Disney Parks have tons of original music that becomes iconic. From It's A Small World to One Little Spark to There's A Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow these songs build the immersive worlds of the Disney Parks.
Today we are sharing the top five Disney Parks songs initially from the international Disney Parks. We are including songs that also eventually appeared in the US Disney Parks, as long as they started internationally.
Happily Ever After
Happily Ever After is now the theme song of the hit Magic Kingdom fireworks show of the same name. But it initially appeared in the Hong Kong Disneyland show Mickey and the Wondrous Book, before it made its way stateside.
Are You Brave Enough
Last year Disneyland Paris premiered one of the best Disney Parks commercials of all time that also introduced their Halloween theme song. It is a great jazzy song that gets stuck in your head and should be used as a general Halloween theme song for the Disney Parks.
Compass of Your Heart
This song is from Sinbad's Storybook Voyage and was written by frequent Disney collaborator Alan Menken. It is simple but pleasant to the ear and perfectly fits the style of its attraction. It feels similar to Grim Grinning Ghosts and Pirate's Life in style by capturing the spirit of its ride and blending into it as an indistinguishable part of the ride.
Imagination
Imagination premiered as part of Tokyo Disneyland's Fantasmic and was a brilliant addition to the show. It actually made it to the US as the exit song of Disneyland's Fantasmic. This song feels like it has always been a part of the show and seamlessly flows into the park.
Magic In The Air
Sorry about the lack of video, but Disney has never released this song. It is the theme song of Mystic Manor in Hong Kong Disneyland, and works as a kind of alternate Grim Grinning Ghosts. It is creepy enough while still being an energetic theme song for the ride, and works well for the multilingual ride by repeating the lyrics in multiple languages.
