When you actually listen to the lyrics of most of the Disney songs you realise how genius it all is! As a kid it's great watching the movies but as you get older you realise how clever the writing is! Timeless
Real shame how Disney lost that snappy wit and replaced it with insultingly safe corporate garbage as the years went by. And then, when they were done driving their already-owned properties into the ground, they expanded outwards.
Some people catch it and become consumed by weird conspiracy theories ... And miss all the clever magic. That's how good the writing is, it terrifies the superstitious.
Alan Menken has written many, many, many wonderful songs with many different lyricists, but Howard Ashman is his greatest and most natural collaboration. Ashman’s lyrics, like Irving Berlin, breathe with such natural freshness. Deceptively simple, never pretentious or overtly clever (like Tim Rice’s “Hold your breath it gets better/Every moment red letter” in A Whole New World). Menken’s music, like Berlin, drives Ashman’s words with that exact amount of natural flair. Together, Menken and Ashman were phenomenal, from Little Shop of Horrors to Little Mermaid to Beauty and the Beast to Aladdin. Ashman’s death at the peak of his success is such a tremendous loss to the world of musicals. Brilliant writer and collaborator.
The creators made Genie with Robin Williams specifically in mind to play him, even before approaching him for the role. Nobody else can play him because the character basically IS Robin Williams.
You know, there’s a character in Miraculous Ladybug named Prince Ali. And now I can’t stop thinking about this song being heard during his debut. Like, when he arrives at the school, he comes in with a parade led by a hype man, and when the song ends, he just looks utterly embarrassed. The kicker? Chloe agrees with Marinette that this whole spectacle is overkill.
Because Robin Williams had a will that makes Disney unable to use Robin Williams' audio, image, and likeness for 25 years after he killed himself in 2014.
Aladdin was the real definition of doing way to much to get the girl the fact he went to this extreme for a girl always made me laugh but one of my fav movies from my generation
1:09 random timestamp :] He's faced the galloping hordes A hundred bad guys with swords Who sent those goons to their lords? Why, Prince Ali Fellas, he's got (Got 75 golden camels) Uh-huh, now the ladies, what he got? (Purple peacocks, he's got 53) Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh When it comes to exotic-type mammals
God please make me a prince Jafar said happy 😊 okay He told him you’re a prince now! Wow! Jafar said happy in his new outfit. I like it Can you make a song for me? He asked sure can! He told him
I would figure that a lot of little Boys would try to look for some Prince Ali Costumes & a lot of little Girls would try to look for some Jasmine Dresses.
Believe it or not, I watch this Disney movie every year on or around Easter Sunday and that tradition I've done since 2018! I've also been watching it in November occasionally as well!

That’s why Howard Ashman is one of my main inspirations to write lyrics.
Ashman is one of the biggest losses to the world of lyrics.

"Don't they look lovely June?" "Fabulous Harry, I love the feathers!" hahahahaha
That is so Robin
Nikita Komatsu Yup, that was the lovable old loony all over!
I always wondered why they changed the names in Polish version to Krystal and Dave
Who wrote this song, anyway?
RIP Robin Williams. This was probably your best role in any film. You are the thing which made this movie an instant classic.
And it looked like he didn't want that to happen, if the sudden replacement in the TV series(As well as "The Return of Jafar".) is any indication.
PRICE JESUS, handsome is HE, JESUS CHRIST hallelujah!!
The Fisher King and Good Will Hunting
Y'all idiots are trippin he didn't want a cash grab which is why he came back for the straight to video conclusion fuck heads
Thank God we get to see him as the Genie again in THE KING OF THIEVES
2:19 I LOVE that part in the movie when the elephant and the animals just rammed into the palace lmao
me too
And Jafar angrily pushes it away from him and a smashed Iago XD
Kita Lorraine poor Iago
me too!!! i always laugh at that part!!! lmfao
I remember it eliciting an out loud laugh in the theaters 😂
It feels great to hear Robin Williams voice again. R.I.P. Robin Williams.
Render Bones see
This is one of the most Howard Ashman songs that Howard Ashman ever wrote. Every line glitters with his unique lyrical style.
ik
When you get your first paycheck
Jajajajaja lol
and the reprise is when paycheck is spent in a week
Brilliant
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OH MY GOSH THAT CRACKED ME UP HAHAHAHAHHAHAAHAHHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rest in peace Robin Williams xxx

He's not dead. He's stuck in a board game, waiting for someone to roll a five or an eight.
a true comedic genius!!! rest in peace and love mr.williams!!!!

