"First we hear the song 'Everything Is Wonderful in Wonderland.' That contrasts with the villain's song, when he tells how he's going to bring 'order' to Wonderland by taking the color out and turning everything right side up. I don't think he is really scary. Just mean."
Michael HirshThe songs in The Care Bears Adventure in Wonderland were composed and performed by John Sebastian, who performed "Nobody Cares like a Bear" in the first Care Bears Movie. For this instalment, Sebastian sang "Have You Seen This Girl?" and the "Wonderland" song, while singer and songwriter Natalie Cole performed the film’s opening song, "Rise and Shine". The score was written by Patricia Cullen (who had previously scored the first two films), and orchestrated and conducted by Milton Barnes. Todd Sussman of The Miami News said, "A musical score of seven forgettable songs is ornamental and does little to advance the plot. ... Even the opening number is unmemorable. It's hookless."

“If mass communications blend together harmoniously, and often unnoticeably, art, politics, religion, and philosophy with commercials, they bring these realms of culture to their common denominatorthe commodity form. The music of the soul is also the music of salesmanship. Exchange value, not truth value, counts.”

“Yankee Doodle, keep it up,
Yankee Doodle, dandy,
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy.”
