Kingdom Hearts Memorial Music Box

The Kingdom Hearts Memorial Music Box website features "Blast Away -Gummi Ship I-" as one of eight tracks from the Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX soundtrack.

The song is represented by the Gummi Ship and is accompanied by cutscene images and quotes related to the Gummi Ship and Disney allies.
