Everyone else was making one, so I might as well, also!

15. Once Upon A Dream - Sleeping Beauty

The gleam in your eyes is so familair a gleam

This is a beautiful song, great lyrics, great melody, great background, great lyrics.....great everything, just no great enough to get past number 15 (have I said "great" enough times? :P)

14. Reflection - Mulan

Now I see that if I were truly to be myself, I would break my family's heart

I love this song. The lyrics completely express how Mulan feels and Lea Salonga sings it with such emotion.

13. Can You Feel the Love Tonight? - The
Lion King

Seeing through the night's uncertainties, love is where they are

This is the perfect love song. I'd want it played at my wedding, it's very romantic and it's just....beautiful.

12. I'll Make a Man Out of You - Mulan

Did they send me daughters when I asked for sons?

Lol...this song is so sexist that it makes it awesome. I wasn't offended by it though, and I'm a female :P The scene is freakin' epic, and the singer, talk about amazing.

11. I Won't Say I'm in Love - Hercules

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

This song is so realistic that it's overwhelming. Speaking of overwhelming, Meg seemed so overwhelmed by being in love, which she refuses to admit. Well, at least out loud she refuses to admit it.

10. Out There - The Hunchback of Notre Dame

All my life I've wondered how it feels to pass a day not above them, but part of them

Holy crap, this song is PHENOMENAL! It's kind of underrated. It's funny, because even though Frollo's undeniably evil, he's kind of right in this song. I mean, they were mean to Quasimodo, so this is one of the only scenarios where Frollo is actually right. Well, you can't really blame him for falling in love with Esme, either, I mean, look at her :P

9. Part of That World - The Little Mermaid

Wouldn't I love to explore that shore up above?

I loved this song since I was just a little kid, well, I guess that isn't really all that surprising, probably all little girls love this song. Again, this song expresses so much emotion and meaning, and probably a lot of people can relate to it, wanting something you know you can never have, I recognize that from somewhere D:

8. Beauty and the Beast - Beauty and the Beast

Tale as old as time, true as it can be

Again, another song that I'd consider playing at my future wedding. This song is slow and moving, but yet phenomenal at the same time. Very touching.

7. A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes - Cinderella

Whatever you wish for you keep

One of the things I like about this song is that it's so true, a dream actually is a wish your heart makes. It's the perfect way to start off the movie, because it's like you get to know Cinderella fully just by the first scene.

6. Baby of Mine - Dumbo

Rest your head close to my heart, never to part, baby of mine

Despite it being so depressing, I love this song. I listen to it whenever I'm sad, well, it's one of the songs I listen to when I'm sad.

5. A Whole New World - Aladdin

Tell me, Princess, now when did you last let your heart decide?

Again, another wedding song, well, not really. I LOVE this song, it's beautiful.

4. Hellfire - The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Why do her scolding eyes still scorch my soul?

Wow, talk about EPIC. The best villain song EVER. EPIC EPIC EPIC!!

3. Belle - Beauty and the Beast

Behind that fair facade, I'm afraid she's rather odd, what a puzzle to the rest of us this Belle

Many may disagree with how this song got so high on my list, but I love it. I don't know why, I just love it. It's a very good way to start off the movie. Maybe the reason why I love it is because Belle's town is just like mine, exactly the same everyday.

2. God Help the Outcasts - The Hunchback of Notre Dame

I thought we all were the children of God

This song is beautiful. I love how Esme's main song isn't about dreams coming true or Prince Charming or something, it's about a serious issue. Sometimes I just want to play this song for everybody on Earth, and see if our world becomes a better place.

1. You've Got a Friend in Me - Toy Story

Just remember what your old pal said; "Boy, you've got a friend in me"

Sorry to all you Pocahontas fans out there, but this song sooooo deserved those awards over "Colors of the Wind." This song is about loyalty and friendship, it's great, I love love love LOVE it! Lol, it's obvious that this song is my favorite Disney song

Persephone713, DreamyGal and 2 others like this

hindaa lol , i love ur list, it includes all of my top 15, but it's just that i would organize them in a different way.. LOVE IT <3

disney505218 I love your list! "You've got a Friend in me" is one of my favorite songs :)

LisaForde Nice

DreamyGal Awwww...Baby of Mine is the sweetest...makes me sad too though...actually, that entire movie makes me sad!

