August 13, 200917 yr Name some songs that make you think of or envision a beautiful day at Kings Island or any amusement park. for me i would have to pick Mr Blue sky by the electric light orchestra light and day, the polyphonic spree hmmm, I'll think of more and post back, LOL <h3 class="r"> </h3>
August 13, 200917 yr Any song from Capital Lights' This is an Outrage album reminds me of the 2008 season. More specifically "Remember the Day" from that album.
August 13, 200917 yr There is ONE song that the second I hear it, I immediately think of ONE park. No exceptions. Every time, and it makes me very happy: The park? Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk...not only does the song fit the place, but they play it nearly constantly! And there is another that makes me think of a wonderful place in California (and another in Florida, etc.). Unfortunately that one makes most people groan:

Unfortunately that one makes most people groan: Having worked at the MK, I can tell you that the constant background music played in the various lands embeds itself in your head, from the banjo music played in frontierland, to the calliope music in the former swiss family treehouse to the tropical music in the tiki room, I still remember it note for note!
August 14, 200917 yr Does anyone old enough remember the jingle the first year Kings Island opened? I remember the tune but only a few words, " Kings Island, come on get happy, Kings Island, come on get happy. I also remember the jingle the second season: When you come to Kings Island you'll always smile, there's a whole lot of happy going on. There's a whole lot of happy, happy, going on. I'm sure Terpy remembers.
August 14, 200917 yr Oh yes, Terpy remembers! He also remembers when Cedar Point was The Amazement Park!
August 14, 200917 yr ^ " Let's go up to Cedar Point, summertime's amazement park" Those are the only words I remember.
August 14, 200917 yr Anything from Endless Summer on Ice. School's Out, Vacation (Go-Go's), Let's Get It Started, etc.
August 14, 200917 yr Okay, that of course makes me add two more: This of course reminds me of Six Flags, and of Coney Mall until recently! and The last reminds me both of Six Flags entry plazas and Kings Island's train.
August 14, 200917 yr While walking through International Street, "Penny Lane" by The Beatles comes to mind.
