Disney took one of the biggest risks making a movie about religion, and with religious figures, which was The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. Esmeralda deserved the #1 pick on this list. But also The Nightmare Before Christmas is an absolute masterpiece of a film putting the fright of Halloween, and the joy of Christmas together.⛪🕯💀🎃🎄
A bigger risk would be sticking to the source material and making Claude Frollo an Archdeacon instead of just a religious Judge, despite whatever backlash may come.
I agree with you. I AM surprised that Windsong from Mighty Joe Young and Bella Notte from Lady and the Tramp and So This is Love and a Whole New World weren't even MENTIONED on the list. That's just a travesty. And When You Wish Upon a Star, as well.
Hunchback is Disney’s most adult and possibly controversial film (because of the religious content) and have some most amazing songs. I wish they had brought the stage show to Broadway.
True it's not Disney film but Disney actually owns the rights to it now. From what I read because I was wondering who owned it the movie rights that the company that originally owned the rights sold it to Disney so...... now Anastasia really is a Disney film. Makes me wonder if they got a remake.🤔
My favorite is “God help the outcasts.” in the Hunchback of Notre Dame. I always found it so moving how Esmerelda was praying for others even though she had it really rough.. while others in the church prayed for love, wealth, fame, etc… she prayed for the Lord to bless others “less lucky then herself.” Simply a beautiful song, meaning, and character.
I love that song! I even sang it in church, and in concert with my college choir. I cried when I came to "I know so many less lucky than I." I thought about the homeless that my church fed. I used to help out every Sunday.
@@peggyknecht5551 that’s beautiful!! I have never heard a church choir or church band/singer sing this in church, more should! It is such a beautiful Christian song about the real meaning of Christianity.. putting others before yourself and praying for others. It’s so beautiful💕💕
@@jfhfhfhhhdjfhf563 My old church wouldn't allow me to sing it because it was too controversial. We had members that didn't like that we fed the homeless in our church hall. I always thought that we needed to take care of them. The bible says that we need to love everyone. I actually sang the song in the church that I go to now because they believe as I do. I also sang Candle on the Water. But, I put a religious spin on it. I talked about Jesus being our light in tough times. That He is our candle leading us through the storms of life. I changed the repeat at the end to "He'll never let you go....He'll never let you go...He'll never let you go."

The Hunchback of Notre Dame was my favorite Disney movie as a kid. It's underrated. Also Once Upon a Dream from Maleficent was a hauntingly beautiful song...
One of the things I love about Sally in "Nightmare" is that even though she loves Jack more than anyone, she's the only one who understands that what he wants to do is wrong and the only one who takes steps to stop him. True, Jack has to rescue her at the climax, but that's only because she was brave enough to take action in the first place and attempt to rescue Sandy Claws. "She's the only one who makes sense in this insane asylum," indeed.
I remember the first time I heard Jessie sing "When She Loved Me" in the theater. My daughters couldn't understand why I cried so hard. It still tears me up 20 years later
Remember Me and You'll Be In My Heart, i cry every time, it reminds me of my first pet rat, he was like my child, it broke my heart when he went 😭 great, now I'm crying 😭
"I See the Light" from "Tangled (2011 film)", "Reflection" from "Mulan (1998 film)", and "The Next Right Thing" from "Frozen II" are definitely my favorite haunting beautiful Disney songs.
@@coliesnow3141 The Next Right thing is the one song I have a hard time listening to due to the fact three months before Frozen 2 came out I lost my maternal grandmother to dementia/Alzheimer's
I can never talk about "It's Quiet Uptown" without crying. It shows me that sometimes I have to get through the grief, but not alone. I've lost my godparents and I'm still a mess, but that song has actually HELPED me. It's probably the most important song in "Hamilton" because it actually has such a powerful message. Lin Manuel Miranda's lyrics never fail to hit me so hard. I'm still very emotional about it.
I remember reading somewhere that the entire cast was crying during that song. I think it was in a book I have about the musical. I believe there was some additional information about a death among one of the cast members’ families around the time they were rehearsing that song. I might be wrong on that though. I should try hunting down the book. I forgot where I put it.
What made that song all the more heartbreaking yet beautiful is that LMM sent a demo to Oskar Eustis after his son committed suicide, it helped Eustis and his family to cope with their loss because it perfectly captured the words and feelings they could not express. Every time I hear that song I think of the people who have been able to work through their grief and those that are still struggling to make sense of their loss. Every one of LMM's works has that one song that will never fail to make me cry: Hamilton- It's Quiet Uptown, In the Heights- Alabanza, Moana- Know Who You Are, Vivo- Inside Your Heart, and Encanto- Dos Oruguitas.
@@Boundwithflame23 there is a Tiktok that is circulating around that during It's Quiet Uptown, Phillipa lost a family member and Lin leaned over to her and asked her if she was ok and she told him that she was
I love “Reflection” and God Help the Outcasts”! I sang both of those songs in a recital my senior year of high school. I love “The Next Right Thing” and “I See the Light”, too.
God Help the Outcasts from Hunchback of Notre Dame was already touching when I was a child, but as an adult--especially in thinking about Esmeralda's story and discovering/exploring my own mixed black and Romani heritage and thinking about both ethnic groups' history--is particularly touching, poignant, profound and heartwrenching now. Reflection played repeatedly in my mind while I was struggling with my mental health and I would be sobbing and crying my eyes out cause I initially didn't recognize myself anymore. Thank God He brought me through that period and now I see Reflection as my recovery song.
