5. “The Circle of Life” The Lion King (1994)

4It starts with a yell, and this signals the beginning of Disney’s epic journey of life. As Rafiki lifts the baby cub Simba up over his head arms extended we now know that a new prince is born. The song itself is an amazing mixture of both tribal chanting and pop sensibility. Only a more radio and contemporary favored song written for The Lion King could stop this song from winning Best Original Song and that was the song Can You Feel the Love Tonight also written by Elton John and Tim Rice. For our money, though this is the one that started the whole movie off on an epic and unexpected note. Literally!
