1. Part of Your World
2. For the First Time in Forever
3. Go the Distance
4. Belle
5. Mother Knows Best
6. When Will My Life Begin
7. How Far I'll Go
8. This Wish
9. One Jump Ahead
10. Almost There
11. Heaven's Light


10+11 make relatively little impact, but I also acknowledge that's kind of by design. They aren't built for big moments the way the higher ranking numbers are. (I like the way they weave the "Heaven's Light" reprise into "In a Place of Miracles" in the stage adaptation.)

"This Wish" is actually the emotional highpoint of the entire movie, so it gets a slightly higher placing even if I don't think much of the soundtrack.

"For the First Time in Forever" and "Mother Knows Best" get points for successfully changing the entire tone of the song and creating some genuinely gripping drama. [Dang it, I forgot to rank Jafar's "Prince Ali." Probably around 6 or 7.]

And of course, "Little Mermaid" just gets the gold in any kind of musical ranking.
