@@RealMichaelAfton_notclickbait wow u got all the good ones
Can you do more? Personally, I’d love to see some from Barbie as the Island princess like “I need to know” and from others too!
Can you please listen so some songs from Littest Pet Shop from 2012 please please!!!
Ok so in the Barbie movies, it's Barbie AS (name). This is because in Barbie lore, Barbie is an actor. She stars in all of these movies, aside from a Fairy Secret and Fashion Fairytale, and the shows. These focus on her as an actor, but aside from that, she's just playing a role.
Yes hence why she often has a different name in her movies
Yes, except for the very first three, where Barbie is talking to (her sister?) small Barbie and tells a story which is the movie
@@TacShovel hard to look up the name it had been so long. Kelly. They turned Kelly into Chelsea in 2011
Explained perfectly!!
YE! And I think that’s incredibly cool lmao
I love how much you misinterpreted that first song. Barbie(pink dress) is in an arranged marriage with a man she’s never met who’s a king of a different kingdom because of the kingdom’s poverty. Blue dress is a victim of the poverty and is “in debt” to the woman she works for. Both of them are forced to do things they don’t want to because of poverty and their entire lives are controlled by someone else.
Eh typical Matthew. He is watching these out of context
Well the song does sound unbalanced even with context
@@amdete8254 the song is very balanced. After all what's the point of living if you're forced to do things? Or having to do things you don't want to do, but have to do it because igs gheif duty? Living a life you don't want to live is very emotionally draining. Not to mention depressing. /lh
@@bituinlno it’s not balanced hahaha living in privilege/not needing to worry about debt + being in an arranged marriage or working as a “slave” and worrying about debt. I think I know which situation I wouldn’t want to be in.
@@MuseHathor what are you talking about? They both have to worry about their money problems. Both situations are hard. Both of them lack the freedom to live. We shouldn’t disregard the other. You wouldn’t say someone has it easy just because they are rich would you? Even though they are struggling emotionally. /lh
Princess and the Pauper actually has a cute little fandom that gush over how adorable these two are and they have pointed out that the pauper was downplaying her situation and she was the one initiating the entire "I'm just like you" chorus to not make the princess feel bad for her. They said there was no way making a gown was as easy as she described it as in the song compared to how it would be done realistically, and also bc technically she wouldn't be having such a hard time if it was that easy. Also, she didn't mention any financial problems to the princess.
Also we get to see how hard it is to make dresses when Annalise is locked in Madame Carps shop trying to help Erica's friend.
thats so cute actually!
@@gurglequeen433 I really love how during that scene the other seamstress who’s name escapes me is like “your highness you really don’t have to help” and Annelise is like “but I can’t leave you to do it all alone!” And I’m like “girl that’s code for please stop ‘helping’”
“Do you want context?” “No thanks!” *Proceeds to criticize poetic scene without context*
To clarify Mathew: In the song “Girl like You” the Princess and the Pauper are bonding over the validation of Trauma. While Erika(Pauper) is an indentured servant and Annalise is a Princess in an economically arranged Marriage, they both have the same valid feeling of feeling trapped and helpless in their life while also feeling a responsibility to complete the role the world has assigned them. And despite their situations are totally different, their feelings and emotions are both valid.
It’s a story told mostly through dialogue alone, because 2004 Barbie Movies didn’t have a super large animation budget to create flashy action or affects-which is why you’ll see mostly animal sidekicks performing said role in the early movies-and had to tell their story through the character interactions alone. You should totally watch the full movie-and especially listen to the dialogue-because it’s truely a work of art for its time
Thank you 😭 that's really well articulated! I usually like his reactions a lot so I was excited when i saw he was doing barbie songs! But his reaction to that song was driving me crazy. Barely made it through with him just missing the point so badly after explicitly refusing to get the context. I feel like even just watching "Free" first, before "a girl like you", would have helped that a lot.
