    "What Else Can I Do" is honestly my favorite song from Encanto. I feel like it naturally fits into the story, manages to believably flesh out Isabela as a character in such a short period of time, and it's just fantastic from a musical standpoint as well.

"The Money" also has very emotion-filled vocals. 21 Chump street is the best 15mins you'll ever spend on KZread.

My 4yo is constantly singing What Else Can I Do or Waiting on a Miracle around the house, when she's not singing anything from Moana that is. And the entire movie and music from Vivo are underappreciated, a favorite in our house!

    As a teenage girl who is basically trying to write a musical based on "Vivo," I'm so happy that "One More Song" is on the top 3. It's one of my favorite songs in the movie because it makes me cry, but it also empowers me to do more and find some goodness while taking steps on a big journey. And besides, I actually love Lin's singing voice in the song so much. He's filled with emotion, but also filled with power and encouragement, and I LOVE THAT. And as I was writing a few lyrics to all of my new original songs for my "Vivo" musical project, I also wrote a second reprise to "One More Song," since the original song had one reprise in the movie that absolutely broke my heart, so before I finished writing the script, I wrote my very own lyrics to the second reprise of "One More Song" so it could make a lot more sense. Even though it was a short song that I wrote, it was very quick and easy for me to write, and I actually got emotional while singing my own lyrics to myself. Besides, I tried to make it very heartwarming. And yes, I really think "Vivo" is so underappreciated and it needs more love. So even though I'm a younger teenage girl in high school, I'm writing the musical because I think the movie is PERFECT as a Broadway show, and also because I want to finally be able to give it a chance to shine on the stage in the future.

At least it is nominated for an Oscar which it absolutely deserves.

    What Else Can I Do is my favorite song! We finally have a movie with characters of Latin roots and I feel so represented as isabela. The perfect, silent beauty, with great grades and never disobeys. I always felt so much pressure that i can't be myself or make any mistakes because everyone always assumes everything is easy and perfect for me. When I first heard What Else Can I Do I started crying because of sadness and happiness. I felt as though i myself will never break out of my perfection image but i felt happy that at least a fictional character like Isabela could and is living so much better now. Definitely my favorite Disney Heroine. (Super underrated song and character imo. I felt as though the other songs were getting advertised more and released earlier so that they wouldnt flop and so what else could I do would stand out, but ended up doing the opposite.

    "I am Moana" is especially powerful because you draw your individual strength from your ancestors, and there is a core proverb that translates as "look back in order to move forward." When Moana realises that the voyager she is at her core is *not* betraying her lineage, because she comes from millennia of voyagers (even though recent generations grew fearful), and they then appear and reinforce/reinvigorate her, it is amazing. Makes me cry every time.

Also her line when says "I'm not fine...I'm not fine." IT DESTROYED ME!
