At the very least, it will start a bit before the lift hill (Burrows Lament area), which would allow for you to hear a good chunk of the song. But I think it could event start earlier.

If we are removing the obvious friends on the other side then I guess I can’t really think of a song for the lift. It seems like such a missed opportunity to not have the doctor in the ride. That was my favorite song in the movie. Deeper is a close second followed by going down the bayou. I really thought dig a little deeper would be the finale, in fact as I type this I have a vivd picture in my head. Let’s see what they come up with though. I am trying to refrain passing judgement on this till I see a POV and ride myself. Even though right now it seems like a weird decision.
I’m familiar with Alicia as well. Reason I asked why it may be confirmed is given the facts we have now I believe it got more likely.
Here’s my thought process Mama Odie shrinks the log down into the Laughin Place drop. Dig a little deeper is played throughout the entire Laughin Place as we find the last small critter. We finally come face to face with Odie at the top of the hill with the song still playing. Everyone in the log clapping as anticipation builds for the big drop. Not really sure why she’s throwing us down a 50ft drop unless we are becoming human sized again. Maybe she uses her magic on the log once again and us growing in size is the drop. Or it’s a simple as us leaving her house high on the hill in the movie.
EDIT: Actually come to think of it that news crew wasn’t allowed to see the Laughin Place because of “magical surprises” or something to that effect. That tracks with my theory.

I’m actually under the impression now it’s just the whole Laughin place plus the hill. So that should be enough time.

Sounds like “We’re Human Again” is playing during LP. That would be a lot of Dig a little Deeper if we re hearing it for the entirety of laughing place all the way up the lift hill.

Dig a little deeper is a little bit of a long song so that’s why I thought that.
As for “When We’re Human” it’s a fine song but an odd choice if true. Are we not already human? Is it because she shrunk us down? Kinda confused by this one such a weird choice at least looking at it from the limited information we do have.

Not if we’ve been shrunk down into a frogs. Also it’s very upbeat and follows Gonna take your there nicely.

Hmm now that’s a good point I hadn’t considered we get turned into frogs. That’s interesting and makes more sense. I thought she merely shrunk us down to be critter size. If this is true I wonder how they show the shrinking/changing into frogs effect. Maybe a screen on the way down or some of that bayou magic mist stuff they were talking about?

Nobody has specifically said frogs but it makes sense to me. That would seem like a good spot to have a frog tie in considering the source material. Yeah LP are the scenes rumored to be the most screen heavy. I remember hearing about mist as well.

If @Drew the Disney Dude is correct about Dig a Little Deeper in the lift hill then we know this inaccurate. I’d also be shocked if they didn’t play almost there in the attraction.

Before that post from Splash Archives, I hadn’t heard anything about WWH being featured in the ride, but it kinda makes sense? Tiana, Louis, and Naveen are the three PatF characters who will be in the bayou, and those are the characters and setting for that song in the film.
I was under the impression DALD would play for the entire Laughin Place segment through the lift hill, but that does feel rather long, so that section could very well be split between two songs.

It could also make sense why there is a 50ft plunge. It’s maybe because we are getting bigger from being frogs.
Just had a thought about a possible transformation scene. Maybe it’s like the scene in Ariel’s Undersea Adventure where she is getting her human legs.
EDIT: It was always weird the distinct lack of frogs in the Princess and the Frog ride. So this would be a way to remedy it be a sequel and let us relive the movie so to speak. They can have their cake and eat it to.

It makes sense if we are frogs as @mickEblu has said. Any other way not sure that it makes sense but would have to see. Could be see weird Odie magic or something.
Dig a little deeper (great abbreviation by the way) is a longer song and would build anticipation for the drop. It could really go both ways. Like I said before, I’m pretty sure that Splash Archives track listing is inaccurate if @Drew the Disney Dude is correct. It could really go either way. They could also just repeat the song in the finale. If they played it though for the entire Laughin Place and hill then that maybe too much.

One thing I hadn't considered regarding the shrinking rumor potentially being accurate, but this inspirational artwork could make a lot more sense in that context-
Granted I don't actually know if any variant of this scene would appear in the final ride. But it provides the opportunity to create some larger than life frog figures (perhaps closer in size to the Brer Frog figures from Splash Mtn), and even scale up the fireflies into proper figures instead of being otherwise relegated to tiny dots of light. So it would make sense.
Incidentally, I should mention that prior to the shrinking rumors, Splash Archive claimed that the scene depicted in this piece of art would be located in the bottom level of the Laughing Place (and they would be reusing the boat prop that was occupied by a dog figure in DL's Splash)-
If Alicia's claims about the shrinking are correct however (and i'll reiterate that she is no longer alone in this claim), this scene wouldn't really fit there anymore since it depicts normal sized characters. So it would make more sense for it to be on the upper levels. People were originally theorizing that it would be located in the place where Brer Bear was suspended by a rope trap at DL. That is to say, IF this scene even makes it in the ride at all (I also still wonder if the two versions of the ride will have substantially different scenes). But given the mixed up claims being reported, I don't know for sure who will end up being right.

I get this is concept art and is exaggerated something I just thought of looking at this art is that the whole room is flooded. It’s not like splash where there is supposed to be a mountain on both sides of you and flooring for the characters to stand on. This is a bayou surrounded by well…water. Wonder if they would try and illustrate that in some way. They probably just did this for the art, but something interesting.
As for the Tiana scene it only makes sense to be where “How do you do” was at least in my opinion.

There are a couple of scenes in WDW's Splash that had "flooded" areas. A bit at the beginning where the fishing geese were, then later where Brer Gator and Frog are fishing. And then the large flooded cavern in the lowest level of the Laughing Place. The Riverboat Finale too of course, but it's a given that this isn't where these scenes would go. The Laughing Place cavern in particular would be a fairly fitting candidate for that art of the frogs and fireflies. Especially if we shrink down. I think it would be quite feasible to create something similar to that inspiration artwork down there. But i'm just speculating here. Again, Archive claimed that this area was where Tiana/Naveen in the boat would be located, whereas Alicia Stella's claims effectively contradict that. Remains to be seen who is correct.
DL's Splash had more flooded areas than WDW. I agree that the Tiana scene in the boat made the most sense in How Do You Do. I always just assumed it would be somewhere around there. But that's just me speculating and agreeing with the logic behind everyone else's speculation. I really don't know where this scene would be located, or if it's even still going to be in the ride at all. This is the exact location that many people suspected it would go in at DL at least-
The scene structure is quite a bit different at WDW though. This particular scene is further along and on the opposite side at WDW. And it's on dry land, not flooded.

And that's why Mission BO doesn't work for me. TOT was designed to be scary and the party atmosphere doesn't match what our bodies are programmed to feel.
Drops are scary. That's the thrill. Splash was designed to have that drop be scary. Trying to force it not to be is a mistake to me.

There’s a separate thread for discussion and criticism. This is the more factual and construction updates thread. There’s room for both, and some people find the construction phase interesting.

This isn’t what the @The Mom said yesterday. According to her clarification, relevant criticism is perfectly fine here:

My take on the lift - if anyone is like me, whether the story elicits fear or excitement, I spend the whole ride pretty much just knowing there is a giant drop at the end.
I scare myself just fine.

I was shocked at how well Mission: Breakout worked. I wanted to hate it since I’m obviously a ToT fan, but it was so much fun. So is Cosmic Rewind. I guess GotG lends itself to fun thrill rides.
