During childhood, we watch so many movies with catchy songs and great soundtracks. However, most of these songs go overlooked as we grow older. Below, I listed my personal favorite forgotten songs from some of the best movies from my childhood.
1. "Eye 2 Eye" from "A Goofy Movie"
Along with the song "Stand Out," Powerline brings us "Eye 2 Eye." Both of these songs are catchy and perfect to dance along to, but "Eye 2 Eye" was always my favorite song to jam out to at the end of "A Goofy Movie." This song and the band Powerline is definitely underrated.
2. "Out There" from "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"
This particular song in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" is emotional, empowering, and beautiful. This song always hits me right in my feelings, and I dream that maybe one day I can leap and skip across the balcony of Notre Dame and not actually fall and hurt myself. Nevertheless, this song, along with the beautiful scenery of Paris, France in the background, is one of the most beautiful scenes from the movie.
3. "Why Should I Worry?" from "Oliver and Company"
Billy Joel hits the nail on the head with this song, and it continues to be a classic song that is so much fun to sing along to. I mean, what's better than a dog singing through the New York City Streets? This movie is easily forgotten, but its music and overall theme is timeless and continues to be one of my favorite movies.
4. "Let Me Be Your Wings" from "Thumbelina"
This song is absolutely beautiful and adorable at the same time. Even though this movie is, for lack of a better word, bizarre, this part makes up for the weirdness that this movie entails. This scene also made me not be terrified of bees anymore (for the most part).
5. "Deliver Us" from "The Prince of Egypt"
Finally, "Deliver Us" is probably one of the most powerful songs I ever heard as a kid, and it still continues to inspire me to this day. "The Prince of Egypt" is filled with amazing music, so it was difficult to pick just one song from the movie. However, this song always starts the movie off just right, setting the tone for the rest of the story.
