| When visiting Disneyland
California you'll discover that the rides are only half the
entertainment. In addition to great food and fun, Disneyland
features live shows with talented performers from the Disney cast.
On any given day you'll see
several bands perform, and watch some dancers, actors in costume the
culmination of a complete day with a parade after or around sunset.
From earlier days when Big
Band concerts featured Buddie Rich and a variety of jazz all stars,
to today's talents that come directly out of Disney's central
casting, enjoy watching performances such as Mary Poppins act seen
in a video that includes a song, Jolly Holiday. In the Mary Poppins
movie, Jolly Holiday was performed by Dick Van Dyke and Julie
Andrews. The song was written by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B.
Sherman. Below are the lyrics to this song.
Performing on Main Street with
Sleeping Beauty Castle seen in the background, guests stop to watch
as crowds pass by. This is where the horse drawn steetcar, the
horseless carriage and the omnibus all make a stop in their
back-and-forth journey down the thoroughfare.
When visiting Disneyland, not
only will you have ample opportunities to see the Disney characters
for meet & greet photo sessions, you'll also have lots of musical
entertainment to watch. Be sure grab a brochure at the
entrance to Disneyland to keep abreast of the day's activities and
entertainment featured on a colored map.
Jolly Holiday
Ain't it a glorious day?
Right as a mornin' in May
I feel like I could fly
'Ave you ever seen
The grass so green?
Or a bluer sky?
Oh, it's a jolly holiday
With Mary
Mary makes your 'eart so light
When the day is gray
And ordinary
Mary makes the sun shine bright!
Oh 'appiness is bloomin'
All around 'er
The daffoldils are smilin'
At the dove
When Mary 'olds your 'and
You feel so grand
Your 'eart starts beatin'
Like a big brass band
Oh, it's a jolly holiday with Mary
No wonder that it's Mary that we love!
Now then what'd be nice
We'll start with raspberry ice
And then some cakes and tea
Order what you will
There'll be no bill
It's complimentary
Oh, it's a jolly holiday
With you, Bert
Gentlemen like you are few
Though your just a diamond
In the rough, Bert
Underneath your blood is blue!
You'd never think of pressing
Your advantage
For bearance is the hallmark
Of your creed
A lady needn't fear
When you are near
Your sweet gentility is crystal clear!
Oh, it's a jolly holiday with you, Bert
A jolly, jolly holiday with you!
