5. Someday My Prince Will Come - Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs (1937)
http://youtu.be/0niwn2pOEno This is the one that started it all. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was the first full-length cel animation film and was produced by Walt Disney himself. Someday My Prince Will Come was composed by Frank Churchill and written by Larry Morey, and performed by Adriana Caselotti in the film. Caselottis performance is elegant and nearly operatic; a mesmerizing melody that harkens back to a different film era. Someday My Prince Will Come is the first and definitive Disney song about the longing for a fairy tale ending. It was truly a trailblazer for Disney music and a remains a beacon for nostalgia. 4. A Whole New World - Aladdin (1992)
http://youtu.be/-kl4hJ4j48s A Whole New World is one of Disneys most decorated songs. Composed by Alan Menken and written by Tim Rice, it not only won an Oscar for Best Original Song, but a pop version of the tune also topped the Billboard Top 100. In the film, the song is a soaring melody that breaks the restraints of Aladdin and Princess Jasmine, who are voiced by Brad Kane and Lea Salonga. It is accompanied by some dazzling visuals as the two lovebirds traverse the world on a magic carpet ride. The song is a nostalgic bonanza that emphasizes the desire for independence from their social stations and the opportunity for new and exciting adventures together. It is thrilling ride for the audience as well.
