"I Am" Song | comment |
Bob Fosse said that most songs in musicals fall into two categories: the "I Want" Song and the "I Am" Song. The "I Am" Song is, simply put, a song which establishes a character's personality, role in the plot, and/or motivations right away. It can be more effective than setting up a character by dialogue, and it's almost always more fun. Despite the name, the song doesn't have to be sung by the characters themselves. "The Villain Sucks" Song is an example of an "I Am" Song sung by other people about a villain they despise. May also be an I Am What I Am, but not always. Sometimes the lyrics will contain I Am the Noun. Compositionally, it's often a Small Start, Big Finish number, starting off rather slow and low before growing as the character asserts themselves. Note: Contrast the "I Want" Song. Although the two are not mutually exclusive, the "I Am" Song should be primarily about who the character is, rather than what they want (there's a clue in the name). Try to avoid citing an "I Want" Song as an "I Am" Song. Compare Villain Song, which are almost always of this type (when they aren't I Want Songs), as well as Sidekick Song. See also Leitmotif for an instrumental version. Image Song is when it doesn't appear in the actual show, but rather in All There in the Manual extras. See "I Am Becoming" Song for when a character explains his or her new motivations or self. See also "I Am Great!" Song, which show how great the character thinks of themselves. Can overlap with Job Song if a character's job is a significant part of themselves. |

''Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. "A Man's Gotta Do" starts out as an "I Want" Song for Dr. Horrible but then Captain Hammer hijacks it and makes it his very own, very hammy I Am Song. "Bad Horse Chorus" for the Animal Supervillain Bad Horse, actually a "He Is" song. "Penny's Song", appropriately, for Penny. |

Next to Normal "I'm Alive" takes this pretty literally. Most of the lyrics starting with "I am..." "I Am The One", in which Dan and Gabe compete for Diana's attention, has both men describing what makes them fit to care for Diana. "Superboy and the Invisible Girl" combines this with a "I Want" Song, about how Natalie feels she is always ignored, and wishes she could be free of her mother's expectations. |

From the Disney Animated Canon: Pinocchio has "I've Got No Strings". "We're three caballeros!" "I'm a Happy-Go-Lucky Fellow" from Fun and Fancy Free, which was originally created for Pinocchio but was ultimately not used. Western Animation Robin Hood 1973 has "The Phoney King of England" which also serves as an example of "The Villain Sucks" Song about Prince John. "Thomas O'Malley's Song" from The Aristocats. "The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers" from the Disney Winnie the Pooh cartoons. "Why Should I Worry" from Oliver & Company is Dodger's. And "Perfect Isn't Easy" is Georgette's. And boy does she ever want you to know it. The Little Mermaid (1989): "Poor Unfortunate Souls" for Ursula. Also, "Les Poissons". The stage adaptation has "The World Above", in which Ariel sings about her differences from the rest of her mer-family and her identification with the surface world. Eric originally had a counterpart titled "Where I Belong", which was dropped after the Denver pre-Broadway tryout, but partially reinstated as an interlude during "Fathoms Below" in the post-Broadway revised production. Beauty and the Beast "Belle" introduces Belle's enjoyment in reading and dreaming about exciting adventure, the other villagers' regarding these as strange interests for a young woman of their era, Gaston's desire to marry Belle, and the other villagers' admiration of his handsomeness and masculinity. It covers all this in only five minutes. It also serves as an "I Want" Song ("There must be more than this provincial life ..."), though the official I Want Song in the movie is the reprise to "Belle". "Gaston." It's sung by Le Fou and Gaston predominately. It's almost a subversion of "The Villain Sucks" Song, as everyone in Belle's town loves Gaston except her and her father. The Broadway musical version also includes the aptly named "Me", sung by Gaston himself as he tries (unsuccessfully) to woo Belle. "One Jump Ahead" from Disney's Aladdin. The Genie has "Friend Like Me", where he establishes his powers and personality. The Nightmare Before Christmas: He is, indeed, the Oogie Boogie Man. From the same movie, "Jack's Lament" is both this and an "I Want" Song. Several verses of "This Is Halloween" include the citizens of Halloween Town introducing themselves, including a creature who lives under your bed, one who lives under the stairs, a clown with a tear-away face, and the "who" when you call "who's there?". "We Are One" from The Lion King II: Simba's Pride for Simba, though it's an "I Want" Song for his daughter Kiara. The first and only song in The Emperor's New Groove (before the credits) is an I Am Song. Also, "Panchito's Song" from House of Mouse. Maui's song "You're Welcome" from Moana is all about Maui's many triumphs such as slowing the sun and lifting up the skies. And, fittingly, "I am Moana (Song of the Ancestors)", a reprise of Moana's "I Want" Song. Tamatoa's Villain Song "Shiny" is, fittingly, a song about how Tamatoa is shiny and better than his reputation of a bottom-feeder. |

