The 30 best Disney songs
By Sandy C.
#10 “Kiss the Girl,” The Little Mermaid
Sung By: Samuel E. Wright
I Can See What’s Happening: Ariel and Prince Eric go on a romantic boat ride. Ariel is hoping Eric gives her a kiss to break the spell that makes her mute. With her voice, Eric will recognize her and know Ariel is the girl who saved him from drowning, the one he can’t stop thinking about.
Favorite Line: “Shalalalala my oh my, looks like the boy’s too shy, ain’t gonna kiss the girl. Shalalalala ain’t that sad, it’s such a shame, too bad, you’re gonna miss the girl.”
Why It’s Part of Our World: It’s a lovely song! “Kiss the Girl” is loved by all Disney fans, especially the hopeless romantics.
#9 “Colors of the Wind,” Pocahontas
Sung By: Judy Kuhn
I Can See What’s Happening: While offering John Smith a tour of the area, Pocahontas explains the importance of connecting with nature and taking in the beauty around.
Favorite Line: “The rainstorm and the river are my brothers, The heron and the otter are my friends, And we are all connected to each other, In a circle, in a hoop that never ends.”
Why It’s Part of Our World: When it comes to powerful ballads that help to make compelling statement, none come close to “Colors of the Wind.” The emotional ballad reminds listeners of the importance of respecting and appreciating nature – a message beautifully embraced in the song.
