Favorite Music/Sounds in Disneyland

[jl_marines1]

OK, so the topics of favorite land in Disneyland, favorite ride, favorite smell, etc have been discussed. But, music/sounds play such a HUGE roll in the Disneyland experience (thank you, thank you, thank you, to VF Radio for bringing us this music when we can't be at Disneyland). So, what is everyone's favorite music/sounds in Disneyland? I'll have to say mine would be New Orleans Square and Main Street. I listen to VF Radio at work and it makes my day 1000% better as would anything having to do with Disneyland!!!! :biggrin:

[HiddenMickey]

Ah where to begin.. I love walking past the Matterhorn and hearing the screams of the riders, combined with the echoing abominable snowman growl, and the water splashing.. And I love walking down the Frontierland Trail and hearing the sounds of BTMR.. Then there's always something musical going on in NOS.. I like those 4 guys who are out there singing old Motown songs and stuff -- anyone know their name?

[ttztotdca50]

Yeah, VF Radio's awesome. I love the sound of the tickets at the Main gate. I love the clicking sound of the turnstiles. I love the Soarin' exit music, along with the "launch waiting" part of California Screamin'. I love the clacking sound of anti-rollbacks on Splash Mountain. I love the "Remain seated please..." voice clip of the Matterhorn. I love "All I Want" music from Splash Mountain's exit. I love the sound of the engines shutting off at the end of the old Space Mountain soundtrack on the old 50th page on VF. I love the "whiirrrr-bleep" sound of Rocket Rods.

I'll post more when I remember.

[tnicnat]

I love main street - cause I know most of the songs (a lot of musicals) I tend to sing along - I then get a skip in my step, embarrases the kids and I love it! LOL

[Grim Grinning Ghost]

The entry gate Loop, Mainstreat music, Rod Miller (or any of the other pianists), the Blue Brass Bayou Band RULES!!!! I LOVE the morse code message in NOS trainstation. any announcment from the Disneyland railraod. I mean the List is absolutely ENDLESS!

I love on main st. when you walk back in the side alley where the lockers are and you can hear the dentist up in the dentist office drilling on someone, or the piano teacher teaching a young child and slaps their hand when they mess up! LOL :smile: it's funny. Also I like to hear the telegraph at the NOS train station b/c it's saying Walt's opening day speech!

[Fantasmic17]

My favorite sounds are the sounds of the music from the rides and the sounds of the people just having a great time.

[leokensakuchan]

my favorite sound is the mark twain whistle. everytime i hear the whistle i close my eyes and take in the enviorment.

[damxcnsxcn]

woah all those things are my favorite. but esp. the cricket churps and banjo playing in POTC.

[Casey]

I love hearing "Oh Susanna" in PotC. And the music piping through Main Street (as well as the marching band/rod, etc), the clock ticking on Small World. The railround sound. The sound of The Blue Bayou (cutlery clinking)...

[Disneyland_Wolf]

The music in the IJA quene, The light generator outside in the digs of the Indy quene, the sound of crickets and frogs in the Blue Bayou, POTC theme music, Grim Grinning Ghosts, Star Tours. Hearing People scream when they plunge into the drop in Splash Mountain. Main street USA music and the random Disney musics in the Ticket booths area.

[111702]

My favorite sound is, I can't beleive not a lot of people like this sound, the jingle of the park tickets going through the scanner at the front gate! Sounds like magic!:wink:


I also like the Space Mountain atmosphere music, and the eerie silence that surrounds the Haunted Mansion! Lastly, the Indiana Jones Queue music and sound effects, people taliking excitedly in the lines, POTC Bayou sounds, and finally, people screaming their head off on Splash Mountain (and ToT)!:icon_excl

[GreenLantern13]

My favorite sound is, I can't beleive not a lot of people like this sound, the jingle of the park tickets going through the scanner at the front gate! Sounds like magic!:wink:

I do the whistle when I go through it =D Sometimes I hit it exactly and it's awesome =D

[SilentMickey]

Seeing as how I'm a smoker (I know its a bad habbit and bad for my health)and the only place where I'll smoke in the park is the smoking area by the "jumping" fish pond thing (well ventilated fairly free of children at least it was and better than the one by the matterhorn) It's cool because last few times I went BTMR was still shut down this part of the park was pretty much empty We could hear all the wild life sound effects and such. Its just amazing how Every corner of DL has audio of some sort playing.
and I love the Indy and Star Tours Music by John Williams.

