Nominate your favourite song original to the Disney Theme Parks here!
Iâm expecting this list to be EPCOT heavy as there are many original songs from EPCOT - there was even a whole vinyl album in the 80s (I need to show my copy off), purely of original EPCOT songs, such as One Little Spark, Itâs Fun to Be Free, Golden Dream, Magic Journeys, Listen To the Land, Veggie Veggie Fruit Fruit, and there have been more since such as Celebrate the Future Hand In Hand, Destiny, We Go On and others.
Rules
The song has to have been specifically created for the parks - it can be from a parade, a fireworks show, an Epcot Pavilion, it just canât have existed before, and yes, this does mean no Itâs A Small World and no Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow as they came from the 1964 Worldâs Fair
To clarify, âDisney Parksâ in this instance includes any of the 12 theme parks, 2 water parks, and 6 resorts worldwide. Disney Springs, Disney Village, Disneytown, Downtown Disney and the 51 hotels at those resorts worldwide are not included. Aulani, Vero Beach, and Hilton Head are also not included, and neither is ESPN Wide World of Sports
The song doesnât need to have lyrics, so feel free to nominate pieces of music too
No nominating the same song twice. Thatâs cheating
Nominations will be open until January 20th.
Had a few nominations that were not original theme park songs.
To make a few clarifications - much of the old music in Adventureland, most of the loops in EPCOT - including the loops in The Land, The Seas, the former Innoventions, the former Wonders of Life, the Connections Cafe/Connections Eatery/Creations Shop loop, the current entrance/World Celebration loop, the loops of the World Showcase Pavilions, the current Animal Kingdom Oasis/Tree of Life loop, the Africa loops, the Asia loops, the DinoLand USA loops - none of those are original to the parks. Yes, you can buy them on iTunes or stream them on Spotify or Tidal or whatever. Itâs fun, I recommend doing that.
There was a bit of a delay between quarterfinals and semifinals, so nominations are still open and will remain open until the finals end.
Bringing this blog back so please submit!
