Wizards of Waverly Place | Magic Music Video – Selena Gomez 🎶 | Disney Channel UK

Even people who don’t listen to much Western music have probably at least heard the name Selena Gomez, and her song “Magic.” It was a hit in Japan as well, so some might recognize it just from the opening line.

It served as the theme song for a 2007 Disney Channel series and is very popular among children in the U.S.

As the title “Magic” suggests, its fantasy elements—imagining what could be done if magic existed—are part of its charm, and the fun, gentle lyrics offer a touch of positivity.
