Mousercise is a 1982 album featuring songs featuring aerobic dancing and exercise with Mickey Mouse and his friends. The album was produced by Michael Stewart and arranged by Billy Meyers.
The album, along with a followup, Mickey Mouse Splashdance, serve as a sequel to the 1979 disco-style album Mickey Mouse Disco. The record was also released in Japan, but only contained three of the track listings. It was re-released on CD in 1995.
In 1983, a year after the album's release, it would serve as the inspiration for a TV show on The Disney Channel. In addition, many of the songs would also be made into music videos on DTV, another Disney Channel show, which sets the songs to footage of classic Disney cartoons.
As of 2023, select tracks from this album can be heard in the queue for the Disneyland version of Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway.

Later Revivals[]
In 2005, a new version of Mousercise was released on CD. In addition to updated versions of preexisting tracks from the original album, there were more recent songs from more recent Disney films featured as well. The 2005 CD, however, was nowhere near as successful as the original 1982 album.
In 2016, yet another version of Mousercise was released in Japan, featuring still more updated songs, such as those from Frozen.
