Putting these two songs (Heaven's Light and Hellfire) one after the other was genius. It really shows the contrast between the innocent and pure longing for Esmeralda in Quasimodo's heart, and the evil lust for her that Frollo feels. Even the names if the songs are perfectly juxtaposed; Quasi seeing Esmeralda as "light from heaven" and Frollo seeing her as "fire from hell". Simply beautiful.
23 months later. I think they're rushing Wreck-It Ralph too, but Wreck-It Ralph has no hope of reminding us of the old Disney...I mean, there's a MORTAL KOMBAT character in it. I would much prefer Psyduck.
Alan Mencken scored this? Seriously, how could they give a terrible song by Randy Newman an Oscar when Alan Mencken is the greatest composer for animation of all time, and Tangled's "Now I've Seen the Light" was scored by him and came out the same year?
I confess to almighty God, to blessed Mary ever Virgin, to blessed Michael the Archangel, to the holy apostles, and to all the saints and to you, father, that I have sinned exceedingly in thought, word, and deed, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault. Therefore, I beseech blessed Mary ever Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel,the holy apostles, and all the saints, and you, father, to pray for me to the Lord our God. Amen. Lord have mercy!
The Confiteor is in Latin. It is a much shorter version...in fact I think I gave too much of it above. It is followed by a Greek exclamation of "Kyrie Eleison" meaning Lord have Mercy.
The parts of the confiteor which particularly show the juxtaposition are when the statement is made 3 fold that it is not Frollo's fault, the monks are singing "mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa" when means literally, "my fault."
So you have the humble and timeless plea for forgiveness by the monks and the arrogance of the "prayer" (if it can be called that) by Frollo. It is an absolutely amazing difference. Other parts match up well, but my favorite is the mea culpa combined with the denial of guilt of any kind.
If you want to hear something more of what the Monks would've been really singing/chanting, look up Compline (Night Prayer) Monastic (Latin with English translation) on Youtube. It is benedictine, but close.
To RedDiablo, it's Latin. It's adapted from Gregorian chant, which would have still been commonly utilized at Catholic services during this time period.
New Disney movies suck ass. Cars (1 & 2), the princess frog thing, etc. all suck royally. Toy Story, Lion King, Aladdin, Hercules, the Hunchback etc. are all totally raw! That was where it was at! What happened?
@tinmanluver35 Princess and the Frog was never going to be likie the old Disney. CGI movies can be just as good as the old Disney, and that's what Tangled was. Just because it's cel animated does not mean you can go, "Oh, old Disney, you've returned!"
I have hopes that Frozen will be like the old Disney, though. And I have good reason to believe it will be. Except for the fact that it was a dead project for a long time and then suddenly BOOM, they announce that Frozen will be released
Alan Menkin is such a genius for writing this and so many other Disney songs.
It's a song about a guy who has been brought up that lusting after someone is a sin but of course marriage is a covenant before God and is holy. He wants Esmerelda but if she won't be his he is determined to destroy her so he won't be tempted. He's obviously insulted that she could have such an effect on him and wants to show his power over her, he's calling on the Virgin Mary to help him in his mission.
In your daily prayers, you should never ask for any selfish desires. When I speak to God, I ask only for forgiveness for my sins - and when I pray, I ask that He be merciful to those that suffer in our world. The sad, the weak, the hungry and poor - those that cannot help themselves.
I know it isn't much, but I think even one man's prayer counts for something.
a masterpiece in all sense, and honestly one of Disney's greatest... I still love this film do to how dark and serious the tone is, and how as an adult, you cannot help but appreciate it all, from the songs to the animation, to the story.
I remember when this movie was new. It was so hyped that it was impossible not to love for a little kid. There are things I love and hate about it. I hate how in one sense it's so sad, but the beauty of the story and the music redeem it and make it a wonderful movie.
Alan Menken, you are truly an artist and calling these six minutes a masterpiece is a complete understatement. I love how disturbing Frollo's character and this entire scene is...and although I can't listen to this without giggling for a split second at the fact that this is the same voice as Rugrats' Dr. Lipshitz, this song is BEYOND EPIC!
If anyone's interested, I wanted to put the bell sequence Quasi plays at the end of Heaven's Light as my ringtone so I managed to loop it convincingly (a harder job than I imagined) and I've posted it here on YT: watch?v=mEoQ7BXzPh0
