Can You Finish the Lyrics to These Disney Movie Songs?

"When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are. Anything your heart desires will come to you." (“When You Wish Upon a Star” from Pinocchio)

The Little Mermaid was one of the first Disney feature films to incorporate computer animation from Pixar. Instead of transferring the animators' images to celluloid and painting them, the Pixar program would upload them onto a computer and paint them using its infinite color palette. (“Kiss the Girl” from The Little Mermaid)

"I can show you the world, shining, shimmering, splendid. Tell me, Princess, now when did you last let your heart decide?" ("A Whole New World" from Aladdin)

Christian Bale provided the voice of Thomas in Pocahontas and appeared in The New World (another Pocahontas themed film) as John Rolfe in 2005. Irene Bedard was the voice of Pocahontas, and she, too, appeared in The New World as Pocahontas’ mother. ("Colors of the Wind” from Pocahontas)

"Cruella De Vil, Cruella De Vil, if she doesn’t scare you, no evil thing will." ("Cruella De Vil” from 101 Dalmatians)

The animated classic, Beauty and the Beast, had a production budget of only $25 million. To date, it has grossed almost $425 million worldwide. (“Beauty and the Beast” from Beauty and the Beast)

“The sweet caress of twilight—there’s magic everywhere. And with all this romantic atmosphere, disaster’s in the air.” (“Can You Feel the Love Tonight” from The Lion King)

Walt Disney might have died a rich man, but he had humble tastes. His favorite meal was two cans of Hormel and Gebhardt chili with lemon Jell-O as dessert. (“Why Should I Worry” from Oliver and Company)

"The snow glows white on the mountain tonight—not a footprint to be seen. A kingdom of isolation and it looks like I’m the queen.” (“Let It Go” from Frozen)

The story of Mulan was based on a real Chinese legend set in the 6th century. However, the movie has many historical inaccuracies such as colored fireworks (they would have been plain), simplified Chinese is written (something created around 1950), and The Great Wall of China still had a long time before it was constructed. (“I’ll Make a Man Out of You” from Mulan)

“Some day my prince will come. Some day we’ll meet again and away to his castle we’ll go to be happy forever I know.” (“Some Day My Prince Will Come” from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)

The Jungle Book grossed about $205 million worldwide. If that amount were adjusted for inflation, it would rank 32nd in the all-time highest grossing movies. (“Bare Necessities” from The Jungle Book)

"I know you. I walked with you once upon a dream. The gleam in your eyes is so familiar a gleam. Yet I know it’s true that visions are seldom all they seem." (“Once Upon a Dream” from Sleeping Beauty)

Tim Burton, who later produced The Nightmare Before Christmas, got his start at Disney, animating The Fox and the Hound and The Black Cauldron. Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure was his first full-length feature film, but Jack Skellington can be seen in his second film, Beetlejuice, on top of the title character’s head-carousel at the end of the movie. (“What’s This?” from Nightmare Before Christmas)

“Baby mine, don’t you cry. Baby mine, dry your eyes. Rest your head close to my heart, never to part, baby of mine.” (“Baby Mine” from Dumbo)

Romance didn’t only happen on screen at Disney. Lillian Bounds, one of Disney’s first animators, married Walt on July 13, 1925. The couple had two children Diane and Sharon. (“Belle Notte” from Lady and the Tramp)

“When he smiled, the girls went wild with ooh’s and aah’s, and they slapped his face on every vase.” (“Zero to Hero” from Hercules)

The Princess and the Frog represented a return to traditional animation- there is no computer animation on it. There was much controversy when The Princess and the Frog was released with Christians upset about voodoo magic and other upset about voodoo not being portrayed as a religion. Since the process of traditional animation is more costly and time-consuming and the controversy prevented the movie from making money, the idea for future hand animated movies was scrapped. (“Almost There” from The Princess and the Frog)

“I who keep you, teach you, feed you, dress you. I who look upon you without fear. How can I protect you, boy, unless you always stay here away in here?” (“Out There” from The Hunchback of Notre Dame)

Walt once played Peter Pan in a school play and felt he completely identified with the character. J. M. Barrie (author of Peter Pan) left the rights to the book to the Great Ormond Street Hospital. Disney made a deal with the hospital in 1939 for exclusive animation rights to the story. The Disney Corporation continues to support the hospital to this day. (“You Can Fly” from Peter Pan)

“Everybody wants to be a cat because a cat’s the only cat who knows where it’s at. Tell me—everybody pickin’ up on that feline beat ‘cause everything else is obsolete.” (“Everybody Wants to Be a Cat” from Aristocats)

The characters Rapunzel and Eugene make an appearance in Frozen during the wedding scene. Frozen is set in the 1840’s, but filmmakers stated Tangled takes place in the 1780’s. If the setting is 60 years different, Rapunzel and Eugene look really good for their ages. (“Mother Knows Best” from Tangled)

“Put your faith in what you most believe in. Two worlds—one family. Trust your heart. Let faith decide to guide these lies we see.” (“Two Worlds” from Tarzan)

After over a decade of development, Alice in Wonderland appeared in 1951 to audiences that were less than receptive. Disney re-released the film in the sixties and its resemblance to an acid trip and the marketing ability to tie it into the culture of the time made it a success. (“In a World of My Own” from Alice in Wonderland)

“When the road looks rough ahead and you’re miles and miles from your nice warm bed, you just remember what your old pal said—boy, you’ve got a friend in me.” (“You’ve Got a Friend in Me” from Toy Story)

Walt Disney tried to enlist in the military during World War I. He was too young at the time, so he joined the Red Cross and drove an ambulance covered in cartoons for wounded soldiers instead. (“Shiny” from Moana)

“So this is love. So this is what makes life divine. I’m all aglow, and now I know the key to all heaven is mine.” (“So This Is Love” from Cinderella)

Winnie-the-Pooh is one of only 13 fictional characters to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The others are Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Big Bird, Bugs Bunny, Godzilla, Snoopy, Kermit the Frog, The Munchkins, Shrek, Snow White, Tinkerbell, Woody Woodpecker, The Rugrats, and the Simpsons. Mickey Mouse was the first fictional character to receive one on November 18, 1978. (“The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers” from The Many Adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh)

“Life’s a happy game. You could clown around forever. Neither one of you sees your natural boundaries.” (“Best of Friends” from The Fox and the Hound)

With less than 900 words in the entire movie, voice actor Donnie Dunagan had it made in the title role. However, when he went on to become a major in the marines, he tried to keep his career as Bambi secret. (“Little April Shower” from Bambi)

"Robin Hood and Little John walkin’ through the forest laughin’ back and forth at what the other has to say. Reminiscin’ this-n-thattin’, havin’ such a good time oo-de-lally, oo-de-lally, golly what a day.” (“Oo-De-Lally” from Robin Hood)

Home on the Range was cited as the reason Disney took a five-year break from hand animation. The production budget for the film was $110 million but it grossed just under $104 million. (“Will the Sun Ever Shine Again” from Home on the Range)

"There’s no place I’d rather be than on my surfboard out at sea lingering on the ocean blue, and if I had one wish come true, I’d surf ‘til the sun sets.” (“Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride” from Lilo and Stitch)

Walt Disney was born on December 5, 1901 in Chicago, Illinois. He had three brothers and one sister. (“Barking at the Moon” from Bolt)

"When the spooks have a midnight jamboree, they break it up with fiendish glee. Ghosts are bad, but the one that’s cursed is the Headless Horseman. He’s the worst.” (“The Headless Horseman” from The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad)