I love both songs & Esmeralda is my one of favourite female Disney characters ever 🖤 I like to pretend the original Hunchback story doesn’t exist & the only canon one is the Disney version where Esmeralda & Quasi get to live happily ever after, not as a couple but as good friends & she gets to be with Phoebus
Reflection always moved me as a child. Probably because I have self esteem and identity issues. Now I'm 35 and overweight and I don't recognize myself and my self esteem is worse now. I used to be petite and thin.
I cried so hard as a child when I saw Dumbo cradled by his mother that i actually ran a fever. Something about it permanently changed me. Ever after, i have had tremendous compassion for children and baby animals. I became a better person, believe it or not, at a very young age. My favorite song, though, is "Kiss The Girl", even though it may seem more funny than haunting, but the tension and heartache of Ariel really comes across....
Thoughts on this list 10 Makes me cry. 9. Beautiful! I love this song. 8. This is a beautiful duet. I love Mandy Moore & have been a fan of hers for years. 7. This song & Beautiful by Christina Aguilera defined my teenage years. 6. Another song that makes me cry. 5. The imagery in this song is beautiful. I loved how the butterflies were a strong representation in this movie. 4. Thank you so much for putting this song on this list. It helped be get through my toughest times during the pandemic. I cried during this song in the theatre. 3. This song makes me think of my grandma who died of Alzheimer’s in 2014. 2. Another song that makes me cry every damn time. Honorable Mentions I love all these songs. 1. As someone with a disability & has been bullied I have always loved this song and I can relate to how Esmerelda feels. Demi Moore did a great job singing this song. Edit: Thank you to everyone who corrected me saying that Demi Moore did not sing for Esmerelda.
Baby Mine has a whole new meaning for me; I heard an 8-9 year old sing it on the most recent anniversary of my father’s death (I lost him in 2019) and I completely lost it when I heard the song.
I can relate to number one as well, also having a disability and having been bullied. Although Demi Moore did the speaking voice, it was a beautiful singer named Heidi Mollenhauer Who sang that song.
Colors of the Wind always tugs at my heartstrings. It was my grandma's favorite song. My sister used to sing and she was quite good and she'd have her sing it to her sometimes. Before she died she asked if my sister would sing it at her funeral, and she did. It always tugs at me for that
These songs are indeed hauntingly beautiful, they are such absolute classics that no one can resist them. Disney and Pixar's music departments are just that damn good at what they do!
If live action movies were included, Feed the Birds from Mary Poppins, The Age of Not Believing from Bedknobs and Broomsticks, and Candle In the Wind from Pete’s Dragon would definitely be in this video
And also Song of the south.10/10 movie anyday.And yes i'v actually seen it, several times, and I can also tell anyone who's reading this that Song of the south's controversy is stupid because it's about something that's not even there.The movie has absolutely not a SINGLE thing in it that is racist OR offensive, and it's actually an amazing movie.
When people ask me what my favorite Disney song is, no one ever remembers “God Help the Outcast,” but that’s my favorite!! So under appreciated and underrated! This list was on point!
Nightmare Before Christmas is such a masterpiece of a movie. The stop motion is immaculate, the voice actors are awesome, the songs are absolute bangers! If it was its own song, Jack and Sally’s duet in the finale would be up there: it always has me in a chokehold
I legit started silently crying when "goodbye may seem forever popped up. That movie always makes my tear up/cry. The fox and the hound is such a wonderfull movie!
I like the part in Tangled where she sees a lantern about to touch the water, and she doesn't know she just touched the one that her parents touched a few mins ago.
My favorites are... Remember me "Coco" When she love me "Toy story 2" Dos oruguitas "Encanto" The next right thing "Frozen 2" and I see the light "Tangled"
"Nobody Else But You" -The Goofy Movie This song appears after disaster brought about by betrayal and lack of communication endangers the lives of our father-son protagonists. It reminds us of the special bond shared between parents and their kids with humor and heart-warming sentimentality. My daughter was only four when this movie hit video and immediately fell in love with it. Her favorite thing to do was for the two of us to sing the song together each of us taking the parts of the characters. Rugrat, you'll always be my little Maxi, love, your Goofy Dad.
I love Frozen 2 so much because it grew with the original audience. I was very young when the original Frozen came out, and almost in high school when Frozen 2 came out, and it was so refreshing to see the characters and the story grow along with us. The Hunchback of Notre Dam is a notoriously underrated movie with an amazing soundtrack and incredible story, and the Nightmare Before Christmas never fails to give me chills.
I knew what was going to be number one. However, the scene from Moana with her grandma always makes me cry. I am extremely close to my grandma, so it got me choked. And the scene from Fox and the Hound just makes me a mess. I am also not over Dos Oruguitas by Sebastian Yatra. Listen to his music and you will not be disappointed
I remember when we saw Moana in theaters & immediately new when her grandmother passed away I immediately started crying 😭 it was so touching knowing she was guiding her in a new way
Dammit, even if it's just that short clip of coco singing along or the whole movie, my eyes ALWAYS start to tear up to the point of tears. I know it's coming and have probably seen it at least 10 times since its release, and that moment where she remembers and sings can never NOT make me cry a little!
