Whoever voiced Disney's Hercules has one of the most beautiful male theatrical voices I've ever heard

Go The Distance by Roger Bart

[favoritedisneysongsmovies]

What I love most about this movie is it’s soundtrack. This soundtrack are some of my favorite Disney songs to listen to. My 3 favorite score I love to listen to from this Disney movie is “I Won’t Say I’m in Love”, “I can go the Distance” & “the Gospel Truth”

Lilo and Stitch (2002) v Hercules (1997)

Lilo and Stitch: We have traditional Hawaiian, Elvis Presley, and the Ukulele! It is a fantastic and touching blend of Hawai'i in the early 2000s. Also did you know this was the first movie to use Elvis' music without actually having Elvis in the movie?

Hercules: Herc can "Go the Distance" but is our Greek Gospel choirs of Muses enough to sweep? Just hold on and listen to "Zero to Hero" or "I Won't Say (I'm in Love)" for some dramatic build!

One thing Hercules actually gets right is how inconsistent things are in this franchise when it comes to characters and stories at times. Just like Greek Mythology in real life.

Lol I mean true. With all these different AUs of Hercules I can believe it lmao.

I mean we have the movie universe, the series universe, The Hades Challenge universe, the Go The Distance universe, and the House of Mouse universe (not to mention other Disney based video games like Twisted Wonderland and Kingdom Hearts)

I mean we have so many different versions of lore in each universe too which is hilarious like

Movie Universe: Pretty self explanatory if you’ve seen the movie lmao

Series Universe: Hades knows Herc is alive before he’s 18 and is constantly interacting with him (Pain and Panic may also be teens in this universe)

The Hades Challenge Universe: Pretty much the same as the movie universe, but more accurate to original Greek lore (Ares and Athena are Zeus’ kids and Herc’s siblings in this universe and Hades ended up kidnapping Persephone)

The House of Mouse Universe: All the characters are celebrities in the toon world and are pretty much just movie actors (however their movies seem to be based off of real events that took place in their lives almost like re-enactments or something, also Hades dates Maleficent in this universe)

Go The Distance Universe: (spoilers if you haven’t read it) Pretty much the movie universe, but with a twist ending, Meg has to become a goddess in order to be with Hercules, we learn more about her ex and her backstory, time runs differently in the underworld and that’s why Meg was tricked into thinking her ex had left her immediately when he had actually been looking for her for a while, Hades and Persephone (who is described differently than how she looked into the movie) are madly in love and get engaged by the end of the book, Meg marries Hercules and becomes the goddess of vulnerability while Phil trains Aegeus’ (he’s Meg’s ex btw) daughter to become the next big hero, Meg is also on good terms with her ex and his family by the end

Twisted Wonderland Universe: Hades is the head/founder/mascot for a Disney villain college (fraternity?) house called Ignihyde

Kingdom Hearts Universe: There’s a whole bunch of lore for those games but it’s sorta the same as the movie’s lore but literally Donald, Goofy, and a lil anime boy (Sora) as well as a bunch of other characters from the Final Fantasy game franchise are involved in the stories

And of course there’s my whole AU that’s pretty much a mixture of the movie and the series, but obviously that’s not canon 😂

But yeah, Disney certainly does like to give you different versions of Greek lore just like literal Greek lore lmao, I wonder if that was intentional? I doubt it tbh lol, Disney has had continuity and lore contradictions with lots of their other movies lol

And of course, there’s gonna be a new book and graphic novel coming out this summer (I also heard there’s gonna be a Disney Villains comic series for Hades coming too, I have no idea of when those are coming out, I’ve only seen the front page comic art of said comics, literally don’t even know if those are actually out and being sold, need to do more research on that lol)

go the distance has to be one of my favorite disney songs.. lowkey might make a hercules x reader

[zevuffie]

I have often dreamed of a far off place

Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me

Where the crowds would cheer, when they see my face

And a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be

I'll be there someday, I can go the distance

I will find my way if I can be strong

I know every mile would be worth my while

When I go the distance, I'll be right where I belong

Down an unknown road to embrace my fate

Though that road may wander, it will lead me to you

And a thousand years would be worth the wait

It might take a lifetime but somehow I'll see it through

And I won't look back, I can go the distance

And I'll stay on track, no I won't accept defeat

It's an uphill slope

But I won't loose hope, 'till I go the distance

And my journey is complete, oh yeah

But to look beyond the glory is the hardest part

For a hero's strength is measured by his heart, oh

Like a shooting star, I will go the distance

I will search the world, I will face its harms

I don't care how far, I can go the distance

'Till I find my hero's welcome waiting in your arms

I will search the world, I will face its harms

'Till I find my hero's welcome waiting in your arms

the horror when an inspirational song you're listening to for the first time sounds like something other than inspirational and you look up the lyrics and genuinely read them as encouragement to get worse :/

😍How Do You Become The Best Version of Yourself? 🤩

How to Pick a Pile? Some of us focus on the image that seems to call to us most, some intuitively choose regardless of picture. Don't overthink it. Choose whichever pile you feel called to. It may even be more than one!

Pile 1:

Solitude and inner work is what’s next on your journey. Finding your own strength is really important too. Childhood strength can be useful here. What made you feel strong as a kid? Tap into that to access the best version of you. Hard questions may need to be answered, but don’t stop believing that there is good on the horizon. Always make space in your heart for that possibility.

Pile 2:

Access the most innocent part of you that you had to leave behind. Similar to pile 1, there is strength in something you felt and did as a child. Maybe you need to believe in magic again. Maybe you need that childlike hope again. Rewatch childhood movies and spend time with loved ones. When you let go of what makes you hard and rough, your magic will stick and you won’t have anything in your way anymore.

Pile 3:

You may have been drawn to pile 2. In both piles, I got a Peter Pan vibe. Be bold in your adventure called life. Don’t be afraid to do something brave and daring. Don’t hurt others, but don’t hide your true self either. If you want to do something, do it. Peter Pan was not afraid to fly and fight Captain Hook.
