I think what most annoys me is that it's missing a lot of great villain songs. A lot of that can be attributed to the choice to have the actual voice actor do the singing as opposed to the heroes, who often have singing voice stand-ins, but come on - no Hellfire? No Be Prepared? No Friends On The Other Side? No Gaston?
Assuming the list writers a disney adult, it's probs because if they put the villians tracks in this list it means they won or someshit. Also no mention of any tracks off Mickeys Dance Party (2001), this list has got to be taking the piss.
Pissing my pants rn because it is so unbelievably insane for objectively the greatest Disney song of all time to not to be found anywhere on 100 fucking songs
Both Hercules and Hunchback have some of the best music of any Disney film, and for them to be completely left off of this list (AND to not be brought up by the melon) is a crime.
@@markc266 My bad, I didn't see it - "I Won't Say I'm in Love" at #45 - but "Go the Distance" is even better and isn't on here, plus "Zero to Hero" and "A Star is Born"...so many tracks that are better than the ones billboard listed.
Out There has a beautiful sentiment and I think it's become adopted by the gay community as a kind of yearning ballad of a closeted gay man wanting to be free since the actor singing it was in that situation when Hunchback released. He plays the titular role in Amadeus btw, one of my favorite movies. But the uptempo songs are great too: Bells of Notre Dame, Topsy Turvy and of course the ultimate villain song and I even like the ballad "God Help the Outcasts" thought it's more formulaic it's still a nice sentiment for a commercial disney movie.
I’m so glad to see a lot of comments talking about this one because I’ve always thought it was one of the very best and no one irl ever seems to mention it
No way Disney would release a film today that was as kinky. The religious old crony of a villain singing a song about lusting after the "princess" of the movie.
@@ChristofEightyEighti see what you mean and I think it’s a great song but it’s also an example of Disney allowing their non-white, “exotic” female characters to be sexualised in a way they never would their white ones- pretty sure they’ve learned not to continue that pattern, for which I for one am grateful. (Though Hunchback in general has unusually mature themes, considering, and obviously that particular example of Esmerelda’s sexualisation is self-aware and thematically relevant).
Pocahontas is the most underrated soundtrack these days: Judy Kuhn stands out from most Disney singers with her deeper, more mature voice and she really belts out those choruses with a passionate vocal performance (Colors of the wind, river bend).
@@wesshiflet2214 yeah they really do place equal blame on the native americans and the colonizers don't they, especially with that song "savages". But it's always hindsight 20/20 in terms of political correctness even in the most vanilla type of movies that Disney is supposed to be. I just think you can't make a light hearted movie about the first colonizers, it's a blood-soaked part of history. But I'm glad the soundtrack exists.
oh bro if we're digging into the Hercules era can we also get Kuzco's theme from emperor's new groove, that's an entrance song to end all entrance songs
NO HUNCHBACK? The songs in that movie are AMAZING. Out There is probably the best "I Want" song they've ever put together (okay pls be nice, I know that's a big claim).
I did not know anthony was such a big disney fan. kinda dope to watch and i enjoyed how positive he was for the whole video, really refreshing. Melon please do a disney tier list or more disney music/movie content. I’m not a disney fanboy or anything like that, just like how positive he is for a change
@@princessauroraofficialthere's nothing from the Tron Legacy soundtrack on this?! I'm only halfway through this video but... With some of the shit I've seen on here already that's a pretty egregious omission.
@@princessauroraofficial that's wild. This list is super weird.

I mean, I could *kind of* understand if there was some arbitrary rules. There's a lot of glaring omissions even beyond those two examples. Which just makes me think whoever wrote this list was not very bright, didn't care so just threw whatever down, *OR* they got a corporate letter with the list they could write... I dunno...
Yeah, I didn't enjoy that movie even as a kid before I had any idea of it being, uh, a problematic way to depict the colonizer/indigenous American dynamic, but Just Around the Riverbend was always perfection, and easily one of the top Disney heroine "I want" songs ever.
Not one song from The Nightmare Before Christmas??!!?? The songs on that soundtrack are so beautiful, some of Danny Elfman’s best work…….Agree on Remember Me from Coco. That is such a sweet song that tugs at my heartstrings. Beautiful scene in the movie.
and have S.I.M.P. far from #1 because they had better songs to choose from, such as the Emmy-nominated "I Ain't Got Rhythm" or "Busted", which single-handedly inspired Lady Gaga & Beyoncé's "Telephone".