So many of these are classics! I can't bear to listen to Baby Mine because I cry instantly when it plays. I totally agree with God Help The Outcasts being #1! I still sing along to it still. Another song that should of been mentioned also from The Hunchback Of Notre Dame is the song Out There which was Quasimodo's song, the lyrics are so powerful as well.
Hauntingly beautiful Songs in Disney movies These songs I really relate to the most and really makes me cry at each song. Reflection-Mulan God Help the Outcasts- The Hunchback of Norta Dame When she loved me- Toy Story 2 Out there- The Hunchback of Norta Dame The next right thing- Frozen 2 Love will find a way- Lion king 2
Dos Oruguitas & I See the Light are a beautiful marriage of touching music and beautiful cinematic magic. I never cared for the 2010's 3D craze in theatres (so many films that got the treatment didn't need it or it was barely noticeable), but it actually did elevate my first experience with I See the Light. I missed the option when I was finally able to see Encanto in theatres. You'll Be in My Heart rings with a particular sincerity because it was expanded from an actual lullaby Phil Collins made up to sing to his daughter, Lily, when she was young. I tear up every time. Remember Me is the only track that rivals this one for my tears haha. (We don't talk about Goodbye May seem Forever...that's a whole different beast of sadness...) Had it not been relegated to the credits, "Someday" from The Hunchback of Notre Dame would be way up here on this list. I do love God Help the Outcasts tho, and I understand why adding in Someday would've undercut both tracks' impact. Still....at least Disney put it in the live musical adaption & it's the climactic track of the Harmonious show at EPCOT, now. But I still listen to Celtic Woman's cover of it and wish Disney would do a bit more with the track, even still. It's hauntingly beautiful, defined!
For me, the most beautiful songs in Disney History are Feed the Birds from the Original Mary Poppins (sung by Julie Andrews), Where the Lost Things go from Mary Poppins Returns (I started sobbing when I first heard this song), God Help the Outcasts, Out There from The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Beauty and the Beast and there are so many others
God Help The Outcasts was appropriately placed on this list. In answer to her question, Mary was a bit of an outcast. No one believed her that Jesus was conceived in Her by the Holy Spirit, it even took a message from an angel in a dream for Joseph, her own husband, to believe her. She was very much an outcast.
That's very true. And of course, when her Son became a man, he welcomed every outcast with open arms, and did not let the ridicule of the religious authorities and other ignorant people stop him from either healing them both physically and/or emotionally.
That’s why that lyric is genius personified. The lyric is brilliant in itself but then they’re being sung by a character who has very little idea what this idea of religion is…and asks if this famed figure was an outcast. SO GOOD ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It started out strong, the Dumbo song Baby Mine still makes me cry to this day. The loving relationship of Dumbo and his mother reminds me of my mother and I, always protective of me when I was little. Also, You'll be in my Heart is very heartbreaking.
I honestly was surprised that "Candle on the Water" from Pete's Dragon was not mentioned, even as an honorable mention. Helen Reddy's song is so beautiful
I was watching Dumbo for the first time with my eldest (who's 5 right now) and she came to me with tears in her eyes to cuddle. The song still brings tears to my eyes.
One of the last lines of "God Help The Outcasts" always hits me in the heart "I thought we all were the children of God" I'm not religious anymore, but those are such heartbreaking lyrics. We're supposedly all made in God's image and He loves all his children, yet so many in the world preach like He plays favorites and everyone else is abominations. I know not all Christians are like that, I'm not saying they all are, but too many are like that...
Yeah, #2 (When She Loved Me) grabs my heart. These kinds of songs get more grabby as I age... at 76, I have a mass of them to remember, and every now & then, a new one joins the pack.
One of my favorite melancholy Disney songs is "I Will Go Sailing No More" from Toy Story when Buzz learns he really is just a toy. That scene and song pulls at the heart strings and you feel Buzz's pain. It's the song of all broken dreams...
They all moved me to tears and give me an emotional outlet when I feel so overwhelmed and sad and when nobody, not even my loved ones don’t understand me. Number 8 was used for my wedding day.
I honestly think Esmerelda was my gay awakening, not going to lie It's such an amazing film overall about isolation, corruption and discrimination that always gets me teary-eyed each time.
Hunchback of Notre Dame was one of my first exposures to racism. I'm white and grew up with many friends that were people of color and I remember being so upset and asking my family why Esmeralda was considered bad just because she was a different color. I remember it made me think of my friends and it hurt me so much that they might go through that.
Guys, I’m not even kidding…. This video made me cry. I was feeling emotional a bit in, with the grief of losing my dad and all, and I just couldn’t keep it in…. And the inclusion of Sally’s Song was a huge nail in the coffin, because the main reason I got interested in Tim Burton stuff in the first place was watching it with my dad years ago…. I just wanted to say thank you. Your video helped me release some bottled-up emotions, and I needed that! Thanks so much, love your videos!
Definitely agree with the top pick :) I always feel a welling of emotion whenever it plays. You'll Be in My Heart is another song that always has me in tears thinking of my family.
