Today’s Random iTunes selection comes from an album of Disney Princess songs we bought for my daughter’s years ago.
It’s a pretty great album, featuring such songs as ‘A Whole New World,’ ‘Part of Your World,’ ‘Colors of the Wind,’ ‘Can You Feel the Love Tonight,’ and ‘Belle.’ I always thought it was weird that it didn’t include ‘Beauty and the Beast.’
Notice I mentioned only movies from the late 80s Disney animation resurgence and onward. I have a harder time getting into the Snow White, Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty songs. ‘Someday My Prince Will Come’ just doesn’t cut it in modern America. Not that Ariel is a feminist role model…
So this is love
So this is what makes life divine
I’m all aglow, (humming)
And now I know
The key to all heaven is mine
My heart has wings (humming)
And I can fly
I’ll touch every star in the sky
So this is the miracle that I’ve been dreaming of
(Cinderella humming)
(Prince humming)
So this is love
Yeah, I agree, the songs of Disney movies generally got much better than they were early on.
The songs in Cinderella a Twist in Time rock my world
