Always together (Oliver)

A song from the Disney film “Oliver & Company,” which portrays the story of Oliver, a kitten who couldn’t find a buyer, and Jenny, the rich girl who takes him in.

As Jenny plays the piano and sings, she expresses her gentle wish to Oliver, who scampers around her: “Let’s stay close and get along forever from now on.” It’s a tender piece.

Across the riverComposer: Alan Menken

Across the River (Pocahontas)

A song from Disney’s Pocahontas that depicts two people of different races falling in love.

It captures Pocahontas’s excitement as she longs to see the river’s flow and the unfamiliar landscapes beyond it, to try things she’s never done before.

The musical, dialogue-like phrasing of the lyrics may feel challenging.

But that’s exactly the kind of new experience the song celebrates! Just like Pocahontas running free through nature, it’s best sung at karaoke with a lively, excited spirit.

It’s also fun to fully become Pocahontas and sing along with your friends!

No Way OutPhil Collins

No Way Out (Brother Bear)

This is an insert song from Brother Bear, a work that portrays the disconnect between humans and animals through the relationship between Kenai—who has been transformed into a bear but is actually human—and the bear cub Koda.

It accompanies a crucial scene where Kenai confesses that he was the one who killed Koda’s mother.

The song expresses the torment of feeling compelled to confess precisely because of the deep bond he feels.

The very quiet soundscape, as if mirroring Kenai’s anguish, is striking and further emphasizes the song’s message.

The sense of apology toward the one burdened with sorrow and the painful desire to make amends give the listener a palpable sense of anguish as well.