@@daisy3525 He really should have reacted to Free first. It contextualizes the whole set up within one song. Plus it's so good, my favorite line is always "Duty means doing the things your heart may well regret". Such a deep line
@@turnipcrazy4602 oh, that line embedded itself in my brain and altered my brain chemistry. And it speaks volumes to the beneath-surface similarities between those two, their shared drive to do what is right and what their duty calls for, even as opposed to what they truly desire. Their circumstances are different but their core struggle is the same and that line in particular encompassed all of that so well!
Honestly, Barbie songs had no right being as good as they were, but hell if they didn't deliver on everything.
Thank you for saying this! It bugged me how he couldn’t see that..
Nerd 🤓
How is it possible to listen to Princess and the Pauper songs without going over How To Be A Princess? Matt, you know you gotta make another video with that one included now right? ;)
yes this!!
Exactly!
And something from The Diamond Castle✨
I would also love to hear The Cat's Meow and his thoughts on it
please listen to all of the princess and the pauper songs they are wonderful with such a good message. I love free and the cat's meow the best!
Okay more Barbie songs:
Free (Princess and the Pauper)
To Be a Princess (Princess and the Pauper)
If You Love Me For Me (Princess and the Pauper)
Connected (Diamond Castle)
Two Voices (Diamond Castle)
I'm a little biased toward these movies but the songs are really good
I would like to add Here I Am from Princess and the Popstar.
Valid
@@NightRainPanda that's fair. I don't like the movie but that song does go pretty hard
He also needs to see I need to know from Barbie the Island Prince!!
@@mikaylacooney That song slaps, it's the only thing that got me to try and finish the movie, so I can hear it again later in the movie.
“What royal duties dose a princesses have?”
“Watch the movie” 😂😂😂😂😂
Fun Fact! The voice actress for Barbie also does Starlight Glimmer from My Little Pony!
Holy Hades. Favorite pony just got better
:)
Oh crap I hear it now.
Oh I can hear it now. Also Starlight's shutting twilight down just got more funny. It's Barbie telling the toy line that tried to break it into the fashion doll line with equestria girls to be quiet
Oh, I can hear it and I just know this now 😀😀
I mean, the girl in the blue dress in the first song is the one who insisted they were alike. The princess was like, “you sure about that? Because I definitely just said I get my breakfast on a silver tray and you definitely just said you have fetch your own eggs from a mile away…”
It’s actually really sweet and generous-hearted of Erika (blue dress) to find common ground with Anneliese (pink dress) instead of being envious or bitter.
I think it says a lot that the pauper in the princess in the pauper was the one to first say that they were similar. It would sound high handed starting from the princess, however from the pauper it’s actually quite daring and empowering. In another story if a peasant girl dared to say that she was no different than the princess it would probably kill her. They are nearly identical and have similar personalities and are able to empathize with the common reality of being born into responsibilities.
The message I am a girl like you is also way better than a I’m not other girls mindset.
That's why I'm mad when I hear people say that Annaliese was stuck up
The fact none of the Diamond Castle songs are here is a crime, that whole soundtrack slaps
My personal favorite is "We're gonna find it", but as i said, the entire thing is amazing
Someone actually likes the diamond castle? This is the greatest discovery (Its my favorite Barbie movie but everyone I speak to dislike or even hate it)
@@engelsdrache9695 Yeah! I love that movie, although it scared the f out of me as a child lol
My favourite is two voices one song, it's just such a nice and wholesome song!
The fact nothing from Diamond Castle was here was such a shocker! Best songs ever!
Ahhh Diamond Castle is my favourite Barbie movie! Amd both that, and the Island Princess soundtracks slap!
*"Do you want to know the context?"* "No."
"Why is this blah blah blah?" *"WATCH THE MOVIE!"*
YOU'RE SPEAKING FOR ALL OF US! THANK YOU!!
If you like these you would definitely love monster high songs they’re all so good
YES.
YESSSSS ❤
YES Boo York had some great songs (in my opinion)
YES!
YES!
You ABSOLUTELY NEED to listen to Barbie as the Island Princess. All of the songs are so good! Especially Her On My Island and I Need To Know
Yes!!
