    Realizing that my status about a song quickly got buried in the depths of the newsfeed, I figured “why not create a thread where we can discuss our favorite aspects of tracks in the jukebox?”

    I’ll start:
    Epcot – American Adventure Pavilion – Dogfight and Newsreel
    I enjoy the homage to a long-gone Disney ride! Did you hear it?!

    I have a few more details from songs that I’m happy to share, but I’ll open the floor to others.

    For some reason, I enjoy how on some of the tracks you can hear people on the attractions. At the end of Soarin’ now I always find myself saying “That was cool, you alright mom?” because that’s what the person in the track says at the end :p

    In “An Evening at Epcot”, I love the part when the torches are blown out. It gives me goosebumps when I’m there in person AND when I hear it on the track. It’s just perfect!

    Honestly, the Haunted Mansion tracks are my favorite. It’s my favorite ride and I can recite the entire spiel right along with the track.

    @kcboston some tracks really lend themselves to that atmospheric experience — especially the rides! I’ll have to think if any come to my mind… probably Paint the Night.
    @imarebelpilot I find that quite interesting — and dedicated!


    @connie96
    I know exactly what you’re saying. How cool that, in that moment, we’re connecting with millennia of humans! Gives me chills just thinking about it!

    But my favorite moment of exuberance in a Disney track? The Spectromagic herald trumpets. We don’t have them yet on D-COT (I need to get off my duff and get them to @Steve!), but here’s a YouTube vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VS0ru82gfg&t=750s. I never get of listening to them!

    @PA_timekeeper, what ride are you refering to? I listened to it and didn’t get it. :|

    @StupidJudy. LOL
    Magic Kingdom – Tomorrowland – If You Had Wings ~ Eastern Airlines

    What a subtle reference tho! Not that I had ever experienced If You Had Wings — just enjoyed the music.

    But I was legit heartbroken that Delta Dreamflight was taken out. I don’t know why, but I found that ride to be a hoot! And the “prepare for supersonic flight” tunnel was just the coolest thing. (When I was eight. Still is, btw.)

    @PA_timekeeper, going to give it another listen and see if I catch it!

    I did get to ride If you had wings, sometime between 1980-84! Yes, that tunnel was super cool at the time!!

    I am not sure if I checked out Dreamflight during our 1995 visit, don’t remember!

    I’m not ashamed to say I come close to tearing up listening to audio that brings back memories of my first time there.

    Today’s find is in
    Tokyo Disneyland – Fantasyland – Pooh’s Hunny Hunt Queue Loop at about 42:10.

    It’s a little Leonard Bernstein! Along with “The Wonderful Thing about Tiggers” is a rhythmic homage to his classic “America” from West Side Story. (https://youtu.be/Qy6wo2wpT2k?t=2m38s)
