the most poignant moving inspiring and evocative tracks from Disney's animated movies Pixar project included we're including happy songs sad songs and everything in between but won't be featuring instrumentals so you won't find married life from up here since some of these numbers concern crucial plot points a spoiler alert is now in effect number 20 I will go sailing no more Toy Story there Comes A Time in most of our Lives when we're confronted with harsh truths often this means realizing that things aren't as rosy as we believed and there's a necessary sadness that comes with accepting that but no it can't be true I could fly if I wanted to Randy Newman's I will go sailing no more captures this feeling of sorrow in poignant fashion Newman's voice carries deep emotion and the song's ability to reflect Buzz Lightyear's Journey as he reluctantly realizes he is a toy is unmatched in [Music] my dream that ended too soon now I know exactly who I am hopefully like buzz we all eventually realize that one dream not panning out isn't the end and that there's always more to sail towards but when we need to sit with the pain this track always helps clearly I will go sa no more number number 19 No Way Out Brother Bear Phil Collins can Elevate any film through song brother Bear's No Way Out is proof his voice lyrics and the co-producing he did with Mark Manina speak for themselves but we'll say a few words anyway I do anything within my power I give everything I've got but the path I seek is hidden from me now in the flick we hear the tune at a pivotal moment as keenai reveals Dakota that he killed the Cub's mom there's a sense of Sorrow underscoring the number that speaks to the guilt and regret that comes with hurting someone we care about of all the things I hid from you I cannot hide the shame and I pray someone something will come take away the P Collins's vocal set a remorseful mood with the music bolstering them to move us to tears we don't need to hear every word Kenai speaks because does No Way Out makes us feel how sorry he is and how devastated the fleeing Kota is but I can't see another way I can't face another day number 18 Go the Distance Hercules we all know what it's like to not quite fit in for Hercules that angst is exacerbated by his strength and the fact that he's the son of Zeus though he doesn't know that last part at first no matter what's causing your struggle the right tune can help and Propel you to find your place Go the Distance is that song I would go almost anywhere to feel like I blong it starts off slow giving off a pensive quality that never fails to make us emotional soon enough it becomes a determined Anthem as our hero travels to find answers I am on my way I Can Go the Distance I don't care how far I'll be the triumphant repre that comes after he learns the truth is no less inspiring we believe we can travel any distance thanks to this equal parts moving and motivating number I [Music] will her welcome right where I belong number 17 goodbye may seem forever The Fox and the Hound goodbyes are difficult but we can find solace in Memories We formed few Disney tracks communicate this Bittersweet truth as eloquently as goodbye may seem forever you looked at me needing me so yet from your sadness our happiness grew and I I found out I needed you too Widow Tweed doesn't want to part ways with Todd but she feels she has no other choice it's for the fox's safety this soft tune plays as she takes him away and leaves him behind and it allows us to experience the whole scope of their special relationship and now I find we're both alone goodbye me seem forever farewell is like the end it may be goodbye but the track with its warm lyrics and melancholic Melody makes it crystal clear that these two are forever bound to each other it's a lovely if heartbreaking number and we struggle to maintain our composure when we hear it my heart and there you always [Music] be number 16 someone's waiting for you The Rescuers The Rescuers has to be one of of the most underrated Disney flicks out there and someone's waiting for you one of the most underappreciated songs it comes on while the dejected penny is sobbing scared that she'll never be adopted Brave Little make a wish sad little tear the ballad acts as a light with its gentle but encouraging assurances that better days are coming it's not always easy to craft a number that understands despair while also being full of hope but that balance is struck perfectly here you be of see someone's waiting for you it's precisely this mixture that makes the listening experience such a vividly affecting one that alone would have been enough to Captivate Us but Shelby Flint's voice takes the whole thing to a different extra powerful level so yeah we are not okay someone's way to love number 15 I am Moana song of the ancestors Moana you've probably noticed that a lot of these tracks deal with finding light amid the darkness and this is no exception clearly something about that juxtaposition makes for hauntingly beautiful music as evidenced by I am Moana song of the ancestors we are descended from voyagers who found their way across the world they call at this point in the film Moana is tired and she feels like giving up who hasn't been there the late gatala Spirit knows exactly what to say though or rather sing sometimes the world seems against the journey may leave a skar but scar can heal and reveal just where you through this engrossing tune she gives our protagonist the ability to find her Inner Strength by drawing on her ancestors soon Moana begins singing ready to save her people as the music Soares with her voice taking us to new uplifting Heights we can't help but feel empowered to I know the way