Cinderella (Ilene Woods) encourages her animal friends to never stop dreaming, and that theme continues throughout the entire story. The song was nominated for AFI's 100 Years...100 Songs, as one of 15 from Disney and one of 17 from an animated movie to be nominated. The ones that eventually made the cut were - "When You Wish Upon A Star" (#7), "Some Day My Prince Will Come" (#19), "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (#36), "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah (#47), "Beauty and the Beast" (#62), and "Hakuna Matata" (#99).

Episode 3: Part of Your World (The Little Mermaid)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: The Little Mermaid is a 1989 musical fantasy animated film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation. It was first released on November 17, 1989 by Walt Disney Pictures, but returned to theaters on November 14, 1997. The 28th animated feature in the Disney Animated Canon, the film is loosely based upon the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale "The Little Mermaid". The story centers a young mermaid named Ariel, who is captivated by the world upon the surface. When she falls in love with a human prince, she makes a deal with a villainous sea witch to become human, herself, and earn his love before the agreed time runs out. The Little Mermaid was an unmitigated success for the studio, being praised for its animation, storytelling, and music by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken. The movie grossed over $100 million at the US box office upon its initial release, and won two Academy Awards for Best Song ("Under the Sea") and Best Original Music Score. It is credited as the film to have started the historic Disney Renaissance, an era that had breathed life back into the animated feature film medium after a string of competent, but only moderately successful animated films such as The Aristocats and The Great Mouse Detective. Following The Little Mermaid were two direct-to-video sequels (The Little Mermaid II - Return to the Sea and The Little Mermaid - Ariel's Beginning) and an animated television series that ran from 1992 to 1994. A decade after the film's release, Ariel would be inaugurated into the Disney Princess media line, while Ursula would appear as a staple character in the Disney Villains franchise. In 2007, a stage adaptation of the film made its Broadway debut. A live-action reimagining based on the 1989 animation, and featuring the music of Alan Menken and Lin-Manuel Miranda, is currently in the works.
Episode 4: A Whole New World (Aladdin)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: "A Whole New World" is the key song from the 1992 classic animated feature, Aladdin, which was composed by Alan Menken along with lyrics written by Tim Rice. Its original version was sung by Brad Kane (Aladdin's singing voice) and Lea Salonga (Jasmine's singing voice). A pop version of the song was performed by Peabo Bryson and Regina Belle in the film's closing credits. The song was sung by Aladdin (disguised as Prince Ali Ababwa) and Jasmine while they were riding on the Magic Carpet about the new world that they are about to discover together such as Egypt and Greece while their love for each other blossomed before eventually stopping in China to watch fireworks. All the while, Jasmine silently deciphers that Prince Ali is the boy that she met in the marketplace. After Aladdin saves Agrabah and the Sultan allows Jasmine to marry whomever she deems worthy, an engaged Aladdin and Jasmine reprise "A Whole New World" as fireworks light the night sky to celebrate the new chapter of their lives.
Episode 5: Once Upon a Dream (Sleeping Beauty)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: Sleeping Beauty is a 1959 animated feature produced by Walt Disney Productions and originally released to theaters on January 29, 1959 by Buena Vista Film Distribution. The sixteenth animated feature in the Disney Animated Canon, it was the last animated feature produced by Walt Disney to be based upon a fairy tale (after his death, the studio returned to the genre with The Little Mermaid), as well as the last cel animated feature from Disney to be inked by hand before the xerography process took over. It is also the first animated feature to be shot in Super Technirama 70, one of many large-format widescreen processes (only one more animated film, The Black Cauldron, has been shot in Super Technirama 70). It spent nearly the entire decade of the 1950s in production - the story work began in 1951, voices were recorded in 1952, animation production took from 1953 until 1958, and the stereophonic musical score was recorded in 1957. It was originally a failure and did not make up the huge cost of the film. Along with the mixed critical reception, it was also noted to be the film that made Walt Disney lose interest in the animation medium. However, the subsequent re-releases proved massively successful, and critics and audiences have since hailed it as an animated classic.