Persephone713 OH, you put " Baby of Mine" in there. That makes me cry. So sad little Dumbo cant be with his mother. I love Dumbo. Great songs. Disney has the Best songs all of them are so catchy. I cant think of one I dont like

onepiecefan59 Out there is such a powerful song and is one of my favs along with God help the Outcasts which mainly focuses on the religious rejections and abuse in the paris society

madisonsavanna @DreamyGal @Persephone713 Yeah, you know how I said Baby of Mine is a song I listen to when I'm sad? Well, it usually makes me more sad D:

nduns This is a very good list but if you're interested, here are my 15 favorites (One per film and in no particular order) I've Got a Dream Never Had a Friend Like Me Gaston Go the Distance Colors of the Wind Make a Man Out of You (It's so nice to see a girl who can look past the sexist theme of the song and accept the fact that it simply represents how men actually thought during that time period) Under the Sea Hellfire I Just Can't Wait to be King I Wanna Be Like You (Sorry, Bear Necessities, the less iconic one gets your spot) Why Should I Worry (Something tells me this one shouldn't be list-worthy, but I do find myself listening to it a LOT) A Boy Needs a Dog (Bet you've never heard of that one because it's from the Teacher's Pet movie, a film barely anyone, including fans of the show ever saw) Perfect World (This song is the one thing barely anyone remembers from Emperor's New Groove) Friends on the Other Side (Probably one of the few times a song has frequently changed its melody and still worked. Take that, Ruber's song!) No Strings (I dunno, there's just something about this one)

disneyworld007 I totally agree about the Belle song! I also love that song!

By the Book: Tarzan

posted by Swanpride

Yeah, after talking about the Jungle Book, this is the next logical step. It’s fairly obvious were the inspiration for the Tarzan book series came from. And to be honest: Between those two stories about a child which grew up in the jungle, Mowgli is definitely the better pick. If you ask me, the idea behind Tarzan is better than the stories themselves. An old idea in a crowd pleasing format, which is mostly notable due to its revolutionary marketing strategy. Tarzan is not just a book, it is a trademark (copyright is limited, trademark rights aren’t), and Burroughs did his very best to...

Disney Villains script-Yzma

[after falling into the alligator pit]
Yzma: Why do we even *have* that lever?

Yzma: Are you talking to that squirrel?
Kronk: I was a junior chipmunk, uh, and I had to be versed in all the woodland creatures.
[to squirrel]
Kronk: Please continue.
[squirrel talks to Kronk]
Yzma: [walking away] Why me? Why me? Why me? Why...?
Kronk: Hey, it doesn't always have to be about you. This poor little guy's had it rough. Seems a talking llama gave him a hard time the other day.
[Yzma rushes over to them]
Yzma: Oh, a talking llama? Do tell.
[squirrel whispers to Kronk]
Kronk: Uh, he doesn't really wanna...

Disney Villains script-Hades

posted by Pyjamarama

Hercules: You like making deals. Take me in Meg's place.
Hades: Hmm. The son of my hated rival trapped forever in a river of death.
Hercules: Going once...
Hades: Is there a downside to this?
Hercules: Going twice...
Hades: Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. You get her out. She goes, you stay.
[Hercules dives in to save Megara]
Hades: Oh, there's just one thing. You'll be dead before you can get to her. That's not a problem, is it?

Hades: How sentimental. You know, I haven't been this choked up since I got a hunk of moussaka caught in my throat.

Panic: "Hercules." Why does that name ring a bell?...

“Realistic” body image better portrayed through a fairy than a human?

posted by PiiXiiE

Now this is just my point of view, but I find it a little bit ironic that one of the most realistically portrayed Disney females comes in the shape of a pixie! When it comes to typical proportions, the average woman can more easily identify with a winged sprite?! I mean, not everybody has a beautiful hourglass figure! Having somebody who is a little bottom-heavy is comforting.

While Tinker Bell does have a super-skinny waist, she is the only Disney female I have seen whose lower body is not exactly proportionate to her upper body.
