and “Sanctuary.” It’s one of those movies you grow to fathom and appreciate more as you get older. A Goofy Movie is underrated, and boy, do I enjoy both of Powerline’s songs. Tevin Campbell did a fine job in this movie.👌🏻 If Powerline had a concert, I’d DEFINITELY go! The entire Tarzan soundtrack “didn’t have to go that hard.” Phil Collins did a spectacular job with the emotion and jungle feel in the background to the vocals in the songs. After watching this countdown, I’m convinced that Jennifer Hudson needs to play the main muse in the Hercules live action. 👍🏻 Ugh, I love Disney movies and especially their songs.😩😍

    The best Disney songs are definitely the ones structured around something solid, like how Poor Unfortunate Souls is structured as a Waltz, Friend like Me around Swing Jazz (especialy Benny Goodman's) and Hercules's tracks based on Gospel singing. As for me, the sonmg that absolutely slaps is According to Plan, from Corpse Bride. To this day I just can't resist the "And thats why everything, every last little thing, every single tiny microscopic little thing must go... according to plan!"

    You said the live-action and Pixar songs deserved their own lists; looking forward to seeing those as well!

    “Flotsam, Jetsam, now I’ve got her boys/
    The boss is on a rooooooooooll!!!”
    Yes. YES! OH GAWD YES!!!
    Probably THE signature Disney Villain song.
    “Be Prepared” is delightfully sinister, “Hellfire” is hauntingly monstrous, “Shiny” is singular in its unique style, but I think “Poor Unfortunate Souls” is the definitive example of why Disney villains have become so iconic and beloved:
    They show how fun being evil can be 😈👍

    Two Worlds was so influential to me that I used it as the theme for my wedding! ^_^

    121 really was a flex.
    My childhood was awesome just with these songs.

    Friends On The Other Side, perfectly fits in with Dr Facilier's character (and that of his creepy shadow too!)

    “Can you imagine a solo heartthrob covering this number?” As if Tevin Campbell wasn’t a heartthrob at that time?!?!

    no way you chose "zero to hero" over "the gospel truth" that s*t hit way harder in my opinion!

    Hellfire is something that I think has gotten a lot of love in the past few years honeslty I never thought much of the song until I was older and it’s a terrifying song but it’s amazing at the same time