I like this list a lot! The only thing I would change is ranking 'Sally's Song' WAY higher. It's at least #5 or #4 in my opinion. Sally's such an underrated character and I think she's very multifaceted. She likes Jack, but she doesn't follow him blindly because of that infatuation. Instead, she expresses doubt about the plan to take over Christmas because she knows deep down that's not what Jack wants. He's lonely just like Sally, alienated because of his identity as Pumpkin King. She's alienated from the town because of how she was created and isolated after that. Sally always loved Jack for who he was, even when she doubted if he reciprocated. Yet...he did. Seeing someone in a new, different light-as an extension of your own heart-is so beautiful, especially if you didn't realize it for a while.
"When Somebody Loved Me" is one of the few songs that will always bring me to tears. It hits me hard every. darn. time. It is such a powerful song about love, loss, and suffering.
My mother died in December of 2019. My best friend took me to see Frozen 2, and she had avoided all spoilers about the film. It was a few weeks after my Mom's death that we saw it. Needless to say, I was crying my eyes out with Anna singing The Next Right Thing. I still cannot listen to that song without crying.
Loved your picks and agree, God Help the Outcasts is an amazing song (the stage version is every bit as haunting). I’d also add When You Wish Upon a Star (from Pinocchio) which is now the Disney theme song. Although not from the movies, Endless Night from the Lion King stage musical is arguably one of the most haunting songs in Disney repertoire.
When she loved me always hit me in the feels. I remembered that song so vividly that I took my favorite stuffed dog to college with me and she now lives permanently in my bedroom next to my husband’s very similar looking stuffed dog.
I cry everytime at the dumbo scene to the point when they released the trailer for the live action dumbo, i first saw it at the cinema when I was going to see The Meg ... i cried at the trailer as it took me right back to the original
I absolutely love the nightmare before Christmas, it's such an underrated movie besides the recognition it gets during Halloween and Christmas. One of my favorite movies of all time.
God Help The Outcasts is my favorite Disney song BECAUSE it is hauntingly beautiful. It also is one of the most relevant songs written about the corruption in the world. It's simply a masterpiece that will stand the test of time. Perfect choice for number 1!
I'm Still Here from Treasure Planet. It's not a soft quiet song, but the lyrics are moving, and the scene nearly made my mom cry the first time i showed her, it did make my sister cry.
I see you're only including songs from the animated films, but damn, when I saw this list I couldn't help but think of 'Feed the Birds' from Mary Poppins. Talk about a song that has such a quiet power and understated message

@@xeruwynn8987 I'm curious as to why they had Esmerelda nearly burned at the stake (!!!) when in the book they hang her...
@@cazia9 Probably was too graphic for Disney at the time, and easier to save a damsel from a burning than a hanging

Hunchback is Disney’s most adult and possibly controversial film (because of the religious content) and have some most amazing songs. I wish they had brought the stage show to Broadway.
"Once Upon A December" from Anastasia always gets me.
That's honestly my favorite song in the movie- So beautiful.
Anastasia Is Not A Disney Film
True it's not Disney film but Disney actually owns the rights to it now. From what I read because I was wondering who owned it the movie rights that the company that originally owned the rights sold it to Disney so......
now Anastasia really is a Disney film.
Makes me wonder if they got a remake.🤔
Anastasia is Don Bluth's most disney-esque film, so its understandable why people think its disney
the stage musical is very good.
My favorite is “God help the outcasts.” in the Hunchback of Notre Dame. I always found it so moving how Esmerelda was praying for others even though she had it really rough.. while others in the church prayed for love, wealth, fame, etc… she prayed for the Lord to bless others “less lucky then herself.” Simply a beautiful song, meaning, and character.

did it have Good Company from Oliver & company?
The Hunchback of Notre Dame was my favorite Disney movie as a kid. It's underrated.
Also Once Upon a Dream from Maleficent was a hauntingly beautiful song...
Me too.
It was mine too 🙌🏼
Once upon a dream was based on the theme from the sleeping beauty ballet composed by Tchaikovsky. It really is exquisite.
Yes! Once upon a dream! It touched my soul.
@@maddijasnyy It's too bad that Anastasia is not a Disney film, other wise I would Once upon a December on there.

Loving someone is recognizing when they’re messing up and being willing to tell them no matter the social consequences
Haven't watched Dumbo in years. I hear the first few notes of "Baby Mine" and I instantly burst into tears 😭😭
sameeee 😭😭
Sammeee😭😭😭😭😭
I thought it was only me!
Me too.😢😢😢😢
Same. And it's even worse now that I'm a mama myself. Damn it, Mojo.
I remember the first time I heard Jessie sing "When She Loved Me" in the theater. My daughters couldn't understand why I cried so hard. It still tears me up 20 years later
Ms. Mojo: “Number 10, Baby Mine, Dumbo.”
Me: “Oh God.”
*reaches for the tissue box*
Same here. I can't listen to that movie without crying that part.
Exactly!! I cry when I hear it. I cry when I sing it. I cry when I think of it!

Remember Me never fails to make me cry. Reminds me of my own grandmother who spent her last few years suffering through Alzheimer's disease.
I think i know what song is for some one forgot you but can remember again is name "remember me" from coco
Also a *hard* tearjerker. Makes the heartless part of my personality shatter to pieces.
