"it's a small world" 1964-65 World's Fair Improved audio mix

- This is my audio mix of the 1964-65 World's Fair version of the ride, a complete flow-through of the 1964-65 World's Fair version of the attraction complete with the isolated vocals (used in 1965 only) at the beginning and end of the attraction. Here, I have used almost every single image I've found on the Internet (as well as my 1964 record book), and synced them to the full original source audio for each and every country, basically recreating the full original ride. Most of this audio is pretty much exactly the same as the audio used in Disneyland's version today (as well as Walt Disney World, Tokyo and Hong Kong Disneyland). There were several changes to the Disneyland versions audio in the 1970's and 80's, followed by the complete removal of this soundtrack between 1993 and 2002, but thankfully in 2003 they brought back most of this classic soundtrack and much of it continues to play to this day, although since 2009 it's been accompanied by the awful, IMO, Disney character audio. Some of the set pieces have also remained pretty consistent over the years, but many countries have seen some changes over the years as well. Some of the sections, mainly Europe and South America, were arranged differently than they have been since the ride was moved to Disneyland. There was also no South Pacific, which wasn't added until the ride moved to Disneyland in 1966, and the Rainforest was located in the also appropriate South America room instead of the South Pacific. Some of the other countries were also repainted and expanded when the ride was removed to Disneyland in 1966, making this a very similar, but also different ride to the one we know today. As some of you may know, it's a small world is my favorite Disney theme park attraction (and what most of my videos are about) and I really hope to do it justice through this and my other audio mix. I hope you enjoy, and old version of this video (now unlisted) is linked below.

"it's a small world" 60th Anniversary
Debuted 1964 at the New York World's Fair
1964-2024
Happy 60th to what I consider the greatest attraction ever! I will have a few things to commemorate over the next few months.
I’m not sure why I’m surprised it’s basically the Disneyland version
I HAVE THE ONLY VINTAGE 33 rpm LP VINYL ALBUM COPY OF THIS ATTRACTION SOUNDTRACK WITH BOOK VERSION ON EBAY NOW! IF YOU WERE THERE AS A KID LIKE ME YOU KNOW IT WAS MAGICAL! IT IS STILL A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL THESE YEARS.
Although I sadly wasn't alive back then, from all of the pictures, videos, and other documentation I've seen of the original it's a small world, I completely agree about it being so amazing and magical, and in my opinion the best attraction Disney ever built. I'm very glad that at least I've ridden the also fantastic current version, but even I agree with many other fans that the Disney characters and America room take away from what Walt and his imagineers intended for the original ride and they need to go, so it can be perfect again like it was many years ago. But no matter what happens, it's still a small world after all!
Do you still have it? If yes how much?
Waiting for 60 Years Merchandise until 2026
Does anyone have an idea if the small world building is still set up in Corona Park in New York or was it dismantled along with the rest of the fair?
I'm pretty sure it was demoilished
@@benjaminroberson1924 I had just found images before the demolition on the internet, it's a shame it's gone
Is this really what it would’ve sounded like if you where to go on the ride back in the day?
Correct
@@benjaminroberson1924 wow i wish time travel was possible so i can travel back in time to 1964 to see this amazing attraction
Awesome recreation!
I feel like if Disney were to ever open a park in New York at some point in the future, they should make the layout of their small world ride identical to the world’s fair version seen here. Just to pay a tribute to the original that was in New York way back in the 60’s.
Not a bad idea! Although I imagine they'd redo the exterior to look more in line with other small worlds
@@CacoQueen And add the South Pacific and United States rooms
They should not open one in NYC at all, period!
@@GoodfellasNYC New York City would be too small for one.
@SF91 That, and the neighborhood where the world's fair occurred is crime infested and a total DUMP
Wonderful work!
can you if you had wings and magic journeys magic kingdom version
I'll definitely try to do If you had wings sometime, since I am a little more familiar with that ride and have always enjoyed it. However, it'll probably be at least a couple months before I'm able to make and upload it. Also, I don't think I'm going to be able to do Magic Journeys anytime soon, if ever. Although I love much of classic EPCOT Center (including the original ride Journey into Imagination), I've never been too interested in Magic Journeys, and don't think I'd be able to familiarize myself with it at the moment. Maybe in the distant future, but right now I simply have too many other things planned for at least the next several months if not closer to the next year.
Where is the finale laughing African children?
@@gamingpc3475 I now know that they actually didn't have the laughing Nigerians in the original 1964-65 finale, as although they were in Africa right from the start, they weren't part of the finale until the ride was moved to Disneyland in 1966.
IYHW is a very underrated ride. I mean, yes, the whole ride was out of place in tomorrowland, being a literal advertisement for something that already exists and is implemented on a large-scale with civilian access to it, but it had AC and the song was catchy. It was also the WDW version of Adventure Thru Inner Space? Kinda wacky, if you ask me.
@@x-fun3149 Yes I agree with everything you said. As you said it was out of place in Tomorrowland, but the song was very catchy (almost as catchy as IASW, IMO), and overall it was a very well executed and somewhat technologically advanced ride. The speedroom in particular was absolutely amazing and unlike anything else at the time.

Cool
were did you get these rare images
Many sources, including Daveland, Bill Cotter's collection, the official 1964 record book, other people's finds from Discord, and several other sites.
Nice
Do mr toads wild ride 1955 in Minecraft
I'll definitely think about reinstalling the game so I can do that and at least a couple other things, such as the 1955 Fantasyland as a whole (to the best of my ability) you suggested earlier, as well as IASW, at least the 1966 DL version.
@@benjaminroberson1924 yeah because know one have done it
For some reason the South Seas room just never worked for me. I think it's just because everything blends together. Anyway, I really like the World's Fair version of "iasw!" Meet me under the Tower of the Four Winds!
I respect your opinion on the South Seas, and do agree that the World's Fair version was fantastic. Definitely one of the better versions IMO.
All the rooms have the countries blended together
@@b00se28 yeah but the music for each country sounds distinct in other rooms. Take Spain and Italy, for example. Not to mention, the South Seas has little of the song's melody other than the vocals.
