[quote="AladdinFan92"]I might be getting the Aladdin soundtrack for my birthday,and I'm not sure whether to get the old one or the new one. I have done research on both,and from what I found out they're both almost exactly the same,except for the added songs Proud of Your Boy and High Adventure on the Special Edition Soundtrack. So which one is better? Is there anymore information you can give me? If you know anything else,I'd really appreciate the help.[/quote]

WITH BORING STOCK ART /rant) cover art. <br /> <br /><img src="http://www.iclassics.com/content/assets/selection/10/9673E.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br />And then the Special Edition came and with it, the Special Edition soundtrack. <br /> <br /><img src="http://images.overstock.com/f/102/3117/8h/www.overstock.com/images/products/muze/music/532975.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br />The "Proud of Your Boy" demo is very sensitively done, and "High Adventure" is really an awesome song with a lot of insight about the Aladdin movie that almost was (with the 2 genies, the buddies, and the mom). If you don't have the soundtrack already and want it, I'd probably say this one's your best bet on account of the bonus tracks of unused songs and the songs and score as close to actually watching the movie as you're going to get. But I'll second AG and say the search for the original politically incorrect version could be fun! <img src="images/smiles/icon_razz.gif" alt="Razz" border="0" /> <br /> <br />(Though WHY after all these years have they not released "A Whole New World" with the orchestral intro used in the movie?) <br /> <br />And I guess as a sidenote...definitely worth the extra splurge is The Music Behind the Magic. <br /> <br /><img src="http://cache.tias.com/stores/chercoll/pictures/cas-disneyb.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br />Soundtracks to The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and a CD of demos of several songs from the aforementioned early version of Aladdin with the zillion and 2 extra characters. <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /> All of these movies' soundtracks have some demo and work tapes of songs from the films, as well as some of deleted and/or otherwise unused songs. Plus a cool book about Alan Menken, Howard Ashman, Tim Rice, the making of the music of these 3 movies, lyrics, and Alan Menken liner notes. <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /> It's amazing, and you can find it on eBay (and I think Amazon) rather regularly for not terribly expensive. (I got mine sealed on eBay for around $30.)</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>AmethystFae</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subBlack/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Sat Apr 15, 2006 2:00 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span> <table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"> <tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>AladdinsGenie wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">It depends on if you want all the extra songs/the different version of the score "Happy End In Agrabah" or not.
