  • Since this is the seventh anniversary of the attacks of September 11, 2001, in remembrance of the feelings of pride that we all had as Americans, this video was created. We should never forget our freedoms and liberties and the right to achieve the American Dream.
    This is a tribute to those aspirations we all have, for our country, and our people.
    The song is called Golden Dream, which is currently used for The American Adventure at Walt Disney Worlds Epcot.
    Song was composed by Bob Moline.
    NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED!!!

    It would be interesting to see who can list all of the historical figures that are put on the screen during the end of the song. I can name most of them, but many I can't. Who will be the first to list them all!
    Good Luck!

    Every time I come back to this, it re-unlocks a core memory. As a British citizen, I feel privileged to have been to the United States many-a-time over the 26 years I’ve been around. Our history connects us both as great nations. Much love to the USA.

      Now, we have among us those who are openly trying to tear our country down, in the name of "freedom" and "equality." All they're bringing is pain and anguish to us. And many of us are pushing back. Let's keep this free country alive by realizing that our freedoms are not a birthright. They're a gift our Founding Fathers gave us to preserve!

    Wow, you're pretty good...and I think pretty accurate actually. Most of his stuff was done for Epcot, but he was originally hired by Disney to write a song called, "It could only happen at Disneyland" which aired on both radio and tv in California long, long ago. It's been a really long time since I've been to Disneyland in Anaheim, but I do remember some of his music being played outside of Space Mountain (instrumentally only) while you waited in line.

    This I believe has since been moved from EPCOT(Which, by the way, stands for Experimental Potential Community Of Tomorrow[Which is loosely named]) to Liberty Square in the Magic Kingdom. I believe they also added a part at the end when they added Barack Obama to it that has a younger chorus singing "America,
    America, spread your golden wings. Sail on freedom's wind across the skyyyyyy...."
    And on the way out the door, on the ramp downwards from the theater, it says those exact words in golden.

    There are seriously videos on youtube for everything, isn't there? No, from what I can remember, the music wasn't playing over the speakers once you got inside the building, it was playing outside of the Space Mountain attraction somewhat close to the Starcade. Memory is definitely fuzzy on that though. I think the last time I was there Captain EO was still being shown if that tells you anything. :)
