Songs written for Disney productions over the decades have become a potent part of American popular culture. Since most Americans first discovered these songs in their youth, these songs have a special place in our hearts. The Disney Song Encyclopedia describes and discusses over 900 famous and not-so-famous songs from Disney films, television, Broadway, and theme parks from the 1930s to the present day. Songwriters and original singers are identified, as well as the source of the song and other venues in which it has been used over the years. This volume also contains a glossary of song terms, a songwriter’s directory, a guide to recordings and DVDs of Disney productions, and a listing of Academy Award nominees and winners. |
