A New AngleTōkyō Dizunīrando Beimakkusu
There are six songs played on the popular attraction “The Happy Ride with Baymax,” each available in three versions: with dialogue, without dialogue, and instrumental.
They’re available for streaming and on CD.
“A New Angle” is also a catchy track, and its lyrics—suggesting new possibilities like “If you spin around and look, you’ll discover a new way of seeing”—are really cool! If you were to choreograph a dance to this song, adding lots of jumps and occasionally swinging your arms wide to the left and right could make it really fun.
It’s a perfect recommendation for younger elementary students, too.
And it’s also great as background music to create a lively mood during recreation time!
Happy RideTōkyō Dizunīrando Beimakkusu
Have you seen the movie Big Hero 6? It’s a story that weaves in Eastern elements, which is rare for a Disney film.
You might think it’s just for kids, but it also has suspense, so I recommend it to anyone who hasn’t seen it yet.
The Baymax-themed Disneyland attraction “The Happy Ride with Baymax” is also very popular.
While the ride is operating, one of six songs plays, including “Happy Song” and “One Sweet Ride.” Every track is upbeat and sure to make you happy.
The CD is also available for purchase, so I hope you’ll listen to all the songs first!

This is an upbeat dance song used in the Baymax’s Happy Ride attraction at Tokyo Disneyland.
With the name “Baymax” sung to the rhythm, the song features a lively, friendly melody.
The choreography is very simple—just moving your arms up and down is enough to have fun—so anyone from kids to adults can join in easily.
Dancing in a group naturally brings out smiles and fills the venue with a cheerful atmosphere.
It’s also recommended as a crowd-pleaser for school sports days and community events.
If you wish for a miracle…JUJU
Have you heard of the movie “Soul” with the tagline, “What if there were a place where you could decide who you’d become?” What’s groundbreaking about this film is that, even though it’s a Disney movie, the protagonist is a 45-year-old man.
That alone makes you want to watch it, doesn’t it? The theme song, JUJU’s “If You Wish for a Miracle…,” is a superb ballad that perfectly matches the film’s story.
It’s ideal for moving scenes in kindergartens or schools, so it’s definitely a song worth remembering.
It’ll bring you to tears!
Baroque HoedownJean Jacques Perrey
This is a quintessential electronic music piece from the 1960s, notable for its distinctive Moog synthesizer tones.
Blending Baroque elements with a country-style rhythm, the unique composition features a bright, upbeat melody that lingers in the mind.
Included on the duo Jean-Jacques Perrey and Gershon Kingsley’s 1967 album “Kaleidoscopic Vibrations: Electronic Pop Music From Way Out,” the work was adopted in June 1972 as the theme for Disneyland’s Main Street Electrical Parade and has been beloved by many ever since.
It’s a perfect choice for festive, celebratory occasions—such as parade entries at sports days or award ceremonies—guaranteed to fill the venue with a lively, cheerful atmosphere.
Someday My Prince Will ComeBill Evans Trio
Known as an insert song from the film Snow White, this piece is also popular as a jazz standard.
It’s included on the Bill Evans Trio’s 1960 album Portrait in Jazz, where Evans’s delicate piano touch and distinctive harmonic progressions are especially captivating.
The lyrics, which express Snow White’s pure feelings of first love, are interpreted with the sophistication unique to jazz, resonating deeply with listeners.
Ranked 19th on the American Film Institute’s list of the 100 greatest songs in film history, its appeal is widely recognized.
It’s a perfect track for boosting concentration or unwinding.
Why not tackle your work or studies while savoring its relaxed, elegant atmosphere?

The song “Transformation” from Brother Bear is performed by a Bulgarian female choir with very melodic and beautiful vocals.
It’s the perfect music for a film where the main character overcomes various hardships and learns the importance of bears.
Even when played as background music, its beautiful melody is moving.
