New 'it's a small world' Finale

One of the most iconic songs in the Disney Parks is "it's a small world". The song, written by Richard and Robert Sherman, made it's debut in 1964 at the New York World's Fair. Shortly before his passing, Richard wrote one final verse:

Mother earth unites us in heart and mind

And the love we give makes us humankind

Through our vast wondrous land

When we stand hand in hand

It’s a small world after all.

This new verse will be added to the finale scene of the ride at both Disneyland and Disney World beginning tomorrow, July 17th.