Episode 6: I'm Wishing/One Song (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was America's first feature-length animated film, as well as the first in the Disney Animated Canon. It was also the first one in English, and the first in Technicolor. It was produced by Walt Disney Productions, premiered on December 21, 1937, and was originally released to theaters by RKO Radio Pictures on February 4, 1938. It is an adaptation of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale, in which an evil queen attempts to have her stepdaughter, Snow White, murdered in jealousy of her beauty. But she escapes and is given shelter by seven dwarfs in their cottage in a forest. The film is generally considered to be Walt Disney's most significant achievement, his first-ever animated feature. It was the first major animated feature made in the United States, the most successful one released in 1938, and, adjusted for inflation, is the tenth highest-grossing film of all time. This historical moment in motion picture history changed the medium of animation. Before 1937, short cartoons took up the majority of American animation. The film was adapted by Dorothy Ann Blank, Richard Creedon, Merrill De Maris, Otto Englander, Earl Hurd, Dick Rickard, Ted Sears, and Webb Smith and was supervised by David Hand, and directed by William Cottrell, Wilfred Jackson, Larry Morey, Perce Pearce, and Ben Sharpsteen. It is particularly memorable for songs like "Heigh-Ho" and "Someday My Prince Will Come", several frightening and intense sequences, and a style influenced by European storybook illustrations.
Episode 7: Colors of the Wind (Pocahontas)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: "Colors of the Wind", by composer Alan Menken and lyricist Stephen Schwartz, was the 1995 Oscar-winner for Best Original Song from the Disney animated feature film Pocahontas. It also won the Golden Globe in the same category as well as the Grammy Award for Best Song Written for a Movie. It was also nominated for AFI's 100 years...100 songs, as one of 15 songs from Disney and one of 17 songs from an animated movie to be nominated. The songs that eventually made the cut were - "When You Wish Upon A Star" (#7), "Someday My Prince Will Come" (#19), "Wind Beneath My Wings" (#44), "Beauty and the Beast" (#62), "The Rainbow Connection" (#74) and "Hakuna Matata" (#99). The song poetically represents the Native American viewpoint that the earth is a living entity where humankind is connected to everything in nature. This song is about Pocahontas' exhortation to John Smith about the wonders of the earth and nature, including the spirit within all living things, encouraging him not to think of them as things he can conquer or own, but rather as beings to respect and live with in harmony. She also urges him to accept humans who are different in appearance and culture and to learn from them. The whole song's music plays in the theatrical trailer, as shown on The Lion King video, but she only is heard singing the song starting from, "You think you own whatever land you land on." It can be heard briefly in Ralph Breaks the Internet when Pocahontas uses the power of the wind to help save Ralph.
Episode 8: Beauty and the Beast (Beauty and the Beast)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: "Beauty and the Beast" is a song written by lyricist Howard Ashman and composer Alan Menken for Walt Disney Pictures' 1991 animated feature film of the same name, serving as its theme song originally recorded by Angela Lansbury in her film role as Mrs. Potts. Commonly identified as the film's theme song, its lyrics describe the relationship between the film's two main characters, Belle and the Beast. It specifically addresses how it has managed to transform them, allowing their friendship (and later, love) to grow as Lumière, Cogsworth, and Chip watch on.
Episode 9: Reflection (Mulan)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: "Reflection" is a song from the 1998 animated film Mulan. The song was performed within the movie's narrative by Fa Mulan sung by Lea Salonga, in order to show how much Mulan wanted to honor her family. The song is performed after Mulan returns home following a failed attempt to impress her matchmaker. The lyrical content expresses the way Mulan feels about wanting to show the world who she really is instead of pretending to be who she is not, but is afraid to disappoint her family by doing so. This scene takes place at Mulan's home in its surrounding gardens and ends in her family temple, where she removes her makeup to reveal her true appearance.
Episode 10: Like Other Girls (Mulan II)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004
Summary: "Like Other Girls" is a song featured in the movie sequel, Mulan II. The song is sung by Princesses Ting-Ting, Su, and Mei (Judy Kuhn, Beth Blankenship, and Mandy Gonzalez respectively) who have decided to get away from the arranged marriage due to Mei's feelings for Yao. A pop version is performed by Atomic Kitten in the film's end credits. The song was also included in Disney Princess Sing Along Songs - Once Upon a Dream.
Episode 11: I Won't Say (I'm in Love) (Hercules)
Air Date: September 7th, 2004

Thomas, Cheryl Freeman, LaChanze, and Roz Ryan as the Muses, who serve as backup vocalists. The song was composed by Alan Menken with lyrics by David Zippel. The song is mainly about Meg trying to deny her growing romantic feelings toward Hercules and is trying to remind herself why falling in love is a bad idea. However, the Muses are trying to convince her that no matter how many times she tries to deny it, they know that that she is indeed falling in love with Hercules and are trying to get her to confess her feelings. A pop version of the song was recorded by singer, Belinda Carlisle, in 1997, for international releases only. In 2005, the Cheetah Girls recorded the song for Disneymania 3.
