So we just got back from a 8 day trip to the world and we were on the bus and since they have the music now playing on the bus based on were your going, I heard an intresting song playing and I realized it was the music from the godfather and thought that it was very weird. I remebered someone saying something about wanting to add a famous trilogy to the GMR and was maybe stretching it but kind of wondered if this may be one of the movies they were wanting to add... Any ideas or anyone else here this...

The new music loops on the busses features things both related and Totally unrelated to Disney other than the theme. For instance, the Pop Century bus system plays "The Jetsons" and "The Beverely Hillbillies". It's just music, no real relation to Disney other than that. :lol:

I know that the MGM loop included the wretched theme song from All in the Family, "Those were the days." Sometimes the Epcot cast shuttle would key into the MGM loop instead of the Epcot one *shudders*. Nothing like Edith Bunker screetching out a song to put one in a "magical" mood.

I actually really like the loops. THe one to POR is quite relaxing, especially at night. I don't think they are any indicator, though; merely new ways to sort of set the tone for your destination.

Sometimes the bus drivers manually override the music loops...
Wednesday I rode from MGM to the TTC and the bus driver entered the destination info for Carribean Beach and went into the manual override to change the route signs so they still said Tran/Tckt Center...I sat right behind her and she said she wanted to hear the music loop from that route...This didn't bother me...What makes me mad is when the bus drivers mute the system so they can hear themselves talk over the PA the whole way to the destination.

The music we heard was the instrumental theme to Titanic... very unrelated to disney!
I am sorry, I tried to stop myself, but I just couldn't. Her name was Edith not Edna, and if you are old enough to remember the show you would know she was a real sweetheart both as a character and an actress.

Ha! My bad. (Thanks Wikipedia) I admit that I've never seen the show...but I still really hate that song.

Ya those are kinda cool, there are sets of cards for each of the transportation systems: Busses, boats, and Monorails.

the last thing Disney needs is to team up with an old Mouse Club member that burned out at the age of 20 at least IMO

I've been on the Disney-MGM bus before and it sounded like they were playing the Harry Potter theme, which I thought was odd.

They also play Harry's Wondrous World (the name of the HP theme) by the Sorcerer's Hat the the park.
