How many animated feature films were produced by Disney by the time the song "The Bells of Notre Dame" was featured?
The Bells of Notre Dame "The Bells of Notre Dame" is a song from the 1996 Disney film, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame", composed by Alan Menken, with lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. It is sung at the beginning of the film by the clown-like gypsy, Clopin. It is set mainly in the key of D minor. (However, the movie is edited up a semitone, therefore playing this piece in E-flat minor.) The song bears some similarity to the poem "The Bells" by Edgar Allan Poe, especially the repetition of the word "bells" during the crescendo. The song is reprised at the end of the film.
Happy Working Song "Happy Working Song" is a song written by composer Alan Menken and lyricist Stephen Schwartz for Walt Disney Pictures' musical film "Enchanted" (2007). Recorded by American actress Amy Adams in her starring role as Giselle, the uptempo pop song both parodies and pays homage to a variety of songs from several Disney animated feature films, particularly "Whistle While You Work" from "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (1937). Produced by Menken, Schwartz and Danny Troob, the song appears on the film's soundtrack "Enchanted: Original Soundtrack."
