12/24/2022 0 Comments Barbie princess and the pauper part 10![]() He just wants that sweet, sweet crown on his immaculately coiffed head. He’s incredibly petty and materialistic and it’s amazing.īut it’s mostly about the literal crown for him, let’s be honest. ![]() And yeah, he wants the power, but most of all, he wants the THINGS. It’s like a tasty morsel being dangled in front of him. ![]() He’s a narcissist and a materialist, and I love this whole thread of him wanting the throne simply because he can’t resist it. First, the title, How Can I Refuse? is a recurring motif throughout this movie and great insight into Preminger’s character. It is honestly on par with some Disney villain songs for me. And they are both incredible.Īnd then the next song, THE VERY NEXT SCENE, is the villain song and is actually introducing our villain, Preminger, the advisor who’s been “off on a journey” when REALLY he’s been STEALING GOLD from the queen’s mines.īut this song. Because while Eternal Barbie Voice Kelly Sheridan does the speaking parts for both Annalise and Erika (impressively, I might add, because she manages to make them sound like different people through their inflections), Melissa Lyons sings Annalise and Julie Stevens sings Erika. And the he two singing parts for Annalise and Erika jive so well. So yeah, basically, you get a lot of insight into these characters through this song. (Aside from the cheese song from Island Princess, that is objectively the best song in any children’s movie ever.)Īnd every song is not only musically competent, it propels the story in meaningful ways – which is what the music in musicals is supposed to do.įrom the opening song Free, which is a classic “I Want” song (that I feel draws at least a little bit of inspiration from Beauty and the Beast) you not only establish the main characters, but their backstories and motivations – both of which are way more moving than you expect from two pretty Barbie lookalike protagonists.Įrika is literally an indentured servant for a complete b-word of a dress shop owner and dreams of paying off her parents’ debt so she can literally be free and become a singer.Īnnalise is a princess, obviously, but every day of her life is dictated by others and when the story starts, she is being forced into an arranged marriage with a complete stranger when homegirl is OBVIOUSLY thirsty for the tutor. Compared to the original songs in most of the Barbie movies following The Princess and the Pauper, this is their magnum opus. Every song in this movie slaps way harder than it has ANY RIGHT TO.
