/* Songs in the Attraction http://www.worldlibrary.org/articles/splash_mountain */
Due to the attraction being located in Frontierland, the Walt Disney World soundtrack differs from the Disneyland one. Banjos and harmonicas are used as primary instruments to give the attraction a more country feel.
