Disney is celebrating the fifteenth anniversary of Tangled with a particular collector’s version zoetrope vinyl that includes songs from the beloved movie.

As co-director Nathan Greno advised Deadline in 2010, “This is not a big Broadway kind of musical. We look at it as more in touch with classic Disney films of the ’50s, where music is a key element in the storytelling.”
Menken was drawn in the direction of a basic sound for a Disney musical, as he advised the Los Angeles Instances in 2010, “‘On a gut level, ‘60s folk rock felt like a fresh, interesting place to go to. I ran it by Disney to see how that interested them… We discussed it against other musical choices, but at the end of the day we decided to try the opening number in that style. Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, Jackson Browne – that’s all music that I love, and it was a bit of that mix.”
The film’s romantic centerpiece, “I See the Light” was nominated for Finest Authentic Music on the 83rd Academy Awards, Finest Music at 68th Golden Globe Awards, and Finest Music Written For Visible Media on the 54th Grammy Awards.
