Yeah, wasn't sure how to 标题 this one. Basically, I'm gonna go over the voices of the princesses and why they're top. 你 can expect some information too including voice actresses.
And yes, if 你 know/tolerate me, 你 can expect another thing from me that I'm sure ticks people off, but this is my opinion so...
...I don't think I have to explain myself with that one.
Favorite Princess Voice
10. Snow White
God her voice annoys me. I give serious credit to Adriana Caselotti for being an operatic singer 由 17 years old (the same age she was when casted) but for today's standards, it's annoying. It's way too high pitched both 唱歌 and speaking and it makes her sound 更多 and 更多 immature than her teenage age. Plus, how many girls have 你 heard trying to match her voice but fail horribly? Yeah, imagine a headache like that from a few girls in a choir class. I wish it was 更多 mature sounding, but I don't think 迪士尼 wanted a mature voice for the 'little princess'. Even as she aged, Caselotti's voice still remained as high pitched and annoying. Think about this: have 你 heard anything else from Snow White's original voice? Can't think of anything? Well that's because Caselotti bascially sold her voice to 迪士尼 and never had a career afterwards. In the end, she doesn't get a career and we get stuck with a high pitched princess.
嘿 fun fact for 你 movie lovers: Walt 迪士尼 is credited for being the inspiration for Wizard of Oz due to the sucess of Snow White. AND during the song 'If I Only Had a Heart', 你 can hear Adriana Caselotti, the voice of Snow White, sing the line "Where for art thou, Romeo?". Cool huh?
9. Aurora
Sorry, I'm not really a 粉丝 of the operatic voices. And what sorta irks me is that Aurora's speaking voice is all innocent and high, but when she starts 唱歌 she suddenly turns into this opera diva with a seductive voice. I'll admit, I do like to sing, but I can't hit high notes and hearing Aurora (and even Snow White) made me feel worse about my alto voice. Much like Snow, girls in my choir tried to emulate Aurora to slightly better results, but still...don't try to mimic the original. Unlike Adriana Caselotti, the voice of 3 names (inside joke from two 前一个 articles), Mary Costa, was able to have a sucessful operatic career and last I heard, she still does opera stuff. Her voice today has aged, yes, but I think Mary doesn't talk like speaking 或者 唱歌 Aurora. She just uses the normal voice that I would have liked to heard in the movie. If none of 你 think that, it must be me. I'm not gonna lie, I've had major ear issues since a double ear infection and my hearing's been so-so, so don't be afraid to admit your opinion on Mary Costa's voice.
8. Pocahontas
She upped one, way to go! I really appreciated the fact that they hired Native American actress Irene Bedard to voice the Native American princes, but I would have loved to hear her sing. Then again, I don't think any of the Native American voice actors in that movie do their own singing. Again, correct me if I'm wrong. Judy Kuhn is a great singer, but I don't think Judy's voice was a good fit for Pocahontas. Boo me all 你 want, but that's my viewpoint on it. I don't really care for Pocahontas in general, but at least it hasn't been last in anything thus far.
7. Mulan
Again, appreciate that Ming Na, an Asian, is voicing the Asian Heroine (Mulan's technically not a princess folks). Lea Salonga is from the Phillipines (so she's technically Asian too) and has a spectacular voice that worked for 花木兰 considering 花木兰 sang all the songs. When princess' 唱歌 voices are dubbed, 你 gotta make it work. This one did work from what I can recall (I've only seen 花木兰 like one time the whole way through). But Mulan's still kinda low because her voice was partly a fake man voice during the course of the movie too.
6. Belle
Paige O'Hara, what can I say? I can say she was at her peak in 1991 when Beauty and the Beast was released and her voice was a good fit for Belle. Then we reached a new decade. Oh Paige. 你 can tell her voice has aged, and not well. If you're not listening to aging Belle via Paige, 你 probably heard her 秒 voice actress in House of 老鼠, 鼠标 during the 圣诞节 song Jodi Benson, aka Ariel. This is why Belle has dropped out of the 最佳, 返回页首 5. If it's not an aging Paige, it's the little mermaid.
Seriously, listen to the 迪士尼 Princess song "If 你 Can Dream", 你 can tell time has not been kind to Paige O'Hara's voice.
5. Rapunzel
When it was first announced 迪士尼 was making Rapunzel (before the 标题 change), the original voice was going to be Kristin Chenoweth. I fangirled. I am a huge 粉丝 of Kristin Chenoweth whether it be Wicked, Pushing Daisies, anything she's in, I am a fan. Then it was announced Mandy Moore would be Rapunzel. I was slightly dismayed, but still okay because I'll admit, I was a 粉丝 of Mandy Moore. I grew up listening to her teeny bopper music, and she had done something 迪士尼 related prior to Tangled- Princess Diaries if you're interested. She did do speaking and singing, and it was pretty good. While I'd rather have had Kristin Chenoweth, Mandy Moore was still pretty good.
