I had a joke for this, but out of respect for your grandmother I'll just leave that alone.
But seriously the assignment wasn't to write a new anthem but to write an attraction finale, and on that I think they understood the assignment and did a stellar job.

That is obviously a matter of opinion, as I don't think Disney needs another "second" anthem at this point for either the company or the Parks.
Wish Upon A Star is a great anthem and should continue to be used for many generations to come.

No one is complaining that Remy, or RotR, or GotG, or any new rides don't have the new "Small World". Why are the expectations for Tiana so high??

Because ‘Splash Mountain’ was a great Attraction, and one of WEDs/WDIs best themed efforts.
A classic ‘right of passage’ experience that has wonderful scenery, characters, and music.
The music especially was a real highlight of the experience, and combined with a simple yet clever visual story brought the Attraction up to a higher level.
You left the area humming a tune.
It was great on so many levels.
And my boy Tony’s creation….with some friends of his….
So the Bayou has some big shoes to fill within those hallowed swamplands and underground caves.

1. People on this side of the board don't really follow/care much about WDW as a general rule. Many have either never been to WDW, or haven't been in a long time, so the number of people that post in the DL forum AND have experienced Ratatouille or Epcot GOTG is quite low (I did Rat in Paris. Not a fan). People have complained about Rise over here, even if it hasn't happened much in this particular thread. Also, Rat in Epcot replaced nothing, Epcot GOTG replaced an attraction that was definitely flawed, and ROTR at DL didn't directly replace anything anyone cared about. Tiana, well...
2. Splash was for many a sacred cow, either because of their affinity for the ride, its lead designer, or its status as one of the most iconic Disney attractions ever. That means that TBA has big shoes to fill, and whether or not it will be able to do so is very much in doubt for many over here.

How Do You Do was my favorite song that I actually would hum while happily strolling around the park.

It’s a sweet song, (questionable life lesson aside), but I do think it’s time for a change.
I’d like to see one of these songs become the new official park anthem:
Higitus Figitus
The Forest of No Return
Trashing the camp
Canine Crunchies
Lester’s Possum Park
Pineapple Princess
Yodel-Adle-Eedle-Idle-Oo

It’s pretty clear to me that Disneys new theme song should be “Lost in the Woods.”

You’re kidding, but an 80s glamrock power ballad is exactly the energy Disneyland needs.
Lost in the Woods is the most underrated song in the Frozen canon and I’ll die on that hill.
Disney should own it's premier status and make their new anthem: "You're Welcome!"

And that is fine, still wasn’t the assignment here. If they want to create a new anthem for the Parks or the entire company let that be a separate assignment not tied to a specific attraction.

I mean, I haven't been to WDW in years either, but that wasn't the point of the post xD. Unfortunately DLR hasn't had a new ride besides MMRR, RotR and SR. So there are less "new" rides to compare to.

What is your point? not sure what you were trying to get at with your post.

I think the most underrated great, great Disney song is “The Caucus Race,” and… and… Oh my gosh, THAT would be a perfect new theme for the company!

SPOILER ALERT: Final lift-hill footage. But trust me you’ll want to see this so you’ll be less disappointed when you ride
Wow, this is worse than anything I could have imagined. Figured at the very least there would be a lot more fog, better lighting and better music here. And maybe some better dialogue than “ I’ll get you to the party.”
So the only thing to indicate we shrunk down here is a big mama odie head on a screen that replaced the vulture AA’s? Yikes. I was wrong. I’m more disappointed about the final lifthill than the finale. All the clips I saw a few days ago I was more or less mentally prepared for and/ or they matched my expectations. This is bad. Splash didn’t have a lot going on but what it did it did right. The ominous music and buildup. The vultures. This is criminal. I don’t care that they added an AA.

I 100% believe the rumor that Iger did an early walk through and told them it was boring. And I'm afraid he was 100% right.

Obvious spoilers, but a full POV of the WDW version:
