Under the Sea- The Little Mermaid A Friend Like Me- Aladdin Colors of the Wind- Pocahontas Be Our Guest- Beauty and the Beast Go the Distance- Hercules Part of Your World- The Little Mermaid Beauty and the Beast- Beauty and the Beast A Whole New World- Aladdin Alan Menken is one of the best people ever
He definitely doesn't look like He wanted to be there. These are works of genius. Thank you Alan Menken for stirring our hearts with your beautiful music.
Disney will never be the same without you Alan composing the songs for their new Disney Movies. Other composers from new Disney Movies will never match their music as Alan's, because this man has been composing music a lot harder to match each scenery and emotions of each Disney Movie into perfection. Thank you Alan, for making our youth amazing with your creation of music. :)
A lot of childhood memories just came back. Wow what an amazing man he is to bring me such joy lol. Love growing up in the 90's with these amazing movies!!
After almost 20 years I'm still listening to the same songs and they still move me. It is incredible how soundtracks were as important as the motion picture itself. So many memories and lessons I learned. I still treasure them in my heart.
Love his voice and the way he sings, maybe he's not always perfectly on tune but I love the fact that it's him singing the songs. And the bonus tracks on the Beauty and the Beast album (the demos for the 2017 version) are simply amazing, I can't stop listening to them.
Alan Menken still has it. From the "the little mermaid" success has it only been up for him and he still has the composer rytm which we all love. Even if Disney´s animations has changed from 2D to 3D films is it still one thing that has not changed and that is Alan Menkans wonderful music. I personally hope he wil continue working on Disney and the future films, his music does never get boring to listen. If it were not for Alan would we never get these wonderful movies, so a big thanks for him.
Musical genius :) I'm tearing up right now thinking of Howard, I never knew him, but those lyrics he wrote really hit home for me. This was beautiful. Thank you Alan Menken for composing some of the most gorgeous music I've ever heard.
Alan, your contribution to the world is simply undescribable. you've influenced millions, and your music will live for countless generations. i know it cause i'm gonna make sure of it myself - i'm 20 and i already know that my kids are gonna grow up watching all the disney classics i grew up on, containing your beautiful, immortal music. you're a legend, thank you for everything
Alan Menken is a musical genius with no doubt, he really should get more credit considering he has the most Oscars out of any other living person! All of my favourite Disney songs happen to be composed by him and it's no wonder why and he has a lovely singing voice to listen to!
Mr. Alan Menken, you, sir, are a musical genius. Thank you for crafting beautiful masterpieces. You and Walt Disney have given priceless gifts to the world, and they will forever be cherished for generations to come.
He's my musical inspiration! His music makes me feel so much emotion and while he's singing he closes his eyes and all his passion for the music shines through! It's all so magical!!!
Thank you Alan Menken, you colored background color of my life. My childhood is full of Disney and i started to love musical because of YOU!!!! i am speechless with all your precious songs. What is your inspiration? amazing
When Be Our Guest came up, I had a smile from ear to ear. Alan Menken, you will be forever cherished and respected for what you have done for millions and millions of adults and children alike.
Alan Menken is the best composer who ever lived. He is someone who is really able to change the world with his songs, he changed my why of living life with his songs. Thank You Alan! :)
omg this video just gave me flashbacks of my childhood. Youre amazing Mr. Menken. You have given me beautiful memories and dreams that I will cherish forever
I find it interesting how his creations starts this way and gets translated to a movie. I think we all know music can make or break a movie. Through his inspirational musical talent, he provides the emotional, rhythmic, and excitement of those movies. Some movies have decent music but it takes something special to push the limits of creativity, to make a movie you can remember the music to, by name alone.
Dear Alan, I would like to thank you for introducing me to dream with your wonderful songs. I love your music and not exaggerating when I say that you are the best composer in the world! With all my heart: thank you!
Alan Menkin - the person who single-handily saved Disney. You always have been and always will be my hero - thank you for three decades of incredible music.
Thank you sir, for my childhood. Now that I'm older, I can truly appreciate the hard work & dedication you put into getting each note and lyric perfect for every movie. You're truly an inspiration(:
Oh yeah! was this great. It gives me a chill to think Alan at the piano singing is how originally the Disney team heard these songs and now I had a chance to hear(and see it) in the same way
You are incredible Mr. Menken. I am a 12 year piano and guitar player because I was inspired to make music as a child listening to your songs. Thank you for changing my life.
How many other people, in the world today, can sit at a piano and sing eight songs that they have written themself, that are instantly recognisable, and that have captivated, made laugh and made cry, millions of people world wide... Mr. Menken, you are a legend.
Living legend.
Thank you for making my childhood wonderful =)
It's impossible to doubt this man's piano talent, but he actually has a pretty good singing voice as well :D
