I know we are all in agreement that the greatest Disney song of all time is “One Jump Ahead” from Aladdin. Even if it is not your favorite favorite (blasphemy!), you have to admit it is pretty awesome.

Well, care of my new BFF keener, this version of "One Jump Ahead" is … er … never mind the small talk ... just watch this and bask in all its glory:



I could get punched in the face right now and this would still be the best night ever.

Now, to listen it to it one more time …



Is this blog awesome? Vote it up!

LOL learn that one off by heart!
One Jump Ahead is a fantastic song. Alan Menken is awesome. Too bad he was replaced from "The Princess and the Frog" by John Lasseter and replaced with Pixar favorite Randy Newman ("FAT MAN WITH HIS KIDS AND DOG...").

Oh yeah, Jafar is a fantastic villain. Too bad they changed their mind and decided not to give him a full song of his own. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AU6AfCWuZKI
@Tascar,
OH NO! Alan Menken was taken off "Princess?" Sad day. :(
Bah, that's not that difficult.

Well, I do have a degree in Japanese.... :)
"turgid"
sorry but the best disney song would have to be "Let's get down to business (To defeat the Huns)"*

*may not be actual title...i don't know
@Chad, yeah, apparently the rumor is that John Lasseter was concerned that the old 1990s complaint that Disney does nothing but the same old fairy tale musical will pop up again and so he "requested" bringing in a new musical voice. Made me sad to hear that too, especially after hearing some great new stuff from him in "Enchanted." Man, listening to that podcast makes me want to go get tickets for "The Little Mermaid" on Broadway now. Still haven't seen it yet though I bought the CD.
Wow, it's a lot more complicated to say Riff Raff and Street Rat in Japanese.
If someone does a perfect rendition of this song in Japanese during Karaoke night, they should get a prize. Like free hugs, or free punches for a year. Which one will it be? I won't spoil the surprise.
You are obviously forgetting the spur of genius that was You'll Bring Honor To Us All from Mulan, Concelmo. I WILL NOT STAND FOR IT!
I like the Mickey Mouse Club Alma Mater.

It kills anything you can ever come up with.

No Exceptions unless its NIN or Aquabats.
Still like the english version better xD
Great, now I just pissed away an hour watching Disney songs on youtube. Damn you, stupid things are still contagious in Japanese....
Chad, YOU are my favorite Disney song of all time.

Yes, I know that made no sense.
I love that movie.
I recognized two japanese words in that whole song which were "chotto" (a little) and "tomodachi" (friend).

My favorite Disney song is HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZEN PEEEEN YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ANA VIIIIIIIIIIIIII SHEEEE HE VAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I used to jump on my roommate's bed and scream that to wake her up in the morning.
I'm sorry Chad but the best Disney song of all time is without a doubt Hakuna Matata, after all it's not just a song it's a way of life. Oh and by the way the greatest Disney movie of all time is The Lion King. It's just the ay it is and it's time you accept it. :-)
lol its stuck in my head.
I'm sorry Chad, I have to agree with SilverDragon.

Still have the old(as in from the original movie) sound track on CD, and I use to wake up to Hakuna Matata every morning in elementary school.

"Its a problem freeeee,
Philosophyyyyy,
Hakuna Matata"
Confirmed: Tristero only comments on Chad's Cblogs now.
erm, by sound track, I mean to The Lion King btw
Um that was absolutely amazing. I now feel the need to listen to that about 536 more times! :D
Chad, now I really wanna have a disney movies marathon
It was kinda funny.

The original song is awesome though, definitely one of my favorites.
man i really wanna have a disney marathon right now to, i think the next time we should watch a movie over chat it should be disney
I'll be the third vote in Hakuna Matata being the greatest Disney song ever. I can't wait for The Lion King on Blu-Ray.
But A Whole New World is the best worst song.
I can't get behind you Hakuna Matata people. I just can't. After going to Kenya, I just hate that movie... Nothing against it per se, but I was so sick of the others in my group constantly saying.. "It's just like Lion King!" I felt the desperate need to slap faces. Also, in Swahili it doesn't have such positive connotations. Gotta say I am with Chad on this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T18kitOhRgo
Japanese "Friend Like Me is Godly, and Spike Spiegel.
I just spent the last ten minutes watching videos (in Japanese and English) of various songs from Aladdin. I love you, Chad.
That is the GREATEST THING EVAAAAAAAAR!!!!
WAT
Is it wrong that, years later, I still like "A Whole New World" and "Can You Feel the Love Tonight"? Makes me feel like a little girl.
I know how to sing a whole new world in Japanese :DDD
the JP version of a whole new world is aces too, thats impressive aiya. that would be a huge hit for karaoke... or *gasp* that new rockband or GH game that lets you create your own tracks?

man chad will probably explode when people make disney tracks for that game... id secretly wanna play them too.
Silverdragon is 100% correct. The Lion King is the greatest Disney movie, and, in fact, one of the best movies ever. I do no say this remembering from my childhood; i say this from watching it last week :P.

All the songs are awesome. Circle of Life is my favourite.
this makes me want to replay aladdin again
I prefer "Friend like me" but “One Jump Ahead” is pretty ballin as well.
Meh, I prefer the English version.
Totally crazy. My mind is blown.
Sorry, but http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XQaRG4P-9E is way better :)

Stickam foreign language Disney karaoke party please?
Destructoid Disney-A-Thon.

Think about it.
@Reaprar,
I totally agree with you ... and regretted it later.
The five year old girl inside me jsut jumped for joy.
"One Jump Ahead" is great because any time I play a video game and jump off some really high ledge I yell "ALL I GOTTA DO IS JUUUUUUUMP!" People normally have no fucking clue what I'm talking about.
F Whipple is right about the best Disney song. And it's called "I'll Make a Man Out of You." Still, this is right up there.

Also, Chad getting punched in the face would be adorable.
Oh yes, I'll Make A Man Out of You/Be A Man is the best hands down XD I want to sing that with someone... That and Dr. Horrible stuff lmao Destructoid Disney-A-Thon would be epic
I still prefer Be A Man.

That said, Chad, I had a few suggestions about RFGO! 55.5 (or whichever number the last one was.)

Eh, I'll PM you or something.
My head just broke.