Exactly
Yes! I Need to Know has so beautiful harmonies
YESSSSSSS
I was thinking this all the video haha, I hope he reacts to those songs
I can't stop watching the part where you say "uh the queen" at the same time. That's hysterical 😂
I always have “Shooting Star” stuck in my head. Star Light Adventure is a super underrated modern Barbie movie!
Star Light Adventure is my favorite barbie movie!! It’s so pleasing to look at and almost all of the characters are fun to watch, I also just love the concept behind it :)
Oh my God! Yes. I used to listen to it when I was in high school, to overcome my stress of final exams hahahaha.
Same! Such a beautiful song in a very underrated movie.
Getting ready for Mathew to over analyze every line of these songs
Not sure if someone has already mentioned this, but the actor giving that absolutely insane villain performance is actually Martin Short. He brought his all to that role, absolutely iconic
Objectively the best barbie villain, absolutely iconic
I love him since this song! First time I heard 'How can I refuse' I could not stop staring in absolute amazement. Martin Short is truly the best and this song always makes me smile :D Spectacular song and iconic performance!!
I need a live action remake, and Martin short needs to just play Preminger
Okay but NOBODY talks about the very very underrated and *imo* best barbie movie, Barbie and the three muskateers. I dont even remember the songs I just remember the storyline and watching it sm lmaooo
fr tho, I don't get why it gets slept on so much; it's my over all favorite Barbie movie along with Princess Charm School (both having 4 girls too lol). I used to watch it so much as a kid, and I just recently rewatched it after years with my cousin and her parents when I visited them. We all actually liked the plot (it quite aged-well for me not just out of nostalgia), as it's mostly action-comedy with Barbie and the three low-key "Mulan-ing", fitting for all of us. Also, the songs slaps especially towards the fight scenes. "All for One, One for All" and "Unbelievable" are such a bops.
@@k.Angela yes!! For me as a kid I was obsessed with the 12 dancing princesses, and then three musketeers it just holds up so much cause there is actual like plot!! I loved the idea of the charm school, like genuinely so much and really wanted to see it but when I did I was kind of disappointed 😭 lollll idk why
@@sprinkles06 with 12 dancing princesses, I actually love how it had a good plot too! I just didn't watch it as much because the villain poisoning the king and her throwing away his medicine was too dark and triggering for me lmaoo I felt so bad for how the king and the daughters were separated and that he was manipulated😭 I mean, props for showing other people can be cunning and evil once desperate for power in a kids movie.
Funny how all three (Musketeers, Charmschool and 12 dancing princesses) involve a royal in an attempted murder from the villain lol.
Princess and The Pauper is a proper musical that you need to listen to the entire soundtrack of get it. The song 'Free' sets up the entire premise. They are both trapped in different ways.
Another great song from Rock’n Royals is “What if I Shine”. Definitely the best song in the movie
Also the song “I need to Know” from Barbie the Island Princess is a certified banger
Yes! Barbie unironically has so much incredible music, I’m looking forward to the soundtrack for the new movie, even if there aren’t any original songs for it! :)
Matthew, PLEASE do more! If you want songs with more singing harmonies, rock’s royals is good, but also Diamond Castle songs are so good!
I'm so happy to see others appreciating the remarkable soundtrack to Barbie Rock 'n' Royals, I feel like it is extremely underrated and it is one of my favourite Barbie movies because of the music. Love your reactions and I hope you react to more Barbie!
The music in that movie is next level
I was about to say this, Rock n' royals is so underrated I feel like he needs a whole video dedicated to watching it.
@@JoyceTheTuffPuff omg yessss. cuz a lot of barbie fans acutally focus more in the old ones
Mathew loving Barbie songs is amazing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
"does she work in a sweat shop??"
YES, SHE DOES! she's making dresses to pay off her parents' debt!!
and yes, the princess is in an arranged marriage to save her kingdom, but she's in love with someone else
The songs from Barbie As The Island Princess have always been my favorites, so I highly recommend I Need To Know from that movie.
To Be A Princess from Princess And The Pauper is iconic.
The songs from Diamond Castle are also good, but I can't remember any of the names off the top of my head.
