The music from the Toy Story game for Xbox is running in my head.... probably because Hubby's playing it right now, and has for the past four hours. The boys haven't minded, especially LB, who loves video games and loves anything Toy Story.
Who writes the music for all this? Who performs it? And why am I not that person?
When I was in high school, our band took a trip to Disney World. We performed in the Main Street parade and competed in cool competitions (okay, cool to a band geek!). But you know what my favorite part was? Getting the chance to perform the background music for the movie Aladdin. It was the parade scene for Prince Ali Ababah (however you spell that), and our director would watch the silent movie and conduct us at just the right tempo to sync up with the movie. One of the coolest experiences EVER.
Why don't I do that for a living?? Oh, right- I move all the time. And I would need, like, way more talent.
But given the right circumstances, I would totally do that. Either perform the background music for a movie (think John Williams or Danny Elfman) or video game... or anything else that needs music.
Um, yeah, my inner geek is showing. So what? :)

I REMEMBER THAT! So right about one of the most amazing experiences! And we did "A Whole New World" too...I remember getting goosebumps when we saw the playback...and that was total sight reading by the group. Timberlane Music kicks ASS!
that is SO COOL! I know exactly which scene you are referring to and it's one of my favorite musical moments in all the disney movies. you're no geek - that rocks.
