I second the request for Los Lobos' version of "I wanna be like you (the Monkey Song)." I'm pretty sure it was on the Stay Awake album. It totally swings with a great baritone sax line! Great blog -- I really enjoy it!
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy also did a cover of "I Wanna Be Like You," and Suburban Legends covered "Under the Sea." Not sure if there's a recording of the latter one, but they perform it whenever they play the House of Blues in Downtown Disney.
Hey, neat blog! You should check out Buckethead. He's a huge Disney fan. On almost every tour he's played one or two covers. On his last tour he played Grim Grinning Ghosts with That 1 Guy. Check out the video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYct_HbAXn0. He's also covered Pirates Life for Me. He even called one of his tours "Disney World to Disney Land Tour" and is supposedly working on an album of all Disney covers!
according to my copy of of Elvis's Sun recordings "I don't care if the sun don't shine" was written for Cinderella, but never included. I request Dean Marrin's version
I would love to hear some covered "Alice in Wonderland" songs. I know that these are very rare, but that's part of the reason I'd like to see some of them on here. :-p
I'm sure you know this already. but there's a cover of Jolly Holiday by The Flintstones. and it's really cool if you wanna know more about it email me gracysmanor@gmail.com I also have the mp3
Please do a report of Feed the Birds by Garth Hudson (from The Band) from the 1988 album Stay Awake. This is the best cover version of any song I have ever heard, and is just as powerful and emotional as the version featured in Mary Poppins. You listen to the song at this link: http://garth-hudson-feed-the-birds-mp3-download.kohit.net/_/49735
If you could get the cover of Part of That World by Jessica Simpson, that would be wonderful! She definitely does the best cover of the song in my opinion.
Love Love Love the site! I really like covers of songs from the parks like Enchanted Tiki Room and It's A Small World and such. Anything from the parks is welcome!
hi, i was watching an old special someone posted on youtube. and there was dumbo's "pink elephants on parade". so i was wondering if you know if anyone did a cover of that song. i think that one would be fun.
Every time I come to your site, I glance at the Hercules image and it makes me yearn for a song from the movie. I was also wondering if you had any covers for Hunchback of Notre Dame or The Sword in the Stone. The rest of my movie favorites you've mostly covered ;)
Since next week is Villains Week, I would like to hear for "Terrible Track Friday," the dance mix of Cruella de Vil, because that track is just TERRIBLE enough to be a part of Terrible Track Friday. I'll explain it: What it is is basically a boring house/techno rhythm and a ghastly "musical" combination of horn samples from the film and samples from Cruella's evil laugh (and her car). If any bit of the song is mentioned, it comes back from time to time, and the original version a very short song indeed, lasting at about 1:49. This rather peculiar and atrocious dance mix brings it up to a grating 3:10. This raises the question: Why, of all the songs to re-arrange to a dance format, did they have to pick this one, and use the ORIGINAL recording as a basis?
Hi, I'm from Chile, in the end of the world. I found your blog looking for Disney Covers. This is a great site so I visit it every day, although sometimes I don't understand, because I speak Spanish. I'd like to hear more Heigh-Ho! Mozart, because I've tried to find the songs but I can't. My favorite Disney covers are Kiss The Girl, sung by Ashley Tisdale and Part of Your World, sung by Skye Sweetnam, so I would enjoy too much if I saw these songs here And I'd like to listen to any cover made by 'Operacion Triunfo', a group from Spain. My favorites are "Aquella Estrella" (The Second Star to the Right), "Quiero Ser Como TĂș" (I Wan'na Be Like You) and "Ay Ho" (Heigh-Ho) I'm sorry if I wrote a nonsense, but English is not my language, I'm 16 and I'm learning to speak English. Please correct me.
Hey! I was just wondering if you have any more covers of Chim Chim Cheree. I rally like the song and would be very thankful if you have any. B.T.W. I Love your site! You have got the best selection of music!
Hello Mary Poppins is one of my favorite disney especially cause of "just a spoonfull..." could you please post some covers of this song (or anything else poppins-related)
Have any Barbra Streisand? She did a great Someday My Prince Will Come. She also supposedly did Rainbow Connection, not really Disney - but kinda... I have always really wanted to hear that one. It is such a sweet song. And what about Michael Jackson? He did a When You Wish Upon a Star for a TV special - did he ever do any proper ones?
It is a 100%, completely true, subjective FACT that "Savages" from Pocahontas is Disney's greatest song EVER! Interestingly enough, it is because it is so non-Disney. Please, please, PLEASE, in the most horrible, actually-make-you-not-want-to-help-me tone of voice, find a bangin' cover? Thanks for your precious time. Kay bye-bye.
There is a spanish Band called Mocedades who covered a lot of Disney songs on an album called "Mocedades Canta A Walt Disney". Here is a link: http://www.mocedades.com/sound.php
Do you think you can put on the "Once Upon A Dream"- or "Someday My Prince Will Come"-version from this CD?
Scouring your site for this Vote 2008, I couldn't help but notice a screencap from The Great Mouse Detective... any covers of that "Oh Ratigan!" song--which I just found out is called "World's Greatest Criminal Mind" and written by Henri Mancini! To me, it seems a precursor to the Gaston song in Beauty & the Beast with the drunken reverent chorus.
Over the years, many musical artists have paid tribute to the music of Disney. This blog pays tribute to those artists.
You won't find any original Disney songs here, these are all covers, interpretations and variations on the tunes we all love.
Covering the Mouse is not associated with Disney or any major record label. If you wish to have a song removed from my site, please email me and I will be happy to comply.

