'We're Your Friends' was originally conceived as a rock and roll song, sung by the quartet of vultures.

The song ' Trust in Me' is based upon a song entitled ' Land of Sand' which had been written by the Sherman Brothers for, but not used in, Mary Poppins. The duo decided to do songs that fit in the story and advanced the plot instead of being interruptive. Walt Disney asked the Shermans to 'find scary places and write fun songs' for their compositions, and frequently brought them to storyline sessions.

In one of his first union jobs, famed songwriter Van Dyke Parks arranged the version of 'Necessities' heard in the film. The only piece of Gilkyson's work which survived to the final film was his upbeat tune ' The Bare Necessities', which was liked by the rest of the film crew. The Sherman Brothers were brought in to do a complete rewrite, on the condition that they not read Kipling's book. Gilkyson delivered several complete songs which were faithful in tone to Rudyard Kipling's novel, but Walt Disney felt that his efforts were too dark. Longtime Disney collaborator Terry Gilkyson was brought in to write the songs for the film. 'Overture' and 'Jungle Beat' are scores separated from one deleted score 'The Sand of Time' from The Sword in the Stone. Smith's organ score from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Two of the cues were reused from previous Disney films, with the scene where Mowgli wakes up after escaping King Louie using one of Bruns' themes for Sleeping Beauty, and Bagheera giving a eulogy to Baloo when he mistakenly thinks the bear was killed by Shere Khan being accompanied by Paul J. The instrumental music was written by George Bruns and orchestrated by Walter Sheets. The film score was composed by George Bruns, with songs written by Terry Gilkyson and the Sherman Brothers. The Jungle Book, the soundtrack to the eponymous Disney film, has been released in three different versions since the film's original release in 1967.
