20 Of The Best Disney Channel Original Movie Songs

It is no secret that I love a good Disney Channel Original Movie. I spent the majority of Memorial Day Weekend 2016 watching the DCOM 100 marathon. It was spectacular to say the least.

From 2002-2007, my TV was forever on Disney Channel. I loved every aspect of it from the TV shows to the music videos to the back stage video clips. What I loved most though were the DCOMs. Even though the plots were pretty much all the same (some talented teenager found out that they had a skill and it quickly became their goal to make their dream come true in a 90 minute period), they provided hours upon hours of entertainment for millions of tweens. The premieres were some of the most exciting Friday nights for elementary school girls everywhere.

I think it is safe to say that the best Disney Channel Original Movies had the best songs. Some of these movies were musicals and others weren't, but at age 19, I know I'm not the only one who isn't ashamed to admit that I still will blast the songs found in these masterpieces in my car on a Thursday for a #tbt. Here are 20 of my favorites and, in my opinion, the best songs found from DCOMs:

1. "Strut" from "The Cheetah Girls 2"

If this song doesn't inspire you to let out your inner cheetahlicious-self, then I don't know what will

2. "We're All in This Together" from "High School Musical"

Not only is this song inspirational, but you most likely still know this dance by memory ten years later

3. "Supernova Girl" from "Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century"

Zoom, zoom, zoom this song still makes my heart go boom, boom, boom

4. "Gotta Go My Own Way" from "High School Musical 2"

If I don't have a break up that is exactly like this song, I will have seriously done something wrong with my life.

5. "Cheetah Sisters" from "The Cheetah Girls"

This song is ALL of the feels

6. "This is Me" from "Camp Rock"

So much angst not only in this performance, but also in Demi's bangs

7. "Surf Crazy" from "Teen Beach Movie"

Even though I find Disney Channel to be a monstrosity now, I thought "Teen Beach Movie" was actually cute.

8. "Push it to the Limit" from "Jump In!"

The fro.

9. "Play My Music" from "Camp Rock"

PRIME Jonas Brothers right here.

10. "Introducing Me" from "Camp Rock 2"

I wish a picture of what Nick Jonas looks like today were this entire video.

11. "Bet On It" from "High School Musical 2"

Ok, maybe I do get why Zac Efron is a little embarrassed of his High School Musical days, but I think this shows a wide range of acting.

12. "Do You Believe in Magic" from "Now You See It..."

You may not remember "Now You See It..." (I sure don't), but I know you remember Aly & Aj's "Do You Believe in Magic"

13. "Breaking Free" from "High School Musical"

I mean, duh.

14. "The Galaxy is Ours" from "Zenon the Zequel"

Look me in the eyes right now, and tell me you don't love Proata Zoa. I dare you.

15. "We Rock" from "Camp Rock"

Who doesn't love a good DCOM finale song?

16. "Get a Clue" from "Get a Clue"

The first of MANY DCOMs Brenda Song was in.

17. "It's Over" from "The Cheetah Girls 2"

I LOVE the unnecessary dramatics.

18. "It's On" from "Camp Rock 2"

I love a "pump up" DCOM song almost as much as I love a finale DCOM song.

19. "More than Me" from "Stuck in the Suburbs"

Let's just take a moment to appreciate the fact that Jordan Cahill is now on SNL.

20. "Out of This World" from "Zenon Z3"

Please stop this Proata Zoa imposter immediately.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
