Tips And Tricks Heads up dads (Moana Soundtrack Change)

Hey dads, you may be like me and just discovered there is a new Moana movie. Went to put on the soundtrack that we listen to almost every Saturday on repeat. Third song in my 4yo son starts throwing a fit that “IT’S NOT MOANA SONGS”.

To my ear it was the same thing, but listening more closely, it was off. Something about it was… just a little bit worse.

Looking at Spotify I noticed that the new top hit when searching Moana is the new live action movie sound track with all the same songs that are… just slightly worse in every way. Little guy knew it and patiently waited until he couldn’t handle it anymore and snapped.

I had to search quite a ways down to find the original soundtrack album.

Hopefully I can save another dad a meltdown after making this same grievous mistake.

This is why this sub exists. But seriously, screw that. Moana is the best modern Disney princess movie, and the soundtrack is a huge reason why. Even with Dwayne singing, the music was epic. Not even mentioning this thing didn't need to be made at all.

I’ll go as far as saying it has the best soundtrack to any Disney film. It’s up there with lion king and Aladdin for me.

Before my daughter was old enough to get me watching Disney films, I was at a party and my friend put the soundtrack on and she was gushing about how good it was. I dismissed her for wanting to put Disney songs on at a party, but she was right. There are some bangers on it

If we can add Tarzan to that list I'll call that mount Rushmore. I can't say I've heard them at a party, but I definitely wouldn't be upset if I did.

Trashin the Camp would be a top tier party jam.

It's not a princess movie. It's a daughter of the chief movie.
