Don't blame the new animation. It doesn't have this tripe of a soundtrack and horribly... I don't know what to call it... storyboarding? Cut-and-paste GIFing? Decharmification?... that the shorts have. They could have put classic Mickey in with clips that go forward and backward and it would have been just as bad.

Here's a critique of the 'music'...

Thin, nasally, auto-tuned feces.

The Spice Girls should sue for cribbing the tune of "Tell me what you want, what your really, really want."

And the guy saying, "All my fellas is ready" and the girls saying, "All my ladies are wi' me", besides being bad grammar and rhyming, is so.... unwoke.

Really, Disney, you need a guy to round up the guys and a gal to round up the gals? Are we in some Ancient Near Eastern culture where the men and women have to dance on the opposites sides of the dance floor? Is this a Junior High prom? We all just can't dance as a group of people without this unneeded division?

Yeah, I know it's not a big thing, but, <checking watch>, it's almost the third decade of the 21st century.

Other moronic lyrics:

Know the selfie game strong ‘cause the lights is flashin'
I guess it's not a good time unless you're taking selfies. Grammar.

Right, I’m singing on key ‘cause it’s open to everybody (Hey!)
You're singing on key because of the autotune. Also, if it wasn't open to everyone, does that mean you wouldn't be singing on key?

Leave the drama outside, there’s a party in here
I got a feelin’!
Maybe it’s the love in the air
I mean I’ve been around the world
Just to find it in here
First, what? Second, what? So... no drama and going to find love. At a big everyone-join-in-dance-party with your family there party? Did they think that this song was going to be played at a singles bar?

I got the DJ spinnin’ and it’s fillin’ the room
If it’s me and you chillin’ it’s a trip to the moon
Well, it rhymes properly. But who uses the metaphor of traveling to the moon anymore to signify ecstasy? Sure, in past generations, one could be 'over the moon' since going to the moon was exotic fantasy. But in the Space Age... going to the moon is rather mundane, if you excuse the irony of that phrase.

Let me break down the rhyme scheme in this section:
To the east, yeah
Rock it to the west, yeah
Celebrate, yeah
Party with the best, yeah
Everybody getcha ears on!
It's a good, good, good, good time

That's A B C B D E. 🙄


This is like it was written by a committee of old white men trying to sound hip.

Bring back MISI.
Here's the full lyrics in all their glory, so y'all can practice singing along five times a day in the MK...

[Intro]
Yeah! Yo!

[Verse 1]
Welcome to the party, it's the time o' the year (Yeah!)
All our friends invited so we startin' to cheer (Yeah!)
Step inside the room, watch the night get active
Know the selfie game strong ‘cause the lights is flashin'
All my fellas is ready
All my ladies are wi' me
I’m lookin’ dapper for the party
And I’m walkin’ in pretty
I got the DJ spinnin’ and it’s fillin’ the room
If it’s me and you chillin’ it’s a trip to the moon
(Ha!)

[Pre-Chorus]
We ready to party (Ready to party)
We won't be late (We won't be late)
Let's get it started 'cause we just can't wait (We can't wait)
If you're excited (You're excited)
Lemme hear you say (Lemme hear you)
M-I-C-K-E-Y
M-O-U-S-E

[Chorus]
(Hey!)
Come on, everybody, getcha ears on!
It's a good, good, good, good time
Oh yeah, we're gonna dance all night
It's a good, good, good, good time
To the east, yeah
Rock it to the west, yeah
Celebrate, yeah
Party with the best, yeah
Everybody getcha ears on!
It's a good, good, good, good time

[Verse 2]
(Yeah!)
It’s a party, it’s a party, it’s a party
Right, I’m singing on key ‘cause it’s open to everybody (Hey!)
It’s a party, it’s a party, it’s a party
And I know I don’t need anybody to come and stop me
I got a feelin’!
We throw our hands in the air
Leave the drama outside, there’s a party in here
I got a feelin’!
Maybe it’s the love in the air
I mean I’ve been around the world
Just to find it in here

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ha!)
We ready to party (Ready to party)
We won't be late (We won't be late)
Let's get it started 'cause we just can't wait (We can't wait)
If you're excited (You're excited)
Lemme hear you say (Lemme hear you)
M-I-N-N-I-E
M-O-U-S-E

[Chorus]
(Hey!)
Come on, everybody, getcha ears on!
It's a good, good, good, good time
Oh yeah, we're gonna dance all night
It's a good, good, good, good time
To the east, yeah
Rock it to the west, yeah
Celebrate, yeah
Party with the best, yeah
Everybody getcha ears on!
It's a good, good, good, good time

[Outro]
Oh yeah, we’re gonna dance all night
It’s a good, good, good, good time!

I never minded the look of the Mickey shorts, but coupled with this music it makes me feel like barfing.

What? No Star Wars? I'd expect at least the cantina band or this.

>>The water screens on the Rivers of America will serve as another viewing area for Mickey’s Mix Magic after Fantasmic returns from its seasonal rehabilitation, which runs from Monday, Jan. 21 until March.

Fireworks will be added to the Mickey’s Mix Magic projection show on select nights, which is expected to be on busy holidays and weekends.

“We created this as a non-fireworks show and then added fireworks to it,” said Steven Davison, executive creative director for parades and spectaculars at Disney parks. “Some nights there are fireworks and it’s kind of crazy. Some nights it’s a big dance party.”

The Get Your Ears On celebration continues at the Tomorrowland Terrace with a nightly dance party featuring Disney characters dancing to popular Disney songs.<<