CoCo. Always remember Hector 🙂🎵
It brings me to tears because I always remember my late cousin so we make sure to watch it on day of the dead for him
Remember Me and You'll Be In My Heart, i cry every time, it reminds me of my first pet rat, he was like my child, it broke my heart when he went 😭 great, now I'm crying 😭
The Nightmare before is Christmas is such an underrated stop-motion masterpiece.
Only gets recognition during Halloween & Christmas.
This is Halloween, This is Halloween...

I dont think you know what that word means

"I See the Light" from "Tangled (2011 film)", "Reflection" from "Mulan (1998 film)", and "The Next Right Thing" from "Frozen II" are definitely my favorite haunting beautiful Disney songs.
Tangled came out in 2010
The next right thing is the best!
I also love show yourself
@@coliesnow3141 The Next Right thing is the one song I have a hard time listening to due to the fact three months before Frozen 2 came out I lost my maternal grandmother to dementia/Alzheimer's
Don’t forget about “Once upon a December” from Anastasia, its not a disney movie, but it is heart wrenching.
I can never talk about "It's Quiet Uptown" without crying. It shows me that sometimes I have to get through the grief, but not alone. I've lost my godparents and I'm still a mess, but that song has actually HELPED me. It's probably the most important song in "Hamilton" because it actually has such a powerful message. Lin Manuel Miranda's lyrics never fail to hit me so hard. I'm still very emotional about it.
what I love about it is while it is mostly sad, it does leave a glimmer of hope at the end
I remember reading somewhere that the entire cast was crying during that song. I think it was in a book I have about the musical. I believe there was some additional information about a death among one of the cast members’ families around the time they were rehearsing that song. I might be wrong on that though.
I should try hunting down the book. I forgot where I put it.
What made that song all the more heartbreaking yet beautiful is that LMM sent a demo to Oskar Eustis after his son committed suicide, it helped Eustis and his family to cope with their loss because it perfectly captured the words and feelings they could not express. Every time I hear that song I think of the people who have been able to work through their grief and those that are still struggling to make sense of their loss. Every one of LMM's works has that one song that will never fail to make me cry: Hamilton- It's Quiet Uptown, In the Heights- Alabanza, Moana- Know Who You Are, Vivo- Inside Your Heart, and Encanto- Dos Oruguitas.
@@Boundwithflame23 there is a Tiktok that is circulating around that during It's Quiet Uptown, Phillipa lost a family member and Lin leaned over to her and asked her if she was ok and she told him that she was
I can’t hear that song without crying inside at least.
I love “Reflection” and God Help the Outcasts”! I sang both of those songs in a recital my senior year of high school. I love “The Next Right Thing” and “I See the Light”, too.
You’ll Be in my Heart still makes me cry. Kala is such an underrated mother; she raised Tarzan and loves him.
I agree. My mother passed away eight years ago. I have always been a notorious "Mama's Boy."
That song still comforts me
Phil Collins delivered on this song and the soundtrack
This will probably be our mother-son dance when my son gets married. I cry just thinking about it. 🤧🤧🤧
This is my song with my boys. I have part of it tattooed on my back.
That’s my favorite Disney song. It’s so underrated.
God Help the Outcasts from Hunchback of Notre Dame was already touching when I was a child, but as an adult--especially in thinking about Esmeralda's story and discovering/exploring my own mixed black and Romani heritage and thinking about both ethnic groups' history--is particularly touching, poignant, profound and heartwrenching now.
Reflection played repeatedly in my mind while I was struggling with my mental health and I would be sobbing and crying my eyes out cause I initially didn't recognize myself anymore. Thank God He brought me through that period and now I see Reflection as my recovery song.
I love both songs & Esmeralda is my one of favourite female Disney characters ever 🖤
I like to pretend the original Hunchback story doesn’t exist & the only canon one is the Disney version where Esmeralda & Quasi get to live happily ever after, not as a couple but as good friends & she gets to be with Phoebus
Reflection always moved me as a child. Probably because I have self esteem and identity issues. Now I'm 35 and overweight and I don't recognize myself and my self esteem is worse now. I used to be petite and thin.
As someone who has actually watched The Hunchback Of Notre Dame and also grew up to it, I can say her song is especially beautiful.
Idk what it is about "When She Loved Me", but the SECOND the song started in this video, I started crying.
I cried so hard as a child when I saw Dumbo cradled by his mother that i actually ran a fever. Something about it permanently changed me. Ever after, i have had tremendous compassion for children and baby animals. I became a better person, believe it or not, at a very young age.
My favorite song, though, is "Kiss The Girl", even though it may seem more funny than haunting, but the tension and heartache of Ariel really comes across....

Honorable Mentions
I love all these songs.
1. As someone with a disability & has been bullied I have always loved this song and I can relate to how Esmerelda feels. Demi Moore did a great job singing this song. Edit: Thank you to everyone who corrected me saying that Demi Moore did not sing for Esmerelda.
Ditto. I’m on the autism spectrum and I’m nearsighted.
Baby Mine has a whole new meaning for me; I heard an 8-9 year old sing it on the most recent anniversary of my father’s death (I lost him in 2019) and I completely lost it when I heard the song.
I can relate to number one as well, also having a disability and having been bullied. Although Demi Moore did the speaking voice, it was a beautiful singer named Heidi Mollenhauer Who sang that song.
