Using Disney Music in Videos

I'm editing some footage from a Disney visit 23 years ago. I'd like to add a music soundtrack to it using music from the parks. I can't find any way to license the music from Disney. In my experience, using popular songs in a YouTube video usually (but not always) results in the video staying up, attribution being given to the artist, and any revenue generated by the video going to the artist. That's fine with me because I'm only looking to share my video with family. But sometimes the audio gets removed and I've even heard of some users getting into trouble. Does anyone have any experience posting videos with Disney songs in their videos? Also, does anyone know how Facebook handles similar issues.

And just to stress, I'm not trying to violate any of Disney's copyrights. I'd love to have a mutually agreeable way to handle this.
 
Generally its only if you monetize your video that companies/artists care because you'd be making money from their music without paying for the rights to use i t.
Keep in unmonetized and it shouldn't be an issue.
I believe you can also send it to select people that you want to be able to show it to instead of it being public.
