I was just listening to a few Disney songs and it kind of hit me how there really is very few great songs in disney movies anymore that you will remember from the movie. If I name older Disney movies I am sure we can all list at least one well known song from it....
Lion King- circle of life
cinderella- a dream is a wish your heart makes
snow white - hi ho
aladdin - a whole new world
They are just off the top of my head and usually there was 2 or 3 brilliant songs in these films that were memorable. I don't think this happens anymore. Thinking of recent Disney movies:
Up - nope can't think of even one song that was in that movie
Wall-E- nope
Bolt - I can only think of that one with Miley cirus.john travolta, there may have been one other song but i don't even remember it.
cars - nope
monsters inc - nope
nemo- nope
Actually I see the trend mainly -appart from Bolt which I actually could rememeber 2 songs from, the rest are Pixar movies!
Is it just pixar that don't put songs in Disney movies anymore or at least memorable ones? They did with toy story 1 & 2.
I just miss when Disney films had a brilliant soundtrack and memorable songs, they made the films fantastic. Most of the films released in the past 5 years don't! The last Disney soundtrack that I thought worth buying was Enchanted, which did an amazing job on their movie music!
Does anyone else have any thoughts on this??
nemo- nope
I'm hoping this trend will change with films like "Princess and the Frog" and "Rapunzel" coming out soon! I agree though, Disney is known for such rich scores and wonderful songs. I'm glad they're bringing them back :)
I hope so too Luke!