She didn’t. Heidi Mollenhauer sang for her. 😊
Demi Moore didn't do the singing in Hunchback, they used Heidi Mollenhauer for the singing voice.
Colors of the Wind always tugs at my heartstrings. It was my grandma's favorite song. My sister used to sing and she was quite good and she'd have her sing it to her sometimes. Before she died she asked if my sister would sing it at her funeral, and she did. It always tugs at me for that
My mom sung "Baby Mine" to me and my brothers when we were young, and we cried all night.
These songs are indeed hauntingly beautiful, they are such absolute classics that no one can resist them. Disney and Pixar's music departments are just that damn good at what they do!
If live action movies were included, Feed the Birds from Mary Poppins, The Age of Not Believing from Bedknobs and Broomsticks, and Candle In the Wind from Pete’s Dragon would definitely be in this video
It's "Candle on the Water", but I agree.
I didn’t know Elton John did songs for Pete’s Dragon XD jk
And also Song of the south.10/10 movie anyday.And yes i'v actually seen it, several times, and I can also tell anyone who's reading this that Song of the south's controversy is stupid because it's about something that's not even there.The movie has absolutely not a SINGLE thing in it that is racist OR offensive, and it's actually an amazing movie.
Great job picking other beautiful sad songs, Nate!!
@@sarahsims6164 yeah. Candle on the Water. Beautiful song.
The Hunchback of Notre Dame is *EXTREMELY* underrated!!!!
God Help The Outcasts made me *CRY* when I saw the movie the first time around.
When people ask me what my favorite Disney song is, no one ever remembers “God Help the Outcast,” but that’s my favorite!! So under appreciated and underrated! This list was on point!
Nightmare Before Christmas is such a masterpiece of a movie. The stop motion is immaculate, the voice actors are awesome, the songs are absolute bangers! If it was its own song, Jack and Sally’s duet in the finale would be up there: it always has me in a chokehold
Hellfire is a hauntingly beautiful song...creepy and evil, but yeah
Honestly, all the songs in Hunchback of Notre Dame is awesome
ABSOLUTELY ONE OF MY FAVORITES
Another creepy, but beautiful song is Come Little Children from Hocus Pocus.
Amy Lee’s rendition of Sally’s Song is quite beautifully somber I like it as much as I like the original version
My favorite!
A person of culture I see. Amy Lee has some beautiful songs in her solo career
One of my favorite songs ever. And the original version of Jack’s Lament.
I legit started silently crying when "goodbye may seem forever popped up. That movie always makes my tear up/cry. The fox and the hound is such a wonderfull movie!
That part used to make me cry so much when I was little my mom had to fast-forward through it. It still gets me right in the heart.
@@dasdovian7785 Same with me.
I actually memorized GOD HELP THE OUTCASTS as a child. It still brings tears to this day.
I like the part in Tangled where she sees a lantern about to touch the water, and she doesn't know she just touched the one that her parents touched a few mins ago.
wait srsly?
My favorites are...
Remember me "Coco"
When she love me "Toy story 2"
Dos oruguitas "Encanto"
The next right thing "Frozen 2"
and I see the light "Tangled"
And now I’m crying 😭 the fact that these movies can convey these emotions so well is amazing
"Nobody Else But You" -The Goofy Movie
This song appears after disaster brought about by betrayal and lack of communication endangers the lives of our father-son protagonists. It reminds us of the special bond shared between parents and their kids with humor and heart-warming sentimentality. My daughter was only four when this movie hit video and immediately fell in love with it. Her favorite thing to do was for the two of us to sing the song together each of us taking the parts of the characters. Rugrat, you'll always be my little Maxi, love, your Goofy Dad.
I love Frozen 2 so much because it grew with the original audience. I was very young when the original Frozen came out, and almost in high school when Frozen 2 came out, and it was so refreshing to see the characters and the story grow along with us. The Hunchback of Notre Dam is a notoriously underrated movie with an amazing soundtrack and incredible story, and the Nightmare Before Christmas never fails to give me chills.
I knew what was going to be number one. However, the scene from Moana with her grandma always makes me cry. I am extremely close to my grandma, so it got me choked. And the scene from Fox and the Hound just makes me a mess. I am also not over Dos Oruguitas by Sebastian Yatra. Listen to his music and you will not be disappointed
I remember when we saw Moana in theaters & immediately new when her grandmother passed away I immediately started crying 😭 it was so touching knowing she was guiding her in a new way
Dammit, even if it's just that short clip of coco singing along or the whole movie, my eyes ALWAYS start to tear up to the point of tears. I know it's coming and have probably seen it at least 10 times since its release, and that moment where she remembers and sings can never NOT make me cry a little!
I watched Coco for the first time last week and I cried like a b!Tch. My nephew just stared at me like I was crazy.
Ok you started off on a real tearjerker 😭🥰 ok I should have know this was going to be a tear jerker of a list
So many of these are classics! I can't bear to listen to Baby Mine because I cry instantly when it plays. I totally agree with God Help The Outcasts being #1! I still sing along to it still. Another song that should of been mentioned also from The Hunchback Of Notre Dame is the song Out There which was Quasimodo's song, the lyrics are so powerful as well.
Hauntingly beautiful Songs in Disney movies
These songs I really relate to the most and really makes me cry at each song.
