Disenchanted, the long-awaited sequel to Disney’s Enchanted, has hit Disney+, and it's full of even more songs and musical moments than the original. It has been over 10 years since Disney announced their intentions for a sequel to their 2007 critically-acclaimed romantic musical comedy, and the Disenchanted soundtrack has helped make the wait worthwhile. The sequel had big shoes to fill and Disney veterans Alan Menken and Stephen Schwartz teamed up again for music and lyrics respectively to do just that.

Disenchanted takes place 10 years after the events at the end of the first film, with Giselle (Amy Adams), Robert (Patrick Dempsey), and a now-teenager Morgan (who was recast in Disenchanted to be played by Gabriella Baldacchino) all living out their happily ever after as a family along with Giselle and Robert’s baby girl Sofia. The family is starting a new adventure as they move from Manhattan to the suburbs, the fictional town of Monroeville. Despite Giselle’s excitement for the move, things turn sour pretty quickly, and when a wish goes wrong, some magic, the power of love, and plenty of songs are needed to return things to normal. Here are all 10 songs of Disenchanted ranked from worst to best.

10. "Even More Enchanted (Finale)"

“Even More Enchanted (Finale)” is, as its title suggests, the final song in Disenchanted. It’s also the shortest of all 10 songs, clocking in at 1:37 - though it manages to fit in some great lyrics from Schwartz about the greatest lie of Disney princess movies: that everyone lives happily ever after. And though here in reality / My ever-after may not be, at every moment happily/It's even more / Even more enchanted,” Giselle sings, showcasing her character’s growth from the song it reprises, “Even More Enchanted.” However, by the time the finale rolls around, it is easy to have forgotten the solo Giselle had in the film’s first 10 minutes, so it’s not the strongest callback song. This, combined with how short the song is, earns it the lowest ranking.

9. "Andalasia"

In contrast to the previous song, "Andalasia" is the opener for Disenchanted. "Andalasia" is not to be confused with the track of the same name from the Enchanted score, which is purely orchestration by Menken. This “Andalasia” features different sweeping Menken orchestrations along with a beautiful choir singing about the land of Andalasia in harmony to set the fairytale tone. Disenchanted features returning and new cast members, with Griffin Newman as the new voice of Pip, Giselle’s chipmunk friend and film narrator. In this song, Pip fills viewers in on what happened in the first film, as well as what happened between its ending and the start of Disenchanted.

Outside the choir, there isn’t much singing in “Andalasia,” though it’s the longest of all 10 tracks at 4:30. Instead, it mostly features a dialogue of Pip telling the story to his sons Pip and Skip. Pip does go into some amusing mini reprises of beloved songs from Enchanted, such as “True Love’s Kiss” and “Ever Ever After” in his recap, and it does a great job of setting up the story of Disenchanted, while simultaneously reminding viewers of the greatness of its predecessor. Still, the lack of actual singing earns it the second-to-last spot in this ranking.

8. "Even More Enchanted"

“Even More Enchanted” is the first solo from Giselle, who started a Disney princess trend in Enchanted by playing into the classic Disney princess tropes while also satirizing them. It is lovely to once again hear the innocent, floaty voice that Adams puts on for Giselle to emphasize her princess-like qualities, as she convinces Morgan their move to Monroeville will make their lives “even more enchanted.” Adams has a nice belt at the end of the song, but in playing Giselle, her voice is naturally lighter and softer, and Menken’s strong, fast-paced orchestrations almost overwhelm her voice in moments.

When looking at Giselle’s opening solo in Enchanted, “Happy Working Song,” which was one of three songs from the film nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song, “Even More Enchanted” pales in comparison. The refrain is catchy, but the lyrics are not Schwartz’s best work. He is perhaps best known as the composer-lyricist of Wicked, which is being split into a two-part movie to be released in 2024, and lines like “We've left behind those city lights / For riding bikes and flying kites / Now we will be suburbanites” do not reflect his talents. As her first solo, it could have used some work, but the good news is, it only gets better from there.

7. "Love Power (Reprise)"

“Love Power (Reprise)” is definitely the most emotional and subdued song in Disenchanted, as Adams sings through tears to Morgan, telling her she is the true daughter of Andalasia and that there's no stronger magic than the love she has for her. It’s a beautiful musical moment and the somber orchestrations let Adams’ voice shine, even as it’s on the verge of cracking. It is reminiscent of Frozen 2’s most emotional song, “The Next Right Thing,” “The Next Right Thing,” which also features soft, heartbreaking singing and lyrics likely to draw some tears from listeners. Despite its shortness, it packs a big emotional punch, earning it a solid spot at number seven.

