Board 8 > Sir Chris ranks the Disney Songs as chosen by the users. [Prize] [Fun] [Whoo]

(+) Yeah! (+)

Hey guys so I am nearly done with my rankings and it has been a lot of hard effort if I am going to be truthful. First I made sure to re-listen to every song at least once, even old favorites, to make sure I had a good grasp on them. I also watched a few movies for the very first time in order to understand the context of some of the songs. Fortunately my Disney library was pretty much complete before this so that didn't take too long. Then I had to listen to songs upwards of ten times as I split hairs in some of the higher rankings. This list was absolutely brutal but endlessly joyous to make. I love Disney and I love its music, and this project gave me a great reminder as to why that is. At its best Disney speaks to the heart of the human soul, uplifts us, drives us into the minds of villains and sometimes just let's us have fun. It was an amazing ride to listen to all of these songs and overall I am very pleased with you guys for not suggesting too many duds.

Anyway as I have previously said I am not going to reward people for nominating the highest songs because that's just luck. Let's get some skill going on in here!

The person who guesses the most songs in my top ten gets something from me. Who knows what this mysterious prize could be!?

Tiebreakers go for placement and stuff.

I am going to give you guys the chance to make some guesses while I finish my list. If you have any questions let me know =)

If anybody has the spare time to rank every song, they should do it. That way, when Chris reveals rankings, we can take a look at the distance between his rankings and ours, and add up points and decide who is the TRUE VICTOR golf style.

No I'm not just saying this because I originally thought he wanted us to rank every song and I don't want my work to be for naught.

Since I don't know you at all, this will more reflect songs that I happen to enjoy. Although based on some of your saves in the Disney contest, I feel like maybe I could guess a few of them.

1. A Whole New World
2. Part of Your World
3. Be Prepared
4. Belle
5. Hellfire
6. Beauty and the Beast
7. I Won't Say I'm In Love
8. Two Worlds
9. Go the Distance
10. This Is Halloween

I spent way way too long on this. My biggest problem with trying to do this is a lot of my favorite disney songs are because they had an emotional attachment to me that I know doesn't affect other people the same way.

hmph



1. colors of the wind
2. He's a Pirate
3. Can you feel the love tonight
4. go the distance
5.a whole new world
6.I'll make a man out of you
7. Part of your world
8. two worlds
9. gaston
10. Be Prepared


I cut I wont say i'm in love for Part of your world. if I lost a point there I will be very not happy,

103. Pink Elephants on Parade (Dumbo) – Nominated by darkx


I only am keeping track of who nominated what if I happen to have it on my list, if you want to claim a song without a name feel free. Anyway darkx has become the scourge of my Disney loving world after I listened and watched the video for this song. Unlike the other songs to come it did not have the mercy of being relatively short. I was subjected to almost five whole minutes of this torture that someone who was clearly either as high as a space shuttle or really wanted to simulate the experience designed this. It is just so overwhelming that I could not derive any enjoyment from it whatsoever. While other songs on this list might technically be worse this one gave me a headache and dragged out the nonsensical imagery for so long paired with unenjoyable sounds made this a pretty easy choice for the last spot. A note I think I hated this song as a kid even more, but it has been years since I have seen it. Kudos to my past self though.

102. The Siamese Cat Song (Lady and the Tramp) – Nominated by SuorGenoveffa


The point of a song should not be to annoy me. This song just annoys me. I don’t like the voices, the sound, and the actions in the video are just grating. Oh how awesome you are causing trouble for the dog by being annoying. No, really, that’s what I wanted to see. So bad.

101. I Won't Grow Up (Peter Pan)


Yeah this is annoying too. I don’t like badly voiced songs that rely on terrible harmonies and repeating words. I enjoy Peter Pan as a story but this song is terrible. Very grating and nothing at all I enjoy out of a song. Just very unenjoyable but mercifully it doesn’t have terribly annoying visuals and thus earns the distinct honor of escaping the bottom two of this.

I promise these write ups get more positive sooner rather than later.

Falconnnnnnn PUNCH!

Let's get dangerous!


100. Following the Leader (Peter Pan) – Nominated by PrinceKaro



This is 90 seconds long, and welcome to the sole reason it got above the other Peter Pan song. This is hardly a song, the voices in it suck, and I have no mercy at all for bad songs in the Disney archives because of how utterly fantastic some of them are. This is just so irritating and once again I must say I like Peter Pan. This is just so bad.


99. Theme Song (Tailspin) – Nominated by StifledSilence



I can hear the cries of anger from here. I am a harsh judge and this just sounds like a lot of random noise to me. I do not like random noise. I will never like random noise. This has way too much of it in it. Ask me to rank the series and maybe we'll get somewhere else, but as far as the actual theme it is just a mess and does not measure up to some of the other pieces on this list, including the other themes.

98. The Ballad of Davy Crockett (Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier) - Nominated by paulg235



Things this has going for it: It is a song and it isn't sung by cats or people from Peter Pan. Well, that was over quick. This isn't my thing at all to an extreme. Repetitive, struggled to listen to all 100 seconds of it and it just wasn't very good at all. The good news is that the songs I truly dislike ends very soon so while I dislike the song my burning hatred has simmered a bit already, that's good.

97. Hi Diddle Dee Dee (Pinocchio) - Nominated by darkx



Two songs in the bottom seven? Ouch. You should be glad there wasn't some sort of anti-prize for making me die inside or you'd be screwed. Well anyway this song was extremely repetitive by the tune was something and so it is better than anything else previously. It was also mercifully short. So we are getting a little better now I guess even though the bar hasn't been set very high at all. At this point I am extremely glad I pre-listened to all of these so I don't have to again, yay.

96. When I See an Elephant Fly (Dumbo) - Nominated by Emporer_Kazbar



Dumbo's highest ranked song, good job Dumbo. Anyway the crows are funny for the first thirty seconds without tune and then they remain humorous in a way for the rest of the song except it is horrible now. It's okay though, because it made me smile to start before the song picked up and this is where I move past the clear dislike. Sure it is bad, but I don't have the heart to dislike this. It's just kind of there.

See already past the dislike guys into the realm of "meh." Which I am going to say will also be a short trip.