@Vanitas61 No....In his mind, Frollo thinks Gypsies are people from hell and he is having lustful thoughts about Esmeralda and thinking he is sinning.
@Vanitas61 Lust is a sin, Frollo feels lust. Rather than doing what a catholic is supposed to do (confess and try to contain that lust) he burns down Paris, attempts to wrongfully burn the girl as a witch because she wont marry him. He's not a priest in this version, he's a judge.
I think Princess and the Frog was alright, but not the best. However, I agree with the masses that Dr. Facilier is a great villain worthy of the classics. His villain song is also pretty cool too, up there with Be Prepared, Lullaby, Poor Unfortunate Souls and of course, Hellfire.
I am sorry I am not being hilarious here but I have to say it... these two songs are... quite possibly two of the best songs by disney ever. I'm talking top two. And, in saying that, I am still trying to acknowledge how rediculously good and catchy ALL of them are. They are all great songs.
i'm tanking latin in high school and it became my goal to know enough latin to translate the the choir in the backround. I'll be sure to get back to this when I have it fully translated.
@devopuzzlepro I think I've managed to get it basically right:
"I confess before you almighty God, the Blessed Mary, ever Virgin, blessed Michael the Archangel, the holy apostles, before all the saints ... and am open to you. For I have sinned exceedingly in thought word and deed by my fault, my fault, my greatest fault, Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy"
@d4t3cHw1z They say "et tibi pater" after the omibus sanctis which means "and to you, Father" essentially. I think they actually finish the confiteor before singing the kyries, but it is too intense to tell.
@StarWarsObsession42 About as Righteous as the Pharisee praying in the temple in the Parable.
Pharisee "Oh God, look at how great I am! I don't really need you because I am so wonderful! Don't you think I am wonderful, so unlike that tax collector over there. He is pond scum."
Tax Collect: "Have mercy on me, a sinner."
Apparently we've had problems identifying righteous from unrighteous for a while...
Darkest Disney Animated Feature. Religious and political themes, and the exploration of the maddened psyches of Frollo and (possibly) Quasimodo (it was suggested by the makers that the gargoyles might be hallucinations of Quasi's).
1) The ace card given to Quasimodo in "A Guy Like You" is shown to be real, since he rips it up when Esmeralda and Phoebus kiss (it shouldn't even exist, it's not historically accurate lol.)
2) Laverne kept shooing away birds. Plus at the beginning a bird slept in a nest placed in Hugo's mouth, so it shows they're all at least real gargoyles.
I love how they use the perfect intervals from catholic hymns to modulate from the gentle F major key of Heaven's light to it's dorian. beautiful!...Yes, I know, I'm a geek, shut up.
someone should do a version that shows what the french means in captions, there is some that seemed obvious like referring to virgin Mary, the arch angel Michael, the apostles and I'm guessing sanctis means sanctuary.
Imagine if they made this into a Sing-Along video for kids, they'd be singing along to "This burning desire is turning me to sin" and "Let her taste the fires of HELL" and "Be mine or you will burn!"
do you think anyone in disney ever look at the comments on youtube? i mean, for most disney songs the highest rated comments are those that says "bring the old disney musicals back!" (not in this video though). i found princess and the frog fun but yet a bit disappointing. they didn't did wild cartoon things like aladdin or personal songs bit like hellfire or part of your world.
maybe soon they'll surprise us all disney classics fans, but for the meantime they really should hear our comments...
@ShawnFinatic13@12tayres "Kyrie/Christe Eleison" means "God/Christ have mercy" in Greek. The vast majority of the traditional Catholic mass is in Latin, but this bit remains in Greek.
@RichieRichJ3 Catholics worship only the Triune God, but also "venerate" the Virgin Mary, saints, and angles as excellent Christian examples and mediators.
Anyway the latin lines together are about the firs half of a real pray
i know 'cause of i'm italian and in my church we still use to say the italian version, which actually is not that different in the form. Besides in italy if you choose the kind of school that gives you the chance to study at the university you've gotta make 5 years of latin!
Tom Hulce and Tony Jay are both so amazing. I love the lightness of Tom's voice and the deep, darkness of Tony's. I keep thinking its Jeremy Irons singing.
I loved this movie as a kid, and I still do. It's because of this and the Prince of Egypt that I got my strong views on slavery and on it's not what you look like, it's what inside that matters.
Putting these two songs (Heaven's Light and Hellfire) one after the other was genius. It really shows the contrast between the innocent and pure longing for Esmeralda in Quasimodo's heart, and the evil lust for her that Frollo feels.

