<P> The brothers composed multiple songs , but only the title song and `` Scales and Arpeggios '' were included in the film . Desiring to capture the essence of France , the Sherman Brothers composed the song `` The Aristocats '' . Disney film producer Bill Anderson would ask Maurice Chevalier to participate in the film . Following the suggestion , Richard Sherman imitated Chevalier 's voice as he performed a demo for the song . Chevalier received the demo and was brought out of retirement to sing the song . Deleted songs that were intended for the film included `` Pourquoi ? '' sung by Hermione Baddeley as Madame Bonfamille , its reprise , and `` She Never Felt Alone '' sung by Robie Lester as Marie . For the show - stopping number , the Sherman Brothers composed `` Le Jazz Hot '' , but the filmmakers preferred `` Ev'rybody Wants to Be a Cat '' composed by Floyd Huddleston and Al Rinker . Lastly , a villainous song was envisioned to be sung by Edgar and his assistant Elmira as a romantic duet , but the song was dropped when Elmira was removed from the story . </P>
