The chosen ones

More than anything, I'll get music requests for the Tiki Room Morning Show. On a daily basis I check my e-mail and always have some songs that people want to hear from the Walt Disney World Resort. Generally, I will add them to the next-day's show, as I've already prepped for the show that is about to go live the night before.

The requests that come in are for a variety of music that we play. Very rarely will I get a request for a song that I do not have. And if I don't have it, its just a matter of looking in the right places to get them.

On the Tiki Room Morning Show, I like to play a blend of Walt Disney World theme park music, with the occasional track from Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach, with a few tunes from the Resorts as well. Sometimes, the odd song from Disney Transportation and Downtown Disney/Pleasure Island make it to the airwaves, in an attempt to give you the best selection and experience on Sorcerer Radio.

I also like debuting a lot of new music on the show. One of my best finds which was introduced late last month on the Tiki Room Morning Show and DW:60 was Disney's Celebrate You - the instrumental version. As heard in the lobby of Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort, this is a wonderful song that has brought tears to the eyes of some Disney fans that think back to their last trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth.

There are also some popular tunes like Disney World remixes like Hilary Duff's The Tiki Room and of course, from the Italian Pavilion in Epcot, we have Nova Era, which is a comical song involving an opera singer-gone-techno. Fun stuff.

Here now are the top five songs requested on the Tiki Room Morning Show:

1. Journey into the Imagination - EPCOT
2. Tapestry of Nations - EPCOT
3. Soarin' - EPCOT
4. The Tiki Tiki Room - a remix by Hilary Duff
5. Standing in Motion - EPCOT

I hope you all have a magical weekend. I have tonight to relax, and Crystal and I will probably watch the ever-important AHL game 6 between my hometown Manitoba Moose and the rival Hershey Bears. It's being played here in our city, and our Moose are down 3 games to 2. If there is a game 7, it goes on Sunday night for all the marbles (aka The Calder Cup)...and I already have my ticket to that sold-out game! Hershey has won it 10 times in the past; the Moose have never won it before. So having said that, GO MOOSE GO!

Late on Saturday, it's back to the planning stages of Monday's Tiki Room Morning Show...which as always, goes live at 8am Eastern here on Sorcerer Radio!

Next week will also feature the return of The Animation Courtyard, with a very special Disney enthusiast, so stay tuned for details!
