This song from Marvel'sAgatha All Alongappears several times, as various musical genres, throughout the series. This "sacred chant version" is the first time we hear the song. It feels so appropriate for a Halloween playlist.
Disney'sThe Legend of Sleepy Hollowis a Halloween favorite in my house. It's such a fun version of the story that's narrated by Bing Crosby. In October 1949, to celebrate the release of the film, Bing sang this version of "The Headless Horseman" on the Chesterfield Radio Program.
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is available on DisneyPlus as part of The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad.
September 25th is the perfect day to celebrate the life and legacy of Dolly Parton. She was a singer, songwriter, actress, businesswoman, and philanthropist. She was known as much for her over-the-top personality and look as for her kind and caring heart.
The Dollywood Foundation also named today "Give Like Dolly Day" to "encourage the world to make a difference in a child's life." Dolly founded the Imagination Library in 1995 in honor of her father, who could neither read nor write. She began giving books to children near her hometown in Tennessee, but eventually spread the program across the US as well as to Canada, the UK, Australia, and Ireland. If you'd like to know more about the program and how you can help, just visit this link to Dolly's official website.
The first song from Wildwood Sessions (Music Inspired by LAIKA'sWildwood) has arrived. The album will feature indie and alternative artists from Portland, Oregon. The songs celebrate the film and the Pacific Northwest.
Wildwood Sessions (Music Inspired by LAIKA's Wildwood) will be released on October 16th.
One of my favorite performances to watch every Independence Day is A Capitol Fourth on PBS. Featuring popular singers both past and present, Jack Everly conducting the National Symphony Orchestra, and, of course, fireworks, there's something for everyone. This year will look a little bit different. The show will air a night early on July 3rd, and the fireworks will be over George Washington's Mount Vernon instead of DC.
You can watch A Capitol Fourth on PBS at 8/7C on July 3rd. Most stations repeat the broadcast immediately following the first. It can also be watched live on YouTube.
Lin-Manuel Miranda has written a new song for Disney'slive-actionMoana. "Along the Way" is performed by Maui (Dwayne Johnson), and two Moanas: the original animated Moana (Auli'i Cravalho) and the new live-action Moana (Catherine Lagaʻaia). The result is fantastic.
Have you watched Spider-Noiryet? The series was released on Amazon Prime Video yesterday. So far, I've watched the first 4 episodes and I am loving it. It's so delightfully dark and retro, like an old gumshoe movie. And the music is pretty fantastic, too.
All 8 episodes of Marvel'sSpider-Noir are available now on Amazon Prime Video.
Pixar'sHoppersis the story of young Mabel and her extraordinary efforts to be a part of the animal kingdom and save their home. This song, "Save the Day" is the perfect theme for her journey.
The Indiana Jonesmovies are some of my favorites. I've watched them many, many times and I still love them. And the music John Williams composed for them is fantastic, especially the main theme.
All 5 Indiana Jones movies are available on DisneyPlus.
"Golden", a song from the animatedmovieKPop Demon Hunters, won the Oscar for Best Original Song last night. It's such a fun, upbeat song. I haven't watched the movie yet, which also won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature, but the kiddo is definitely a fan.
The Disney Ambient: Rain album is surprisingly calming. The songs played on piano over the sound of gently falling rain is quite lovely. This song is "Go the Distance" from Hercules.
Isn't it funny how a single song can take you back to your childhood? I loved watching The Muppet Show as a child. The Muppets were wild and crazy and you never knew quite what they'd get up to in each episode. And it was always fun to see the guest stars and the insanity they'd get pulled into. I hope the new special is the start of a new era for The Muppet Show.
There's something truly enjoyable about watching the Muppets perform. Here, Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem take on Electric Light Orchestra's "Mr. Blue Sky."
I'm really hoping this is the kind of performance that will be included in Rock 'n' Roller Coaster after the Muppet transformation.
