I srsly need some more Disney icons.

I love how listening to Disney songs in foreign languages is something that even people who aren't interested in foreign languages sometimes do. xD (And something I did even before YouTube, ngl.) I was partaking in this most excellent of activities last night and I managed to get stuck on "That's How You Know" from Enchanted for like half an hour. Here it is in Japanese (although the subs are a little off in parts and it's irking me), Latin American Spanish, and Quebec French (haters to the left, 'cause that's my favourite kind of French xD ). I had completely forgotten how much I love this song! Fingers crossed that Alan Menken writes the songs for the sequel. <3 (The sequel is due in 2011? Oh my god, it's going to be another Pirates and Enchanted year and I AM SO DOWN WITH THAT.)

Uh ... insert some deep observation here. I'm off to find some more Disney dubs to listen to. xD (I'm also kind of in love with the Latin American Spanish version of "I Won't Say I'm in Love," mostly because of the way Megara sings "no van a oir" and "porque no todo es maravilloso." Awesome!!)

Man, just reading the title of that song is gonna get it stuck in my head for the rest of the day~

In other news, I love that you do this sort of thing, and also that you love Quebec French. I'm not a French speaker, but it's not like it's the only accent in the New World. *stands up for divergent accents.**

Also, they're making a sequel for Enchanted?

YAY SUCCESS xD xD xD xD

And yes, they are making a sequel! Last I heard, it's going to have the same director and as many of the same actors as possible. But I last heard that in, like, 2008, so it could've changed by now. But hopefully not!!

You've defeated your own plan with your later post, because it's not stuck in my head anymore. (Instead, I have a lovely rotation of the top Disney songs going, which I'm sure you'll hate. :p)

Wow, that's pretty good! I hope they've kept all the same people, too. ^^

Yeah, I always feel like it's kind of silly when people call a language beautiful or ugly. I mean, if you can't understand it, then maybe, but I've never felt called to make that sort of judgement when I don't understand stuff...

Also, I feel the need to stand up for Quebec French because I always hear people calling it ugly. It's not ugly, it's just different! >:( And secretly I find it a lot easier to understand than any other kind of French, so yeah. x)

...THERE'S GONNA BE A SEQUEL? This news makes me happy. :D

Also, the Latin American version of I Won't Say I'm in Love was totally the one I grew up with.

They actually announced a sequel way back in like 2008, I just totally forgot about it until now. x) So I hope it's still going ahead!!

You grew up with a good version! Although I can't lie, I really like the English version too. Meg's voice is pretty awesome. :D

Ohhhh. I hope it is too! 8D I'd really love a sequel for Enchanted.

Me too! XD I love the English version of the song too, but this version just makes me all nostalgic for when I was a little kid so... hahaha.

OMG, have you seen Alice in Wonderland in Japanese yet? The lyrics are so dead-on it's AMAZING (TBH it's the only Disney I've seen in JP... maybe they're all like that?)

omg it's on youtube! I remember the first time I heard that first turn of phrase and was completely smitten <3

I haven't seen that one yet! I haven't watched very many full movies dubbed in Japanese, although YouTube has definitely been helping me with that lately. I love how many people upload international versions. xD Thank you for the link!! I will definitely have to watch that one.

I'll hate on Quebec French all I want because I speak it. :P Seriously, I don't loathe it, but it sure as hell ain't elegant.

Might I recommend this:
