Pirates of the Caribbean is one of Disneyland’s most famous rides. The theme song from the ride is loosely based off of the sea-shanty Dead Man’s chest from the novel Treasure Island. The song was composed specifically for the attraction back in 1967. It really has become a symbol of the ride and is one of the best parts of Pirates of the Caribbean.

The ride opened in 1966 and the theme song can be translated into all different languages very easily.
