The Walt Disney
Company is guided by a simple mission: “to entertain, inform and inspire people
around the globe through the power of unparalleled storytelling.” The mission
used to be even simpler: “Make people happy,” a goal that Disney
stories have undeniably achieved. Since its founding in 1923, audiences
worldwide have grown up with Disney characters, singing their songs, relating
to the heroes and heroines of the films, and learning from their experiences.
For generations,
classic songs from Disney movies (many of them inspired by mythology and fairy
tales) have offered life lessons to both children and adults. Sometimes it’s
about making your dreams come true, other times it’s about embracing the
differences in the people around you — or in yourself. No matter the situation,
the characters and their songs are relatable and meaningful. The best of them
make us feel like we can do and achieve anything, and that feeling stays with
us into our daily lives.
These 12 lyrics
are some of the most inspiring of them all.
And the fears that once controlled me can't get to me at all

I can go the distance
I don't care how far
Somehow I'll be strong

grieving
If you keep on believing

You are sure to win

The simple bare necessities
Forget about your worries and your strife
