"This is a very thorough collection of songs from various Disney movies over the years. Most of the songs are familiar favorites that even those who are not rabid Disney fans (like myself) will be able to sing along with. My only complaint, and the reason this collection merited 4 stars instead of five is for a collection titled "Classic Disney" it seems to lean much more heavily on the newer movies such as Beauty & the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Hunchback etc. instead of what I consider to be "classic" Disney and the live action Disney movies with the exception of the Parent Trap and meager spinkling of a few others are totally excluded. A nice touch is the addition of songs from some of the attractions at the Disney themeparks. There is so much Disney music out there that it would be impossible to include eveything, but this collection is a great jumping off place. Additionally, this boxed set is much cheaper than purchasing the CDs individually. I purchased Volume 1 of this set a few years ago for almost half of what I paid for the entire boxed set. Its a must have for all Disneyaholics!"

Absolutely what I was looking for

"I am obsessed with Disney music. My playlists of mp3's include almost every Disney song in the past 60 years...or so I thought. I bought this CD (and waited the horrible four weeks for it to arrive), and as soon as it showed up I put each CD in my stereo and played them on a loop for days. About a third of the songs I'd never heard of, but loved. I'm only 16, so some of the songs from the older movies I didn't know, but they are great. One reviewer mentioned she was disappointed that the CDs contained so much new music, but for people my age and younger, Beauty & the Beast, Lion King and Little Mermaid ARE Disney. In summation, these CDs are absolutely the memories I needed, and well worth the price and wait. (By the way, the price? If you buy these CDs seperately, even online, two cost more than the boxed set). Buy them. You won't regret it."
