This occurred to me as a pretty fun thread idea. The movies (except LBT 1 obviously) have a healthy roster of songs on 'em, and I think it'd be fun to rank all the songs by their movie. :)petrie So let's try it...
LBT 1: If We Hold On Together (the only song lol)
LBT 2: Eggs > Peacefull Valley > One of Us Now
LBT 3: When You're Big > Standing Tough > Kids Like Us (all are great though)
LBT 4: Who Needs You? > It Takes All Sorts > Grandma's Lullaby (literally blanked this song's existence for a moment :neutral )
LBT 5: Big Water > Always There (this one's really close tho) > Friends for Dinner (hot take, the TV series one is better)
LBT 6: Bad Luck > The Lone Dinosaur > On Your Own (zzzz)
LBT 7: Beyond the Mysterious Beyond > Very Important Creature > Good Inside
LBT 8: Family > The Lesson > The Mad Song
LBT 9: No-One Has to Be Alone > The Boredom Song (Quarantine mood right here) > Imaginary Friends (I don't really count the Big Water reprise)
LBT 10: Bestest Friends > Adventuring > Me and My Dad
LBT 11: Girls and Dads > Creepy Crawlies > If Only (I don't really count the Creepy Crawlies reprise and Stupid Stompers)
LBT 12: Flip Flap and Fly > Things Change > One of a Kind (I LOVE all three though)
LBT 13: Say So > Yellow Belly Bounce > How Do You Know?
LBT 14: Look For the Light (only good one lol) > Today's the Day > Hot and Stinky > Better Off Alone (ew)
I'm curious to know your rankings, yep yep yep :duckyhappy
I'm procrastinating on my 6teen fanfic way too hard lol

Here are my rankings and notes for the songs from The Land Before Time:
LBT 1: If We Hold On Together (Note: the only song from this movie and the best one of them all. A good closing number at the end of Act II for a musical.)
LBT 2: Peaceful Valley > You're One of Us Now > Eggs (Note: Peaceful Valley feels like an excellent opening number for a musical.)
LBT 3: Standing Tough > Kids Like Us > When You're Big (Note: That guitar riff is a gem and an excellent solo number for Cera's dad.)
LBT 4: It Takes All Sorts > Grandma's Lullaby > Who Needs You? (Note: Leslie Bricusse was a gem. It Takes All Sorts would fit very well in a musical.)
LBT 5: Always There > Big Water > Friends For Dinner (Note: All three of these songs are awesome, with all three possible to be in a musical.)
LBT 6: On Your Own > The Lone Dinosaur > Bad Luck (Note: On Your Own and Bad Luck would be possible in a musical. On Your Own is the best solo song for Littlefoot.)
LBT 7: Beyond the Mysterious Beyond > Very Important Creature > Good Inside (Note: Beyond the Myseterious Beyond feels like an excellent finale at the end of Act I for a musical.)
LBT 8: Family > The Lesson > The Mad Song (Note: Family would fit well in a musical.)
LBT 9: Imaginary Friends > The Boredom Song > No One Has to be Alone (Note: Imaginary Friends would be possible in a musical.)
LBT 10: Bestest Friends > Me and My Dad > Adventuring (Note: Bestest Friends would suit well in a musical.)
LBT 11: Girls and Dads > If Only > Creepy Crawlies (Note: Girls and Dads just slaps. It would suit very well in a musical. Kinda like the "I want" song for Cera.)
LBT 12: Flip, Flap and Fly > Things Change > One of a Kind (Note: Flip, Flap, and Fly would suit as a song to showcase Petrie overcoming a challenge towards the end of a musical.)
LBT 13: Say So > How do you Know? > Yellow Belly Bounce (Note: None of these would never be considered for a stage musical.)
LBT 14: Look for the Light > Hot and Stinky > Today's the Day > Better off Alone (Note: I'm sorry, but see LBT 13 for the same reason.)
I will definitely put a list togther for a two-act version of "The Land Before Time Musical" someday as well.