6. "Fairytale Life (After The Spell)"

“Fairytale Life (After The Spell)” is the perfect transitional song from Monroeville to Monrolasia following the wish Giselle makes to give everyone a fairytale life. It’s a catchy dance number that features the family and the villagers. There are major Beauty and the Beast vibes sonically and visually to this number, with Giselle’s household appliances coming to life to sing along. This is only natural Menken composed that 1991 Disney animated classic as well. Disenchanted even features a Beauty and the Beast easter egg in this song with lyrics from “Be Our Guest.” It is also the first time viewers get to hear Dempsey sing full-out as Robert along with Baldacchino, who has a wonderfully powerful voice. It’s a visually stunning number that might not be as memorable musically but works well for the story.

5. "The Magic of Andalasia"

“The Magic of Andalasia” sees the return of Queen Nancy (Idina Menzel) and King Edward (James Marsden), who were wed at the end of Enchanted and returned to their animated fairytale world of Andalasia. It’s a simple song in which they present their goddaughter Sophia with a magic Andalasian wishing wand and explain the rules to her, but in line with Edward’s over-the-top characterization, it’s theatrical and fun. Morgan even sarcastically asks if Andalasians ever just speak instead of sing, to which Giselle replies, “not if we can help it.”

Enchanted 2 took 15 years to happen, but what many viewers remember from the first film is that despite being a Tony Award-winning actress and singer, Menzel was the only character not to get a song. Getting to finally hear Menzel sing as Nancy was worth the wait and she and Marsden harmonize beautifully, their more powerful voices fitting in easily with Menken’s equally powerful orchestrations. It’s short, sweet, and to the point, and moves the story of Disenchanted along well.

4. "Perfect"

Gabriella Baldacchino As Morgan In Disenchanted.jpg

“Perfect” is Disenchanted’s big “I Want” song and belongs to Morgan. Like other “I Want” songs in Disney’s catalog, it stands out in their soundtrack, and Baldacchino really owns this number with her innocence, determination, and crystal-clear belting that makes her fit in with other modern Disney princesses. As a bonus, it is started off by Broadway performers Michael McCorry Rose, Ann Harada, and James Monroe Iglehart, who only sing for about 40 seconds in the entire film. Their song "Hard Times For Heroes" with Dempsey was cut, though luckily appears as a demo on the soundtrack.

3. "Fairytale Life (The Wish)

Fairytale-Life-Wish-Disenchanted

After the somewhat disappointing, “Even More Enchanted,” Disenchanted gives Adams her time to shine in “Fairytale Life (The Wish).” The orchestrations work much better for her voice, with her vocals and Schwartz’s lyrics taking the forefront. It’s a brilliant show of storytelling with lyrics like "What do I do if I don't belong / Where life can never be a fairy tale?" that explain Giselle’s feelings behind her decision to use the wishing wand. As this is the film’s inciting incident, the music builds with her. There are hints of another Menken ballad, Ariel’s song “Part of Your World” from The Little Mermaid, which also features a character who feels like she does not belong in her world and is longing for change. It’s a powerful emotional number, which Disenchanted proves to be Adams’ strong suit.

2. "Love Power"

“Love Power” is the biggest and boldest song in Disenchanted’s soundtrack. It allows Menzel, who was Broadway’s original Elphaba, to reunite with Schwartz, and while it isn’t quite “Defying Gravity,” it is the perfect number to show off her vocal prowess, which was sorely missing in the first film. It’s a song that seems fit for the Broadway stage and Menzel takes complete ownership of it, just as she did with her most famous Disney song, Frozen’s “Let It Go.” The lyrics even include a bit of a tease to the Oscar-winning song with the lyrics, "Let it grow / Let it glow."

The refrain is pretty repetitive, but it only makes it catchier and gets the message across, even if it is a little corny and on the nose with the double entendre about how there are those who love power and those who understand and can use the power of love. What Schwartz himself understands is the viewers’ disappointment at the lack of Menzel in the Enchanted soundtrack, and he delivers the power ballad they have been waiting for. While Menzel is certainly belting throughout the song, the final big belt makes the beginning sound like a warmup for her. It’s a truly impressive performance and with “Love Power” also being released as a single by Menzel, it wouldn’t be surprising if it becomes a modern Disney classic.

1. "Badder"

The ending of Disenchanted revolves around a battle between Giselle, who has descended into the fairytale trope of the evil stepmother, and Queen Malvina (Maya Rudolph), whom Giselle has challenged for the throne of Monrolasia. Before this physical battle, they duel in a musical battle that is unlike any other song in the film. They go toe-to-toe to try to prove to each other that they are “badder” than the other and from the opening notes, it’s clear that “Badder” is a standout song in Disenchanted that makes viewers want to dance and sing along.

It joins the canon of great Disney villain songs while referencing numerous villains in the lyrics, from Maleficient to Cruella, who they conclude they are badder than. Menken’s orchestrations are filled with boisterous brass instruments and in an interview with Zavvi, Menken said the song had evolved into a “sexy rumba.” This can call to mind a villain track from a different Marsden film, “Miss Baltimore Crabs” from Hairspray, which has Michelle Pfeiffer performing a devilish cha-cha. In a film with a lesser soundtrack, “Love Power” might have automatically taken the top spot, but “Badder” is Disenchanted’s surprising secret weapon.
