Jonah Who: "Watch out Disney, Here I are!"

[nervouswreck]

Rewriting a terribly written song into one that genuinely sounds pretty good takes a lot of skill, not to mention writing it in a way that makes way more sense. You’re too powerful for Disney, they better watch out

[EmmaAllisa]

'It's no mystery where all our soul comes from' is such a brilliant line because it doubles for the sun's ancient name 'sol'

[SillyCrisp]

I love how some dude in his room can make a better song than a whole ass group of music writers that were PAID to make whatever tf the original version of this song was

[WxsxbiArt]

Why couldn’t Disney even try to come close to something this good!?😭

[nicorobin]

shame the original lyrics are so bad because the song kind of has a nice melody and vocals. the squirrel and turtle's voices go hard.

[ocnarina]

The way jonah unintentionally made Asha's character be like the enthusiastic but tired of this shit/confused person is so fun and a much better characterization. Give me a disney princess who doesn't know wtf is going on.

[Frogcoven]

1:46 Valentino just agreeing with the song even tho he doesn’t even understand what they’re talking about would be really funny honestly. Much more funny than his stupid butt jokes.

"Here's a little tree allegory" proceeds to not give a tree allegory

"THIS IS PATRICK" 🗣🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥!!!!

[MiyuandFay]

"In the game of life, we're all shareholders." idk why, but that line is really satisfying to me, from a rhythmic perspective and a literal one.

[Falkflip]

I can't get over how well "This is Patrick" fits the beat-

[guitart]

Just kinda dawned on me, the original sounds like a song to lure the protagonist down a cult-y path. Like they're singing about all the fluffy, useless bullshit to lead them astray and distract them from their main goal - yet it's treated like a big revelation.

I love it when 2 verses overlap, I love how you added that. And I love you actually adding comedy!

[SiSoz]

The "it's no mystery where all our soul comes from" literally hits right in the soul.
Edit: -did people not see the song only vid in the description of the fixing song vid- ?

[trishugnish]

Nah how does a high schooler outdo fuckin Disney 😭

[HenkePenke]

"You don't have to look too hard, it's been within you from the start." // "You've got so much to explore. We all have got to write our own story." is so fucking genius because it actually ties in with the movie's plot and themes! You don't have to, or shouldn't, rely on somebody else to make your dreams come true, that power is all yours and it's up to you to make them happen. Wishing on a star and believing in yourself are the same thing, because there's stardust within us. And them being sung in tandem is such well-crafted storytelling and I'm chewing on the furniture-

[leavemealone]

Disney, you were shamed and humbled by everyone online

[silverloony]

"I don't ****ing know, just go along with it." That's the best lyric change in the song. 🤣

Honestly this part turned from painful w how bad the writing is to kinda charming? Like sure, it’s still made up words but the “write our own story” part kinda gives it a double meaning. Like “writing your own story” as in controlling your own life but also they’re literally writing their own with using words they made up
