Hudgens, Vanessa - Colors Of The Wind Lyrics
You think I'm an ignorant savage
You've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still I cannot see
If the savage one is me
You don't know ...
You think you own whatever land you land on
The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountains?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sunsweet berries of the Earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the Earth and still
All you'll own is Earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind

Hudgens, Vanessa Colors Of The Wind Comments
Probably one of my favourite covers of this song.
As far as I know: Vanessa is the only one on these albums w/ Native blood that sang this song. <3
2019 anyone ???
The best version
for some reason I really like this version best
Beautiful song i loved
What's nice about this version is you get to hear the original first verse.
must have been listening to herself on closed caption ruined this wonderful song
Childhood ruined
i loved this as a kid she was my favorite disney star, singing my favorite song from my favorite movei...GOOD TIMES. To the people hating on it now, its too late it happened already
I've discovered Tori Kelly last year and in my personal opinion Tori Kelly slayed this song even though Vanessa Hudgens did it first their both amazing I love them both
People, stop complaining about these songs. If you don't like them, don't listen to them. Personally I love this whole album. It was the ONLY Disney Mania CD I ever owned and I am glad someone took the time to upload this.
Thank You!
This rearrangement destroyed the magic of both the song and the voice of Vanessa Hudgens.
I love it. Don't care.
This is awful.
Decent cover! I actually prefer the Vanessa Williams version better. I will always love Vanessa as Gabriella, the brainiac turned muse with a voice of an angel.
Just Kuhn was good, Vanessa Williams was best. This isn't even good for a pop cover. This is just not good.
Ashanti was not bad. Along with Romano.
What the dang heck?! Why do you guyz think this song is bad?! She iz hot, has a great singing voice in all the songs she singz in, great w Zac Effron, and shouldn't be talked about negatively. Show some respect and admiration to a girl like her b4 I find u all and clobber u nimrods!!! ):{
You guys are really overdramatic down in the comments. It's just a cover, jesus.
Oscar, golden globe and grammy winning song ruined on a pop cover... my god... just no...
Ugh, Vanessa Williams did it better.
Judy Kuhn (the singing voice of Pocahontas, and the original singer of this song) did it best.
I agree.
Oh, God. Nope, nope, NOPE. This is not meant to be pop.
FUCK NO!!
@Julia Perry Vanessa Hudgens actually did all her singing. In HSM, Zac Efron's singing was merged with Drew Seeley's singing. It wasn't until HSM2 & HSM 3 that Zac actually fully did his own singing.
I love this version and i love Vanessa Hudgens, and yea of course nothing can ever beat the originals, but i really thought this version was still as beautiful as the original in Pocahontas. And Pocahontas is one of my favorite Classic Disney movie, along with Mulan. But out of all of Disney Manias cover, this one was better.
Who sang the actual Pocahontas version?
esta no me gustó. si la comparamos con la de miley, la de miley es un brillo radiante. a mi no me jodan. la voz de vanessa ni se permite ser comparada con la de miley.
SeeAndForget quién las está comparando ????
calláte negra del poso.
i think she would go the X fatter
-.- please just stop hating its really not that bad
This song destroys the original...this sound really bad...like REALLY bad.
at first i was hey nog bad but then BAM omg kill it befode it lays eggs -_-
I knew this couldn't possibly be good, why did I punish myself by listening
oh god it's fucking awful
get it away
The arrangement was okay, but nothing can beat the Ashanti & Lil' Sis Shi Shi version, the Christy Carlson Romano version, and the original version.
It's her voice I can't stand. The arrangement is very cool, but her voice is so thin, nasal, shaky, and flat that it's hard to listen to.
She sounds like she's trying to talk/sing while she's crying. I'm sorry but this is terrible. 2 out of 5 stars if I had to rate.
This version is really good:))
I love this version. I always love this song, and no matter who sings it, it will always be a beautiful song. Especially when you are a person that can related to you. And Vanessa can very much relate. If you look at your comments...ohhh look at the Hippocrates "This is such a beautiful song, but she is a horrible!" She is not horrible. Just at the wrong place at the wrong time. So stop hating and grow up. Thank you for uploading this song. it means a lot!
& she sounds like a porn star.
This is horrible. Why do this to such a beautiful song? All the editing ruins the beautiful value of the song.
Vanessa Hudgens, future nature tour guide.
Omg that was just like a sin to music!
