When our family went to Disneyworld for vacation last year, we stayed at Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort and went to one of the four parks (The Magic Kingdom, MGM Studios, Animal Kingdom, and Epcot) and one of the two water parks (Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach) every day for eight straight days. It was an absolute delight and we found that Disney is not exaggerating when they say that Disneyland is the "happiest place on earth."
Disney's staff is so amazing and talented that they can take you off-guard. Street sweepers and photographers and ticket takers seem to be every bit as much a part of the overall show as the actors in the various stage performances. But when we were at MGM Studios one day, we decided to go to see Beauty and the Beast Live. It's a fantastic performance and a great break from the heat if you happen to be there in the summertime, as we were.
But my favorite part of the show was before the show started, when a few people who appeared to be simple staff members doing final sound checks prior to the show ...
Well, I'll let you see for yourself:
Their name is "Return 2 Zero." We now have two of their CDs and a few other MP3s on our MP3 players. They're simply fantastic. I've always loved acapella music, but these guys are just the best.
Here's another set of clips of them performing at MGM Studios "Beauty and the Best Live" at Disneyworld. You must make a point of seeing them the next time you're at Disneyworld. You'll love it.
Great sound. I like "Georgia On My Mind."
ReplyDeleteAren't they great? We were sitting in the front row for Beauty and the Beast and were completely blown away by these guys. We bought one of their CDs on the way out of the park and then I purchased another one at a music store a few months later.
ReplyDeleteThey recently put out a CD of Christian music, but I have not heard anything from it yet. I'm sure it's great and I'm hoping that they are actually Christians. It's great when Christians excel at music and the other arts.
From Amazon it looks like they had a fun Christmas album, but it's been discontinued.
ReplyDeleteLydia - Here's the page from their web site where you can order CDs. It looks, from this page, as though the Christmas CD is still available.