[disneylover]

My favorite sound is, I can't beleive not a lot of people like this sound, the jingle of the park tickets going through the scanner at the front gate! Sounds like magic!:wink:

I also love this sound:tongue: My other favorites are the Matterhorn(screams and abominable snowman) and Splash(screams) and BTMR-hang on to them hats and glasses cause this here's the wildest ride in the wilderness! I LOVED the old Space music too! Also, the sound of the jungle cruise engine.

[Indyjohn]

My favorite Music and Sound is the Indiana Jones Adventure because I am a huge fan of both the ride and the movies.

[Space Rangerlvl999]

HM
Fantasmic!

Electrical Parade

[Chatterbug]

Thanks for all the memories. I love all the sounds too. All the music/audio has some memories attached to it for me. Like in It's a small world when my uncle Howard ( a very loud marching band leader ) sang at the top of his lungs along with the music.:icon_lol: Through the whole ride It seemed like everyone started singing with him. He is that kind of guy. At the time I was a teenager, I acted with my cousins like I was embarrassed. We had so much fun.

Not that I think people should sing along in rides for some reason my uncle seemed to make it work. I love you uncle Howard!

Oh almost forgot hmm my favorite would be the crickets, banjo and sound of ? maybe an aligator jumping in to the swampy waters in POTC. Nice for both ride and restraurant.

[disney_fanatic]

hmm I like the music from main street, ya know where they combine all of the music from different movies/ride.

[laffertyangus]

I love the sound of the cricket churps and the banjo playing in POTC. I also love any sound matterhorn related and i love the tea cups song

[TimmyII]

My favorite sounds in Disneyland are those made by the Disneyland Railroad. I love the sound of the train arriving, whistling, chugging along. It's awesome. I also love the announcements at the train station......I'm so glad they included it in the fireworks show!

[disneylandaway]

anything on the VF radio

[twinkletoes]

I honestly can say I don't have a real favorite. I'm reading all of your responses to this thread, and I'm thinking," yeah, that's a great one...no wait..that's a great one too...oh my gosh, I forgot about that one!" I find it amazing how certain sounds and smells can instantly take you to a different place or time. I love all the disney sounds, the music and people, they're all just wonderful!!

[Executioner]

I really like the music in NOS and Frontierland. I love the smell of POTC and the Jungle Cruise.

[Ratty12345]

The most relaxing music has to be when you are walking down Main Street USA, hearing happy and cheery music.

[diznyfreak]

The sound of my ticket being accepted at the turnstiles!!:p I love all the sights, sounds, and atmospheres in the park.

[acgonzales]

I have so many favorite atmosphere sounds from Disneyland. Lets see...the sound of the train coming into depot, The talking Skull from POTC, the ballroom part of Haunted Mansion and the entire foyer and stretching room part, the sound of the Mark Twain from a distance, the sound of the swing music playing on the outside part of the Indiana Jones Ride, and sounds of the Matterhorn.

My favorite smells of DLR is the smell of CHURROS!!!!!!! The smell of the fog and water from POTC, and the smell of the Candy Palace.

[camaro87488]

I have so many:

1. The sound of the BTMR Whistle
2. Pirates Bayou
3. Disneyland Railroad
4. IJA Generator & Sound of wind blowing through the tunnel

[Executioner]

...the sound of the Mark Twain from a distance, the sound of the swing music playing on the outside part of the Indiana Jones Ride...

Good choices. I loved staying at the DL Hotel and waking up to hear the Mark Twain. Nothing like it. The Indy queue music is great stuff. It's great backround music.

[Zip~a~dee~doo~dah]

The sound they use when they swipe your ticket at the turnstiles, the little bird-like 'woo hoo'.

