Yeah, wasn't sure how to título this one. Basically, I'm gonna go over the voices of the princesses and why they're top. tu can expect some information too including voice actresses.
And yes, if tu know/tolerate me, tu 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 por 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 canto and speaking and it makes her sound más and más immature than her teenage age. Plus, how many girls have tu 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 más mature sounding, but I don't think disney 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 tu heard anything else from Snow White's original voice? Can't think of anything? Well that's because Caselotti bascially sold her voice to disney and never had a career afterwards. In the end, she doesn't get a career and we get stuck with a high pitched princess.
hola fun fact for tu movie lovers: Walt disney 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', tu 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 fan of the operatic voices. And what sorta irks me is that Aurora's speaking voice is all innocent and high, but when she starts canto 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 anterior 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 o canto Aurora. She just uses the normal voice that I would have liked to heard in the movie. If none of tu 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 tu 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 mulan considering mulan sang all the songs. When princess' canto voices are dubbed, tu gotta make it work. This one did work from what I can recall (I've only seen mulan 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. tu can tell her voice has aged, and not well. If you're not listening to aging Belle via Paige, tu probably heard her segundo voice actress in House of ratón during the navidad song Jodi Benson, aka Ariel. This is why Belle has dropped out of the parte superior, arriba 5. If it's not an aging Paige, it's the little mermaid.
Seriously, listen to the disney Princess song "If tu Can Dream", tu can tell time has not been kind to Paige O'Hara's voice.
5. Rapunzel
When it was first announced disney was making Rapunzel (before the título change), the original voice was going to be Kristin Chenoweth. I fangirled. I am a huge fan 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 fan of Mandy Moore. I grew up listening to her teeny bopper music, and she had done something disney 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 jazmín (whether anyone feels jazmín needed a middle eastern voice o not). tu can tell her voice switched in and out on occasion in anything aladdín related she's done. Linda Larkin was the speaking voice, however; and there have been not one, but TWO different canto voices for Jas. The first one being Mulan's canto voice Lea Salonga. Lea's voice was absoultely perfect for the one song jazmín sang in the original movie. But Lea did not return for the sequels. Granted she did do Jasmine's canto voice in encantada Tales and "If tu Can Dream", but not for Return of Jafar of King of Thieves. No, that voice was dubbed por Liz Callaway. Liz is no stranger to dubbing canto voices: she dubbed the canto voices for Kiara in Lion King 2, Odette in the first cisne Princess, and most famously anastasia in Anastasia. So she was chosen to be the new jazmín canto dub. And honestly, she was pretty good. I amor Liz's canto 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 canto voice. Sure I wish Jasmine's voice was consistent, but tu gotta give credit for Linda Larkin for doing the speaking voice of jazmín for anything and everything jazmín related.
Fun Fact: Liz Callway's sister Ann sang the theme song to the mostrar "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 beyonce 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 canto and speaking. I amor 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 mostrar Smile. Since landing the role of Ariel- both canto and speaking- Jodi has been the only voice for the princess. And that's good because Ariel's been in practically anything disney what with the Little Mermaid show, Kingdom Hearts, House of Mouse, anything to bring the disney princesses together, heck Jodi's even voiced Belle. I do like Ariel's voice, I'll admit (I liked it más 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 tu want, but this is my opinion!
I stated I loved practically everything about cenicienta 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 friends of hers were songwriters for the movie and they asked her to do a demonstration for how actrices should audtion. Well once Mr. disney himself heard her voice, he hired her for both canto and speaking. And what a great mover that was. I don't have much to say that I haven't dicho 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 cenicienta 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 amor Ilene, but she's a good cenicienta too.
So don't sue me for my opinion. And I will say, don't expect to see cenicienta first for everything.
To compensate for any inconvience, here are imágenes of the voice actrices 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 actrices 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 o retired. That, o I couldn't find any decent pics.
And yes, if tu know/tolerate me, tu 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.
