Hello everybody! I got to thinking about the soundtracks to the DP films the other দিন and decided to write up a তালিকা of my favorites. সঙ্গীত has been a big part of my life, and as a result I have a big soft spot for the DP scores and songs. I find that how good a movie's soundtrack is often has a bigger influence on how much I like the film than it would for most other people. There are definitely some noticeable similarities between my পছন্দ DP soundtracks তালিকা and পছন্দ DP চলচ্চিত্র list, although they aren't exactly the same.
11. Tangled
6th on পছন্দ DP films list
With a five মহাকাশ difference in comparison to my পছন্দ DP films list, Tangled is one of the few films that doesn't follow my trend of enjoying films with good soundtracks. While it's a really fun movie, the soundtrack just doesn't stand out to me. I only really like two of the songs, and I only প্রণয় one of the scores. It certainly doesn't help that I'm not a অনুরাগী of Mandy Moore's গান গাওয়া voice. Overall, this soundtrack doesn't do much for the film in my opinion.
Favorite song: Mother Knows Best (reprise)
পছন্দ score: Kingdom Dance
10. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
8th on পছন্দ DP films list
Unfortunately, I find this soundtrack to be very dated, and the fact that the sound isn't as crisp and clear as the আরো সাম্প্রতিক soundtracks doesn't do it any favors. I do enjoy Adriana Caselotti's voice, but I prefer some of the other princesses' voices, and while the dwarfs are funny they aren't the best singers. This soundtrack was wonderful in its time, but its time has now passed.
Favorite song: Some দিন My Prince Will Come
পছন্দ score: I've Been Tricked
9. Cinderella
11th on পছন্দ DP films list
Like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, this soundtrack is a little dated in my eyes. It has held up better, but it's still not as good as some of the আরো সাম্প্রতিক soundtracks. I adore Ilene Woods' voice, but the mice are horrendous and really drag this soundtrack down. I enjoy almost all of the songs though, so that boosts it a little higher than the পূর্ববর্তি two soundtracks.
Favorite song: So This Is Love
পছন্দ score: Where Did I Put That Thing?
8. Aladdin
10th on পছন্দ DP films list
Aladdin has a plethora of really fun and enjoyable songs, but the score is আরো mediocre. I don't find it particularly memorable. I'm also not a huge অনুরাগী of Lea Salonga's voice (I think she's much better in Mulan), but she only has one song so it doesn't affect my opinion of the সামগ্রিক soundtrack much.
Favorite song: Prince Ali
পছন্দ score: Marketplace
7. Pocahontas
9th on পছন্দ DP films list
Pocahontas is often lauded for having an underappreciated soundtrack, and while I agree I just prefer the other DP soundtracks more. It has some of my পছন্দ songs of any DP movie, and Judy Kuhn is phenomenal as Pocahontas, but the score is আরো lacking. It also has a couple songs that I'm really not a অনুরাগী of, like Mine, Mine, Mine.
Favorite song: রঙ of the Wind
পছন্দ score: Farewell
6. The Little Mermaid
4th on পছন্দ DP films list
This soundtrack definitely deserved the Oscars it won. It's pretty amazing - the songs are fun, the soundtrack fits very well with the tone of the movie, and Jodi Benson plays Ariel quite nicely. Unfortunately, her voice is one of my least পছন্দ of the ডিজনি Princesses, which drags this soundtrack down. This soundtrack also doesn't give me chills the way my শীর্ষ five do.
Favorite song: Part of Your World
পছন্দ score: Tour of the Kingdom
5. Mulan
5th on পছন্দ DP films list
So, funny story: before I started লেখা this প্রবন্ধ I had a tentative তালিকা in which Mulan was ranked seventh. As I wrote this প্রবন্ধ I listened to parts of each soundtrack in order to refresh my memory. When I started listening to Mulan's, I was floored. I had completely forgotten how utterly amazing this soundtrack is. It is so beautiful with its Chinese influences, and all of the songs are enjoyable. Lea Salonga may not have my পছন্দ voice, but she does well as Mulan, and honestly the rest of the soundtrack is so good that I don't really care. This soundtrack gives me chills.
Favorite song: I'll Make a Man Out of You
পছন্দ score: Mulan's Decision (synthesizer version) aka Short Hair
4. Sleeping Beauty
3rd on পছন্দ DP films list
Although this soundtrack is old, it has a sense of timelessness that Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Cinderella don't. I'm not sure if that's because I loved this movie as a kid অথবা if it's because the সঙ্গীত as adapted from Tchaikovsky's beautiful ballet, but regardless I can listen to this soundtrack over and over again and never get tired of it. Not to mention that Mary Costa has the most beautiful গান গাওয়া voice of all the ডিজনি Princesses. She sounds like an angel. I প্রণয় her voice আরো than words can describe.
Favorite song: I Wonder
পছন্দ score: A Cottage in the Woods
3. Beauty and the Beast
1st on পছন্দ DP films list
Simply put, I adore this soundtrack. The songs are all amazing, the singers are phenomenal, and the score can give me chills and even make me cry. I প্রণয় this soundtrack almost as much as I প্রণয় the film itself, but there are a couple other DP soundtracks that I প্রণয় even more.
Favorite song: Belle (reprise)
পছন্দ score: Prologue
2. The Princess and the Frog
2nd on পছন্দ DP films list
This soundtrack is incredibly underrated. I প্রণয় jazz, so the সঙ্গীত to this film just makes me want to get up and dance. Every single song in this film is fun, Anika Noni Rose has the most powerful gorgeous voice, and the score adds the perfect touch of enchantment. I can't help but tap my foot along to the সঙ্গীত in this movie. It's so fun and so amazing!
Favorite song: Almost There
পছন্দ score: This Is Gonna Be Good
1. Brave
7th on পছন্দ DP films list
It's kind of funny that both my least পছন্দ and পছন্দ soundtracks have the biggest differences from their respective positions on my পছন্দ DP films list, but there আপনি have it. Brave may not be the best ডিজনি Princess film, but my god the soundtrack is phenomenal. Granted, I grew up with Scottish and other folk music, so I might be a little biased, but everything about this soundtrack is perfect in my opinion. I could run around গান গাওয়া its songs at the শীর্ষ of my lungs. I could listen to it on repeat. I will never get tired of this music. Julie Fowlis has such a beautiful, perfect voice for the songs and the score has that wonderful Scottish flavor sprinkled throughout. Nearly every piece of সঙ্গীত in this movie has the capacity to give me chills. Do yourself a favor and go listen to this soundtrack, আপনি might be surprised how awesome it is.
Favorite song: Noble Maiden Fair (A Mhaighdean Bhan Uasal)
পছন্দ score: I can't pick one so here are my three পছন্দ - Fate and Destiny, I Am Merida, and We've Both Changed
Apologies for the lack of pictures in this article. I'm feeling lazy today :P