Do you have any covers of Les Poissons or Poor Unfortunate Souls? I'd like to hear any if you do.
Are there any covers of classic Disney princess songs? Cinderella (besides Bibidi-Bobidi-Boo), Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, etc.?
I think there is a cover of When You Wish upon a Star by Gene Simmons. Can you post that?

My fav is "Why Should I Worry?" from Oliver and Company.
Los Lobos did a cover of "I Wanna Be Like You (the Monkey Song)" from the Jungle Book (the animated version.) Please post.
The Replacements did a cover of Cruella De Vil- you can find it on the 2nd of the 2-disc All For Nothing/Nothing For All set.

There is a beautiful cover of "Alice in Wonderland" by Bill Evans. He made a cover of "Someday my..." too.
according to my copy of of Elvis's Sun recordings "I don't care if the sun don't shine" was written for Cinderella, but never included. I request Dean Marrin's version
I mean MarTin's version.
how 'bout sun ra's "forest of no return"? i'm pretty sure it from the second star... record.the band has great fun with it.
I'd love to hear a cover of Be Prepared, from the Lion King. If a bossanova version of it exists, I'll swoon, but any cover would be fun to hear
I would love to hear some covered "Alice in Wonderland" songs. I know that these are very rare, but that's part of the reason I'd like to see some of them on here. :-p
I would love to know if anyone has covered "Be Prepared" from the Lion King... maybe have a Villain's Songs week?
additionally, it would be nice to be able to search by genre of cover - rock, jazz, country, pop, etc...
I'm sure you know this already.
but there's a cover of Jolly Holiday by The Flintstones.
and it's really cool if you wanna know more about it email me gracysmanor@gmail.com I also have the mp3
Can we have Bonnie Raitt's version of Baby of Mine?
Thanks!

Do you have a good cover of the song Stick-To-It-Tivity from So Dear To My Heart?

I would love if you found an Emperors New Groove cover... or any of the older disney movies... like more Robin Hood. Tarzan is also AMAZING. :)
Love your site.It's amazing!
Can you post some songs from Alice in Wonderland and Pinocchio.
Following the Leader from Peter Pan.

And by the way, I was that last commenter who requested "Cruella de Vil."
You might disagree and want to put it on Terrible Track Friday, but I love Captain Bogg and Salty's piratical cover of Part of Your World.
How about "Be Our Guest" from Beauty and the Beast?
The most recent posting reminded me of another one...
"Just Around the Riverbend"
i've heard lea salonga did a cover of 'someone's waiting for you' from disney's The Rescuers.
would be great if you can post it here.

There's a gorgeous cover of "Baby Mine" by Allison Krauss that deserves to be on this site. :}
Found your blog thanks to Coverville. Do you know if there is a cover of "Be Prepared" from Lion King? It's a song that just drips with villany.

Hi I was just wondering if you can put The Siamese song on here. I really like how Haylie and Hillary duff sing it. Thank you!
Did anyone else do a rendition of Walt Disney World's 25th Anniversary theme song, Remember the Magic, besides Brian McKnight?
I understand Gloria Estefan sang a version for the television special promoting the yearlong event.
Thank you.