Man the disney renaissance songs made me realize how top tier the lyricists for Disney movies are. The music is obviously incredible, but damn. Those lyrics. Colors of the wind, hellfire, go the distance, all bops with nice words
I remember when all the Disney sitcoms actors got together for an updated version of lion king circle of life. That's so raven. Lizzie Maguire. All those sitcoms from the 2000s were on it and my childhood memory will always love that moment
@MyDarkTwistedSilentPlanet*When you say zack and Cody you always have to add "The suit life" not the other one. By the way that theme song was so fire as well
@@yuri2604The chemistry on that's so raven was off the charts too. That's why it stood out from the rest. I love lizzie too but more as a guilty pleasure show. That's so raven legit had some amazing episodes
@MyDarkTwistedSilentPlanetFacts. It is so early 2000s. There's a simplicity to that show that is both borderline insulting but brillant at the same time. And let's not forget the show was supposed to be from a 13 years old diary perspective and yeah that seemed quite accurate. I also love the fact that hilary duff is now in the how I met your father show and showing range as an actress
If we're gonna talk about Encanto songs, Dos Origuitas being absent from this list is a legit crime. That song absolutely destroyed me emotionally in the context of that film.
@@tylere.8436 but the whole movie kind of criticizes religion, so I doubt they find it too religious. But maybe it could be slightly controversial? Idk
It really is a travesty Waiting on a Miricle isn't on this list. It sets the tone for the entire movie and is such a beautiful track. Brings me to tears everytime. The fuckin key change in the chorus! Its so good. Easily a top 10 for me. Maybe 11 - 20. But would rank very high for me. Definitely an odd list.
I like the idea of Fantano the music critic never having seen these movies, yet still up to date on the actual songs within the movies, and rating them based only on that.
19:27 I WAS NOT EXPECTING YOU TO MENTION THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS!!! Thank you so much for bringing them up! I still have their “Here come the ABCs” DVD that I grew up with, and even to this day, all the songs on it are certified bops!
Hunchback's Out There & Hellfire, Hercules' Go the Distance not even there is actually insane. I wish Frozen II's Show Yourself was here. Crazy choices across the list, but lowballing Once Upon a Dream & A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes is BONKERS
All these comments talking about Hellfire have me feeling so vindicated about choosing it for my singing class to perform with. Truly iconic, should've been top 10 easy
The scope of this list feels strange. Picking only 100 from the music catalog of the ENTIRE Walt Disney Company and all of its studios and enterprises ensures that some great tracks get left out. When i hear "Best Disney Songs", I'm certainly not thinking of High School fucking Musical
Loving the surprising want for hellfire to be on the list in these comments. Hunchback is for me menken's boldest scores. I mean speaking of 'hellfire', 'out there', or even 'the bells of notredame' is also just as epic and sweeping.
Me and one of my best friends performed Gaston together in high school and ended up going to the national competition for musical theater because of it. Super fun memory and I agree the song should’ve been on the list!
Bells of Notre Dame is my favorite Disney song and it didn’t even show up. Hunchback has the strongest soundtrack overall. Also I agree with Melon on everything, this is a bad list
Of every list you've ever reviewed I've never been more genuinely pissed than this. I don't even care about Disney, but this list is like you asked me to huff a whole can of computer duster and then quickly name 100 songs that are, at least, Disney adjacent. Like what the actual hell were they thinking when they made this? Billboard must just be a warehouse full of people smashing butterlies with hammers if this is seriously what they decided.
Honestly? I know it’s not technically a Disney song, but one of my all time favorite musical moments in the whole catalog of Disney movies is still the version of “I Put A Spell On You” from Hocus Pocus, great stuff. The vocal performance is top notch and the whole scene itself is just a lot of fun
Fantano's outrage at Waiting On A Miracle's exclusion makes me feel seen. "I am ready, come on I'm ready! I've been PATIENT and STEADFAST and STEADY." Sobs. Tears. Emotions.
Among what others have said about villain songs being lacking on the list and some films not being mentioned at all, I think part of the reason ZipDooDa was not included is because then Disney would have to acknowledge that Song of the South was a thing they made.
