Marathon Weekend 2022

[PCFriar80]

SAFD:
I'm going to go off the board and use one of my wild cards [I have 2 left] and go with Tapestry of Dreams soundtrack!

 

[shellott-hill]

SAFD:

• I listen to the Tron Legacy Reconfigured soundtrack quite often when I am out running. It gives me a boost to keep up the pace.
• I love the Into the Woods soundtrack
• The Tarzan soundtrack with Phil Collins has a special place in my heart. It brings back fond memories of my DS (my little man) when he was born.

I have several favourite songs from other soundtracks, but those are the ones where I can listen to the whole album.

SAFD: I love the Hercules soundtrack. It holds up SO well and is often forgotten.

The Hercules soundtrack is a banger.

Top 5

1. Princess and the Frog
2. Lion King
3. Aladdin
4. Hercules
5. Tangled

To everyone mentioning Tarzan, I see you. Just missed my top 5.

There are a bunch of movies that also have a really standout song, too. In no particular order:

1. Married Life, Up (my top Disney song)
2. When Can I See You Again?, Wreck-It Ralph
3. Slaughter Race, Ralph Breaks the Internet
4. Let It Go, Demi Lovato version
5. Some Things Never Change, Frozen 2

SAFD: Step in Time is a great one. It’s a long song and gives me some good energy.

 

[Neon Cactus]

My mind was all on the animated soundtracks. Completely forgot about Mary Poppins.

 

[camaker]

SAFD: Here are my top 5:

1. Nightmare Before Christmas (1st by a mile!)
2. Moana
3. Little Mermaid
4. Hercules
5. Beauty & the Beast

 

[BigEeyore]

SAFD: Mary Poppins hands down for me for favorite Disney soundtrack. Pure Sherman brothers brilliance - I love the movie Saving Mr. Banks as it made me appreciate MP even more.

Also have to mention "Circle of Life" - that song is just so beautiful and moving.

1. Married Life, Up (my top Disney song)
2. When Can I See You Again?, Wreck-It Ralph
3. Slaughter Race, Ralph Breaks the Internet
4. Let It Go, Demi Lovato version
5. Some Things Never Change, Frozen 2

GET OUT OF MY BRAIN! That song from Up never fails to make me tear up. Pixar really nailed it with the beginning of that movie (and the whole thing, honestly.)

If it's Disney songs to RUN to:
-I can go the distance (Hercules)
-How far I'll go (Moana)
-Run that race (Cars 3)
-Into the unknown (Frozen 2)
-Try everything (Zootopia)

 

[Baloo in MI]

SAFD:
So hard! I think these would be my top 5.
1) The Princess and the Frog.
2) Tarzan
3) Frozen
4) The Jungle Book
5) The Lion King

My honorable mention would be Mary Poppins.

PotC suite
Dig a Little Deeper
Make a Man Out of You
Step in Time
Son of Man (Tarzan)

 

[lhermiston]

-Try everything (Zootopia)

“Try Everything” slaps.

 

[hotblooded]

I'm obsessed with the Epcot Future World / Innoventions soundtrack, because there's something about 80s-style retro-futuristic music that feels perfect for the park. I've heard rumors about music changes coming this year but I can't bear to find out the details yet. If they remove Papillon from the loop, I will be crushed.

 

[azrivest]

SafD: So many to choose from... Beauty and the Beast is a true classic. In terms of a single song, "Try Everything" is my anthem when running. Doesn't matter if I finish last, as long as I keep running and do my best!

Thanks everyone for the great running playlist recommendations by the way.

 

[bovie]

SAFD: I love most of what's been listed here, but my fav running playlist editions come from the Descendants soundtracks. Rotten to the Core and What's My Name are probably at the top of the list.

 

[Blue Caterpillar]

I loved the soundtrack to The Hunchback. In fact, I had recieved a gift of a recorder and a song book of songs from it. I sure my parents weren't as delighted as I was. I also really like Hercules too.

 

[Sleepless Knight]

SAFD Soundtracks:

Favorite Disney: Sleeping Beauty
Favorite Pixar: The Incredibles

Favorite Running Song: Let's Go Fly a Kite because I either experienced the runners high or a hallucination during mile 25 of the 2019 Marathon when they played it in Epcot over the speakers for runners.

Random note: Disney animated movies in general have some absolutely tremendous running songs either for pep in your step or message.

And all of the songs in the Happily Ever After show

My opinion about Happily Ever After changed substantially after hearing Go The Distance after the 2019 Dopey Challenge. It went from an okay show with tremendous pyrotechnics to a favorite.

This isn’t original Disney, but I love listening to the Star Wars soundtracks while running too, that gives me a kick I need.

John Williams in general is a great composer for running energy.

 

[UK_Disney_Dopey_Hopeful]

Wow, personally this is without doubt the hardest SAFD question ive ever encountered. Usually i have a few answers for SAFD but i always have one that just stands out above the rest, but this soundtrack one is near impossible.

As people have have said, there are so many good tracks across a range of movies, so i cheated a while back and created my own playlist, so when i go running i have about 25/30 disney songs (intermingled with a few other classics i enjoy) and even after nearly 3 years after creating this, its still the only music i will listen to when i go running because the songs are brilliant but also laced with a lot of emotional memories (Family vacations etc) which distract me from the slog of running and drive me on.

So, soundtrack.... my own but some of the "Highlights" (For me anyway!) Circle of life, Be our guest, Try Everything,

 

[PrincessV]

SAFD: Soul. Soul. Also... SOUL. What can I say? I'm a jazz lover!
TRON: Legacy is way up there, too. One of my favorites for a full album run.

I'll also give high marks to both Jungle Books, the OG and the live action remake. The OG Mary Poppins, for sure. And yep, totally agree with the greatness of Princess & the Frog.

 

[sandam1]

SAFD: If we can count movies on Disney+, mine is hands down The Greatest Showman.

I ran the vast majority of my first half marathon with this soundtrack on repeat - and still wasn't tired of it.

My opinion about Happily Ever After changed substantially after hearing Go The Distance after the 2019 Dopey Challenge. It went from an okay show with tremendous pyrotechnics to a favorite.

I nearly lost it at that section after my Princess challenge.
