Peter Pan - 19

The Original Film 


One of the songs on this list gets a lot of controversy over it’s depiction of Native Americans. While I won’t deny that there is a lot of stereotyping going on in the film; I do find it odd that you only hear this criticism directed at the Disney version. Even though the stereotype is present in the original J. M. Barrie play/novel and any adaptation that doesn’t leave out the Native American characters completely can be found at fault for this.      
  1. “The Second Star to the Right” - The Jud Conlon Chorus and The Mellomen ( Sammy Cahn and Sammy Fain )
  2. “You Can Fly!” - The Jud Conlon Chorus and The Mellomen ( Sammy Cahn and Sammy Fain )    
  3. “A Pirate’s Life” - The Mellomen (Ed Penner and Oliver Wallace) 
  4. “Following the Leader” - Bobby Driscoll, Paul Collins, Tommy Luske, & the Lost Boys Cast ( Winston Hibler and Ted Sears )
  5. “What Made the Red Man Red?” Candy Candido and The Mellomen (Sammy Cahn and Sammy Fain ) 
  6. “Your Mother and Mine” - Kathryn Beaumont ( Sammy Cahn andSammy Fain ) 
  7. “The Elegant Captain Hook” - Hans Conried, Bill Thompson, and The Mellomen ( Sammy Cahn and Sammy Fain ) 
Deleted Songs
Most of theses deleted songs can be found on Disney’s Lost Chords series. Which is an utterly fantastic series that needs more support so that we can hopefully get even more songs released. 
  1. “Neverland” - Alternate Opening 
  2. “Never Smile at a Crocodile” - the score to this one remained after the song was cut 
  3. “When the Bos'n Pipes a Tune (AKA The Boatswain’s Song)” - Pirates 
  4. “The Pirate Song” - Pirates  
  5. “Beyond the Laughing Sky” - Originally written for Alice in Wonderland was reused for “The Second Star to the Right”    
Sequels
Return to Nederland, has a lot less songs than the original film. Most of which are sung off screen by a single vocalist rather than a chorus.  
  1. “Do You Believe in Magic?” - BBMak 
  2. “Second Star to the Right” Jonatha Brooke 
  3. “I’ll Try” Jonatha Brooke
  4. “Here We Go Another Plan” - Jeff Bennett
  5. “So to Be One of Us” - Lost Boys 
  6. “Now That You’re One of Us” - They Might Be Giants
  7. “I’ll Try (Reprise)” - Jonatha Brooke
Along with a squeal, Peter Pan has also inspire a whole series calledTinkerbell. Which in turn has it’s own album series. Trying to obtain every song associated with the series is nigh on impossible but I shall make an honest attempt.
