As of this week, Cozart, otherwise known as Paint on YouTube, has uploaded a second Disney tragedy.
His latest a capella mash-up looks at what happened to Mulan, Cinderella, Tiana and Elsa after their Disney tales finished. And a hint: there aren’t many happy endings here.
The original video has more than 33 million hits on YouTube, and the new instalment already has close to two million views.
Cozart told The Daily Beast the initial idea came from simply wanting to perform some Disney songs.
“I was having a Disney movie marathon and I wanted to have an excuse to sing some Disney songs, so I figured I could parody the princesses and put them in our world,” Cozart told the website.
The witty lyrics definitely bring the princesses into a more realistic, albeit crueller world.
Without giving away too much, Mulan questions her gender identity after dressing like a man for so long, Cinderella was sent to a mental asylum for her tale of magic pumpkins and Elsa struggles against global warming.
