Wonderful World of Color Intro 

I didn't see all the color growing up because it would've required a color TV. My dad wouldn't get one for years because that was for "fancy people." The same with getting things like a power mower, a snowblower and an air conditioner - only "fancy people" had that.

OH MAN, as a little kid just watching and hearing this intro every Sunday night, filled me with euphoria. It was magical.

omg this takes me back!

The full song used to be here on RU-vid but it was pulled off due to a violation of some kind. I miss it too.

the full version was only used on the premiere on 9/24/61. i videotaped it about 9 years ago when this show was a part o the Vault Disney block on the Disney channel. i know the Disney channel will never bring it back and i still hold out a faint hope that that there will be a Vault Disney cable channel someday, well i can dream,can't i ??????

Our neighbors had the first color TV on the block. I remember going next door to watch this every week.....and The Flinstones.

No Bonanza or Ed Sullivan for me. I had to go to bed after that. : (

We loved this!We also had B&W television it never occurred to me I was missing anything...but I also have ,always had ,a very vivid imagination. And today I still enjoy B&W!

Wonderful response. You were better off just not saying anything. :/

clickclackclickclack don't start we got over it so...don't start k

Hasta que lo vi a color a mis 51 años hombre

Yes, every Sunday night when I was a kid. It was wonderful.

I would LOVE to see *ALL* of the various intros of The Wonderful World of Disney/Color/Walt Disney Presents/Disneyland, etc. on RU-vid. I found out recently that there were a few different intros used for The Wonderful World of Disney incarnation (as opposed to the one intro that Vault Disney used all the time).

Who was that announcer? He seemed to be the Voice of Disney!

I just adore this intro. I remember it well. Every Sunday night we would gather 'round the TV set to watch Disney. Thanks for the memory.

This needs to be featured on *Kids React*

Thank you. Glad to know someone remembers! Wish I could have seen it when it was on You Tube! Thanks for responding!

brings back soo many happy memories ..thanks

Looking back, it didn't matter if we only had a B&W TV set. I just enjoyed watching the Disney Show every Sunday night, especially the classic cartoons.

@choirboyfromhell Yep Right after AFL double headers

This intro was great, even in "Living Black and White"!

Does anyone have the FULL theme. I think some words were: ...Of people like u & like me. The kingdoms of magic & science the marvelous story or art. The world or romance, of music & dance. This world where we each play a part... The miracle of imagination. The wonders of earth, sea, & sky... Can't remember all the words. ...In the funny world, the sunny world. The wonderful world of color.....

You can see Donald too...

@choirboyfromhell In the 1980's they were aired on syndication on Saturday mornings.

in ref to the comment: "first two seconds into the kaleidoscope background, you can see mickey and pluto" you can also see Donald Duck time stamp 21 seconds

And Now We're Pleased To Bring You Our Feature Presentation...🌈🌠🌟💫🌠

@ClickClackClickClack Don't. Just don't start. :/

There's no Mexican, Middle-Eastern, Indian, Asian, Samoan, and even Aborigine people either but you don't see them complaining about it.

when will the project be finished?

I saw them!

Actually, 'Home', Ed Sullivan was on Sunday nights at 8pm(et) on CBS from April 1949 through July 1971, although the show occasionally expanded to 90 minutes [usually 8-9:30pm]. "WALT DISNEY'S WONDERFUL WORLD OF COLOR" was on Sundays at 7:30pm(et) on NBC from September 1961 through September 1969 {then, as "THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY" from '69 through '75 in the same time period}. The network deliberately scheduled his show to appear opposite the first half of Sullivan's at the time.

Well, Ed devoted an entire hour to Walt on "TOAST OF THE TOWN" {"The Walt Disney Story"} in 1953, and I'm sure they were good friends, 'Home', despite their networks' rivalry in scheduling their shows opposite each other during the '60s.....

flashback

Around 8pm(et), Ed usually had more viewers than Walt during most of the '60s, although occasionally, both were upstaged by ABC's "THE FBI" at 8.....

it's so great but i need the version "latina" i'm of venezuela. gracias soy venezolana podrias subir la version mexicana para mis recuerdos esta esta fabulosa x fa

Didnt this inspire the World of Color water show at Disney California Adventure ?

@TwilightLink77 Yeah. Although the new version sounds like some sort of pop techno music.

This was great to watch when you bought a new color tv. Kids today don't even know what a black/white tv looks like.

@freedogshampoo Yeah, Donald is clearly visible, too.

That announcer was on just about everything Disney, and probably all around Disneyland in the 60's. As a kid, whenever you heard his voice, you knew something 'magical' was about to happen.

oh! ha!

Music For Nimrods on KXLU!!!

Buddy Baker Scored this...

I see Donald too!
