Is there an actual list of the entrance music out there? I've always wanted to hunt all the tracks down. It's a great loop.

As for the Starway, I don't have a problem with it - though I can admit that it's certainly due for an update. My girlfriend haaaaates it, though. I've attempted to come up with a playlist of the stuff I can remember on it because I love to annoy her by playing it in the car.  :lol:  Am I missing anything?

- Access Hollywood theme

- Themes from Seinfeld, Friends, and Law & Order

- "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow"

- "The Entertainer"

- "Mamma Mia"

- "Everybody Needs Somebody to Love"

- "I Will Always Love You"

- "Lose Yourself"

music of the movie's like the jaw's theme with pyscho, back to the future and jurassic park from my head. and also the song from 8 mile for the starway.
 
John Williams is Hollywood!

I know the main entrance does switch a "beginning of day" and "end of day" mix at the main entrance.  I have heard Backdraft and 1942 at the main entrance.  Do they play Dragonheart as well?
 
I know that the simpsons theme, and transformers the ride 3d part in the entrance music is from the ride. Kong i think is from the movie. I miss the older one that had jaws. wish they added the new things and kept the older ones so it would be a longer loop
 
Gosh...that song. THAT SONG. Gosh, I never thought a theme park song would get more annoying than it's a small world. I was wrong. Almost every recent tour guide i've had plays it for a few seconds and then turns it off.

Would love to have lots of EPIC music, both original and movie scores, even if those attractions are not in the park.  I remember the theme from the 1972 film The Cowboys with music by John Williams.  Both a great Western theme and an epic movie score.  Waterworld was also used a lot in the early days of the MCA website.  Both nice one that really made the place feel epic.  Although I'm a believer in using the loop as an overature to your attractions, I could do without Simpsons, Shrek, Despicable Me, Curious George,

Funny how much Disney tried to emulate the Universal entrance experience with their music loop in 1989.  They also use a lot of music from their subsidiaries in all the parks.
