TRIVIA

The segment, "Blue Bayou" was originally meant for "Fantasia". Also a Debussy piece called "Clair de Lune" was originally meant for "Fantasia" but was considered to long and was going to be featured in "Make Mine Music". The directors of the film were going for more contemporary music, so "Blue Bayou" was substituted for "Clair de Lune".
