So I know that Disney has their own music stars and stuff, which is fine and all, but wouldn't it be cool if they branched out? For example, they already teamed up with Square Enix to make the Kingdom Hearts game franchise which became a huge success.
Why not try to collaborate with other types of media? It wouldn't hurt them in any way seeing as they seem to have a rather brilliant way of knowing what will be successful and what won't. Take this as an example; the band Nightwish based a lot of the songs on their first three albums off of various Disney movies and stories - they even named a 9 minute song after Fantasmic and it basically references everything Disney. I know that Disney is not the biggest fan of metal, but they're symphonic metal, with female vocals, and until recently they very rarely used even minor scales, so they definitely fit the happy mood of the parks (and the keyboardist now sorta has a jack sparrow look).
Here is an example of one of their songs, "Fantasmic," set to a lot of clips from Disney movies, the part from around 3:15 to 5:00 will probably appeal to almost everyone on here seeing as it is the slow part of the song and easiest to get in to

Well I know they'll probably never get involved in a genre such as this, but still, it would be pretty cool and at least I think it'd be cool to get a whole album like this but about Disney stuff.
Plus, think how awesome it would be to have this performed live as a part of Fantasmic with the characters and all the special effects used for the show.