Reflection-Mulan
God Help the Outcasts- The Hunchback of Norta Dame
When she loved me- Toy Story 2
Out there- The Hunchback of Norta Dame
The next right thing- Frozen 2
Love will find a way- Lion king 2
Dos Oruguitas & I See the Light are a beautiful marriage of touching music and beautiful cinematic magic. I never cared for the 2010's 3D craze in theatres (so many films that got the treatment didn't need it or it was barely noticeable), but it actually did elevate my first experience with I See the Light. I missed the option when I was finally able to see Encanto in theatres.
You'll Be in My Heart rings with a particular sincerity because it was expanded from an actual lullaby Phil Collins made up to sing to his daughter, Lily, when she was young. I tear up every time. Remember Me is the only track that rivals this one for my tears haha. (We don't talk about Goodbye May seem Forever...that's a whole different beast of sadness...)
Had it not been relegated to the credits, "Someday" from The Hunchback of Notre Dame would be way up here on this list. I do love God Help the Outcasts tho, and I understand why adding in Someday would've undercut both tracks' impact. Still....at least Disney put it in the live musical adaption & it's the climactic track of the Harmonious show at EPCOT, now. But I still listen to Celtic Woman's cover of it and wish Disney would do a bit more with the track, even still. It's hauntingly beautiful, defined!
For me, the most beautiful songs in Disney History are Feed the Birds from the Original Mary Poppins (sung by Julie Andrews), Where the Lost Things go from Mary Poppins Returns (I started sobbing when I first heard this song), God Help the Outcasts, Out There from The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Beauty and the Beast and there are so many others
I was going to suggest Feed the Birds as well. It is one of the most melodic and harmonic songs ever written!
God Help the Outcasts is severely underrated
The whole movie is severely underrated! Disney needs to give this film more love!
God Help The Outcasts was appropriately placed on this list. In answer to her question, Mary was a bit of an outcast. No one believed her that Jesus was conceived in Her by the Holy Spirit, it even took a message from an angel in a dream for Joseph, her own husband, to believe her. She was very much an outcast.
That's very true. And of course, when her Son became a man, he welcomed every outcast with open arms, and did not let the ridicule of the religious authorities and other ignorant people stop him from either healing them both physically and/or emotionally.
@@nicolebezeau1174 Amen to that
I didn't think of Mary as the outcast. Jesus was an outcast!
@@monicaminyard7502 they were all outcasts. that’s why it’s so disheartening to see modern Christians forgetting what it’s all about.
That’s why that lyric is genius personified. The lyric is brilliant in itself but then they’re being sung by a character who has very little idea what this idea of religion is…and asks if this famed figure was an outcast. SO GOOD ❤️❤️❤️❤️
It started out strong, the Dumbo song Baby Mine still makes me cry to this day. The loving relationship of Dumbo and his mother reminds me of my mother and I, always protective of me when I was little. Also, You'll be in my Heart is very heartbreaking.
finally some dos oruguitas appreciation! what a tear jerking gorgeous song
You nailed the number one spot. Absolutely the best Disney ballad ever.
I honestly was surprised that "Candle on the Water" from Pete's Dragon was not mentioned, even as an honorable mention. Helen Reddy's song is so beautiful
I like all her songs in that.
The whole movie deserves more recognition.
THANK YOU!!!
Every song on this list got me crying 😭
I specially like Quasimodo's "Heaven's Light", from the Hunchback of Notre Dame!
Me too.
"God help the outcasts" definitely is number 1 👍
I was watching Dumbo for the first time with my eldest (who's 5 right now) and she came to me with tears in her eyes to cuddle. The song still brings tears to my eyes.
One of the last lines of "God Help The Outcasts" always hits me in the heart
"I thought we all were the children of God"
I'm not religious anymore, but those are such heartbreaking lyrics. We're supposedly all made in God's image and He loves all his children, yet so many in the world preach like He plays favorites and everyone else is abominations. I know not all Christians are like that, I'm not saying they all are, but too many are like that...
How could you not have no way out from brother bear on here that song is literally so depressingly beautiful
The musical version of "God Help The Outcasts" legit crushes my heart and mesmerizes me
What chokes me up every time is "No Way Out" from Brother Bear. Perfectly punctuated the sequence when Kenai tells Koda what the "monster" really is.
I never really understood the dark themes in Hunchback of Norte Dame as a kid. Now I know and I’m glad I wasn’t scarred for life
Yeah, #2 (When She Loved Me) grabs my heart. These kinds of songs get more grabby as I age... at 76, I have a mass of them to remember, and every now & then, a new one joins the pack.
One of my favorite melancholy Disney songs is "I Will Go Sailing No More" from Toy Story when Buzz learns he really is just a toy. That scene and song pulls at the heart strings and you feel Buzz's pain. It's the song of all broken dreams...
They all moved me to tears and give me an emotional outlet when I feel so overwhelmed and sad and when nobody, not even my loved ones don’t understand me. Number 8 was used for my wedding day.
I honestly think Esmerelda was my gay awakening, not going to lie
It's such an amazing film overall about isolation, corruption and discrimination that always gets me teary-eyed each time.
Hunchback of Notre Dame was one of my first exposures to racism. I'm white and grew up with many friends that were people of color and I remember being so upset and asking my family why Esmeralda was considered bad just because she was a different color. I remember it made me think of my friends and it hurt me so much that they might go through that.
