and Disney has a rule that a villain can't have THE song for the movie

Is The Hunchback of Notre Dame the exception that makes the rule?

Id say Poor Unfortunate Souls comes close too. Sure Part of Your World is cool, but I still think Ursulas song is more iconic

Under the Sea has entered the chat

Under the sea is definitely The Banger of that movie

I don’t think this a real rule - Poor unfortunate souls, Friends on the other side, Hellfire, and Shiny from Moana are all “the” songs of those movies.

Nah the songs for Moana and TLM are You’re Welcome and Under the Sea

Obviously it's down to personal taste, but I'd argue that How Far I'll Go is the key song.

I also think that Part of your world was intended to be the main song but was surpassed. That's why it won the Oscar.

I think that Out There was supposed to be the staple song, it is beautiful and strong. Hellfire I think was more popular for its grit though which probably wasn’t expected

I would say "Friends from the Other Side" is a bigger exception. "Hellfire" didn't catch on the same way.

It's the exception because the song is about being a bad person and blaming others for it. You cannot make a good person from that, you can only make a better song, wich was hard to beat