The villain songs from Barbie as The Island Princess live in my head rent free. The rats’ cheese song has no right to go as hard as it does, and the evil mom casually singing about murdering her husband for the crown, to her daughter no less, is iconic
@@calmwaveofchaos1878 I completely forgot that she was singing that to her daughter
Iconic indeed
The fact that I also said " uh the Queen" at the right time and in the right cadence has me rolling on the on my bed in laughter😂😂
Such a missed opportunity to listen to Barbie and the Island Princess songs. “I need to know” is HOUGH 😩👌
Funfact canonically Barbie is actually an actor in the barbie movies and shes playing a role in nearly all the barbie movies (I can't think of the films she's not acting in rn 😭). This can also be used to explain why in a lot of films she goes by a different name
Fairy secret and fashion tale :) plus I think in the newer movies it’s actually barbie’s life but they take place before those other two? Idk I‘ e only watched the old movies, but I believe those are the two movies you were trying to think of :)
Pretty much in all the newer movies it’s just her life with her sisters, no fictional universe
I almost started crying when they showed all those different barbie movies during the last song... like damn
I've watched nearly every single barbie movie in existence and I'm just in love with all of them lol. And I can't believe I forgot HOW HARD THE SONGS SLAP
I feel like adults completely miss the point of the "I'm just like you" song. It IS true that their lives are complete opposites. However - that's just their circumstances. Social position doesn't make you who you are inside: they have same dreams of freedom from responsibilities. *They're similar, because they are simply "girls".*
Now we need Mathew to watch Barbie movies
Andrew: Would you like to know the context?
Matt's brain: Say yes, Say yes, Say yes
Matt's mouth: No
😂❤
If you ever do another one of these for barbie I recommend:
- We're Gonna Find It (Barbie and the Diamond Castle)
- Two Voices, One Song (Barbie and the Diamond Castle)
- Free (Barbie as The Princess and the Pauper)
- Shine (Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses)
The important thing to note in I am a Girl Like You is when Ericka says, "Madame Carpe will make me pay" anything she has to pay Madame Carpe for is more added to the debts she's been trying to pay off her whole life, so everything she eats is something she's still struggling to work off.
I do want to point out that the girl in the blue dress 1) asks the pink one "and you?" before she explains her breakfast, so I really don't think she's being a jerk, she's answering a question and 2) the blue one is the one that claims the two are alike. I've seen a lot of people criticize the pink one for trivialize the blue one's struggles but, she really doesnt...
This song is about them bonding over the fact that neither one has control of their own lives not their economic status. Which he definitely missed. He should’ve reacted to Free first
@@paige8453xactly! Thank you for saying it. The juxtaposition is the point. Their problems are drastically different in severity, but at the same time, the root of their problems are the same. They are both being stripped of their humanity and agency to serve others soley because they were born into that role, so even though their lives are drastically different, they are the same on a human level and share the same feelings. That's the point of the story. So many people seem to miss that, even Barbie fans.
You're right, Free would have definitely put that more into context.
The fact that he refused context and then started criticising Annalise was really hard to get through without raging…
And also the fact that he downplayed the duties of a royal - they literally have the lives of all their people depending on their actions and decisions. They may have material luxuries but even in real history it’s a well-established fact that those material luxuries come at the price of their freedom - if the need arises they themselves (their lives and marriages) become pieces to trade and barter with.
I honestly think part of it may just be that he’s a guy and thinking from a male perspective (which is why he doesn’t see why Annalise’s situation is actually perfectly comparable to Erica’s).
Annalise is smart and perfectly capable of leading her Kingdom but because of her gender most of the people around her see her not as a potential leader but basically a vase to be sold off for marriage (as though her only worth is to be traded off). Additionally, she’s not allowed to pursue her love for the sciences or behave in any way that is different from how a princess should be (ie the stereotypical feminine hobbies and skills etc). Added to that is the fact that she is about to be sold off in marriage to a stranger and because it is her duty as princess and for the sake of the many she can’t even reject that marriage.
