"One Jump Ahead" is a song sung by Aladdin (singing voice of Brad Kane) in the animated movie of the same name. It is sung as he and Abu escape Razoul and his guards after stealing a loaf of bread. The music and lyrics were written by Alan Menken and Tim Rice. A few minutes later, the song is reprised in a softer, more dramatic tone as Aladdin contemplates his life and desires for more. The melody is a recurring theme throughout the film's score, often used as a musical representation of Aladdin, himself.
