I hope @marni1971 has talked to some people and will get the original BGM playing throughout the parks again for the 40th!

This. Just do what they did in previous years but include the Horizons loop at Mission Space and WoM at Test Track.I hope @marni1971 has talked to some people and will get the original BGM playing throughout the parks again for the 40th!

Mission Space doesn't even play it's own signature song anymore (RIP Destiny).
Motion played but Horizons was loaded but didn’t switch over. UoE was of course lost - at the time.

Ah, I thought what happened with Horizons happened with WoM too. Still incredible they managed to lose the original UoE loop. I'm sure they won't switch over the GotG loop to EEA since it's the hot new toy in the park.
Anyways, hopefully it goes well this year. My bar of expectations is on the ground. Music loops, new SSE show, and fireworks tag are all I'm expecting. The rest is up to the fans to make it actually fun.

I would be happy with even just small touches like running Impressions de France all day, they act like its going to hurt them so much to take away from their precious sing along. 
surely it cant cost much for one day to show the parks original.

"What many 'die hard' fans don't realize is that it does cost us SO much! Not monetarily, but for our health! Every time anyone at Imagineering brings up the past, Josh loads another one in the chamber! Poor Kaitlyn got shot last week for humming New Horizons!" - Zach (probably)I would be happy with even just small touches like running Impressions de France all day, they act like its going to hurt them so much to take away from their precious sing along.
Does ”at the time” mean it’s no longer lost?? I know it’s one of your holy grails.

If we could get the OG le cellier loop instead of the current stupid jazz music that’d be just swell

Since EPCOT is the park we we celebrate the Magic of possibility, maybe they will use their heads and play Impressions earlier in the day.I would be happy with even just small touches like running Impressions de France all day, they act like its going to hurt them so much to take away from their precious sing along.
Thank the maker they don't...The CM's dubbed it "The Screaming Banshee song" they played a 57 second loop that plays over and over after how loud it got from the singer so they shut it off permanently due to this...you'll find out when it hits the 2:20 mark....

Can we get the Wonders of Life loop to play near the pavilion? Because I need that 80s jazz goodness in the parks again!

As much as it pains me to suggest anything for the monstrosity... This could actually be a nice feature on Genie (not Genie+) if they didn't redo the loop. Be able to play background music and old loops while you are in each location on your device. Nothing would beat actually having it switch. But, it could be a nice way for people who want to grab nostalgia year round. For very, very minimal cost on Disney's side. I know for me, the music of EPCOT is a HUGE part of my love for what used to exist.

I wonder if they'll stick a giant "40" roundel on Spaceship Earth like they did at Magic Kingdom's castle. Because otherwise, you'd never know there was a notable anniversary going on.

All they need to do is build a giant “4” next to SSE like the wand. SSE can act as the zero.
WondersOfLife
Blink, blink. Breathe, breathe. Day in, day out.
If they don't have Listen to the Land playing somewhere, I'll be mad.
On a side note, I like to show off this little music video I made with a few of my theater students whenever I can.

I dont think they are going to do much of anything, now American Adventure is closing and won't be open, the park is just getting so bad with an emphasis solely on drinking and closed attractions, temporary or not.
