Musical Monday #101

So there's a line and shot in this song that covers the entire plot of Brother Bear.  Just another reason we never needed Brother Bear.

Colors Of The Wind from Pocahontas
Performed by Judy Kuhn
Written by Stephen Schwartz and Alan Menken

  1. I guess between the bears' cameo on Pocahontas, and the movie Brave, you might be right!

    Surprisingly, the sequel is actually better than Brother Bear!

    1. Can't be hard. Is it about the baby bear realising his best friend murdered his mother and seeking his own bloody revenge?

    2. Alas, no. It's just a bog-standard romantic love story. But as far as I recall it features no bear-murders at all...

    3. Can't say I'm swayed. But Brother Bear probably isn't as bad as I recall. So far the only Disney movie that is as bad as I thought it was the first time round is Beauty And The Beast.

  2. When I was a kid I went to Modern Dance lessons. Each year we had a Christmas concert. One year I did an interpretive dance to this song, choreographed by my teacher. Hair in two plaits in a very stereotypical/racist way... because that's how I roll. Thanks for the reminder... I think I had tried to block that out.

    1. Hahaha! You're welcome. I also went to Modern Dance as a kid. I made zero friends and was terrified of the forward roll because I believed I would snap my neck. That's all I remember.

I look forward to your enthusiastic and loving comment.
