Simply Mad About the Mouse collects affectionate tributes to Disney's songs from artists like the Gipsy Kings,
Soul II Soul, and
Kirk Whalum.
Bobby McFerrin's "Siamese Cat Song,"
En Vogue's "Someday My Prince Will Come," and
Harry Connick, Jr.'s "Bare Necessities" are among the highlights of this album. Also included are
Michael Bolton's cover of "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes" and
Billy Joel's "When You Wish Upon a Star." The collection is an eclectic and enjoyable homage to Disney's songwriting excellence. ~ Heather Phares
