  • "The Bare Necessities" was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1967. The song was notably later used as the theme song to Jungle Cubs, performed by Lou Rawls.
  • "The Bare Necessities" is a song featured in the Disney film The Jungle Book and its sequel written by Terry Gilkyson, and originally sung by Phil Harris as Baloo and Bruce Reitherman as Mowgli. It was written for an earlier, rejected, draft of the movie, and was, as the only song of that version, kept, on the request of the Sherman Brothers, who wrote the others of the film. However, the arrangement heard in the film was not done by the Sherman Brothers but rather by Van Dyke Parks, in his first paid gig after moving to California. A reprise of it was sung by Sebastian Cabot as Bagheera and Phil Harris as Baloo at the end of the film. In the sequel a reprise is sung as well with John Goodman (Baloo), Haley Joel Osment (Mowgli) and Mae Whitman (Shanti).

The song was notably later used as the theme song to Jungle Cubs, performed by the late Lou Rawls, albeit as a hip-hop rendition. Baloo, Louie, Bagheera and Hathi later reprised it at the end of the series' final episode. For Disneymania 3, Bowling for Soup performed a cover version of the song.