Robin Williams really CAN do it all!
Honestly one of the most intricate and marvellous pieces of music ever written
R.I.P you beautiful man, may you make the heavens beam with laughter.
"Fabulous Harry! I love the feathers."RIP forever Robin WIlliams.
Aladdin was in my Disney collection growing up and it was my all time fave Disney Princess movie. I bought it for our movie collection a few years ago
Rest in peace Robin Williams. We will never forget you for just how funny you were. You were fabulous as the genie in Aladdin
Eric Kessler i feel so depressed now. RIP Robin Williams
He was great as batty from Fern fully also!!!!!! He is deeply missed still!!!!!!!
RIP ROBIN WILLIAMSSSS!!!
rip robin williams
yes RIP
Can we talk about Robin Williams' voice? He's such a genius.
2:18 I love how the arrangement kicks into another gear. Makes a huge difference on a home theater sound system.
This slaps so hard tho 😭
I need dat Robin Williams lil baby x smurk flow
"Heard your princess was a sight lovely to see." *A flattened and enraged Jafar slowly pushes the door away from him and Iago* LOL!!! XD
All the wish required was princehood. That lovable djinn gave that with a mountain-load of interest!
treat your genie right and he'll treat you right.
@@1994moviebuff treat my windows computer right and my windows computer will treat me right
I love robin Williams singing!!
I've been trying to avoid Genie like crazy since the passing of Robin Williams, but I still find myself holding back tears.
I can't hold back the tears. May he Rest in Peace
this makes me miss Robin Williams so much I cant not believe he has been gone for 4 years and even when I hear about it today I still cry and am sad
I just imagine Robin animatedly singing this sing....
I loved this song. There will never be anyone who can play Genie like Robin Williams did.

I used to learn the lyrics of every song because I have this CD when I was a child. haha thanks for uploading!
Wow, That Song Rocks!!!
This song screams "Warning: Incoming Ham! Oh, and Prince Ali too, I guess."
Thsi was my song fro my dance
Fabulous Harry, i love the feathers
you can really get into this song :D
RIP Robin Williams.
This is how I try to portray myself to girls in the beginning of a relationship but after a few weeks it always falls apart. Holy shit I'm Aladdin
Don't worry, you'll eventually end up with someone like Jasmine!
Start with this version, few weeks later it's the Jafar reprise?
facepalm
you must be one very rich, very strong, very brave guy. And not actually good at talking to ladies.
R.I.P Robin Williams and Howard Ashman. You both will be missed.
And gilbert gottfried
best childhood ever
giorgi lebanidze ikr i will never stop loving disney no matter how old i get! But I'm crying so hard right now i miss Robin Williams so much
I always loved seeing the belly dancers in the beginning to this scene!!!!! Also that animation is still great to this day!!!!!
Why isn’t this ON SPOTIFY
Because Robin Williams had a will that makes Disney unable to use Robin Williams' audio, image, and likeness for 25 years after he killed himself in 2014.
Aladdin was the real definition of doing way to much to get the girl the fact he went to this extreme for a girl always made me laugh but one of my fav movies from my generation
the 76 dislikes are just jafar with different accounts
Lunar Moon Now He has a total of 83 different accounts.
@@Enterprise-D666 But now jafar has a total 100 accounts wow jafar really hates aladdin
@@King-ff5dt What did you expect? Aladdin tricked Jafar into becoming a Genie which requires him being bound to a lamp and a master.

Why do all the songs in this fucking playlist have a minute of silence at the end of them
Robin Williams 😭
This brings Bartimeus in my mind XDDDD dont even know why

Holy shit how am I just now realizing that Robin Williams voiced Genie?
