it's a small world Celebrates 50 Years

By Beemerboyz803

This weekend marks the 50th anniversary of one of Disneyland's most beloved attractions. One of Walt Disney's original attractions designed for the 1964 New York World's Fair, it's a small world is a popular boat attraction at Disneyland where people aboard a boat and enter a building with animatronics dolls designed to represent the world. 

The attraction opened this weekend at the New York World's Fair 50 years ago. Two years later, Walt Disney introduced the iconic attraction to his Anaheim theme park. It was the last attraction he built before his death in December. The attraction has undergone many renovations, and is undergoing a remodel at the moment, and continues to please child after child every day at the Disney parks.

it's a small world is not only famous because it is a ride, but also because of its "infamous" song. Penned by Robert B. Sherman and Richard Sherman, "it's a small world" was written to complement the ride. To this day, it is still a debatable topic that the song is pleasing or unpleasing. 

On behalf of the Geek Central Blog, we would like to congratulate "it's a small world" on 50 wonderful years of a world of laughter, a world of tears, a world of hopes, and a world of fears.

 

It's a world of laughter,

a world of tears,
It's a world of hopes,
and a world of fears,
There's so much that we share,
now it's time we're aware
It's a small world after all,

 

It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small, small world,

 

There is just one moon
and one golden sun,
And a smile means
friendship to everyone,
Though the mountains divide,
and the oceans are wide,
It's a small world after all

 

It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small world after all,
It's a small, small world
