10 Best Animated Film Musical Numbers

6. Friend Like Me €“ Aladdin (Disney) http://youtu.be/cd07uvkTeKo If you saw Aladdin as a child you were no doubt stunned into awed silence by the sheer frenetic irreverence of Friend Like Me. It€™s a moment every eighties baby remembers with a warm fondness and the introduction to one of Disney€™s most iconic contemporary characters: Robin Williams€™ Genie. Friend Like Me is about possibility, about imagination and follow through €“ this is what you can achieve if you make a friend of creativity and the unpredictability that it invites. If you embrace it and accept it into your personality then your imagination is the only limit to your potential power as an individual. As we all know the film goes on to examine the destructive potential of that power when wielded by one with selfish or evil intent; Friend Like Me doesn€™t focus on such darkness though. It focuses on the dizzying, euphoric moment in life when a good heart realises the infinite spectrum of possibility that imagination facilitates.