I am a one number 14 a dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes Cinderella Cinderella has many magnetic songs that get us in our feelings oh sing Sweet Nightingale and So This is Love for instance never leave us indifferent but Cinderella starts her day with a song that has to be the winner in this regard a dream is a Wish Your Heart when you're fast to its thesis is in its title and the way the heroin believes so deeply in the message that the dreams that we wish will come true as long as we believe is downright touching have fa in your dreams and someday your Rainbow will come smile meanwhile Cinderella's voice actress the late Eileen Woods brings just the right amount of calm optimism delivered with a Grace that makes us feel like we're safe at home she's accompanied by a Melody that can only be described as soothing making for an unforgettable ballad the dreams that I wish will come true number 13 Once Upon A Dream Sleeping Beauty it's hard to talk about 1959 sleeping beauty without talking about it theme the one and only once upon a dream that alone speaks to the love song's enduring impact which we think has a lot to do with its ability to make us Sway and Swoon I know you I walked with you once upon a dream of course most people understandably associate it with the scene in the woods featuring Aurora and Phillip but we hear some version of it more than once in the movie and it's not for nothing you can never get too much of that sort of romantic Elegance I know what you you upon we occasionally pinch ourselves to make sure the tender melodic track is real don't worry it's dreamy but it does indeed exist in the world of the [Music] awake [Music] number 12 Colors of the Wind Pocahontas there's an inescapable link binding all forms of life on this Earth together this ballad from 1995's Pocahontas takes that idea and makes it sound more poetic than we knew was possible can you paint with all the colors of the wind can you paint with all the colors [Music] the as the film's title character whose singing voice is provided by the very talented Judy cun brings it to life we find ourselves speechless in the best way fully immersed in its philosophy Colors of the Wind isn't just pretty in a superficial way either no there's a striking profundity to it both lyrically and musically that reaches the core of our beings come run the Hidden Pine TRS of the forest come taste the sun sweet sweet berries of the Earth come rolling all the riches all around you and for once to say Alan manin and Steven Schwarz outdid themselves on this one would be an understatement but we're certainly not complaining [Music] sing number 11 Beauty and the Beast Beauty and the Beast Taylor's oldest time true as it can be we wish we could have been seren by the late Angela Lansbury in real life but her Sublime comforting vocals as Mrs pots on this Timeless ballad are the next best thing after all it doesn't get much more enchanting than Beauty and the beast's theme song ever as before ever just as sure as the sun will rise evocative Heavenly remarkable sweet and breathtaking are just a few terms we'd use to describe it and even they don't do it justice the truth is there are no words that can adequately describe how the ballad grips us it draws Us in from the first note and makes us feel like we're in that castle with bell and beast on their date by the end the Majestic tune has transformed us giving us full faith in love Tale As Old As Time song as old as rhyme Beauty and the Beast number 10 Baby Mine Dumbo as far as fictional parents go Mrs jumbo is definitely among the best she's never afraid to protect her child jumbo Jr AKA Dumbo which unfortunately leads to her getting chained up when she's briefly reunited with her adorable baby she instantly consoles him despite the the fact that she's also facing incredibly difficult conditions in solitary [Music] confinement don't cry [Music] baby we only see her trunk as this melodic lullabi plays but it doesn't matter because her love and heart are heard through the music as she cradles and caresses a teary Dumbo baby mine assures him that he's perfect as he [Music] isar sh the pair's link trunks jux deposed with the slowbeat and comforting lyrics cuts through the metaphorical noise in a resoundingly lovely way so precious to me just can be baby of M baby number nine Sally Song The Nightmare Before Christmas what do you get when you enter the world of Halloween Town musical numbers that'll send chills down your spine of course Jack Skellington notably helps us understand how a nagging desire for change is tormenting his thoughts through his lamenting oh there an empty place in my bones that holds out for something unknown even more moving though is Sally's self-titled tune she sings it after Jack heads off to take over Christmas despite her efforts to prevent him from doing so I sense there's something in the wind that feels like tragedies at hand it's extremely vulnerable as she expresses her fear that terrible things are coming while mourning a romantic relationship she worries will never be actress Katherine O'Hara's delivery is of course perfect nailing the character's quiet and despondent tone the result is a poignant number that stays with listeners long after it's over it's never to be for I am not the one number eight I See the Light Tangled just when we thought Rapunzel's story couldn't be refreshed Disney came in and proved us wrong with tangled in this film The Princess dreams of seeing the lantern show which she doesn't initially know is put on by her parents with some help from Flynn Ryder she makes it there which is where this duet comes in [Music] stand the hopeful lyrics and riveting music perfectly