4. Jasmine
Fun fact, Linda Larkin was told she had to lower her voice. Linda is a high pitched speaker, but she still made a good 茉莉, 茉莉花 (whether anyone feels 茉莉, 茉莉花 needed a middle eastern voice 或者 not). 你 can tell her voice switched in and out on occasion in anything 阿拉丁 related she's done. Linda Larkin was the speaking voice, however; and there have been not one, but TWO different 唱歌 voices for Jas. The first one being Mulan's 唱歌 voice Lea Salonga. Lea's voice was absoultely perfect for the one song 茉莉, 茉莉花 sang in the original movie. But Lea did not return for the sequels. Granted she did do Jasmine's 唱歌 voice in 着魔 Tales and "If 你 Can Dream", but not for Return of Jafar of King of Thieves. No, that voice was dubbed 由 Liz Callaway. Liz is no stranger to dubbing 唱歌 voices: she dubbed the 唱歌 voices for Kiara in Lion King 2, Odette in the first 天鹅 Princess, and most famously 真假公主 in Anastasia. So she was chosen to be the new 茉莉, 茉莉花 唱歌 dub. And honestly, she was pretty good. I 爱情 Liz's 唱歌 voice and seeing as though they couldn't get Lea, Liz did a good job as the back up option- thank God that Brad Kane was able to still dub Aladdin's 唱歌 voice. Sure I wish Jasmine's voice was consistent, but 你 gotta give credit for Linda Larkin for doing the speaking voice of 茉莉, 茉莉花 for anything and everything 茉莉, 茉莉花 related.
Fun Fact: Liz Callway's sister Ann sang the theme song to the 显示 "The Nanny". Weird, eh?
3. Tiana
Again, they got an African-American to voice the African-American, way to go. Anika Noni Rose is best known for co-starring alongside 碧昂斯 and Jennifer Hudson in Dreamgirls, and she beat out celebs like Alicia Keys, Tyra Banks, and even co-star Jennifer Hudson. Anika has the perfect voice for Tiana both 唱歌 and speaking. I 爱情 that her voice wasn't too high, but it wasn't that low either. It was just right.
2. Ariel
Everything was about the voice for this one. Jodi Benson landed the role of Ariel thanks to her working with the movie's songwriter Howard Ashman in the 显示 Smile. Since landing the role of Ariel- both 唱歌 and speaking- Jodi has been the only voice for the princess. And that's good because Ariel's been in practically anything 迪士尼 what with the Little Mermaid show, Kingdom Hearts, House of Mouse, anything to bring the 迪士尼 princesses together, heck Jodi's even voiced Belle. I do like Ariel's voice, I'll admit (I liked it 更多 when she didn't talk though 'cause the character was annyoing). Her voice, like Anika Noni Rose's for Tiana, was just right for Ariel.
1. Cinderella
Groan all 你 want, but this is my opinion!
I stated I loved practically everything about 灰姑娘 and her voice is no exception. Ilene Woods (who I'm peeved DID NOT get recogintion at the Oscars in Memoriam) didn't even audtion for the voice. Some 老友记 of hers were songwriters for the movie and they asked her to do a demonstration for how 女演员 should audtion. Well once Mr. 迪士尼 himself heard her voice, he hired her for both 唱歌 and speaking. And what a great 移动 that was. I don't have much to say that I haven't 说 already. It wasn't too high, it wasn't that low, to use a different term, it was mezzo-soprano and it was perfect. Her voice conveyed any emotion for 灰姑娘 give whatever circumstance the character was in and it was just perfect. As for Jennifer Hale, the current voice of Cinderella, she's doing pretty well too. I don't like her as much as I 爱情 Ilene, but she's a good 灰姑娘 too.
So don't sue me for my opinion. And I will say, don't expect to see 灰姑娘 first for everything.
To compensate for any inconvience, here are 图片 of the voice 女演员 that I have mentioned above. No captions this time due to me having a massive headache for the past few days and not wanting to think.
And yes, all that info on voice 女演员 is from memory. So if there's anything wrong, feel free to correct me. Also, I know I neglected current voices for Snow White and Sleeping Beauty but that's because there hasn't been a definitive current voice since the original actress passed 或者 retired. That, 或者 I couldn't find any decent pics.
And yes, if 你 know/tolerate me, 你 can expect another thing from me that I'm sure ticks people off, but this is my opinion so...
...I don't think I have to explain myself with that one.
