Definitely SpectroMagic. The music and everything about it just captures that Disney essence for me. It chokes me up everytime. Not to mention I have a soft spot for the light parades in general.

Disneyland Fantasmic! I watch everytime I go. Someone spilled their pop on me last time and it was still worth it, just a little sticky...

Ok my vote has to go for Illuminations - because of the music - I do wish that the globe was larger and it was easier to see, but the music just blows me away!

Seocnd place would have to be wishes - It just brings tears to my eyes.

I must admit that I have never seen any of he DL night shows.

I do love the music (pre- and post-show music, too) for IllumiNations, although I've seen only the original IllumiNations in person. I also enjoy the music for the Electrical Parade and have sort of a vicarious nostalgia for the parade now even though I never saw it in Disneyland or Disney World growing up... I hadn't even been to Disneyland until moved to Los Angeles a couple of years ago!

But my absolute favorite has to be Fantasmic! at Disneyland: it's just so cool to me how they take actual daytime attractions (Tom Sawyer's Island, the Mark Twain, and the Columbia) and transform them seamlessly into a nighttime spectacular right in the middle of the park. Of course, the thrilling score doesn't hurt. (So I like all the shows' music... that's why I'm here!)

Ok so I'm not sure if it was Wishes or Remember from Disneyland but both of those weigh in equally for me... I voted for Remember though. I love the fact that one one of those can't remember which you hear Walt's voice I think... any one know exactly? When I hear stuff like that and then I hear the music from the rides like Haunted Mansion, Pirates, and Indiana Jones... how can you go wrong with a fireworks show that incorperates ALL of the sections of classic Disney what with all the video audio and everything... it just makes me all fuzzy inside... oh and I really love Wishes during Christmas it was AWESOME with the snow falling down and everything... even got a kiss during it so YAY for me and YAY for Disney for making their fireworks displays both exciting and fun for the whole family as well as romantic... I don't know I always get that cozy feeling watching them anybody else?

it is Remember that you are thinking of. And yeah I get that same way when I hear it....I tend to get goosebumps at varying points during it.

Here is a link for a video of it:

Thanks my brother made that video. I just hate how much google compresses it so it looks like it was done cheap. I like the DVD of it he made me. But of course if you want to just see it on the go google is good to have. He is working on more videos now too. One of them is the Disneyland version of Fantasmic so more folks will be able to see it.

Voted for Reflections. I love Epcot.

I'm biased. I used to watch Illuminations every night at work on the college program. If I let myself go just a bit, it will make me cry. It's the most special to me, so for me, it's the best.

It's hard to say, since I have not seen all of the night entertainments, but from the ones I have seen I have to say Fantasmic, because I remember it when I was little. I really liked Remember... Dreams Come True as well since it includes several components that make up what Disneyland is today.

For me, it's Reflections of Earth. The fireworks combined with the music are hard to beat (I never get tired of that music). For some reason the Disney Studios version of Fantasmic just doesn't do it for me. Maybe I need to try it again next visit.
