One Last Hope

To my knowledge, this is the only piece of music that Danny DeVito has recorded. After a day of this song from Disney's Hercules (1997) running through my head, I had to break out the DVD and watch it. Of course, I always think that they get the ending wrong. Hercules has been trying to prove himself a true hero so that he can rejoin his family on Mt. Olympus. When he finally does, he gives it up to stay with Megara, his true love. That's all well and good, the flaw, however, is this: Hercules becomes a true hero by giving up his life for Meg (until he becomes immortal), but Meg has already given her life to save him. Now don't you think that she has proven herself a true hero? She ought to have been made immortal too. Then everyone could have been together as a great big forever family on Mt. Olympus. Just saying.

(and sorry, I couldn't find the song for my playlist)