capture the significance of Rapunzel being among the floating lanterns at the same time the number shines a spotlight on how she and Flynn are starting to see each other in a new romantic light now she's here shining in the star now she's here suddenly I know surrounded by an exquisitly lit Sky the emotion in the song is palpable and it's impossible not to get swept up in how magical it feels [Music] all now I see number seven reflection Mulan when we picture Mulan we think of the iconic Warrior she becomes but her journey isn't a simple one she doesn't fit the mold Society has created for women as evidenced by her horrible appointment with the Matchmaker that encounter understandably leaves her feeling low look at me I will never pass for a Perfect Bride or she vocalizes her pain through this vividly revealing song the lyrics tell the story of how she's afraid to embrace her inner self spurred by a belief that she wouldn't be good enough for her family girl I see staring straight back our hearts break watching Mulan partly because her rendition is striking but also because many of us have been there let's just say our mirrors reflect teary faces back at us whenever we hear this one when will reflection show who I am inside number six you'll be in my heart Tarzan sometimes it's possible to find a glimmer of light amid unspeakable Darkness that's exactly what you'll be in my heart is come stop your crying it'll be all right just take my hand hold it tight the number is born out of immense tragedy as kala's baby gorilla and Tarzan's human parents's lives were cut short having lost their nearest and dearest the the surviving Duo find solace in each other this heartwarming song puts the pure wholesome and unconditional love a mother has for her kid front and center touching us deeply I will protect you from all around you I will be here don't you cry kala creates Joy despite all her pain after adopting Tarzan the transition to Phil Collins's voice as we see the new family bonding only adds to the moment's impact letting us know we're in for an emotional ride you'll be he my heart [Music] always always number five doas Encanto Encanto is chalk full of mesmerizing songs doas is a quiet sentimental number that describes two caterpillars blossoming into butterflyes whose paths diverge though their love [Music] persists it elegantly transports us back in time playing over a montage of Pedro and abuela Alma's relationship his tragic death and the miracle that followed when the action shifts back to the present abua and Mirabel sweetly Embrace while the tune resumes building in intensity in a Heavenly manner the visuals Melody and lyrics come together seamlessly and the result is both stunning and gutting a symbol of the Madrigal family history and Alma and Pedro's unbreakable Bond the song Always tugs at our heartstrings thanks to theas we keep our eyes healed for [Music] butterflies number four the next right thing Frozen 2 we all knew Elsa could hit us in the fields with her ballads but Frozen to proved that Anna could too you are lost hope is gone but you must go on when it seems her big sister and Olaf have passed away she's obviously devastated what follows is a raw moment where her usual upbeat attitude takes a back seat as she puts gripping words and music to the concept of grief the next right thing is all about putting one foot in front of the other as you mourn and just trying to make the right decisions through the anguish but break it down to this next breath this next step this next choice is one that I can make encapsulating determination strength and excruciating pain all at once the soft instrumentals and Anna's trembling voice Infuse the song with more emotion than we can handle excuse us we have something in our eyes then I'll make the choice to hear that voice and do the next right thing number three remember me Coco remember me and Coco are synonymous at this point and for good reason of course there's Ernesto de la Cruz's version but above all it's Hector's gorgeous lullabi for his daughter Coco each time you hear a guitar it explains that though they may not always be together physically they're linked as long as they think of one another with him having passed away and her losing her memories it becomes the last thread that can connect them to help Koko remember Miguel her great grandson sings it to her once more for even if I'm far away I hold you in my heart I sing a secret song to you each night we are aart his rendition is overwhelmingly beautiful with the audience feeling each Bittersweet guitar chord and word in their bones the refrain takes on an even deeper meaning as Coco joins in making us weep we'll certainly never forget this captivating track until you're in my arms [Music] again number two When She Loved Me Toy Story 2 if there's one thing the Toy Story movies know how to do it's wreck us emotionally nowhere is that more obvious than in the second film when we learn where Jesse the Cowgirl comes from When Somebody Loved Me Everything was beautiful every hour SP together lives my heart the sorrowful number accompanies past images of the toy and Emily who once cared for her ultimately of course the latter character grew up so the years went by I stayed the same but she began to drift away I was left alone we can feel Jesse's suffering through Sarah McLaughlin's pensive vocals which complement the soft Melody perfectly the song holds a sense of Love loss that's difficult to Bear raising the story stakes and adding depth to the character and World needless to say we all wanted to tell our old childhood toys that we'll always love them after hearing it [Music] when before we continue be sure to subscribe to our Channel and