Love her voice! (:
i like how she actually included the intro
Not when she sings 'Part of your World'. Miley's voice was totally unsuitable
Actually she did. Zac Efron was the one who didn"t fully do his own vocals. His vocals were merged with those from Drew Seeley
she is really good
Not as bad as Miley (:
It's not bad :) I quite like it.
It's a good song...obviously not the best, and obviously NOT as good as the original, but it's still a good song...
I think this is beautiful! what are you people talking about her being bad! please~!
123 likes, 54 dislikes. The have spoken!
ren stvens ftw
Actually I really like thi, its not as good as the original obviously but this is a separate song to the original, becuase it is by a different artist.
Go Vanessa!
Am i correct in assuming that the majority of people listening to this song would be happier if she had just sang karaoke to this song, or does the majority actually think that it's not how the song is sung, it's the song that counts?
@ArisaMikuru omg yess!!
Completely. BUTCHERED IT!!!! The original is waaaaaaaaaaaaay better!
wow, way to ruin a beautiful song..
Well this sucked.. Really bad. Bet you she doesn't even know the meaning of such a beautiful song.
i dont think its that bad but its not really good either
that sucked bad!!!!!!!!!!!!
@peguin100 it's just my oppinion and that's just yours
and i don't think the other one is worse than this
@lovingdatful Then you obviously had no childhood of the wonders of Disney or born in the wrong generation. You just can't take a song like this and changed it to a techno remix and think it would be good. Go listen to some real music.
The german version of Judith Lefeber is much better!
what are you guys talking abouit ? i love it ! (:
what the what the what the FUCKKK?????
the whole time that stupid sound thing when you begin a new sentence
you are a afwul!!!
I can't even spell the word afwul good because of you
This is just terrible. To take an amazing song and do this :/
Well not TERRIBLE but shouldn't have been sang by a chitmunk.
not bad. but i still prefer christy carlson romano's version.
Oh come on, it's not that bad. Admitedley, I'd prefer the Romano version, but that's not to say this version can't be good too...
She's raping an awesome disney song.. Hate you vanessa for doing that
um wow... this is.. a bit... not so great. the music is strange for this song.... and she sounds really strange... like this isnt the song for her... hmm it could have been arranged better for her.
This version is painful! It's hard to listen to. I tried but when I Iisten very carefully, I feel like I'm having a panic attack.
The beat isn't that bad but her voice isn't compatible with this kind of song.
ruined this song completely bitch
her voice is terrible. she didn't even sing herself in hsm. that was another girl. she killed this beautiful song.... :'( i have a cover of it
Really, I don't like when this songs (I mean, you know, movies of our childhood) become a pop songs :S In any case, Vanessa didn't ruin the song like Miley did with Part of your World :)
Is she awsome?
Way to ruin a great song -_-
Fail...simple as that. Bleh. Sorry but she wasnt good l;<
WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS? WHY DID THEY HAVE TO RUIN SUCH A WONDERFUL SONG? *sobs in a corner*
@1multikentish wat about ashanti's version
WHY ON EARTH DID THEY DECIDED TO RUIN IT?
This is a good rendition, but I like the version by Vanessa Williams way better..
What in the world is this? This is absolutely terrible. In no way does this do the original justice.
HATE THIS!!! SHE IS grOOssss SHE TAKES NAKED PIC ICKKY!
i love this song she sings this so well i love it
Vanessa wasn't better then the original but this was good it's really nice!! :)
this is disastrous compared to the original....
Ew. Thia Megia does it better.
This song is wonderful.... AS EVERYONE SINGS GOOD!!
this version is good but NO ONE can top pocahontas!!!! (it's all about that pocahontas!!!) :D
@MeereBird I so totally agree.....it could have been worse like all of Miley Cyrus's Disney remakes
Wow, that's really not good. =/ Love the song, but she totally ruined it...
well id like to see u all do better quit dissin on vanessa shes a regular person just with an awesome voice and a movie career so quit how would u like it if people said this stuff about u u wouldnt like it so wat if she saw this she'd be in tears so plz stop!!!!!
I'm glad she has the intro, but I like Christy Carlson Romano's version much better. Although, Vanessa did a very good job.
She sang good, but one thing, she sounds like she's singing from her noise.
ugh y do people do this!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no remakes of the REAL Disney
god people
@illy711 i totally agree!
she ruined this song. completely.
I'm sorry, but for a cover, I prefer Christy Carlson Romano's version. It has more feeling than this pop crap.
Christy wannabe, this ruined it.. :(
