Or is that just me?

Interestingly, in creating the Disneyland 50 retrospective, I mixed remastered segments of such Park hits as Yo Ho, A Pirates Life for Me and it's a small world after all with old recordings from the 60's. The old sounds were decidedly "right," and the new mixes were beautifully awesome. I used them both, as both were great. I'm glad I didn't have to choose between, and I'm none too sure anyone notices the mid-song switcheroos but me.