The bitterly ironic "Rich and Happy" from Merrily We Roll Along: Frank has sold out his principles, abandoned his dreams and destroyed his most important friendship... but he's "rich and famous and therefore happy too". And if you believe that, there's a bridge in Brooklyn I'd like to sell you. | |

Additionally, "Special" is Lucy The Slut's I Am Song. "Everyone's A Little Bit Racist" is a We Are Song where the cast acknowledges that they all carry unconscious biases. |

RWBY has a few of these in its soundtrack. Yang gets I Burn and Armed and Ready among others. The former describes her as a a badass fighter who can't be beaten and showcases her hot blooded and boisterous personality. The latter has to do with her character development after the Fall of Beacon and losing her arm to Adam, detailing how she's getting through her pain and becoming stronger for it. Strangely enough, Neon Katt of all people, gets a song called Neon, a very peppy, pop song full of back-handed compliments telling someone how they can work really hard and maybe get to be almost as amazing as she is. Weiss has several songs such as Mirror Mirror and It's My Turn, the former about her lonely life with a neglectful and abusive father who has controlled her every choice in life, and made her believe she would never amount to anything without him. The latter explains how she is realizing how wrong her father was and how she is finally finding independence. Emerald and Mercury share the song I'm the One, which plays during their match against Coco and Yatsuhashi. The song is about how the two have gone through hell and come out stronger, and as a result will crush their opponents. |

Beauty and the Beast "Belle" introduces Belle's enjoyment in reading and dreaming about exciting adventure, the other villagers' regarding these as strange interests for a young woman of their era, Gaston's desire to marry Belle, and the other villagers' admiration of his handsomeness and masculinity. It covers all this in only five minutes. It also serves as an "I Want" Song ("There must be more than this provincial life ..."), though the official I Want Song in the movie is the reprise to "Belle". "Gaston." It's sung by Le Fou and Gaston predominately. It's almost a subversion of "The Villain Sucks" Song, as everyone in Belle's town loves Gaston except her and her father. The Broadway musical version also includes the aptly named "Me", sung by Gaston himself as he tries (unsuccessfully) to woo Belle. |

The first ending to the Food Wars! anime seems to be from the perspective of secondary character Megumi outlining her character arc where she starts in a negative spiral where low self confidence negatively affects her confidence, causing her to panic and do worse. From there she meets Souma and manages to get out of her funk and prove her actual talent as a down to earth chef who cooks simple, comforting things rather than flashy impactful food like most of the rest of the cast. | |

In Final Fantasy XIV, many of the themes for the trial bosses have lyrics explaining their personality and nature. Since most are adversaries if not outright villains, it often overlaps with Villain Song. The song Shadowbringers - the theme for the titular expansion - is a bait-and-switch for the Warrior of Light themselves. While most of the song details the struggles and fate of the First, a constant refrain of 'One Brings Shadow, One Brings the Light' eventually culminates in the song closing with 'I am Shadow, I Am The Light.' Notably, the trailer this song debuted to has the iconic Warrior of Light struggling across the apocalyptic wasteland of the First, seemingly broken and all hope lost, and the final line is said as the Warrior becomes a Dark Knight to slay a Sin Eater, indicating his transformation to the Warrior of Darkness. It takes on a further meaning as it is used during the first phase of the expansion's final boss, Emet-Selch/Hades, as you are fighting an Ascian - the harbingers of darkness - and win by turning the light you've contained over the expansion against him. Despite one of the expansion's big plot hooks being you becoming the Warrior of Darkness and some of the twists indicating Hydaelyn and the Light as a power may not be as benevolent as initially thought, your Warrior still returns to the light, needing to embrace both it and darkness to win. I am shadow, I am the light, indeed. |

Wicked: "A Sentimental Man" is a subversion. The Wizard believes what he's saying, but it's only later that the audience finds that he has his own ideas about who qualifies as a "citizen of Oz" and that part of his motivation for helping Elphaba is to use her magic for his own ends. "Defying Gravity" is more of an "I Am Becoming" song, since Elphaba's entire character for the second act stems from that song...both the good and the bad. "Popular" is an interesting twist, as it's supposed to be about Elphaba and Galinda's attempt at making her, well, popular. However, it's quite clear that Galinda's plan for achieving this is to make Elphie as much like her as possible, thus making it an "I Am" Song. |

