It hasn't been the same since September 30, 2019.That's because nearly everything that was great about it has been destroyed.

For those interested, I made a Spotify playlist of both pre-show loops. Some songs are missing simply because they aren't available in the USA on Spotify, at least. I found them in other places and they're forever at home on my laptop, haha. I know you can find them on Apple Music or YouTube, though.
They really knocked the ROE music out of the park. We were walking through World Showcase today and I found myself starting to hum some of the pre show music.Hearing all that great preshow music makes me nostalgic.
I can literally see the reflections of the touch flames dancing on the surface of the lagoon while listening to these tracks….
Man I miss this Show.

It was pure perfection in every way and they just need to bring the thing back and update it.
Other Disney Guests could care less.
Agreed. The show was awful. Only reason why it went. If the show was great. Noone would care about the barges in the lagoon as a “sacrifice” for a great show. And honestly. As bad as they were the outrage to me was overblown. Yes i know thats a hot take but again if the show was good it would have been well worth it.People keep saying the hardware in the lagoon was the main reason Harmonious was hated. Only the die-hard Epcot fans cared about the hardware. Other Disney Guests could care less. The main fact was the show sucked. It wasn't keeping Guests in the restaurants till 9 either. You couldn't see it from half the viewing locations, it was just a clip show with limited fireworks. It was a see one time and never have to see it again kind of show.
I will never understand this subset of Disney fans who have such low standards for things like show and sight lines. It’s like running back to the same ex because they buys you flowers every Friday despite being an absolute poor person.Agreed. The show was awful. Only reason why it went. If the show was great.

I actually didn’t think the show was THAT awful. There were segments that weren’t as good as others for sure but there were sections I began to like the more I saw it anyways. I almost wonder if the 4 taco barges could have survived and used the screens some during the day if they just got rid of the crazy middle portal (or been able to move it in and out of the lagoon).Agreed.

Everyone who's been posting in the past few months are people I'm sure who have never had a chance to weigh in on the old show or their hopes or dreads for the new show before.I see it's the same rant over and over again.
I just hope will have a good preshow loop as great as the Illuminations versions...I miss hearing Busindre Reel when it echoed through World Showcase as the evening got dark and the torches turned on....
Yeah, false lolOnly the die-hard Epcot fans cared about the hardware. Other Disney Guests could care less.
When they showed It on ABC that was one of the most Rose Colored pieces of vomit I have ever seen..They were never this hyped for Illuminations which was far superior.....Along With Wishes.. To be the better shows in the parks..It was a very good show if viewed from between the two gift shops (problem one) and started really slow I see the show in four parts:
1. The bad part: The show goes all in on activating every water feature but takes forever to start with fireworks. I liked the mashup of Hercules and Moana just wished it had more boom, and has zero connection to Epcot. the Aladdin segment was nice but short, and then we got to Jungle Book which was terrible and did not fit in this park. Jungle Book was written by a British Colonialist it’s not Indian! Also not connected to Epcot
2. The good part: The show takes a big step up in quality during the Mulan segment and gets better with the Lion King (my second favorite segment) but France is a bit of a let down, BatB is unneeded and I would have liked different Hunback songs.
3. The great part: The quick Brave section is a nice pause and appropriately sets the stage for the best segment in the show, Coco. It’s perfect. PatF lasts a bit too long and gets repetitive for my liking.
4. The finale/post show: I loved the finale, and the post show. Those peripheral flares wow. It’s just I wish it tied the show together but without introducing the concept of world harmony at the beginning feels tacked on.
Fixed your postBring backHarmoniousIlluminations withless invasivemovable tech/barges!!!
The only problem was when they added the crap about The place where dreams come true in 2006 through the end of it's run.There was absolutely nothing like hearing the music start with the torches going and then this:
We’re gathered here tonight, around the fire — as people of all lands have gathered for thousands and thousands of years before us — to share the light, and to share a story. An amazing story as old as time itself, but still being written. And though each of us has our own individual stories to tell, a true adventure emerges when we bring them all together as one. We hope you enjoy our story tonight: Reflections of Earth
And then the torches went out and the show started. It was pure perfection in every way and they just need to bring the thing back and update it.
