All VHS volumes are technically out of print, but most are available new or second-hand wherever videos are sold. The DVD series (4th series) features Sebastian the Crab (from The Little Mermaid) singing the theme song, replacing Professor Owl. Winnie-the-Pooh Sing a Song volumes are also in the Sing Along Songs series. Some Disney DVD feature releases include individual songs as bonus features. Newly remastered editions began appearing in November 2002 on Disney DVD, beginning with Very Merry Christmas Songs, featuring a new package design, bonus features, and some new songs. There have been over 30 titles released to home video. This series abandoned any new volume numbers, included only sporadically on third series volumes.Ī special three volume set, Disney's Sing-Along Songs: Collection of All Time Favorites, was released in July 1997. On March 2, 1999, 14 of the videos were reprinted by Disney, and the final release in this format was Flik's Musical Adventure at Disney's Animal Kingdom on June 8, 1999. Some songs moved to newer volumes whilst newly remixed opening and closing songs appeared. Spanish language editions of some volumes were released as " Disney Canta Con Nosotros". This series incorporated Mickey's Fun Songs repackaged as Sing Along Songs (a three volume live-action set in the style of Disneyland Fun). The third series, beginning in December 1994 with Circle of Life, saw another new package design and the re-release of all previous volumes (excluding Fun With Music, repackaged as 101 Notes of Fun for the non-North American market). The second series began appearing in May 1990 with Under the Sea and in August of the same year with Disneyland Fun, featuring a new design and reissued volumes labeled One (1) through Twelve (12) in North America (worldwide, volume numbers differed with Australia continuing to number volumes while other countries discontinued the numbering). The first launched in October 1986 with Disney's Sing-Along Songs: Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, followed by five more volumes. All in all, another good sing-along.Issued beginning in 1986, there have been four distinct series. On top of that, Heigh Ho has one of the most entertaining links of any of the Disney sing-along-song video, when Panchita from The Three Caballeros keeps interrupting Professor Owl during his introduction of Zorro's theme, it wasn't just the interrupting but also how increasingly irritated the professor seemed. Also featuring are Let's Go Fly a Kite, the slinky Siamese Cat Song and Up Down Touch the Ground, as well as an extended and surprising rendition of Hi Diddle Dee Dee. Other than the Yodel Song, my favourites from Heigh Ho were The Three Caballeros which is nothing short of colourful fun and the rollicking Yo Ho. The animation and music are wonderful throughout this video, I especially love the dark visual style of the Zorro segment. As fun as Heigh Ho is, The Yodel Song I just prefer, and alongside Whistle While You Work and Someday My Prince Will Come it is one of my favourite songs from the film. Like a lot of the sing-along videos, it has two songs from its respective film, Heigh Ho and The Yodel Song. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs always has been one of my favourite Disney movies, and this entry from the wonderful Disney sing-along series pays perfect tribute to it.
