Top 5 // Favourite Disney Songs (Take 10 Edition)

Today is the long awaited return of the ‘Top 5’ series! But, this time with a twist….. a top 10!

Yes I thought this decision was so tough that I just had to expand my decision to 10 Disney songs. So without further ado, here we go!

10. Friend Like Me – Aladdin

This song is at number 10 because to me its such an uplifting and theatrical tune! You just want to dance along and act like the genie!! Definitely a show-stopping number in Aladdin!

9. Something There – Beauty and the Beast

Sung by my favourite princess! I love something there because it shows the foundations of Belle’s love for the Beast which is truly special and this song is just adorable! I also love singing Belles part!

8. So This is Love – Cinderella

I think this is the most romantic song in the whole of Disney. It just has this vintage Hollywood vibe with stunning voices. It makes you dream about being swept off your feet by a Prince!

7. I See The Light – Tangled

An absolutely gorgeous song! So mellow, meaningful and easy listening! Again, shows the foundation of Flynn and Rapunzel’s relationship which is adorable!

6. Just Around The River Bend – Pocahontas 

Whenever this song pops up on my iPod I just have to play it! Such an exhilarating song with meaningful lyrics that make you think and can interpret in your own life! Also, Im obsessed with Judy Kuhn’s voice.

5. Stay Awake – Mary Poppins

Julie Andrews had to make an appearance at some point! Probably an unpopular choice from the Mary Poppins soundtrack but I love this song. Along with Julie’s incredibly soothing voice, this song is pure bliss! The lyrics and melody are so relaxing and this song never fails to relax me or send me to sleep!

4. The Second Star To the Right – Peter Pan

Being a huge Peter Pan fan, the opening credits to the film gives me butterflies! Such a beautiful melody, it sets the scene and sets the overall feel of the movie which I love when listening to it!

3. God Help The Outcasts – The Hunch Back of Notre Dame

This song really really moves me! Im not sure if its because of the religious imagery featured in the film or whether I kind of relate to the song but I just love singing it and listening to it and just being absorbed in the beauty of this song!

2. Santa Fe – Newsies

This tune! It is packed with emotion and drive and is incredible! Such a power ballad that deserves tonnes more recognition that it has.

1. Out There – Hunch Back of Notre Dame

I found y love of this song through the night time show in Disneyland Paris Disney Dreams where Quazimodo is singing this song climbing on the Disneyland castle with the stain glass windows in the background. I think what made it even more powerful for me was that because it was in French. Im not sure why, maybe because we all know this is how the song should be sung if the movie is accurate to the story? This is such an epic song and brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it!

I hope you enjoyed reading this! I’d love to know your top 10!

My Theatre Bucket List

Hey guys!

Okay so here we go….

1. Newsies

I am addicted to the soundtrack, have seen the movie and am head over heels for this musical. Its so uplifting and positive and to hear that flawless music live with amazing talent would be a dream come true!

2. Spring Awakening

I have watched this show on youtube and its so powerful and moving. I know just being there would make it a million times more special and would be an amazing thing to say ‘Ive saw Spring Awakening live!’

3. Heathers

Again, love the soundtrack to this musical! It takes you on an emotional journey and really makes you think. To physical see this would be incredible! Id be swept away with emotion!
