I would also like to see people's input on what they would think the ranks should be and post their opinions of the countdown. So without any ado, here are the results of the three countdowns I posted, and the rank of the best Disney songs of each of these eras. This is for the Renaissance Era.


Renaissance Era Background

Many of Disney’s most popolare songs came from the Renaissance Era, the last decade of Classic Disney. Apart from The Rescuers Down Under, all of the films from the Renaissance were Musical with at least four songs, some having as many as eight. Many of the songs in this era, were powerful, epic songs, which were much più common in this time than the prior Disney movies. These included songs like “Circle of Life”, “Out There”, and “Colors of the Wind”. Many of Disney’s most well known songs are also in this era, including “A Whole New World”, “Beauty and the Beast”, and “Hakuna Matata”. The early four films of the Renaissance with songs (The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King) in particular are very famous for their songs, and this era has a reputation for very good Musica indeed.

10. The Rescuers Down Under



Songs: None

Lacking songs from its movie entirely, The Rescuers Down Under is the only movie from the Renaissance that was not a musical. Since the Renaissance has many popolare songs, the sole movie with no songs was removed with a near-unanimous total.


9. Tarzan



Songs: (5)

Son of Man
Strangers Like Me
Trashin’ The Camp
Two Worlds
You’ll Be in My cuore

Tarzan was the first movie with songs to be removed in the Renaissance section. User reaction to Tarzan’s soundtrack was generally very good, with some users really enjoying the soundtrack. This soundtrack though, is quite different from the others, mostly because uniquely in this movie, Phil Collins, who was not Canto for any character, sang most of the songs in this film. The reaction to this soundtrack was mixed, with some loving Phil Collins’s singing, and others wishing that the character sang more.


8. Hercules



Songs: (7)

A stella, star is Born
Go the Distance
I Won’t Say I’m In Love
Long Ago
One Last Hope
The Gospel Truth
Zero to Hero

With unique peppy songs, Hercules has generally a bright soundtrack with the muses Canto multiple songs, such as “Zero to Hero”. Unlike in Tarzan, the main characters do get to sing in songs. Hercules sings in “Go the Distance”, and Megara sings in “I Won’t Say I’m In Love”, arguably one of the most popolare songs on Hercules. People like the songs in Hercules quite a lot, but they like the songs from the superiore, in alto seven Film of this very popolare musical era even more.


7. Pocahontas



colori of the Wind
Just Around the Riverbend
Listen With Your Heart
Mine, Mine, Mine
Savages
Steady as the Beating Drum
Virginia Company

With this movie, one song in particular is very popular- “Colors of the Wind”. This song endears many, often even those who do not like the film so much, with its thoughtful lyrics and impressive score. The other songs in the movie were generally less popular, and some fan viewed as though the other songs in the movie fell a bit flat in comparison. The songs were not considered to be among the most powerful of the Renaissance, which produced some very powerful songs in the six films above.


6. Mulan



Songs: (4)

A Girl Worth Fighting For
Honor to Us All
I’ll Make a Man Out of You
Reflection

This movie features many songs, including the very popolare “I’ll Make a Man Out of You,” but features less than the typical movie in the Renaissance. The songs in here range from the strongly-toned “I’ll Make a Man Out of You” to the somewhat sad toned “Reflection” to the happy toned but demanding high expectation full “Honor to Us All”. The songs here are very solid, but there aren’t just that many in this movie.


5. The Hunchback of Notre Dame



Songs: (8)

A Guy Like You
Court of Miracles
God Help The Outcasts
Heaven’s Light
Hellfire
Out There
The Bells of Notre Dame
Topsy Turvy

With very compelling songs, The Hunchback of Notre Dame is one movie that truly stands out on its own soundtrack. The tones in these songs vary from a desire song “Out There”, a truly evil villain song, “Hellfire”, light comedy songs “Topsy Turvy” and “A Guy Like You”, a dark comedy song “Court of Miracles”, a sad song, “Heaven’s Light (Reprise)” and a soft ballad song “God Help the Outcasts” . With all of these songs, The Hunchback of Notre Dame was chosen da fan to be the superiore, in alto song from the Renaissance not in the “Fearsome Foursome”. But the general consensus was that while The Hunchback’s songs were good, they were not quite comparable to the songs from the “Fearsome Foursome”.


4. The Little Mermaid



Songs: (8)

Daughters of Triton
baciare the Girl
Les Poissons
Fathoms Below
Part of Your World
Poor Unfortunate Souls
Under the Sea
Vanessa’s Song

The first film of the Renaissance also happens to be among the most highly praised films of the era for its music. This movie features somewhat calypso songs sung da Sebastian “Under the Sea”, “Kiss the Girl”, dark songs sung da the villain, “Poor Unfortunate Souls”, “Vanessa’s Song”, and probably the most popolare songs was Ariel’s sole solo of the movie, “Part of Your World”. The songs here are praised for their power, but they are also felt to have not as much importance as the songs in the Film ranked above.


3. Aladdin



Songs: (5)

A Whole New World
Arabian Nights
Friend Like Me
One Jump Ahead
Prince Ali

Many of the songs in this movie are very fast paced like “One Jump Ahead” o “Prince Ali”. However, the one big exception to this is arguably the most popolare song in the movie, “A Whole New World”. This popolare Amore song is generally loved da most. However, fan view in general that, while Aladdin has very good songs, there is just no competing with the superiore, in alto two candidates about their music.


2. The Lion King



Songs: (5)

Be Prepared
Can te Feel the Amore Tonight
cerchio of Life
Hakuna Matata
I Just Can’t Wait to Be King

With one of what is generally considered the most rip-roaring soundtrack, The Lion King features fun tunes like in Aladdin, (“I Just Can’t Wait to be King” and “Hakuna Matata”), a villain song characteristic to the Renaissance era (“Be Prepared”) one of what is often considered to be one of the most romantic of all of Disney’s Amore songs (“Can te Feel the Amore Tonight”) and the epic opening “Circle of Life”. The songs here are very popular, and few found many faults with them. Perhaps the fact that this film had not as many songs in general as the superiore, in alto scorer of the Renaissance might have contributed to it not getting the superiore, in alto slot.


1. Beauty and the Beast



Songs: (6)

Beauty and the Beast
Belle
Be Our Guest
Gaston
Something There
The Mob Song

With lengthy songs that take up about a quarter of the movie, Beauty and the Beast has much loved songs in it, including “Belle” and “Gaston”, introducing the characters in their songs to us, “Be Our Guest” being the film’s light number, and a dark number, “The Mob Song”. The film also has two Amore songs in it, “Something There,” a sweet Amore song summarizing the changes in Belle and Beast’s relationship, and arguably the most famous and loved of all the songs in the movie, “Beauty and the Beast” with its famous ballroom sequenced. Loved and endeared da many, the general consensus about Beauty and the Beast’s songs is that they are truly wonderful, just like the movie.
