I didn't know this fact until last week! There's something fun about that quirky tune. I like it so much, I have part of it at the top of my blog.
It's fun to be free
To be on the move
To go anywhere with ever a care to
Do all you've wanted to do
It's fun to be free
It's fun to be free
To be on the move
You go where you please
With comfort and ease to
See all there is to be seen
It's fun to be free
It's fun to be free
To be on the move
To go for a hike
Whenever you like to
Do all there is to be done
It's fun...
To be free!
I remember World of Motion, do you? The former attraction sponsored by General Motors was located in the current location of Test Track. World of Motion operated from 1982 to 1996. It was an opening day attraction at EPCOT Center in '82. Guests boarded Omnimover vehicles and would be taken through scenes that took a whimsical look at the history and achievements in transportation, from the invention of the wheel to present day transportation and the future. The end of the attraction attempted to predict future transportation by putting illusions of guests into futuristic vehicles using the Pepper's Ghost illusion technique (similar to the hitchhiking ghosts in the Haunted Mansion). At the end of the ride, guests disembarked into the TransCenter, an interactive area showcasing new products by GM. World of Motion closed in 1996 to make way for a new attraction, Test Track. General Motions continues to be the sponsor of the attraction today.
