The Disney Resort commercial song. A popular jingle from the commercial.

The Twelve Days of Christmas arr. Frederic Austin

In Japan the song is known by the title “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” and it is a Christmas song frequently used at Tokyo Disneyland.

Although its title is less well known than those of other Christmas songs, it can be said to be just as familiar to Japanese listeners as many other tunes.

Even if you don’t recognize the song by its English title, I think many people will remember the rhythm when they see the Japanese title “Hīragi Kazarō” (Deck the Halls).

The image of the “fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la” lyrics is also very strong.

You can hear it at Tokyo Disneyland in the Country Bear Theater as well.

It’s the familiar tune played during the Electrical Parade, a nighttime parade of lights.

Since the Electrical Parade itself has been running for many years, the music has become well-known, but few people know that the original title of the piece is “Baroque Hoedown.”

This is also a classic Christmas song, and it’s played at the Country Bear Theater along with “Deck the Halls.” It might be fun to sing together as a family, but the lyrics are actually quite romantic, so the impression can vary depending on who sings it.

That nuance is strongly reflected in the arrangements found in different countries as well, and many of them have a mature, relaxed feel.

This is a piece of music that was used in Disney’s Fantillusion!, a past parade at Tokyo Disneyland.

The song is truly popular and is still praised for its brilliance among Disney fans, so much so that calls for its revival frequently arise.