do you think anyone in disney ever look at the comments on youtube? i mean, for most disney songs the highest rated comments are those that says "bring the old disney musicals back!" (not in this video though). i found princess and the frog fun but yet a bit disappointing. they didn't did wild cartoon things like aladdin or personal songs bit like hellfire or part of your world.
maybe soon they'll surprise us all disney classics fans, but for the meantime they really should hear our comments...

Why do the villains always have the best voices and the best songs? I'm not complaining, but it just always seems to happen that way.

I would love for disney to make movies like this again.
I grew up seeing this Hercules and the old 90's one I'm 15 and I still look back to these songs.

Even if the book is darker, there's no denying that the film was dark as well, even if not as much.

Oh god. Those creepy red-cloaked guys traumatized me when I was younger. It's just that faceless appearance! It's just creepy.

@ShawnFinatic13 @12tayres "Kyrie/Christe Eleison" means "God/Christ have mercy" in Greek. The vast majority of the traditional Catholic mass is in Latin, but this bit remains in Greek.
@RichieRichJ3 Catholics worship only the Triune God, but also "venerate" the Virgin Mary, saints, and angles as excellent Christian examples and mediators.

"it's not my fault if in god's plan he made the devil so much stronger than a man"
this line describes soo well the medieval christianity's spirit
notre-dame de paris (especially the book) has got the whole medieval society and mentality

Anyway the latin lines together are about the firs half of a real pray
i know 'cause of i'm italian and in my church we still use to say the italian version, which actually is not that different in the form. Besides in italy if you choose the kind of school that gives you the chance to study at the university you've gotta make 5 years of latin!
I'm pretty sure it's that!! :)

I think after he sings "he made the devil so much stronger than a man" the chorus sing "mea maxima culpa" (it was not in the subs)
Good work anyway!!! :)

Tom Hulce and Tony Jay are both so amazing. I love the lightness of Tom's voice and the deep, darkness of Tony's. I keep thinking its Jeremy Irons singing.

Mea Culpa is Latin for through my fault basically.
KeiyarlaDraga 1 year ago
I don't think that is true, "culpa" means fault/sin and "mea" is the female possessive adjective (my) so it literally means "My fault/sin".

Tony Jay = crazy dramatic baritone. my gosh I would kill for a voice like that.

He was a great voice actor, it's a shame he was taken from us he would have done more amazing voices on shows like Avatar the last airbender.

yep, they say that line in a lot of movies. One that I can think of is V for Vendetta, and its a bishop that says it.

I guess that makes sense, culpa like in culprit.

@ShadowDJ94 "For my fault". When they say "Mea Maxima culpa" they are saying "for my most grievous fault".
Not really what kids understand, but amazingly wicked nonetheless.

I loved this movie as a kid, and I still do. It's because of this and the Prince of Egypt that I got my strong views on slavery and on it's not what you look like, it's what inside that matters.
God, that sounded cheesy. :)

Weird how Quasimodo's voice shifts from normal to soft singing like that. It doesn't matter though, I like this song combination.
