If you have been playing the game as much as I have you can almost hear the music in your sleep. Disney has released the Epic Mickey Soundtrack on iTunes for your downloading pleasure.
This is a must own for fans of the game, or scores in general. This was well deserving of X Play‘s video game soundtrack of the year.

Like scores of other businesses and interest groups across the state, Walt Disney World is cozying up to incoming Florida Gov. Rick Scott just before Scott is sworn into office next month.
Disney this month cut a $25,000 check to Scott’s inaugural committee to help the Republican governor-elect pay for a series of public and private events he is planning to commemorate his Jan. 4 swearing-in as Florida’s 45 governor.
Scott’s inaugural committee has raised approximately $2.5 million so far, more than twice as much as outgoing Gov. Charlie Crist spent on his own inauguration in 2006. Universal Orlando gave the committee $25,000 in November. Click here to see the full list of contributors.
Disney spent heavily to defeat Scott this summer when the former healthcare executive was seeking the Republican nomination, opting to back Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum instead. But the giant resort immediately got behind Scott for the general election, in which Scott narrowly defeated Democratic Chief Financial Officer Alex Sink.

It’s Christmas time, and while today that means people grinching about whether or not you should say “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas,” there was a time when the biggest issue people had was which televised Christmas special they were going to watch. We’ve all seen the one with Rudolph and that one with the Heat Miser, and I’m sure the amount of hours spent watching the adventures of Frosty the Snowman would be shameful. Though those were all enjoyable when we were kids, we haven’t had a real grown-up Christmas special in a long time. That’s where this video comes in.

Disney California Adventure plans to temporarily close corridors, shut down stores and stop its parade as crews work on a major, $1 billion overhaul of the theme park.
Disney next year will start finishing major projects of the five-year, park makeover, which is set to be completed in 2012. New jobs are set to begin in early January, said John McClintock, a Disneyland Resort spokesman. Click on the photo to see a slideshow of before, during and after artwork of Disney California Adventure, as well as other changes.
The biggest project will come in the entrance area of the park, which will transform into Buena Vista Street — an area meant to look like Southern California when Walt Disney began his career here. The park’s entrance will move temporarily at the end of summer.
Pixar Play Parade is set to go on hiatus for most of the year as crews repave and close major corridors. Check the blog tomorrow for a story on entertainment changes in 2011.
Most attractions will remain open during the construction, McClintock said.