I wasn't looking to get caught up in my feels today, Ms. Mojo, but you came out the gate SWINGING with baby mine 😭
Guys, I’m not even kidding…. This video made me cry. I was feeling emotional a bit in, with the grief of losing my dad and all, and I just couldn’t keep it in…. And the inclusion of Sally’s Song was a huge nail in the coffin, because the main reason I got interested in Tim Burton stuff in the first place was watching it with my dad years ago…. I just wanted to say thank you. Your video helped me release some bottled-up emotions, and I needed that! Thanks so much, love your videos!
Both "Reflection " from Mulan and "Remember Me" from Coco always get me in my feels
"Deliver Us" from The Prince of Egypt is amazingly beautiful!!
Definitely agree with the top pick :) I always feel a welling of emotion whenever it plays. You'll Be in My Heart is another song that always has me in tears thinking of my family.
That song "baby mine" from Dumbo NEVER fails to make me cry as I remember my own mother's love & understanding. How I miss her!!! 😞😓😩😤
Ok, for once I totally agree with the top choice! Masterpiece. As a 19yo in 1996...I felt like the Outcast and that song Hit like a rock!
I like this list a lot! The only thing I would change is ranking 'Sally's Song' WAY higher. It's at least #5 or #4 in my opinion. Sally's such an underrated character and I think she's very multifaceted. She likes Jack, but she doesn't follow him blindly because of that infatuation. Instead, she expresses doubt about the plan to take over Christmas because she knows deep down that's not what Jack wants. He's lonely just like Sally, alienated because of his identity as Pumpkin King. She's alienated from the town because of how she was created and isolated after that. Sally always loved Jack for who he was, even when she doubted if he reciprocated. Yet...he did. Seeing someone in a new, different light-as an extension of your own heart-is so beautiful, especially if you didn't realize it for a while.
I don't know if I consider it haunting, but I am Moana gets me every time. It's just so gorgeous and uplifting especially paired with the visuals.
"When Somebody Loved Me" is one of the few songs that will always bring me to tears. It hits me hard every. darn. time. It is such a powerful song about love, loss, and suffering.
My mother died in December of 2019. My best friend took me to see Frozen 2, and she had avoided all spoilers about the film. It was a few weeks after my Mom's death that we saw it.
Needless to say, I was crying my eyes out with Anna singing The Next Right Thing.
I still cannot listen to that song without crying.
Top 20 Best Disney Sidekick Songs of All Time!
79: When I was a kid, Emily’s song from The Corpse Bride was hauntingly beautiful. Tragic but sad
What’s it called?
Loved your picks and agree, God Help the Outcasts is an amazing song (the stage version is every bit as haunting). I’d also add When You Wish Upon a Star (from Pinocchio) which is now the Disney theme song. Although not from the movies, Endless Night from the Lion King stage musical is arguably one of the most haunting songs in Disney repertoire.
I See The Light is on my wedding songs list.
My friend played it for her bridesmaids and groomsmen dance
@@courtneysavina5152 That's pretty romantic, cool and lovely.
"Reflection" and "You'll Be In My Heart" should have been MUCH higher on the list.
"Baby Mine" and "You'll Be In My Heart" always make me choke up.
Reflections was the dopest song when I was a teenager and it's still the dopest song from a Disney animated movie today.
"God Help the Outcasts" absolutely deserves the number one place! That's always been my favorite Disney song, and these days it holds even more truth.
Amy Lee's version of Sally's Song will always be one of the most hauntingly beautiful Disney songs.
Wow these songs made me cry
When she loved me always hit me in the feels. I remembered that song so vividly that I took my favorite stuffed dog to college with me and she now lives permanently in my bedroom next to my husband’s very similar looking stuffed dog.
Colors of the Wind lyrics are intelligent and beautiful. 🍂🍃🍁
All goof picks. Also, "Second star to the right" and "Bella Notte" make me emotional whenever I hear them.
I cry everytime at the dumbo scene to the point when they released the trailer for the live action dumbo, i first saw it at the cinema when I was going to see The Meg ... i cried at the trailer as it took me right back to the original
Baby Mine is my favorite that still brings me to tears.
I absolutely love the nightmare before Christmas, it's such an underrated movie besides the recognition it gets during Halloween and Christmas. One of my favorite movies of all time.
God Help The Outcasts is my favorite Disney song BECAUSE it is hauntingly beautiful. It also is one of the most relevant songs written about the corruption in the world. It's simply a masterpiece that will stand the test of time. Perfect choice for number 1!
I literally can't hear "Remember Me" without 😭....it happens every time
I'm Still Here from Treasure Planet. It's not a soft quiet song, but the lyrics are moving, and the scene nearly made my mom cry the first time i showed her, it did make my sister cry.
I see you're only including songs from the animated films, but damn, when I saw this list I couldn't help but think of 'Feed the Birds' from Mary Poppins.
Talk about a song that has such a quiet power and understated message
Walt Disney said it was his favorite song from all his movies.
This song is absolutely beautiful that the words are moving and how they keep how round sounding it would’ve been if sung in a cathedral
Not me crying over "Baby Mine" immediately.
Dumbo, that song and that scene always made me cry when I was a kid and as an adult, yeah it still does.
The french version of "God help the outcast" is truly beautiful
