Disney’s Greatest Song
SharePosted on 23. Jan, 2007 by Gallivanter in Rewind
It’s not “Somewhere Out There”, it’s not “Under the Sea”, it’s not “A Whole New World”, it’s not “Beauty and the Beast”. “Hakuna Matata” comes close though, and so does “Heigh Ho (Its Off the Work We Go)”. Don’t get me started with “Can’t You Feel the Love Tonight” – YUCK! The best DISNEY song is THAT song from THE JUNGLE BOOK, when Baloo the bear teaches Mowgli the mancub a thing or two about bare necessities. Enjoy! 
Jungle Book – The Bear Necessities
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
Old Mother Nature’s recipes
That brings the bare necessities of life
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam
I couldn’t be fonder of my big home
The bees are buzzin’ in the tree
To make some honey just for me
When you look under the rocks and plants
And take a glance at the fancy ants
Then maybe try a few
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They’ll come to you!
Look for the bare necessities
The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
I mean the bare necessities
That’s why a bear can rest at ease
With just the bare necessities of life
Now when you pick a pawpaw
Or a prickly pear
And you prick a raw paw
Next time beware
Don’t pick the prickly pear by the paw
When you pick a pear
Try to use the claw
But you don’t need to use the claw
When you pick a pear of the big pawpaw
Have I given you a clue ?
The bare necessities of life will come to you
They’ll come to you!
So just try and relax, yeah cool it
Fall apart in my backyard
‘Cause let me tell you something little britches
If you act like that bee acts, uh uh
You’re working too hard
And don’t spend your time lookin’ around
For something you want that can’t be found
When you find out you can live without it
And go along not thinkin’ about it
I’ll tell you something true
The bare necessities of life will come to you

this is prob one of those songs we tap our feet to without bothering to listen to the lyrics-something that teaches all of us a thing or two in the very least.
there’s one that I like, the name game (disney’s silly songs)-nice in a stupid way.

anucia Yes, it’s a classic song from a classic movie.
As for the Name Game, it was sung by Shirley Ellis (and I have the mp3 for that). 
Laksa Well, more of the older ones.
Hakuna Matata!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Jungle Book. I love this cartoon.
I remember having to sing this song for choir practice…(Yes Daniel I see that you have one of your eyebrows up)
I always felt happy when I sang this song.
Well, now due to excessive smokage I croak instead of sing.
LOL LOL
