Hey does anyone know what the song is called in this video please? Was this version recorded for the show?

The song if from Tokyo Disneyland's Huli Huli Ohana Bash

Don't you just love those instrumental segments? The track works really well and suits the event, but I also liked that they trialled music from Princess and the Frog too. That would've made more sense and fit the story of the show better... but this is waaaaay more fun and upbeat

Quote from: "Kristof"The soundtrack has been altered slightly; the laugh and applause tracks have been removed.

Any news on when the full show music will be released on cd? Last year's It's Party Time with Mickey took some time to come fully available on album, hopefully Disney Showtime Spectacular will be released sooner.

They have such a strong soundtrack. It'd be great on a full CD. Saying that, it's surprising how strange it sounds without the characters :S

Tokyo likes to release DVDs of its shows. As a bonus, they also have a 'learn the choreography' segment. I'm surprised that DLRP didn't do something similar for It's Party Time. An enhanced CD of the show perhaps. Something the kids could dance around for hours at. I know of lots of families that complain the kids demand the music to be played again and again. I'm sure it'd keep them busy

I'm sure this has already been posted but I couldn't find it, so apologies... How long is the show? About 20 minutes?

I never cheched my watch, but that sounds about right.

Thanks Aurora!

You can say I'm negative, but what you can't say is that this show is good, great or whatever. This show is the result of this:

- "Well, guys, we must create a new show, any ideas?"
- "Yeah, the thing is to make a big big show"
- "(Everybody) Ohhhhhhhhh, a big show"
- "Can you tell us how to make a big show?"
- "Oh, well, it's easy... Mmm... Ummm... We need one million performers on stage"
- "Wow, that is a great idea, Mike"
- "So, ladies and gentlemen, we've finished"

And then, Disney Showtime Spectacular was born. There's no storyline, no musical sense... It's the example of what you don't have to do with Disney characters, Disney music, and Disney parks. Before the beginning of the show, I think they have to announce:

"Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to the place where nightmares come true. For your own safety, we would like to remind you that this show may be frightening to children and some adults. If you do not want to waste your time, please, run away. Thank you and enjoy the show."

It's ironic, but excuse me, I can't stand these errors. Why don't they simply copy? I think "Dream Along with Mickey and Friends" is a great show.

Sorry if my English is not totally correct. Correct me in order to improve.

p.s I know its magic but how do their mouths move?

They call them "moving heads" and I think it could be the same technology as audioanimatronics.

I have a question. Why are there always 10 dancers ariving/leaving for the HUB-show while there are just 8 of them dancing on stage?

As far as I know and have heard are those 2 spares when another dancer gets injured during the show.

Do they also have spares for when a character gets injured?