Erika is suffering because she is unable to pursue her dream of being a singer due to being duty bound to the owner of the dress shop. Annalise is similarly suffering because she is being forced into a mould to fit the needs of her people while also being sold off to a stranger and she is also similarly unable to escape because of duty.
Rock n Royal has some of the best songs that I've heard in any of the barbie films I've seen by far
Definitely recommend that movie
FINALLY, As a 23 yr old woman who grew up and watched EVERY SINGLE barbie movie.. I always felt embarrassed that I really loved barbie films and especially the music like Hope has wings & the song from three musketeers.. like It just has good messages and BARBIE GAVE ME MY CONFIDENCE... As an adult now that heavily still loves barbie, I don't regret it. The music is just so inspirational.
Just watch the movies I’m a 23 year old but I’m still a Barbie girl deep down seen every Barbie movies and can’t wait for the live action
These Barbie movies were most of my childhood, this’ll be fun!
Also you need to listen to the Barbie song “I Need to Know” from the Island Princess. Lots of beautiful harmonies
Uuuugh you know we will need more of these Barbie song reactions now! There's so many good ones!
I really recommend connected from the diamond castle, can you keep a secret from a fairy secret and queen of the waves from a mermaid tale!! THESE SONGS SHAPED MY CHILDHOOD!!!
OMG yes Queen Of The Waves was my childhood. Watched that movie like every week.
ah god how did i forget the mermaid tale songs!!
This absolutely has to be a new series of yours! There are so many incredible songs in the Barbie franchise. Another one from my childhood is Sofia the First, which has so much gold. If you check those out, here are three of the best in my opinion:
1. Bigger is Better
2. Play With Us
3. A Kingdom of My Own
Fun fact Preminger is voiced by Martin Short, the actor who plays Jack Frost in The Santa Clause 3 film and Only Murders in the Building.
My fav barbie movie is Rock n'Royals and you have no idea how happy it makes me seeing you react to one of it's songs. The songs are absolute bop and I still sing the finale mashup every now and then. I don't usually see people reacting to this movie or the secret door(my #2) And this made me so happy. I'm 17 now and Barbie will always have a special place in my heart.
You Can Tell She's A Princess is ABSOLUTELY NEEDED!!!!
I really, really hope you continue this! Watching a RUclipsr actually compliment Barbie movie content rather than berate it is refreshing to someone who grew up mesmerized by their songs.
And though I want to spout out recommendation after recommendation, I really hope you give Barbie as the island princess a chance. Personally I think every single song in there is great, but if you listen to “right here in my arms” the first version and the climax version, I really believe you will love it.
This was an awesome video!
1. We need to skip past this whole "out of context" bit and just get a full Princess and the Pauper reaction. Please and thank.
2. Didn't know I needed this but now I will happily accept a collab reaction with you and caitlin mckillop for the 80s treasure that is Barbie and the Rockers (or the Sensations as my old VHS cover sleeve said for some reason)
Not gonna lie, I would love to watch Matthew's full movie reaction to the Princess and the pauper. It's a wild movie but I love it so much!!
okay, just for context in the second song: if the queen dies Barbie would become queen. if she married striker (or whatever his name was, he's fabulous but unmemorable) he would not become King. "A ruling queen's husband is called a Prince Consort because the title of King is only given to a monarch who inherits the throne and can reign." As he has no royal blood in him, he has no claim to the throne after Barbie's death, as there would be many people within her bloodline who the throne would go to. for example, if Queen Lizzie 2 had died before Phillip, he had a technical claim to the tthrone as he was an estranged cousin of hers many times removed, BUT as she had children, they have a stronger claim to the throne. Also, HI from England :)
Princess and the Pauper actually takes place in England so I'm assuming this is accurate
I love the wholesome content in the video. Barbie movies have always brought me a sense of joy because of nostalgia but now I have more appreciation of the quality and hard work that was put into every movie. 😊
The songs from the Barbie movies were always amazing. You should obviously do more of them.
