“it’s a small world”

A tribute to the happy spirit of children
everywhere, “it’s a small world” carries
guests along the Seven Seaways aboard
“the happiest cruise that ever sailed.”
This whirlwind global voyage features
®
stylized doll-like Audio-Animatronics
figures of children, each dressed in
traditional regional costumes from
countries that span every continent.
It also includes, for the first time in

any of Disney’s “it’s a small world”
attractions around the globe, popular
Disney characters as doll-like figures
and toys in the countries in which
their stories take place. Together
the children sing, in a variety of
languages, It’s a Small World (After
All), with familiar Disney melodies
providing a musical counterpoint.
Hong Kong Disneyland has re-
recorded this classic song in four new
languages, Cantonese, Putonghua,
Korean and Tagalog. In Hong Kong Disneyland, the song is sung in altogether 9
languages (English, Putonghua, Cantonese, Korean, Japanese, Tagalog, Italian,
Spanish and Swedish).

FUN FACTS
• The Hong Kong version of It’s A Small World soundtrack was
produced by Hong Kong music producer Chiu Tsang-hei ( 趙增熹 ),
with Cantonese lyrics by James Wong ( 黃霑 ) and Mandarin lyrics by
Lin Xi ( 林夕 ).

• “it’s a small world” contains 241 Audio-Animatronics figures representing