Batman: The Brave and the Bold: "Birds of Prey" is a "We Are" song by, of course, the Birds of Prey. Bullies used to pick on him because he sang in choir, but something very strange occurred when he kept singing higher. The ruffians around him quickly fell into a trance, and it was then— with wicked glee—he made those puppets dance! He's the MUSIC MEISTER! |

Six is chock-full of these: "Ex-Wives" is a rare group We Are song performed by all the queens. "Don't Lose Ur Head" sung by Anne Boleyn. "Heart of Stone" sung by Jane Seymour. "Get Down" sung by Anna of Cleves. Also a Boastful Rap. "All You Wanna Do" sung by Katherine Howard. Interesting version as it is mostly about how she is shallowly seen by others. "Six" is another group We Are song performed by all the queens. Also doubles as a We Are Becoming Song. |

His theme song is him affirming his decision to come clean: | |

Miracle of Sound: Numerous songs are written from the first-person perspective of the or a main character from a given work as they describe themselves in song. "I Am Pudge", naturally, is a rather meta song about Pudge bragging about his fame in the Dota 2 fanbase as a rather overpowered character. The Game of Thrones songs include "Halfman's Song" for Tyrion Lannister, "Mother of Flame" for Daenerys and "No One" for Arya Stark. "I Am the Knight"; also doubles as a Badass Boast. "Force of Nature" is one for Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn, where she describes her motivations and backstory. |

From the 2013 adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: "Almost Nearly Perfect" establishes Charlie Bucket's creative nature and Cheerful Child disposition, despite his hardscrabble life. Augustus Gloop and his family have "More of Him to Love", which claims that the boy is Big Fun but reveals he's really more of a Fat Bastard. "When Veruca Says" establishes both her Greed and her father's indulgent nature. "The Double Bubble Duchess" is a Boastful Rap for the gum-chewing starlet and her Shameless Self-Promoter dad. "It's Teavee Time" has Mrs. Teavee desperately trying to convince the media that her son's just a little high-strung and that they have an idyllic, 1960s sitcom-inspired life, but failing miserably — especially when Mike himself speaks up. Willy Wonka has the bridge part of his "I Am Great!" Song "It Must Be Believed to Be Seen" and "Simply Second Nature" (which overlaps with I Am What I Am) to establish that his strange creations are borne of a desire to make the world a lovelier place, even if others don't understand or fully appreciate what he's doing. |

Legally Blonde has a late-in the story version in the song "Legally Blonde", in which Elle, after seeing her future in law disappear, dejectedly expresses that she's nothing but what everyone always thought ("some girls fight hard, some face the trial, some girls were just meant to smile"). In the "remix" version a scene later, Elle reclaims her confidence with a much more upbeat "I Am" song, in which she finally figures out an identity encompassing both her legal talents and her "sorority girl" personality, as exemplified by her pink suit. |

Steven Universe: Garnet has "Stronger Than You" (spoilerific!). It’s about how she's the literal manifestation of the love between Ruby and Sapphire and how she'll beat the crap out of those who want hurt her friends. The theme song of the show, "We Are The Crystal Gems", also counts—especially the extended version. Steven Universe: The Movie features "True Kinda Love", Steven and Garnet’s most soothing "I Am" Song, at its climax, that also qualifies as a Friendship Song and The Power of Love. |

Centaurworld: "Holes, Part 2": "Butt of the Joke" is a song by Horse's tail about how he loves being a comedian and in the spotlight. "The Rift: Part 1": Parodied when Comfortable Doug crashes the farewell party to sing about how he's Comfortable Doug and is, in fact, very comfortable. |

Phineas and Ferb provides a few examples, most blatantly Vanessa's "I'm Me". For variants, there's Perry's theme song noteextended version here (a "He Is") and "The Fireside Girls Song" (a "We Are"). | |

AJ Styles' theme in TNA, in one incarnation, was actually titled "I Am." The later remix, "Get Ready to Fly", has completely different lyrics, but is still an I Am song. Stable Fortune's theme has this: "We are, we are! Fortune Four!" |

"The Song of Dusk" from Märchen isn't an "I am" song so much as it's a "Who am I?" song in which the eponymous character knows nothing of who he once was, only that he's woken up at the bottom of a well with a Creepy Doll in his arms and feels an intense desire to enact revenge and seeks to satisfy it by granting the chance at revenge to others. | |

