Isn't it a brazzle dazzle day, everyone? It must be, because it's time for a brand-new episode of Mousterpiece Melodies, the podcast all about the songs of Disney movies. This time around, Josh and Scott are headed to the small town of Passamaquoddy to learn all about the story of Pete's Dragon, the 1977 film about a boy, his animated dragon, and the con artist who wants to steal that dragon away.
Josh and Scott are joined by their first guest this week, Bilge Ebiri of New York Magazine and Vulture, to discuss the Oscar-nominated song "Candle on the Water," as well as the other nine original songs in the film. Do all of the other songs hold up to scrutiny? Should this film be turned into a Broadway musical? And which song is Bilge going to perform off the cuff? Well, you'll have to listen to find out!
