“TOMORROW IS ANOTHER DAY” 203
to go to infinity, if not further, in the cause of justice and goodness. Fred
LaBour wrote the whimsical song, which echoes the satiric nature of the
character of Buzz.
“To the Fairies They Draw Near” is the opening number for the
animated video Tinker Bell (2008), a prequel of sorts to Peter Pan (1953).
Loreena McKennitt wrote the folk-like song, filled with the flavor of an old
Irish ballad, and sings it on the soundtrack when the new fairy Tinker Bell is
born. The lyric explains how the fairies bring about spring, and the number
is reprised at the end of the film when Tinker Bell and all the other fairies
travel to the mainland to deliver the seeds of spring.
“Today Is Gonna Be a Great Day” is the rapid rock song written and
performed by the group Bowling for Soup in the opening sequence of the
animated television series Phineas and Ferb (2007). The vigorous, satiric
number counts the days of summer vacation and lists the cockeyed ways the
stepbrothers Phineas and Ferb plan to use them, from fighting a mummy to
climbing the Eiffel Tower to locating Frankenstein’s brain.
“Together Time” is the merry waltz number that celebrates the mating

the cheerful number celebrating the end of winter and the time for two of

collaborated on the song, which is reprised at the end of the movie when
the squirrel Perri is finally reunited with her mate.
“Together We Can” is the lite-rock song about girl bonding that teenagers
Galleria (Raven-Symoné), Chanel (Adrienne Bailon), Aqua (Kiely Williams),
and Dorinda (Sabrina Bryan) sing in the television film The Cheetah
Girls (2003). John Van Tongeren wrote the pop number, in which the four
girls boast that they can do anything, including saving the human race, if
they do it together. The song was made into a music video featuring the
four singers.
“Tomorrow Is Another Day” is the expansive song of optimism Carol
Connors and Ayn Robbins wrote for the animated movie The Rescuers
(1977). As the mice Bernard and Bianca fly on Albatross Airlines from
New York City to the Devil’s Bayou in Louisiana, Shelby Flint sings the
