54. Cruella De Vil (101 Dalmatians) – Nominated by Cokes
This song makes me laugh at how Roger is such a complete and utter troll during this entire thing. Like seriously, that is the complete reason this song is this high. I don’t think I have laughed as much as any other song on this list, although there might be a couple. The song itself isn’t anything at all really because most of it is Cruella being horrible but Roger’s complete contempt for her and his random playing instruments upstairs while she visits just is hilariously funny. Not a song to listen to over and over or anything, but it is a great scene and the trolling pleases me.
53. Say the Word (Kim Possible) – Nominated by RySenkari
This is the song that was a lot lower that I mentioned I had to reconsider the list because it was a lot better than I originally thought. I have never seen much of Kim Possible but the song is pretty amazing for the type of character she appears to be. Also the excellent music video helped to sell the song pretty well. But truthfully this is just a well arranged song that is a pleasure to listen to, so it isn’t hard to see why I decided to move it up a bit. I am not sure what I had against it at first but the song seems like an amazing emblematic theme for the character.
52. Stranger Like Me (Tarzan) – Nominated by Ryo8899
So we have a Phil Collins song outside of the top fifty, which really just goes to show how amazingly strong this top fifty ends up being. I absolutely adore Phil Collins but at the same time this song is clearly the weakest of the three nominated from the movie. It just doesn’t have quite the same oomph the other two have. Still amazing to listen to though and it is songs like this that remind me that Tarzan is so easy to overrate if you just listen to the songs from the movie because it has one of the best soundtracks in Disney’s history.
51. Friend Like Me (Aladdin) – Nominated by DoctorBIind
Speaking of amazing soundtracks, hello Aladdin. The Genie is amazingly awesome and this song highlights this pretty well. I don’t think enough good guys have amazing theme songs like the Genie does here. Beyond how fun the song is I have said previously themes behind the song are pretty important to me and this song shows the viewer just what Genie is all about, and it is an important musical number for an amazing movie. It does lack a bit in the singing power department but that can’t take too much away from what the song is about: fun. Robin Williams is awesome.
Top 50 to start later! OH THE EXCITEMENT.
