Originally Posted By LVdisneyfan I don't know for sure, but I wouldn't think it would be impossible to get permission from the record label, as Darin's vocals has been used in compilation discs in the last few years. That plus the track was recorded by Disney I would think make it a little easier. It's only a track on my sort of bucket list, at least that is the spirit in which this thread was created.
Originally Posted By u k fan I too would love a CD of the music from John Henry. I want an instrumental version of He Mele No Lilo as well, but that's only so I can sing it karaoke style! I have a really old cassette boxset that has some rarities on it including tracks from The Living Desert and a few others!!!

I'd also like to get the Rescue Aid Society theme song that was left out of the Rescuers Down Under CD.

Is there anything on this set that's been on your wish list? I see a couple of things that I'd like, such as a decent version of "The Three Caballeros", but for the most part it's stuff I have.
Originally Posted By FerretAfros A friend showed me a link to that set about a month ago. There are some really interesting (in a good way) choices on the list, like Whistle Stop from Robin Hood (I had no idea that's what it was called), Seize the Day, Out There, and the old Epcot stuff. There are also some really interesting (in the confusing way) choices, like Strangers Like Me (Tarzan), Look Through My Eyes (Brother Bear), and the Lizzie McGuire song. While there are definitely things on there that I'd like to have, enough of it is retreads and/or songs I don't particularly care about. For me, I'd rather have a CD set that covers one theme in depth than have one that covers a lot of things but without too much of any one of them
Originally Posted By basil fan >>For me, I'd rather have a CD set that covers one theme in depth than have one that covers a lot of things but without too much of any one of them I heartily agree. I buy (nearly) all the discs of entire soundtracks, so the only new stuff on here for me are the aforementioned Caballeros & Robin Hood tracks. And, while I would welcome the Darksing Duck theme, there are a lot of "Skip button" tracks from HSM, Wizards of Waverly Place, etc. Nice-looking box, though.