Nightmare Time: "Latte Hatte" establishes Zoey's ego, and how she's know for being attractive. It also confirms that she is the barista that Ted is attracted to in The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals. "Queen B" establishes that Linda's wealth and influence on the people around her. |

The Herbs: Every character gets a short, four-line song to themselves that describes their personality. Parsley gets the lion's share of these (pun not intended) due to him being the focus character, with many variations depending on his current situation. | |

Chicago "All I Care About Is Love" . Of course, he's lying, but... Mama also has her own song, "When You're Good to Mama", which is more accurate (metaphorically, anyway). Amos has "Mr. Cellophane". |

Both are used to reveal what the respective factions do for a living, which is to say plunder and pillage and consuming everything in sight respectively. | |

"The Barber and His Wife" from Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, though the title character who sings this speaks of himself in those days in the past tense because as far as he's concerned, That Man Is Dead. It gets a Dark Reprise at the end of the play after Sweeney unknowingly kills his wife, learns of Mrs. Lovett's treachery in not telling him said wife was still alive, and then throws her in the oven. Another example for Todd is, of course, his part of "The Ballad of Sweeney Todd". Meanwhile, Mrs. Lovett has "The Worst Pies in London", which tells you just about everything you need to know about that character in two minutes flat. And Adolpho Pirelli gets his entrance which actually opens with the lines "I am Adolpho Pirelli, / Da king of da barbers..." |

A number of Professional Wrestling entrance themes (at least the ones with lyrics) fit this pattern. Of particular note: AJ Styles' theme in TNA, in one incarnation, was actually titled "I Am." The later remix, "Get Ready to Fly", has completely different lyrics, but is still an I Am song. Stable Fortune's theme has this: "We are, we are! Fortune Four!" Triple H: "I am the game, you don't wanna play me..." Chyna's theme was titled "Who I Am." "I am Lei'D Tapa, the Queen of Rings" Colt Cabana's theme, "Boom Boom", is more of a He Is song, but otherwise fits the trope well, talking about Colt walking away from "Corporate America" (i.e. WWE), his love of Chicago, and his desire to create "Good times, great memories". Chris Jericho: "I am the Master of your whole heap. I am the Pastor, flock you like Sheep." Dolph Ziggler: "I am perfection!" The Nation of Domination: "We are the Nation...of Domination!" |

Maui's song "You're Welcome" from Moana is all about Maui's many triumphs such as slowing the sun and lifting up the skies. And, fittingly, "I am Moana (Song of the Ancestors)", a reprise of Moana's "I Want" Song. Tamatoa's Villain Song "Shiny" is, fittingly, a song about how Tamatoa is shiny and better than his reputation of a bottom-feeder. |

"Stars" for Inspector Javert, although it borders on the "I Want" Song, but then, Javert's character is defined by its goals. And for Jean Valjean, it's the side-splittingly obvious name for an I Am Song: "Who Am I?" | |

The 2005 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie had its own take on this concept with Wonka's Welcome Song, which was written by Wonka himself, and could also be said to represent some of his character traits. Again, he is far more eccentric than the song suggests, as it only concentrates on his "positive" traits. | |

Toy Story has two: Woddy's "I am" song is "Strange Things": Woody has gone from top toy and loved by Andy to falling out of favor over the new Buzz Lightyear. Understandably, he's rather bitter about the situation. The first two stanzas are the best examples of the song's meaning. Buzz's is "I Will Go Sailing No More", a somber song of Buzz (painfully) coming to terms with he's not a space ranger, just a toy. |

Hetalia: Axis Powers: The ending theme, "Maru Kaite Chikyuu", along with its variations by the different characters. There are also some of the character songs, namely "I am German-Made" for Germany, "Absolutely Invincible British Gentleman" for England, "My Heart Has a Light" for Russia and both "Mein Gott" and "My Song That Is Written By Me, For Me" for Prussia since he's all about telling people who he is. | |

The Bible: Satan in Isaiah 14:12-15. There's a rather strange example at the end of Deuteronomy. Moses' final lesson to Israel before his death is to teach them a national anthem: a song spelling out the future of Israel, complete with the fact that they will grow rebellious and turn away from God, and that this apostasy will spell disaster for their descendants, ultimately leading to their scatter and the destruction of all but a remnant. Also, Psalm 51. |

An interesting example in Stephen Sondheim's Assassins: in "Unworthy of Your Love" where John Hinckley Jr. and Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme sing for their respective Love Interests. While at first it sounds like an "I Want" Song, it's really about Hinckley and Fromme's insecurity and how they are completely lost in their lives. It even begins with 'I am'. "Another National Anthem" is one for the Assassins in general. |

