Disney should never get rid of any of their rides. I'm all for adding new rides but part of the Disney experience includes the nostalgia that comes along with the rides and attractions.
Just back from my WDW trip, and It's too bad this song isn't a part of the ride anymore... It would be good of them to play it right at the end of the ride.
And btw, Journey into Imagination sucks now!!! Bring my '80s Epcot Center back!
@destroyahdes you know i have some faith in some of the future Disney imaginears of my generation...and thats saying alot because i usually have faith in no one! lol But hopefully they want to keep the past alive without being 'out of date' :)
I worked on the boat from 1988-1991. A 25 page spiel and 5 days to memorize was our training. I hated when they changed the song. I always liked this one. Even though I heard it everyday 40 hours a week LOL. "Welcome to a boat cruise across the land and through time"
@wkruskie Hi there. It's nice to hear from someone that worked there. It's very possible I was one of your guests when I was a teenager then. It's sad it's all automated now and that position is gone. As you see this ride and song has made quite an impact on our lives. I love gourds now and am trying to grow some of the giants I saw in the green house. I still dream of working there as a scientist.
@Disneydanny Well as a matter of fact, his first work for disney was a song that he wrote for a disneyland commercial, on which he sang. You can listen to it here: /watch?v=belpiHCpJOE Enjoy!
It's a shame that when they did the renovations to the Land, they did NOT bring this song back....typical Disney. All they di was take out the driver/commentator
Amazing song and ride!! It remains me when I was a little child this was one of my favorite rides, this and Horizons!!! Where can I get this song? The last time I went to Disney I tried to find a soundtrack with all the classic Disney ride songs but couldnt find it. I would really appreciate if you could help me by telling me where I can get this song. Thanks
Thank you. Yes this is easily my favorite and I miss the old rides they've changed. I'm so glad The Land has had the least change. I'll send you a PM.
I was there a couple months back and for the first time noticed the fountain in the middle was gone...something I remembered from many trips past. I agree, The Land is one of the few pretty much untouched attractions...which is good!
I just came back from EPCOT 2 days ago and when i asked one of the cast members what they were doing to the ride, they said they were replacing the boats. But the strangest thing is that I heard this song on the magic express comming back.
One more point. I hear they are making some changes to the ride. I believe it is closed right now for some sort of renovation. Do we dare hope they will bring back the Living With The Land Song?
No prob. Oh no! It is? Oh gosh I hope they don't mess it up. Other than losing Living With the Land it's the only Pavilion that had been left alone. I hope they bring it back and don't mess things up.
Last time I went there I was so distraught that you can not get a Nestle chocolate chip cookie anywhere. That was the best part of going to the land pavilion. The Nestle Chocolate Chip cookie. I told my family I would go home and throw out all of my Nestle cookie dough and never buy it again. This is a great song though. We did the behind the scenes tour of the land and that was very interesting.
I LOVE the Behind the "SeedS" tour. I went on it in 2004 and once they gave me those pumpkin seeds I became a gardener. Hence all my garden videos now. Sadly what they don't tell you is Pumpkins don't grow in Florida when they aren't in a dome. :(
This is where the changes All started. Not the land but the Kitchen Kabaret... Turned into Food Rock, which was garbage compared to the original. sell outs. From Hershey to Nestle:(
That's one of the few original things I never saw. I never saw Kitchen Kabaret so I have no feeling for it. But it's sad it's gone. It's sad I haven't been to Soarin' yet either and I hear it's good. Someone obsessed with birds and flying should try it. I don't know why I can't get to that side of the Land Exhibits. Weird.
My mistake. It went from Kraft to Nestle.... Soarin is awesome! I waited 55 minutes to ride it and it was well worth it. As i see it Epcot has enough money and land to add rides. Not to keep replacing:(
kitchen kabaret was awesome!!! they dont have the balloons or anything in there anymore no fountain nothing just like one of there hotel lobby restraunts its so sad glad they have the land ride still. i live 20 min away we should all go to epcot and reminisc haha
i could never work there cause im pretty covered in tattoos but i have an annual pass epcot man from spaceship earth to the nightly fireworks that place is magic just wish it wasnt sooooo hot
"Listening to the land" is certainly what we all should do... We are fortunate around these parts to get the full network of seasons. It's a great song! And a great park! (We visited only once, several years ago, but we have fond memories of it.)
Lets listen to the land we all love, natures plan will shine above, listen to the laaaand, listen to the land.
