Dutch singer Jan Smit is currently climbing the charts in the Netherlands with his song “Leef Nu Het Kan” (which Babel Fish tells me translates to “Live now it is possible”).

A strangely mesmerizing music video for this song has shown up on YouTube, including shots of Disneyland Paris’ Main Street and castle, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Toy Story’s Buzz Lightyear and Woody, and a bunch of random girls stepping in and out of frame.

It’s a music video that only a Disney fan could enjoy:

Thanks to Inside the Magic listener Clarissa for sending me a link to this video!

When Disney says they like to honor those who have helped make their movies, television shows, and theme parks so successful, they’re not kidding.

On March 11, 2010, the songwriting Sherman Brothers were honored at Disneyland by receiving their own window on Main Street USA - a tribute bestowed upon only the most worthy contributors to Disney history.

As part of the roughly 45-minute ceremony, the Sherman Brothers were praised by, amongst others, Disneyland Resort President George Kalogridis and former Imagineer and Walt Disney’s speech writer Marty Sklar. But the best entertainment came in the form of two actors who emerged as the lead characters (mother and father) from Disney’s Carousel of Progress attraction. They hilariously performed a fantastic medley of some of the Sherman Brothers’ biggest hits from Disney’s theme parks and beyond.

Finally, after unveiling the new window, Richard Sherman spoke and performed “Feed the Birds,” a song from “Mary Poppins” and Walt Disney’s favorite. It was a touching moment that no one in attendance will soon forget.

Here is a look at the window ceremony in a few more videos:

First, a slightly-edited-for-time video of the majority of the ceremony, including Marty Sklar’s full speech, the window unveiling, and Richard Sherman’s speech and performance:

Or if you only want to watch Richard Sherman sing “Feed the Birds,” here’s a clip of that performance:

And finally, a short interview with Richard Sherman asking how two brothers can work so well together for so long:

Big thanks to Jeremiah and Josh Daws for covering this special event for Inside the Magic.

Today the songwriting Sherman Brothers received a window on Main Street USA at Disneyland in their honor. The window reads “Two Brothers Tunemakers.”

We’ll have more coverage of the window unveiling ceremony, including video, photos, and an interview later today/tomorrow, but here’s a semi-live look at Richard Sherman singing “Feed the Birds” from Mary Poppins on Main Street as part of the ceremony (sent via iPhone):

Only a few weeks after leaving “The Tonight Show” (after the majorly unfunny Jay Leno to usurped his spot), comedian Conan O’Brien has launched a nationwide tour across the United States that’s being billed as “a night of music, comedy, hugging, and the occasional awkward silence.”

O’Brien is calling the tour “The Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour,” referencing his much-publicized non-competition agreement that he has with NBC-Universal as part of his departure from the network.

Many believe Coco, as fans have been calling him, will return to the airwaves when his noncompete expires, but until then 32 cities across the country will be treated to his antics on stage.

Tour dates begin in Eugene, OR on April 12 and conclude in Atlanta, GA on June 14.

Tickets, and a tour poster (seen here) based off of artwork from a fan who rallied behind O’Brien during the recent late night war, can be found at the new web site: TeamCoco.com.

I hope they add a Florida date or two to the tail end of the tour as I’d love to see this act in person.

In a day full of announcements from Disney’s 2010 shareholder meeting, one additional detail has snuck onto the official Disney Parks Blog. At Walt Disney World, an Epcot monorail will be wrapped in artwork promoting the upcoming film “Tron: Legacy.” Here’s a peek at the artwork featuring a snazzy light cycle design:

Already being unofficially dubbed the “Tron-o-rail,” this artwork could be seen at Walt Disney World as early as some time this month (March), though the “Tron: Legacy” film does not hit theaters until Dec. 2010.

At today’s shareholders meeting, Disney CEO Bob Iger also mentioned that a Tron TV series and video games are in development.
