Moana 2 soundtrack: Full list of songs in the movie
The first full-length song from the sequel has been released!
The original Moana film – released back in 2016 – included arguably some of the best new Disney songs of the 21st century, with the likes of How Far I'll Go, Shiny and Your Welcome all becoming instant classics.
Fans will be pleased to hear that Disney's long awaited sequel, Moana 2, also contains plenty of new, entertaining songs, but this time they've been written by Abigail Barlow and Emily Bear, the Grammy-winning pair behind the Unofficial Bridgerton Musical who have taken over from Lin-Manuel Miranda.
The new sequel catches up with the titular heroine as she journeys to the far seas of Oceania after receiving an unexpected call from her ancestors.
With the film out now in cinemas, read on for everything you need to know about the Moana 2 soundtrack, including how you can listen to it.
Moana 2 soundtrack: Every song in the film
Lin-Manuel Miranda may not have written the music for Moana 2, but it turns out that he was very much on hand to give Barlow and Bear some pointers, with the duo exclusively telling RadioTimes.com: "We had conversations with him in the very beginning when we, you know, set sail, if you will. And he gave us some really great advice. He gave me lots of books from the greats, musical storytelling greats.
"And just sort of gave me an education on how to tell a story through music really succinctly and the craft of it. And yeah, with the music and creating it, we wanted to pay homage to the beautiful world that was created in Moana 1 while also adding our little spin on it. So we wanted one foot in, one foot out of the world."

Disney Music released Beyond, the first full-length song from the upcoming sequel a few weeks ahead of the film's release, specifically the end credits rendition as performed by the film’s star, Auli'i Cravalho.
Speaking about writing Beyond, Barlow and Bear said in a statement: "During the process of writing this, we spoke to a lot of people who come from Oceania and the Polynesian Islands, and what rings true to all of them is their deep connection to their heritage and how they honour their ancestors.
"No matter how daunting this journey is to Moana, she can’t refuse it. It scares her but also exhilarates her because it’s a call from the ancestors. And the idea that the ocean connects us all is a very big part of Pacific Island culture and wayfinding culture."
Cravalho added: "Beyond really impacted me as someone who feels deeply connected to my culture. It’s about going beyond what you’re capable of, beyond your comfort zone, and not doing it just for yourself, doing it for your people."
