A pop-punk Disney album wasn’t on our bingo card for 2024, but honestly, we’re not mad about it!
Seriously, what’s better than potentially crowd surfing to “A Whole New World” or air guitaring to “Colors of the Wind”? We really can’t think of anything (or maybe we kinda can, but it wouldn’t be as AWESOME!).
A Whole New Sound is an upcoming album featuring reimagined Disney classics covered by iconic rock bands such as Plain White T’s, Bowling For Soup, and many more (The Warped Tour girly in me is HYPED). The first single released for the album was “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” from The Lion King by Simple Plan, and now Disney has released ANOTHER new single AND revealed the full tracklist!
“Part of Your World” from The Little Mermaid, performed by New Found Glory, was released along with a music video. This version of the song brings a fresh twist to Ariel’s timeless classic, giving it a new edge while staying true to the original emotion behind it.
“In approaching this song, I sat with the lyrics and melodies for a while. I realized that to make people feel what Ariel’s feeling, we needed to match the energy of the music with the rebellious thoughts of the song, along with her hope for adventure,” Chad Gilbert, guitarist of New Found Glory stated. “Our band’s biggest goal has always been to show and encourage young adults, the young at heart, and any person that has a dream but faces self-doubt that there is another world out there that will accept them for exactly who they are. To not be afraid to take the next step.”
- A Whole New Sound will be released on September 6th, and here’s a look at the official tracklist for the album:
- “Part of Your World” from The Little Mermaid by New Found Glory

While searching for some Taylor Swift information, I landed here. Previously I was unaware of this Disney project. Now I have to look into Disney “punk” which is most interesting and new to me. Thanks for the inspiration!
