Disney films will always have a special place in our hearts. As kids, we grew up watching “The Lion King,” “Pocahontas,” “Tarzan,” “Aladdin,” and many other amazing classic Disney films. A very special part to these timeless treasures, other than their amazing characters, were their songs. Even today we can bust out all of the lyrics to just about every Disney song we loved as kids. We have a very specific skill set going to waste, as some would say.
Not only are the songs catchy and entertaining, but they hold the wisdom and advice that the films are trying to get you to understand. They contain the themes and lessons inherent to all Disney films.
Chances are you have your favorite Disney films, I know I do. Though I love most Disney films, "The Lion King" will always be my all-time-favorite classic Disney movie. Some of my favorite Disney films I have chosen in particular because of their phenomenal songs. I always love a good soundtrack to go with a movie.

These classic Disney films will always hold a special place in my heart. Most of the movies these songs are from were my favorites growing up, plus a few more recent films to grace the movie shelves of Disney lovers. Though the classics will always be #1 in my heart, the new Disney films, like "Tangled," "Frozen," and "Brave" are all wonderful films. This list in no way encapsulates the entirety that are Disney songs, but they are some of my favorite Disney songs.
No matter how old we get, we are never too old to watch Disney, and we most certainly aren't too old to listen to these amazing songs.
