Your Favorite Winx Club Songs?

Just a simple question today: what are your favorite Winx Club songs? They can be from any part of the series—the seasons, the movies, the games, Winx in Concert. It doesn’t matter. And it’s okay if you don’t know the names.

My list:
“Mambochiwambo”—Winx in Concert
“Unica”—Winx in Concert
“Magical World of Wonder”—Magical Adventure
“I Sogni a Modo Mio”—Winx on Ice
“Amiche Per La Pelle”—Winx on Ice
“Nel Segno di Winx”—Seasons 1-3
“Under the Sign of Winx”—Seasons 1-3
“La Magia di Winx Club”—Season 4
“The Power of Charmix”—Nickelodeon made-for-TV movies
“Floronomy”—Quest for the Codex
“Musacalatix”—Quest for the Codex (I think this song fits Aisha better than Musa )
Almost everything from Mission Enchantix

I’d better stop before this gets too long.

Notice I used a lot of the Italian names because, frankly, I don’t like the English versions as much.

Your lists, everyone?

Rating the Season Endings

Here’s my ranking from best to worst. I hope you don’t take this as my saying there’s been a quality drop in the series…but maybe you think there has been. Feel free to comment!

1. Season One: The Battle for Magix
It had the most action by far. Alfea, Cloud Tower and Redfountain teaming up to beat The Trix and an army of darkness monsters? Bloom and Icy’s duel in a classic clash of opposites? What more could you want? And the stakes were certainly high. The Trix controlled the power that created the Magical Dimension!

The best part of this ending: Bloom wasn’t the only hero. The other (then) four Winx defeated Darcy and Stormy without her, and the students from all three schools proved their power against the monsters. It was a group victory.

2. Season Two: The Winx vs. The Shadow Phoenix
Season two is not my favorite, but the ending was okay. It was better in the original when the Winx had to beat not only Darkar but the Trix’s converged creature. The biggest problem was the last episode focused too much on freeing Bloom from Darkar’s spell. Once she did that herself, using her healing powers (not mentioned in the special), the Winx had already won. Then came the obligatory party at Alfea. Meh.

3. Season Three: Winx vs. Demon Valtor
After watching Nickelodeon’s dub of this episode, I was…confused. I didn’t remember it being so choppy and random. And once again, Bloom was the hero. (Yes, I know the first three seasons were about her, but it’s nice when the others get to shine.) She somehow projected her Dragon Flame into Valtor and fought him from the inside. Or so we’re to believe. It didn’t look like a fight—more like talking him to death. Oh, of course, there was another party at Alfea.

4. Season Four: The Winx vs. The Wizards of the—What? It’s Over Already?
I liked season four, but the ending was so anti-climactic. Why put us through twenty-five episodes of drama to have the Wizards be defeated in three minutes? Then we had sit through more cuteness overload with the fairy pets, another Musa and Riven make up (until next time) scene, and another Frutti Music Bar concert…that replaced the obligatory party at Alfea.

Well, there’s my list. Your thoughts?

Pre-Fifth Season Thoughts about Sirenix

We don’t know what powers the Winx will gain in Sirenix, but based on what we’ve heard about season five, I’m disappointed in this new transformation. It’s gorgeous—I love how it looks like an ocean-themed Enchantix. But it doesn’t seem very useful overall.

The Sirenix transformation seems to be made for water realms (like the “inifinity ocean”), as sirena is Italian for “mermaid.” What powers would a “mermaid fairy” have? Perhaps some kind of song magic? Mermaids and music go together in fairy tales. What else? Who knows? I doubt the Winx will get multiple wings like with Believix. What’s the point of having wings if you’re in underwater?

Now compare Sirenix to the other transformations:

• Charmix: A basic form that gives the girls their wings and lets them use stronger spells.
• Enchantix: The “true” fairy form. Lets fairies miniaturize, break any dark spell with fairy dust, and “achieve total harmony” as guardian fairies.
• Believix: Beyond Enchantix. Lets the Winx “cure” human weaknesses and use three pairs of wings for unique situations. Plus, they can still use their Enchantix powers.

None of these transformations worked in a single environment or drew from a specific power source.

Speaking of power sources, won’t the Sirenix make Aisha less special? The Sophiex did the same thing to Flora by giving all the Winx the power to bond with nature.

And will all of their powers work underwater? Or will they all have the same type of magic?

Maybe I’m asking too many questions.  We’ll find out the answers as season five’s premiere date gets closer.

But I’m already hoping season six won’t be so ultra-specific.
