Much of this song is spoken, not sung, with the chorus only coming in at the very end. This works well, as the widow’s speaking voice paired with sad instrumentals is able to convey the small details of her memories, digging deeper into the hearts of viewers as they wait for the inevitable parting. That, combined with Tod’s initial excitement at going for a drive that descends into confusion, then shock and sadness, is absolutely heart-wrenching to watch. Esmerelda thinks only of others with her prayer, claiming that she can “get by” on her own. This generous petition is contrasted with people coming into the cathedral and praying for money, fame, and love. The selflessness she displays is emotional to watch because it’s rarely seen.
The pressure was on do something — anything, really — to turn DCA around. The initial perception of that theme radio flyer wagon park is that it lacked kid appeal. That one-and-a-third-acre “land” opened for business on October 7, 2002.
On the West Coast … Well, the Imagineers originally toyed with the idea of pulling down the Mailboomer and then building the show building for DCA’s version of “Toy Story Midway Mania! But it was quickly determined that that site had too small a footprint for the ride-thru shooting gallery ride that WDI now wanted to build at that theme park. Which opened on April 23, 1957 and was built where the entrance to Disneyland’s “it’s a small world” is currently located. That drive-thru attraction — was tailored for very small children — closed on April 3, 1966. Walt then had those cars sent to Marceline where they were installed in a public park as Disney’s personal gift to the kids who lived in his childhood hometown.

However, over the Paradise Pier portion of this theme park, with the exception of King Triton’s Carousel of the Sea … Well, that side of DCA had no characters. Now you have to remember that 2001 was a year when The Walt Disney Company was dealing with a lot of problems. Especially when it came to the theme park & resorts side of things. In February of that same year, Disney’s California Adventure frozen ride on toy opened at the Disneyland Resort and almost immediately underwhelmed theme park fans. Then seven months after that came 9/11 … And — for at least six months or so — attendance levels at Disney Parks worldwide plummeted because people were afraid to get on airplanes for a while there. Disney stories, characters & attractions that the Guests already love but now powered by cutting edge tech.
