2. “A Whole New World” Aladdin (1992)

Winner of the Oscar (once again) for Best Original Song in 1992 is another song with music by Alan Menken. The song is a love story of two people willing to share a whole new world….together with one and other. And though we can tell by it’s beginning that Jasmine has found out Prince Ali is in fact the boy Aladdin from the marketplace that dramatic irony adds to the feeling of love you get as they go on a magic carpet ride. Lea Salonga voices Jasmine as she did Mulan beautifully bringing heart and a sense of female wonder and trust in her partner that seeps deep into the beautiful Agraba night. Add in Brad Kane’s smoking tenor tones with Salonga and you get a truly touching love song and Disney’s best song to date.

Alright I know someone’s favorite song didn’t make it onto the list so go ahead and use the comments below to make a case for your favorite song. Or to just say what kind of an idiot I truly am!