[namara87]

Sounds....
*The music in the queue for Matterhorn
*The distant sound of fireworks from a hotel room
*The distant sound of screams from Splash Mountain...weird, but it always sticks out to me
*The music of New Orleans Square
*The sound of the Space Mountain rockets through the walls of the queue

[pixiedreams4ever]

Peter pan!! you can fly

[WendyDarling1955]

I love soo many sounds I would be naming them for days! BUt some of my favorites would have to be the sound your ticket makes as you go through the turnstilies, the sound of the Disneyland Railroad, the music on Main st., the Tarzan Treehouse music in Adventureland, the old time music that plays in the queue of the Jungle Cruise. The queue sound of IJA, all the amazing sounds in POTC, the screams of Splash Mountain, the buzzing bee's at the end of MAOWTP, the ticking of the clock from IASW, the screams and splashes from the Matterhorn, the sound of the autopia cars, the excitment in childrens voices, BLAB music, Star Tours queue, the chirping of birds and the wistling breeze flowing through Frontierland Trail to Fantasyland, the sound of the Mark Twain, NOS Music, Fantasyland Music, the echoing sound at the end of AIW, and of course my favorite Village Haus Music!!!!

[CLASSIC HM]

The sounds of the abominable snowman in the Matterhorn

[jennifer]

I like the sound of the telegraph ticking away at the New Orleans train station. I love the music in Pirates of the Carribean as well as the banjo playing. I love the man talking in the Haunted Mansion exspeically the elevator part.

[Pinocchio85]

Did you know that the telegraph is ticking Walt's Opening Day speech :)

[Shrunkenheadned]

Id have to say,

Condor Flats Loop
Anything in New Orleans Square
Paradise Pier Loop
And best of all 1st thing in the morning when you walk down Main Street.

[SoCalAl]

I like the sound of the telegraph ticking away at the New Orleans train station. I love the music in Pirates of the Carribean as well as the banjo playing. I love the man talking in the Haunted Mansion exspeically the elevator part.

i love sounds - I guess I'm a radio type of person. Windowstotheworld.com podcast does these game where they record sounds as they walk and you are to guess where they end up.

there are alot of interesting "sounds" or audiotracks that are not songs at Disneyland. I guess this could be a new thread.

[dreamscometrue555]

the screams of splash mountain and (sort of ) haunted mansion!

[debijeanm]

My favorite sounds are memories, now. TOP of the list was the Swisskapolka from the Swiss Family Robinson Tree House. Big Al in the Country Bear Jamboree. "Joy to the World" from America Sings (and for that matter, "It's a Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow" from the Carousel of Progress.) Remember the voice that announced everything throughout the park? The last time I heard that wonderful "Disneyland" voice was when it introduced my sons' performance as part of Magic Music Days, 1996. What a thrill! It's a different voice, now.

Now? I guess the "Very Merry Unbirthday" calliope music from the teacups.

[debijeanm]

I didn't know that the telegraph was tapping out WD's welcome! How delightful!

[astroZOMBIE]

When I'm away from Disneyland I love listening to the Main Street Electrical Parade on my iPod. Great tune!

[gusgus]

love the Matterhorn music, every sound inside HM, the screaming coming from Splash as you are walking by, and love,love love the music from the Tea Cups.

[dctrdez]

my favorite sound is the mark twain whistle. everytime i hear the whistle i close my eyes and take in the enviorment.

I second that. There's something about that whistle that let's you know you're somewhere special.

Also:
The Jungle Cruise boat engine accelerating
The clackity clack of the DL-Railroad
The bell on the Railroad engines
The Indiana Jones queue "creepy" music
The esplanade music
The whoosh and honk of the monorail
The organ on King Arthur's Carousel
The way the train goes silent and the different ambient sound creeps in at different station stops on the DL-Railroad

and of course...

THE HORN ON THE PARKING LOT TRAMS!!! *Driver all clear* BEEP BEEP!

I love the Swisskapolka and the teacup music! I want the teacup music for the ringtone on my phone!:p

[debijeanm]

Or is it, "A very HAPPY unbirthday"? Help me out, experts.

[Ezra]

Or is it, "A very HAPPY unbirthday"? Help me out, experts. It's A Very MERRY Unbirthday I have the old LP with The Camarata Orchestra and Chorus featuring Darlene Gillespie.
