Reflection

Reflection (Mulan)

A song befitting a film that won the Annie Award, often called the Oscars of animation.

The scene where she sings alone in the rain, lamenting that the version of herself the world and her family expect isn’t her true self, is especially memorable.

The bittersweet emotion is expressed in both the lyrics and the rhythm.

My wish

My Wish (The Hunchback of Notre Dame)

A song in which Quasimodo, confined to the church’s bell tower because of his illness, sings of his desire to venture into the outside world.

While The Hunchback of Notre Dame tends to feature somewhat darker pieces, this song, though maintaining its rich character by blending the orchestra with the sound of bells, evokes an image of bright light.

Hi-ho

Heigh-Ho (Snow White)

A song from the world’s first feature-length animated film, Snow White, released in 1937.

In the movie, the seven dwarfs, each with a unique personality, sing it while working at their job of mining diamonds.

The scene where they cheerfully sing while whistling is incredibly cute.

They also sing this song on their way home after finishing work.

The phrase “Hi-Ho” can mean things like “oh well” or “phew,” and it conveys the feeling of being pleasantly tired after finishing a job they enjoy.

Small World

Small World — Song: AI Kiritan (with lyrics)

How about “It’s a Small World,” a song imbued with the message “Let’s all get along”? It was written as the theme song for the Disneyland attraction It’s a Small World.

The lyrics are heartwarming, and its mid-tempo feel is sure to lift your spirits.

With many sustained notes, it’s also fun to enjoy long vocal lines.

That makes it perfect for choral singing, and thanks to its thematic lyrics, it would pair well with performances like school plays or recitals.
