I’m sorry to say that quite a few of us were looking forward to this one. Having gorged on all things Disney during our formative years (read: around the era of Aladdin and Lion King), we were eager to sing along to some of our favourite tunes. To properly test the game out, over a dozen Disney-friendly mates were summoned, to sing until their throats seized up.

As it turned out, singing Circle of Life from Lion King was far and away the highlight for all of us. It’s absurdly fun, as are a few other highlights. Unfortunately, there are only 20 tracks on here – c’mon guys, Disney has rather more songs sitting around that’d be great to sing to. And what’s on here is – in the finest SingStar tradition – a bit of a mixed bag. Sure, the songs from Lion King, Aladdin, Little Mermaid, and Toy Story are good choices, but there are some – such as the ones from Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella – that…well, that just aren’t. And Winnie the Pooh? Really?

So it’s a bit hard to totally recommend this one – but at least you can pick it up for a fairly cheap price. Just make sure you go to the Warehouse – it’s only available from there. We had a good amount of fun with this game over the course of an evening, but I’m not sure you’ll get much more mileage out of it. Perhaps it’s best to rent, sing all the songs you want to sing, and then return it.

Of course, if you’re a very diehard Disney fanatic, and know every song, you’ll manage to squeeze fun out of everything on this disc. For the more casual person, however, try and get your hands on this disc some other way. Here’s the full track list:

101 Dalmatians - Cruella De Vil
The Jungle Book - I Wanna Be Like You
Peter Pan - You Can Fly! You Can Fly! You Can Fly!
Aladdin - A Whole New World
Lady And The Tramp - He's A Tramp
Sleeping Beauty - I Wonder
The Aristocats - Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat
The Lion King - The Circle Of Life
Sleeping Beauty - Once Upon A Dream
Beauty And The Beast - Beauty And The Beast
The Lion King - I Just Can't Wait To Be King
Tarzan - Son Of Man
Cinderella - Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo
The Little Mermaid - Kiss The Girl
Toy Story - You've Got A Friend In Me
Cinderella - The Work Song
The Little Mermaid - Under The Sea
Winnie The Pooh - Winnie The Pooh
The Jungle Book - Bare Necessities
Peter Pan - Following The Leader

The Lion King ones were by far the best. Just thinking about 'I Just Can't Wait to be King' is giving me warm fuzzies.

Lol, I didn't know what to think when I saw this? Does it have positive sounding ratings after the song for the little people?

I thought they would have the duet from Lion King with Nala and Simba. You know the one that goes "Can you feel the love tonight?". Lion King is my Favourite movie.

Circle of life reminds me of when Rafiki is holding up Simba infront of the other animals.

Hell, it's funny with SOBER people. And Fox, it would be a grave mistake for people to forget about the Bear Necessities. Luce hears what I'm talking about.

Singing Circle of Life would be pretty mental. Haha, I can just imagine people singing the african chanting in the beginning.
