Songs that remind you of the parks?...

[jayduk]

I'm currently putting together a video of all our photos from our trip last year for my G/F (a possible Valentines surprise) and i'm splitting them all up into sections focussing on each park at a time. I'm trying to think of some music that can go with each park, so far i've come up with the following..

DHS - Fantasmic Soundtrack
AK - Circle of Life
SW -Something Far Greater (soundtrack from Believe)
MNSSHP - Boo To You Parade Soundtrack

Can anyone suggest some for the rest...

Magic Kingdom, Islands of Adventures, Universal Studios and Epcot??...

I'm going to end with a montage of mixed photos from the entire holiday and use Black Eyed Peas 'I Gotta Feeling' as that was always on the radio when we were there and always makes us think of the trip.

I also thought it'd be a fun topic for you guys to share what songs make you think of parks/attractions etc...

Black Eyed Peas - I gotta feeling. Good choice

One that I would definately recommend for IOA is Leave You Far Behind by Lunatic Calm. This is the song that is always playing as you walk around the Super Heros part of the park.
DWs sister liked the song so much from Florida it has been her ring tone for about the past 3 years

For EPCOT you could use the music from Soarin'.

For MK there is a nice piano version of Spectromagic by David Benoit on a CD called 'Music From The Parks' which I used for my slideshow and I have heard it on a couple of other slideshows as well.

Not music from the parks, but inspired by your Black Eyed Peas shout, 'I'm Yours' by Jason Mraz is our reminder song. Was always on the radio last time

 

[DISWolves]

For Magic Kingdom - Splash Mountain Medley / Its a small World from the CD Where the Magic Lives
EPCOT - Reflections of Earth from the CD EPCOT Tapestry of Dreams
As for Universal - A CD was released called Islands of Adventure - Official Soundtrack
This is no longer produced, but you may get a copy off Ebay

MK : When you wish upon a star?

MK -POTC film orchestral music
DHS - Dream on & HSM
Epcot - Summer of 69

MK : When you wish upon a star?

Another vote for this. I always associate this song with the MK.

i kinda like one of the tarzan songs. not sure what it is....think the tune goes welcome to our family time?? i forget at the mo. very animal kingdom imo.

That reminds me of DLP, I think because of the Tarzan show.

Call me predictable but you can't beat the song from the Pirates of the Carribbean ride or the cheesy but oh so cute 'It's a Small World'.

Bought a CD one year with all the music from Wishes.

Favourite for us though has to be Boo To You, you know you're kids have got the habit when they play it all year round.

Mannheim & the Mouse. Reminds me of spectomagic, one of favourite parades.

Shame that the cd is not available to download

It's selling for silly prices on Amazon as well - one seller has got it listed for $99

Boo To You music is brilliant, i didn't realise how brilliant until i listened to it properly in my studio and heard all the different sounds etc used to create the true halloween feel!


Thanks guys, keep any coming. It's good to hear what reminds you of the parks and your trips...I agree with Jason Mraz too, heard that alot out there aswell as Pitbull 'Hotel Room' as soon as i returned it was being played alot out here, similar to the Black Eyed Peas 'I Gotta Feeling'. I was glad to see that our station added it to their playlist by the time i returned but that joined with a competition we were running on the air giving away a holiday to WDW didn't help me get over the Post-Orlando blues!

What a fabulous idea! I'll be your Valentine.

These would be my choices:

Magic Kingdom ~ It's Time To Remember The Magic from the Magical Moments parade which preceeded Share A Dream Come True. This is my favourite parade music (along with Jammin' In The Jungle) and I think it perfectly captures what MK is all about. Or maybe There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow from Carousel of Progress.

Epcot ~ This is a tricky one, because the Millennium Celebration soundtrack (which incorporates Reflections of Earth, We Go On, Tapestry of Nations, Promise and Celebrate the Future Hand In Hand) is probably my favourite of all Disney music, but I'd say (for daytime footage at least) I may have to go with the music from Soarin'. I also adore Canada (You're A Lifetime Journey) from O Canada and Golden Dream from the American Adventure. So much music to send shivers down the spine at Epcot.

Hollywood Studios ~ Fantasmic is hard to beat, but Raiders March (Indiana Jones Theme) also screams "Studios" to me.

Animal Kingdom ~ I love Circle of Life, but, for me, The Tree of Life Theme more properly evokes the sounds and atmosphere of the park. I defy anyone to listen to it and not be immediately transported there.

Universal Studios ~ Hmmm. Not sure about this one. I want to say that they play a version of the Universal Studios theme at the park entrance, but I could be imagining it.

Islands of Adventure ~ Has to be the main theme tune, Call To Adventure. Someone has kindly uploaded the hard-to-get soundtrack to YouTube.

As soon as I read the thread title,
"Dancin a catchy rhythm, singin a happy song" from the old DLRP parade came into my head and will NOT GO AWAY - thanks a bunch....

AAAAAAAARRRGGGHHHH how do I get rid of it......... aaarrrggggghhhhhhh...

Magic Kingdom - Wishes definately but also the music around frontierland because when we were kids we spent pretty much all our time on Splash mountain/ Thunder Mountain

I also agree with "Remember the Magic" that was like a brilliant parade song

Epcot - Soarin' its just brilliant!! but also Illuminations

MGM/DHS/whatever people are calling it these days :
Fantasmic of course but also Vera Lynns We'll Meet Again which plays outside of TOT

Animal Kingdom - i dont think i really have one for there ....oh actually Finding Nemo the Musical "Thats My DAAAAAD! I knew alll along" if you know this song then *high five* its next to "Its a small world" on annoying songs list but i still love it

As for music in general Magic 107.7 Magic fm playing Delilah and all her cheesey songs

How did i not think of this...love that song, i have to admit actually on the last day we went back to AK as it's one of our favourites and we really wanted to see this show one last time and i was holding back the tears! Perfect, you're a legend i shall try and get this now.

Keep em coming