This movies and these songs were HUGE parts of my childhood
Loved this!! Now I need more barbie reactions, either songs or out of context moments
So, I think the important takeaway of "Girl Like You" is that it shouldn't matter how different the problems are. Just because one person might have things comparatively worse, that does not necessarily negate the problems of someone who has things comparatively better.
Erika (the girl in blue) is a very positive-minded kind girl, while the princess is sheltered and naive. They've met and want to be friends, so Erika finds common ground. They both long to escape their problems and follow their dreams. They're both trapped in situations that hurt their very spirit. Regardless of the differing severity, they have the same problem, and they each deserve to be free of it.
The very root of the problem is the same, so they are the same. Thus, they understand each other.
(Also, their singing voices were by the same voice actor. That's probably why it's suck an amazing harmony.)
Barbie Princess and the pauper has always been my favourite nostalgia movie,one of the best movies of all times
I NEED you to hear the songs from Barbie and the Diamond Castle. (especially the opening song, "Two Voices, One Song". The harmonies are so good)
Me and my friend always sang " IM JUST LIKE YOU, YOURE JUST LIKE ME " all the time in my kitchen, and we did the dance too 😂 i miss those times.. we were like 15 lmao
PLEASE make a part two. As someone who grew up on Barbie movies, these are absolutely amazing. I especially love the songs 'Free' from Princess and the Pauper, 'I Need To Know' from the Island Princess and all songs from Princess and the Popstar and the songs from Diamond Castle. 'All For One' from Three Musketeers is also a banger.
PLEASE DO THIS AGAIN WITH MORE BARBIE SONGS!!!!❤❤❤❤
i grew up listening to barbie songs and they are such a pop
This made me want to rewatch all my favourite barbie movies haha. Please, please do more of these!
You should do more Barbie movie music! Island Princess (honestly they're all amazing), 12 Dancing Princesses (Listen to Shine from this one!) and Diamond Castle (another where they're all amazing) are my favorites!
Early Barbie movies (which I actually saw, as opposed to the later ones which were better in that aspect but I had grown up one year too much),
had waaay better (and catchier) music than animation. That and they had consistently unforgettable plotlines that as a kid, genuinely embedded themselves in your brain.
So the franchise was set in stone from the very start. (And kids could not tell good from bad animation.)
Barbie was my childhood 😭
This was really fun, loved the video and i'd love a part 2 aswell. Feel like theres a lot of barbie songs you'd like, the songs from charm school "(you can tell she's a princess" and "on top of the world") and the songs from diamond castle ("connected" and "two voices one song" espeically) are some of my favorites, rock 'n royals have some other great songs aswell ^-^
Oh we're doing this now? Well I suppose I recommend the songs in the Monster High musical film. Like 'Search Inside', 'Empire', 'It Can't Be Over', and 'Steal the Show'.
Oh my god, I'm so happy you reacted to these!! Here are some other good barbie songs that I recommend if you do a part 2:
- On Top of the World
- Here I am / Princess want to have fun
- We're Gonna Find It
- To Be a Princess / To Be a Popstar
the end song showing so many old barbie movies was so nostalgic 😭
Oh boy here we go.
The other villain barbie song that i think is really good is the one from island princess. “Love is for peasants” i think it’s called?
FUN FACT. Kelly Sheridan voices pink princess and blue girl so that’s why it sounds so guys Lmao
FUN FACT. Martin shirt is Preminger, evil how can I refuse guy :)
I don't know ask Celestia what type of duties a princess have.
These movies are such a big part of my childhood, the music especially! I'm so glad you enjoyed them! If you like the harmonies in "I am a girl like you" I'd recommend "free" and "if you love me for me" from the same movie. Also the choral arrangements in Barbie and the 12 dancing princesses are disturbingly incredible. Have a nice day!
I love that you love the Rock 'n Royals medley so much. To clarify: there are two different schools Rock and Royalty and they put on a compitions between the two schools for the land. Whoever won got the land adjacent. Rock and Royalty students didn't like this so with the help of Princess Courtney (Barbie) and Erica (a Pop star) who accidently got sent to the wrong schools they decided to work together to save the schools. But there is a twist and I'm not telling you what it is.
