Top 10: Disney Songs

There were several limits that I imposed in choosing my top songs in this category. I had to make them because I LOVE Disney movies and Disney songs. My first lists were way too long and ridiculous. I tried to include some songs from older movies and lesser known movies but that fell to the wayside while I was considering songs. I tended to pick songs that are fun to sing along to, and I always do (as friends and family can testify!)The final tally is in no particular order as I had a difficult enough time narrowing it down at all. :) Enjoy.

Guidelines:

A. Only music from Disney Animated Classics is eligible, meaning no songs from live action movies like Mary Poppins or Bedknobs and Broomsticks or Pete's Dragon. This also eliminates the Spectrum Song, which I have no idea where it comes from but it's on one of my Disney CDs.

B. Only 1 song from a movie can make the list. This dramatically changes my top ten songs because there are many songs I love from movies like Lion King, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast and Little Mermaid. I chose my favorite song from each movie.

1. A Whole New World from Aladdin

For Katie and new adventures:
"A whole new world, every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue, every moment red letter"



2. Belle from Beauty and the Beast

"With a dreamy far off look, and her nose stuck in a book
What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle"



3. When I See an Elephant Fly from Dumbo

"I heard a fireside chat, I saw a baseball bat
And I just laughed til I thought I'd die
But I'll be done see'n about everything
When I see an elephant fly"



4. I Won't Say (I'm in Love) from Hercules

"You swoon, you sigh
Why deny it? Uh-oh"

"At least out loud, I won't say I'm in love"



5. He's a Tramp from Lady and the Tramp

"If he's a tramp, he's a good one
And I wish that I could travel his way"



6. I Just Can't Wait to be King from Lion King

"No one saying do this."
"Now when I said that-"
"No one saying be there."
"What I meant was-"
"No one saying stop that."
"Look, what you don't realize-"
"No one saying see here."
"Now see here!"



7. Part of Your World from Little Mermaid

"Betcha on land, they understand
Bet they don't reprimand their daughters
Bright young women, sick of swimming
Ready to stand"



8. Why Should I Worry? from Oliver and Company

"Why should I worry? Why should I care?
I may not have a dime, but I've got street savoir faire"



9. Colors of the Wind from Pocahontas

"You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew"



10. Not in Nottingham from Robin Hood

"Sometimes ups out number the downs
But not in Nottingham"
