|  #1 Posted on 26.5.11 0737.34 | Instant Rating: 0.73 | I just participated in a friend's podcast where they ask people a movie-themed question each time and I thought the one that I was asked was a good one for the Ws here.
My answer was "I Wanna Be Like You" from The Jungle Book. The scene where it is sung is one of my favorites and I just love the jazzy, be-bop vibe of it.

Louis Prima KILLS as King Louie in the Jungle Book - you have got to love "The Bear Necessities" from the same movie too.
And "Kiss the Girl" was played as the backing track to a video of my wife & I at our Rehearsal Dinner so that has a special spot too.

I submit for consideration "Looking for Romance/I Bring You a Song" from Bambi and "The Nutcracker Suite" from Fantasia.

If Pixar can be given consideration, then "When She Loved Me" from Toy Story 2. Devastating.

While I would not use the same tone as you (you did see that some of the choices came from Bambi and Jungle Book right?) , I agree with your choice. Love that song.
Honorable mentions to Hakuna Matata and Bear Necessities.

Yeah but boiling things down to an unreasonable stereotype for a joke is kinda my thing.
Anyway, while not my favorite "When You Wish Upon a Star" is pretty damn iconic. | ekedolphin
