The next narrative theme found in the songs is victory.

This is when the villain is

defeated in some way, often through direct combat, in which they may be killed or

spared after pleading. This narrative theme is found in the song Let It Go, one of the

original soundtracks from the movie “Frozen”. Below are sample lines that shows

victory:

It’s funny how some distance

Makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Can’t get to me at all!
DS01

The abovementioned lines express victory. The word “fears”, which is evident in

the third line, depicts the narrator’s villain in the said song. The lines itself show how the

narrator of the said lyrics are confident enough to walk every path that the character

may take for she outperformed already her inner villain -- fears. How the narrator

expressed that her fears cannot withstand her articulates how her inner villain behaves

after defeat and how it loses its dignity and power towards the hero.

The next narrative theme found in the Disney songs is Liquidation of Lack. It is

when the earlier misfortunes or issues of the story are resolved; object of search are

distributed; spells broken; and captives freed. This narrative theme is found on the

following Disney songs: Beauty and the Beast and Can You Feel the Love Tonight.

Below are sample lines which has appealed to the said narrative structure:

Tale as old as time

True as it can be
 Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly
DS02

The precedent lines express Liquidation of Lack for there is the presence of

different initial misfortunes in the prior lines but solutions were given as well after it. The

first line, “Tale as old as time” may be one of the problems that explains how old and

aged the story or the feelings may be for the characters in the narrative but an ideal

solution was given as well after it as it was being stated in the second line “True as it

can be” which informs the reader that on the positive side, the story or the feeling may

be aged or historic but at least it is realistic not ideal. Followed by another misfortune,

“Barely even friends” which expresses a strange, unknown, and impossible union.

“Then somebody bends unexpectedly” now talks about the solution on the prior problem

how they may not be that very close and complete stranger from each other, but

someone came to connect the characters on the said narrative to solve the initial

absence. Overall, liquidation of lack is present on the given lines because an initial lack

is being resolved in the latter part. A great sense of relief and satisfaction is felt as well

after reading the narrative – this is a great mark on the presence of the said narrative

function.

The next narrative theme found in some of the Disney songs is Rescue. This is

when the hero is saved from a chase. The hero may then escape or is rescued by

someone else. This narrative theme is found in the following songs which include You’ll

Be In My Heart, I See The Light, You’ve Got A Friend In Me, and At The Beginning.
Below are sample lines from Anastacia’s At The Beginning which prompt the said

narrative theme:

I’ll be there when the world stops turning

I’ll be there when the storm is through
In the end I wanna be standing
At the beginning with you
DS14

The aforesaid lines contend Rescue because it depicts about how the hero’s life

may be saved by another. The lines portray how a character will be there for another

character to reach his/her successes or goals in a specific quest. It talks as well about

how a character will be there for the hero from the beginning of the mission up to the

end. It depicts the emergence of a helper to different obstacles being placed in the way

of the hero as an instrument of help for the main character in the narrative. The lines

remind us of the hero and the rescuer’s humanity and conceivably strengthen the

heroism in achieving the said goal of the quest.
