BAY LAKE, Fla. – A wild ride deserves a rockin’ playlist.
For Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets, the music takes center stage, and News 6 experienced a first listen of the new tracks that guests will hear as they blast through the newly reimagined attraction when it opens May 26.
Every song on the set list is a cover, performed by Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. The songs won’t be released, previewed, or heard anywhere else until guests experience them inside the attraction.
Until then, News 6 has rated the tracks we heard on a scale of one to five, “rock on” hand signs.
- “Song 2″ 🤘🤘🤘🤘
- “Born to be Wild” 🤘🤘🤘
- “Love Rollercoaster” – The Electric Mayhem featuring Jennifer Hudson and Questlove
- “Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)” – The Electric Mayhem featuring Def Leppard
- “Walking on Sunshine” – The Electric Mayhem featuring Kelly Clarkson
The Muppet makeover
G-Force Records — the legendary recording studio at the heart of what was once Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith — is now under new, Muppet management.
Scooter’s uncle, real estate tycoon J.P. Grosse, added the label to his portfolio alongside the Muppet Theatre.
Inside the studio, guests will find the Electric Mayhem band doing what they do best — laying down groovy tunes ahead of their biggest Hollywood concert ever.
The only problem? The band needs to get across town, fast.
That’s where guests come in. Armed with VIP passes, riders are swept into the chaos as Scooter scrambles to get Animal, Dr. Teeth, and the rest of the band to their increasingly restless fans.
Beyond the story, fans can expect a visual overhaul.
The attraction’s iconic oversized guitar in the courtyard will feature a vibrant, psychedelic design — inspired by a classic Muppet car paint job — while a golden key on the piano motif pays tribute to a certain far-out band leader.
In true Muppet fashion, celebrity cameos are sprinkled throughout the experience, from the queue all the way to the merchandise shop.