I appreciate the "waiting on a miracle" love because everyone always talks about "we don't talk about bruno" and to a lesser extent "surface pressure" but I think "waiting on a miracle" is a super underappreciated song from Encanto, I also don't think "what else can I do?" gets enough appreciation either "A Hurricane of Jacarandaaaaass" lives in my head rent free
Glad to see others just as flummoxed as I am not seeing Hellfire on this list. Truly bonkers. Top ten. Like at LEAST have “Out There” in the top 50!. Justice for The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
The fact that Love Is An Open Door, the objectively best song from the Frozen franchise was omitted but Do You Wanna Build a Snowman made it in makes me believe this was a Buzzfeed article in disguise.
On one hand, I appreciate the fact that they pooled from more than just the theatrical releases and covered most aspects of Disney canon, so I can't be too mad. On the other hand, wow there's a lot of obvious omissions!
6:49 Dude; Totally underrated song. The instrumentals alone. They visually bring the house down. The poetry is great minus the insensitivity to the Siamese Cat for a line. They could have been more inclusive/clever. Otherwise I call “Everybody Wants To Be A Cat” A new Ragtime Anthem.
I feel like most of my friends preferred the villain songs. They were the songs I heard in school the most lol. Gaston's song is one of my favorites too cause it's just so freaking fun. Poor Unfortunate Souls was super popular back in the day too. But when I say "friends" I mean gay high schoolers in like 2007.
Princess and the frog had a great song when the voodoo guy starts to sing are you ready that’s a great song that I feel like is somewhat more iconic than some of the lower stuff
Randy Newman could’ve taken every spot on this list, from the Toy Story movies, Princess and the Frog, Monsters Inc, and so many one-off bangers he’s got in his discography.
Fantano is my favorite Disney Princess.
Given Disney's proclivities on their definitions, your comment wouldn't be that absurd by their worldview.

Pissing my pants rn because it is so unbelievably insane for objectively the greatest Disney song of all time to not to be found anywhere on 100 fucking songs
Absolutely. It’s in the running for the greatest Disney villain song with Be Prepared and Poor Unfortunate Souls.

Literally my favourite Disney song
"Can You Feelthe Love Tonight" is a major exclusion.
Wait is it not in there at all?
@@tomjackson7322 nope
Great track, but the other two Lion King inclusions are better and are already placed high on the list.

The fact that Love Is An Open Door, the objectively best song from the Frozen franchise was omitted but Do You Wanna Build a Snowman made it in makes me believe this was a Buzzfeed article in disguise.
Justice for Go the Distance. Justice for Out There.
The Lindsay Lohan song from freaky Friday is a JAM DAMMIT
I'm totally there with you Antny on Frozen.
Same. Always thought Frozen was overrated.
On one hand, I appreciate the fact that they pooled from more than just the theatrical releases and covered most aspects of Disney canon, so I can't be too mad.
On the other hand, wow there's a lot of obvious omissions!
Only two Lion King songs on the whole list is literally insane
I am with you on these choices every step of the way.
I wonder what Stefan Burnett's favorite Disney movie would be.
6:49 Dude; Totally underrated song. The instrumentals alone. They visually bring the house down.
The poetry is great minus the insensitivity to the Siamese Cat for a line. They could have been more inclusive/clever.
Otherwise I call “Everybody Wants To Be A Cat” A new Ragtime Anthem.
You’ve Got A Friend In Me is the greatest song Disney ever produced.
Easily!!!
Agreed.
Technically Pixar wasn't owned by Disney at the time
11:02 that Kimba jumpscare was completely uncalled for, melonman
So this is excluding Pixar Movies? Because Life Incredible Again, Le Festin, Married Life, and Stuff We Did would all deserve a high placement.
No, Toy Story was on there. SO WHY THE FUCK ISN’T MARRIED LIFE IN TOP 10
All those tracks except for Le Festin are instrumental score cues, not songs. Though Married Life is an absolute classic.
I feel like most of my friends preferred the villain songs. They were the songs I heard in school the most lol. Gaston's song is one of my favorites too cause it's just so freaking fun. Poor Unfortunate Souls was super popular back in the day too. But when I say "friends" I mean gay high schoolers in like 2007.
Classic Kimba reference.
Princess and the frog had a great song when the voodoo guy starts to sing are you ready that’s a great song that I feel like is somewhat more iconic than some of the lower stuff
Randy Newman could’ve taken every spot on this list, from the Toy Story movies, Princess and the Frog, Monsters Inc, and so many one-off bangers he’s got in his discography.
I can't believe Billboard and Fantano missed 'Whistle Stop'. Best tune ever. Banger.
Did I miss "Colors of the Wind?" TOP 5