You should do Princess and the Popstar songs! It’s my favorite Barbie movie!
How does someone let Matthew react to Rock ‘n Royals without listening to “What If I Shine”??
'Barbie of Swan Lake', 'Barbie in the Nutcracker', 'Barbie as Rapunzel', 'Barbie and the Three Musketeers' and 'Barbie Presents Thumbelina' are titles reflecting that Barbie was portrayed as an actress or storyteller. Its meant to symbolise little girls playing with their Barbie pretending to be a Princess and such. It's a super smart strategy! Barbie continued this on and off until 2015.
I... Disagree with the statement about not feeling sorry for royalty ahah. Princess Anneliese's story is all about how she's royalty so she cannot live independently and make choices for herself - similar how Erika cannot live her life as she works for debt. They are different, but alike, hex the first song. Anneliese was in love with her best friend/tutor and didn't want to be in an arranged marriage. Yes, Nick and Nack *are* some of the best Barbie movie characters, and Preminger (who sings "How Can I Refuse") was voiced by Martin Short which is why his voice changes pitch.
Context is important for these songs, so you might wanna watch the movies next time to better understand the plot explained aha
As someone who knows nothing about how music actually works I just love listening to people explain and get excited about things in my favourite childhood classics like this. I seriously hope he makes another video with more songs!
The villain in Princess and the Pauper is voiced by the legendary Martin Short! He is one of my favorite actors ever!
in the next part you should chekck out Love Is For Peasants from Barbie as The Island Princess
Barbie in The Island Princess has my favourite barbie songs please do "I need to know"!
More Barbie songs you have to listen to that are Broadway level good are:
I need to know (Barbie the Island Princess)
Right here in my arms reprise (Barbie the Island Princess)
Love is for peasants (Barbie the Island Princess)
Here I am (Barbie Princess and the Pop-star)
To be a princess (Barbie Princess and the Pauper)
I want it all (Barbie the Secret Door)
Highly suggest the songs from the Island Princess as they are peak barbie songs!!
Lol, I'd love to see you watch the entire Barbie Princess and the Pauper. That whole movie is truly something.
100% should listen to I need to know from Island Princess. Probably one off my favorites besides Cats Meow and If you love me for me from Princess and the Pauper.
Barbie rock n' royals is my favorite!!! THE SONGS ARE UP THEREE
Princess and the pauper has the best songs, hands down! When I was around 8 I got the movie (vhs lol) as a gift from my mom. Then years later, eighth grade now with smartphone and laptop I rewatched this movie and I instantly put the songs on my RUclips songs playlist (no Spotify at the time😂) and at this point 10 years later after I’ve last binged these songs in 2013, I still have them installed in my head. Literally just tested it again. Even to the point that I can talk the inbetween (bc the RUclips video I had, was a compilation someone did).
Man things like that are so random with our brains lol bc like we didn’t want to memorize it but it still happened. Informal learning for the win.
I don’t know the English name since I watched it in German but the song in the bathroom with her cat was the best banger.
I havent watched barbie movies in years but 'if i had magic' was so good i wanted to watched it
Finale mash up is honestly one of my favorites, but there are so many more really good ones i think you should listen to as well
Princess and the pauper was in my top three favorite barbie movies for so long- I love the "I'm just like you" song so much 😭
(secret of the magic door was too- Love the songs in it. Barbie was my childhood.)
Seeing the Princess and the Pauper one brought back my childhood SO HARD. I loved seeing that song again. It's been almost 15 years since I last heard that song tbh.
This made me laugh so hard! Hope you'll do a part two! I'd love to see your reaction to I Want It All.
Ok, Barbie has some absolute BANGERS. Some movies I would suggest finding songs from are Big City Big Dreams, The Barbie Diairies, Princess and the Popstar, and Fashion Fairytale or Fairy Secret!
Not having any Diamond Castle songs is a federal crime and I cannot allow this to stand!

From Barbie as The Island Princess
- I Need to Know (there’s both a soundtrack and pop version, and honestly I think both sound great)
