ok heres one for ya.....

what non-disney song reminds you of disney when you hear on radio.

i.e. when i was high school back in 1986 my grandparents took me and brother to wdw for 2 weeks and at the time a couple of popular songs at the time were played at least 20 times a day and we heard them alot during our stay- not that i really love the songs(actually they were kinda lame) but when i hear them to this day i always think of an awsome 2 week trip to my favorite place with my family .

Can you feel the love tonight- from Lion King. OK. So Lion King is kinda Disney, but the first time I was going to Disney, that was on the radio on my way to the airport. Every time I hear that song I want to go to see the Mouse !

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. We must have heard that song a million times driving to WDW in March 1992 when it was out for Wayne's World. That was the first trip where I stayed on property. We stayed at Dixie Landings(POR) and to this day I always stay on property and the song always reminds me of there. :)

I definantly agree and anything by Bob marley reminds me of Florida in general not specifically Disney but just Florida, sunny days, and relaxing vacation time.

"Here's your Sign" by Bill Engval and "Me" by Toby Keith. They are not heard over in the UK, but they were songs I picked up on when over there.

when i was in 11th grade, my family and i drove down to disney (from michigan). i was in a car with my aunt and uncle, and i brought along my beatles one cd. i feel bad for the relations, because i probably played that cd--on the car stereo--3 or 4 times a day. needless to say, when i hear anything from beatles one, i think of disney... :D

Back At One by Brian McKnight.
When I was at Disneyland in LA about 2 years ago, they had a firework show (i forgot what it was called) and in the end, they started spraying fake "snow" things (they really looked like real snow!) in the air and people started to slow dance to this song or something like that.
 
Songs that I hear on the radio a lot while visiting Disney World remind me of Disney. From this past trip "Cold" by Crossfade and "Gasolina" from I-dunno-who were playing a lot so now they remind me of Disney World. One very prominent Disney trigger song for me is "In the End" by Linkin Park. It's weird because they don't seem to really go with Disney, like they aren't very happy-go-lucky pop that one usually associates with Disney. hmm.... It's funny when I ride in a car with someone who hasn't caught the 'Disney bug.' When one of those songs starts playing on the radio, I sometimes tell that person "That song reminds me of Disney." This is usually followed by some strange looks. They just don't understand! lol

On The Road Again, because my mom and I always either played that song or sang it together when we would get in the car to go on a vacation anywhere, and most of our vacations were to WDW :) Also there is this one song from Genesis I don't know the name of it but it has a really different sound to it that is very similar to the Main Street Electrical Parade music. I don't hear the song often but whenever I do it reminds me of Disney

i'd have to say "Back In Time" by Huey Lewis and the News. when we were driving down on one trip i remember hearing that song just as were driving on I-4. also the fact that we use to live in orlando in the 80s, so anything by gloria estefan and stuff like that strikes a chord with me :)

Whenever I hear Led Zeppelin's "Dancing Days," I think of summers working at WDW - "Disney Days are here again, as the summer evenings grow . . . "