The Producers has "The King of Broadway." Though in this case, it's more of an "I used to be" song. This song doesn't appear in the film adaptation of the musical, however. Roger De Bris and Carmen Ghia have "Keep it Gay" though it is in part an "I Want" Song about his desire to make more lighthearted productions. Ulla has "When You got it, Flaunt it.'' |

Sonic the Hedgehog Shadow the Hedgehog's theme song for his titular game, which is (seriously) named "I Am... All of Me". Eggman's theme E.G.G.M.A.N. from Sonic Adventure 2. The chorus is "I am the Eggman. That's what I am." Also from the Sonic Adventure games, there is Sonic's theme, "It Doesn't Matter". While each game has its own version of the song (the original has a very laid back feel while the sequel is much faster paced), both versions are sung by Tony Harnell, and the lyrics (more or less the same in both versions) really describe Sonic in general. Also Knuckles's Unknown from M.E. Although the song has different lyrics in Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2, both versions count. The former is a better example though. Infinite's theme from Sonic Forces is basically just one big Badass Boast about how powerful he is. |

"All I Ever Wanted" from The Prince of Egypt is a deconstructed version.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: It provides the Cutie Mark Crusaders' Theme Song (a "We Are") from "The Show Stoppers". It could also double as an "I Want" (referring, of course, to cutie marks). "Sweet and Elite" has "Becoming Popular (The Pony Everypony Should Know)", which tracks Rarity's rise in the Canterlot social hierarchy. "The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000" introduces two self-proclaimed "traveling salesponies nonpareil" and their titular machine with "The World-Famous Flim-Flam Brothers". It also doubles as a Villain Song. "A Friend in Deed" gives us Pinkie Pie's "Smile Song", which perfectly describes her personality. "Magical Mystery Cure" brings us a rare inversion, "What My Cutie Mark is Telling Me", when five of the mane six get their cutie marks switched. "Rarity Takes Manehattan" has Rarity's "Generosity". Much like Pinkie's "Smile Song", it explains her worldview and connection to the element she represents. It later gets a Dark Reprise after complications relating to her generous nature cause her to have a breakdown. In "Pinkie Pride", "The Super Duper Party Pony" is this for Cheese Sandwich (voiced by "Weird Al" Yankovic), in which he explains just what kind of party pony he is. |

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory has interesting twists: The opening number "The Candy Man" is a typical celebration of a title character, but none of the other characters, to say nothing of the audience, has actually seen him in years. Willy Wonka, who turns out to be far more eccentric than expected, has his own I Am Song in "Pure Imagination", which better fits his personality, especially with its choreography. (It also doubles as a Follow Your Heart song.) The 2005 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie had its own take on this concept with Wonka's Welcome Song, which was written by Wonka himself, and could also be said to represent some of his character traits. Again, he is far more eccentric than the song suggests, as it only concentrates on his "positive" traits. |

Repo! The Genetic Opera, being a rock opera and featuring an ensemble cast, has one for the majority of the characters. Perhaps the two most classic examples are "Legal Assassin" and "Things You See In A Graveyard", which introduce Nathan and Rotti's characters, respectively, their motivations, their pasts, and much of the plot besides. Also "Seventeen" and "Infected". The latter is incredibly whiny, but still an I Am Song. |

The Little Mermaid (1989): "Poor Unfortunate Souls" for Ursula. Also, "Les Poissons". The stage adaptation has "The World Above", in which Ariel sings about her differences from the rest of her mer-family and her identification with the surface world. Eric originally had a counterpart titled "Where I Belong", which was dropped after the Denver pre-Broadway tryout, but partially reinstated as an interlude during "Fathoms Below" in the post-Broadway revised production. |

Great Mazinger's theme, "Ore Wa Great Mazinger" is easily this. It can also be considered to be an almost-literal "I Am Great!" Song, seeing as the not only does the title translate to "I Am Great Mazinger", "Ore Wa" is the boastful version of the phrase "I am" and the song boasts about how it doesn't shed tears and wants to kick evil's ass. | |

The Nightmare Before Christmas: He is, indeed, the Oogie Boogie Man. From the same movie, "Jack's Lament" is both this and an "I Want" Song. Several verses of "This Is Halloween" include the citizens of Halloween Town introducing themselves, including a creature who lives under your bed, one who lives under the stairs, a clown with a tear-away face, and the "who" when you call "who's there?". |
