Mickey Mouse Club - Aaron Neville


I just came across the new that Wayne Allwine, the voice of Mickey Mouse, has passed away at the age of 62 due to complications with diabetes.

Allwine picked up the job of voicing the iconic mouse for the New Mickey Mouse Club in 1977. The torch was official passed from Jimmy MacDonald, who voiced Mickey Mouse from 1947-1977, to Wayne Allwine for 1983's Mickey's Christmas Carol.

Nearly every time you have heard Mickey in the last 32 years has been Allwine, including movies, TV shows, video games and the Disney parks! Allwine married Russi Taylor, the current voice of Minnie Mouse in 1991.

I am sharing this special cover of the Mickey Mouse March end theme by AARON NEVILLE off the album STAY AWAKE, which serves as a fitting goodbye to Wayne Allwine.

Never Smile at a Crocodile - Captain Bogg and Salty


To celebrate ten glorious years of nautical nonsense, CAPTIAN BOGG AND SALTY released their fourth album, EMPHATICAL PIRATICAL a month ago.

The disc offers the same piratical goodies that fans have come to know and love over the years. Remember this cover of Part of Your World from their previous album?

The band was nice enough to send along this cover of Never Smile at a Crocodile which was recorded for their newest release. I hope you all enjoy it! ...And buy the album!

Reflection - Mickey B.


It's very fitting that a person with the name Mickey would cover a Disney song. And that is exactly the name of the person who brings us today's cover!

MICKEY B. is a Eurobeat artist who has been making music over the last decade. He has provided many tracks for the various EUROBEAT DISNEY albums over the years with this friends. This version of Mulan's Reflection can be found on EUROBEAT DISNEY 2 which was released in 2001.

The Eurobeat circle is a small one and often the artists work together to make the tracks perfect. Mickey B. has collaborated with other Eurobeat artists such as Domino, Matt Land, A-Beat-C and Spiders From Mars.

Even if you are not a fan of Eurobeat, you have to admit that this techno version of Reflection is better than any of the Christina Aguilera remixes out there.

Miracles from Molecules - Chris Calabrese


A big part of Disneyland history is the Adventure Thru Inner Space. A Tomorrowland ride that shrunk the audience and took them on a tour of the world from the perspective of someone who is smaller than an atom. The attraction opened in 1967 as part of the 'New Tomorrowland' and was one of the first rides to feature the new Omnimover system created by Disney. Any of the attractions today still use this system, including the Haunted Mansion.

Adventure Thru Inner Space closed in 1985 to make room for Star Tours which opened two years later and currently serves thousands every day.

The whole ride was narrated by legendary voice actor Paul Frees and a musical number, written by the Sherman Brothers called Miracles from Molecules, was featured at the beginning and at the end of the ride.

Ragtime pianist and Main Street performer CHRIS CALABRESE provides us with a nice ragtime version of Miracles from Molecules on his album RAGTIME AT THE MAGICAL KINGDOMS.

Oogie Boogie's Song - Tiger Army


It has been 13 years that TIGER ARMY has making music, but after four studio albums and many roster changes, the band is still touring the world with their psychobilly punk rock style.

Last year, Tiger Army, contributed their version of Oogie Boogie's Song for the Nightmare Before Christmas tribute album NIGHTMARE REVISITED. Although the song wasn't selected to be part of the track list, it was included as a bonus track on iTunes.
