194 “TAPESTRY OF DREAMS”
number seven on the charts and sold more than seven hundred thousand
discs. Kristen Bell made a snappy recording of the pop song in 2003.
“Tapestry of Dreams” is the hypnotic, ritualistic song that was heard
during the Tapestry of Nations parade held at Epcot to celebrate the new
millennium. Much of the musical piece is rhythmic chanting of sounds and
foreign phrases accompanied by drumming, but at times a chorus is heard
singing about using one’s imagination and envisioning a world where all nations
live in harmony. Although the number was used only during the year
2000, millions of spectators at the park heard the engrossing piece and can
still recall it vividly.
“Teacher’s Pet” is the pop title ballad by Joe Lubin for the 2000 animated
television series about a dog who disguises himself as a boy so he can go to
school. Christy Carlson Romano sings the seductive but silly bubblegum kind

version of Teacher’s Pet, and she made a music video of the song as well.
“Team Sandwich” is the rapping rock song by Brock Walsh that was turned

performed similar magic in High School Musical (2006) and its sequels.
“Teamo Supremo Theme” is the jazzy, rock-flavored theme song for
the animated television series Teamo Supremo (2004), about three kid
superheroes who save the planet in between going to school and doing
their homework. Ian Dye wrote the pounding number that introduces the
pint-size Captain Crandall, Rope Girl, and Skate Lad each week during the
action-packed opening credits.
“Temper, Temper” is the nightmarish song of caution written by George
Stiles and Anthony Drewe for the London stage version of Mary Poppins
(2004). The toys and dolls in the children’s nursery come to life, taking on
huge proportions, and haunt the young Jane and Michael Banks because
they have lost their temper on occasion. The odd, menacing number takes
