1996 To Present Day Version
The Electrical Water Pageant that guests see today, consists of the same floats in the same formation dating back to 1977. The only difference is in 1996 a new musical score was created for both the opening and closing of the Electrical Water Pageant as well as each creature depicted in the pageant.
The 1996 to present day lineup of floats and music are:
Opening: "Fanfare" from The Little Mermaid
- Sea Serpent (four floats) "Boo Bop Bopbop Bop (I Love You Too)" from Pete's Dragon
- Whale (one float) "Whale of a Tale" from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
- Turtle (one float)
- Octopus (one float) "Poor Unfortunate Souls" from The Little Mermaid
- Three Jumping Dolphins (three floats)
- Brachiosaurus (one float) "Walk the Dinosaur" by Was (Not Was)
- Crocodile (one float) "Never Smile At a Crocodile" from Peter Pan
- Four Seahorses (one float) "Fanfare" & "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid
- Neptune (one float) "Fanfare" & "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid
All floats then change to the American Flag & Stars as they have been doing since 1971: (9 Piece) - "You're a Grand Old Flag", "Yankee Doodle", & "America the Beautiful"
Closing: "Fireworks" & "Jig" from The Little Mermaid

Famous quotes containing the words present, day and/or version:
“We see past time in a telescope and present time in a microscope. Hence the apparent enormities of the present.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“If anyone should want to know my name, I am called Leah. And I spend all my time weaving garlands of flowers with my fair hands, to please me when I stand before the mirror; my sister Rachel sits all the day long before her own, and never moves away. She loves to contemplate her lovely eyes; I love to use my hands to adorn myself: her joy is in reflection, mine in act.”
—Dante Alighieri (1265–1321)
“If the only new thing we have to offer is an improved version of the past, then today can only be inferior to yesterday. Hypnotised by images of the past, we risk losing all capacity for creative change.”
—Robert Hewison (b. 1943)
