It's on the splash page fronting DISNEY.COM for a week but the new Enchanted - The Legacy feature is live. The aim - to demonstrate more of the links between iconic Disney moments in the film and appeal to younger audience through more animated footage. See what you think.

How do you guys feel about the film's soundtrack?
I enjoy the songs, although maybe not as much as I had hoped I would. I mean, I love Menken's score here, as well as the tunes to the songs. As for the lyrics, I don't know... I don't want to sound like I don't like them, because I certainly do. There are some absolutely wonderful, memorable and witty lines in those songs.
But personally, I think lyricist Glenn Slater captures Howard Ashman's style of lyrics possibly better than any other lyricist Menken has worked with since Ashman's passing. I seriously doubt many other people share that belief, which is fine. But having heard some of Slater's work in the upcoming Little Mermaid Broadway musical, I believe that more than ever, especially considering the songs "If Only" and "She's in Love." Just out of curiosity, I would like to have heard what Slater could have done with the songs in Enchanted.
Anyway,

I just heard the songs from the movie.
i didn't like that the animales can talk (altought that it's cute that they sounds like little kids (like Flounder) but still,when they don't talk they are the cutest).
The lyircs of the Happy Working Song are funny ("As we cleaning the spongie scum" "sing along,if you cannot sing then come along") and also the "Lips are the only thing that touch" in True Love's Kiss XD.
