Disney Month continues with "The Evolution of Disney" by Todrick Hall. No way could I have not left out this one. I've watched a lot of great Disney videos, but this one might win for the most comprehensive Disney video ever. Not only does Todrick cover most of the animated movies, he also has songs from song of the live-action movies - including some of the Disney Channel Original Movies. Plus some theme songs of a few Disney Channel shows. He really covered all the bases and it's truly something to watch.
If you've never seen any of Todrick's videos, you're really in for a treat. The key word to describe Todrick, in my opinion? Fun. Talented, certainly. A great performer, absolutely. But he is so much fun to watch. He's one who can always make me smile.
With no further ado, here's "The Evolution of Disney".

I've been trying to wrap my head around the amount of work that had to have gone into making this. There's all the backgrounds and how long did it take to film everything? That's without even factoring in however long it took to arrange the medley itself and then there's all of his choreography. What an undertaking. I was skimming through the comments he's gotten and I think anyone that criticized him for missing a movie and/or song needs a smack upside the head. I tried counting songs two different times. The first time, I got 41 and the next I got 43.
Point being, that I can't think of another medley I've ever that even has 20 songs in it, but over 40?! That's impressive. Very much so. Worth noting that he's singing some songs underneath other songs so they're not as prominent. Did he included every single Disney song that's ever been performed? No. But he crammed a lot in there. I challenge anyone to do a more comprehensive medley. As it is, this one clocks in at 5 minutes and 18 seconds. That's a lot of material to work into that amount of time. And to have it all work. That's the other part of this - anyone can throw some songs together, but doing so in a way that works musically is something else. I always love to see people creating things like this. People with this kind of talent are special. Todrick did an outstanding job with this.
I saw some people comment that watching this is like watching their childhood flash before their eyes and that was definitely the case for me. It just took me back to that time, back when things were a whole lot simpler and fun. I feel like I get the dopiest smile on my face when I watch this. It's pretty impossible to resist the urge to sing and dance along. "The Evolution of Disney" flat out makes me happy. I hope it makes you happy too.
