LOL, I'm not sure how many of you guys have watched or do watch the FineBros react videos, but here's one I felt like sharing with the class- a bunch of millennial kids are asked to pick out classic Disney songs and the movie they come from, and for the most part fail utterly. XD These kids' parents need to expose them to some culture, lawl.

Sad thing is I'm not 100% convinced I'd do a whole lot better than them... I had a deprived childhood, okay xD

I am now tempted to try and organize some sort of forum musical trivia contest, ha. Just to see how we do.

Do they really need to know these songs? One person's classic can be another person's whatever. They knew more than I do. x3 (I just did not like Disney or musicals at all and avoided them.) (Even if I ended up watching one, I always skipped the songs. xD) (With a big exception for Mary Poppins because of the PENGUINS.)

You are entitled not to have liked Disney as a kid, the joke was more one of "my childhood isn't getting that old is it? ;A;"

(Now I do watch some scenes from those movies and appreciate them from a more adult point of view, but they just didn't appeal to me at that age for some reason x3) *stares into distance with Inception sounds* What if your childhood was already old back when it was your childhood? xD By which I mean, maybe we were already watching things that were older than us. (I watched Looney Tunes and Tom&Jerry cartoons that not a single other kid around me knew.)

(I watched Looney Tunes and Tom&Jerry cartoons that not a single other kid around me knew.) Me. I watched a lot of Tom and Jerry cartoons because they did not rely on dialogue so they were more or less universal, which is handy when much of your early childhood was spent not knowing a lick of English. I also watched a lot of Soviet cartoons growing up, some of which were as old as from the 1950s and I consider them a massive part of my childhood, to the point where I can hear a song from them and instantly be hit with a nostalgia bomb even if I forgot the cartoon. Disney was a big part of my childhood growing up. I cannot say I know all the songs or can even remember them though, since as a kid, a lot of the Disney movies I watched were dubbed over (badly) so the dialogue and often the music was lost. I also did not get a chance to watch them all. But I do agree: one person's childhood staple might be another person's " huh, what is that?" (come on, be honest, who here has heard of my personal favourite childhood film "The Humpbacked Horse"? If you have, come forward so I may squee with you.) I'm not going to judge these kids. I am sure they had other stuff they grew up with them cherish just as much as Disney. That and we don't know what the selection process for this video was. Maybe they picked out kids who did not know Disney songs deliberately so they can get views from nostalgic adults? ;D

>_< I'm no better than the kids with Disney classics, even though I have seen some of them. If it was from the Renaissance era, I could probably identify the majority of them.
I'm not surprised that these children knew 'When You Wish Upon a Star' as Disney's main theme, but were unable to identify what the title was nor where it originated from.

I could tell you the movies they were from, but lacking in the title department on some of the songs XD
