Illuminations Soundtrack Featured on ABC News Inauguration Coverage

I LOVE THE SYNERGY!!!

They used portions of the Illuminations soundtrack during ABC's entire coverage. When Charlie, Diane, and George would cut away to a commercial, the familiar tune (from the middle of the show, I think) would play. The instrumental portion of "We Go On/Promise" was featured several times as well.

No other network can top that. Beat that Fox News.

The Magic of Disney Music...




*By the way, I understand the network has used this same soundtrack for other specials, including past inaugurations.

Why not plop a huge Sorcerer hat over the White House?

Thank GOD!! I mean.. the parade route and even the presidential stand were dead empty. Too cold to be out there. Once you have seen one marching band, you have seen them all. They are so overrated.

I resent that.

Re: Illuminations Soundtrack Featured on ABC News Inauguration Coverage

Speaking of parades, how AWESOME would it have been if, just when everyone thought the event was over, the Parade of Dreams showstop music (sans Walt's intro) blasted over the speakers all the while hundreds of Disney characters come pouring down Pennsylvania Avenue with streamers?



There's your "Celebrate Today" plug o' the day.



Welcome to Our Family, indeed.

Re: Illuminations Soundtrack Featured on ABC News Inauguration Coverage

I actually left to do some banking while the parade was going, and when I came back, lo and behold, another marching band! But this time it seemed like Barack and Michelle were pretty much the only ones in the reviewing stand with a few Secrete Service officers. The cold wins yet again!
