Forgot the actual trope is YMMV.


* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: Despite featuring songs from Disney movies the album isn't really meant for children. There's nothing unsuitable, but they may prefer the more familiar versions of the songs rather than the often very different musical interpretations.

Changed a trope since Refrain From Assuming is someone being mistaken about a song's title.


* RefrainFromAssuming: Despite featuring familiar songs from Disney movies the album is not exactly meant for a children's audience. There's nothing unsuitable for them to hear, but they may prefer the songs in the version they are familiar with rather than this often very different musical interpretations.

!!This project provides examples of:
* TheCoverChangesTheMeaning: Most notably, the Tom Waits cover of ''Heigh Ho'' turns it from a chipper work song into something decidedly more depressing, if not nightmarish. As for the backing track, a reviewer compared it to "noises from Gacy's basement."
** There's also Sinead O'Connor's ''very'' cynical-sounding "Someday My Prince Will Come."
