#ThrowbackThursday - Donny Osmond: I'll Make a Man Out of You


I don't know about you guys, but Disney taught me a lot of things throughout my life. It taught me to never trust your brother if he has green eyes, that lions are cool but tigers are evil, how to tell if you have a friend in someone, that robots have feelings too, and to have an aggressive business strategy that utilises the sheer force of money to dominate the market in every single possible area. One of the things it also taught me at the tender age of 7 was how to be a MAN – but not just any man – a hun defeating, typhoon creating, fire blazing specimen of male perfection, no homo. To this day I wish I could climb a pole with a couple ribbon and a weight, or my teeth, but hey my journey is still going on. 

Descending on to the planet with the release of Mulan in 1998, Be a Man easily became one of the movie's most notable songs, and one of Disney's best to me. The soundtrack itself did decently as well, reaching 24 on Billboard and being nominated for an Academy Award. It's also this week's #ThrowbackThursday selection, so sit back, reminisce and enjoy.
