Circle of Life - Composed by English musician Elton John, with lyrics by Tim Rice, the song was performed by Carmen Twillie (the deep female lead vocals) and Lebo M (opening vocals in Zulu) as the film's opening song. "Circle of Life" was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1994 for Lion King. (Can You feel the Love Tonight won the award, which blows my mind.)
Love is an Open Door - Written by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez for Frozen (2013). Performed by Kristen Bell and Santino Fontana as Anna and Prince Hans respectively. The song was intended by Lopez and Anderson-Lopez to "feel like the perfect first date", inspired by the date depicted in the film The Karate Kid (1984). Anderson-Lopez explained she was eating a sandwich at the time she wrote the line, but had not seen the show, and it was not until Lopez's brother pointed out the connection that they realized audience members might hear it as an Arrested Development reference.
