Browse piano sheets by Misc Soundtrack on Zen Virtual Piano. Misc Soundtrack is a mixed set of songs tied to the screen and the park, from a seventeenth-century English broadside to a Disney parade. The earliest surviving version of “Lavender’s Blue” is in a broadside printed in England between 1672 and 1679 under the name “Diddle Diddle, or The Kind Country Lovers,” which says it is to be sung to the tune of “Lavender Green,” implying that a tune by that name already existed. The song has as many as thirty verses, with many variations of each. A broadside that names the tune it is to be sung to shows the melody and the words already counted as separate things. A version titled “Lavender Blue (Dilly Dilly)” was featured in the 1948 Walt Disney film So Dear to My Heart, where it was sung by Burl Ives. It was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1949 and credited to Eliot Daniel for the music and Larry Morey for the lyrics, and its appearance in the film sparked a revival of interest in the song. A version credited to two writers for a 1948 film, though the song itself is traced to a seventeenth-century broadside, shows how a title can carry both an old song and a new version. A centuries-old song competing in a category for original songs sits oddly, and the nomination was for this version alone. “Part of Your World” was written by the lyricist Howard Ashman and the composer Alan Menken for Disney’s animated feature film The Little Mermaid (1989) and is performed by the American actress and singer Jodi Benson as Ariel, a mermaid princess. It is a power ballad in which the main character expresses her strong desire to become human, and its lyrics use placeholder names in place of several human-related terms that would be unfamiliar to a mermaid. Placeholder names for things a mermaid would not know suggest a song in which what the singer lacks words for is part of what she wants. The Main Street Electrical Parade is a nighttime parade that first premiered at Disneyland in 1972 and has since become the longest running parade in Disney history, performing at Disney parks worldwide. It features floats and live performers covered in over 600,000 electronically controlled LED lights, with a synchronized soundtrack built around a signature theme, “Baroque Hoedown” by Perrey and Kingsley, arranged to complement each float. With over 600,000 lights and a soundtrack arranged float by float, the music becomes one of the parade’s working parts.
