Circle of life - Elton John

[shnuggapuff]

elton is king, from a 19 year old black male, that is a true legend, turning a person against heritage to believe in them!

[gatslingerr]

i hate when people comment "thumbs up if you're still watching this in [insert year]." of course you are. what other fucking year would you be watching this in? it's not like its 5000 BC and you're watching this on your iStone.

[TrueEnergizerBunnies]

@gatslingerr Oh, I think I still have my iStone. I feel so old. . .

[Aroreiel]

Beautiful music and lyrics.

[canoedad]

An amazing man.

[vineethonkan]

I love this song skips right after he says: wheel of...

[Modern40thCreed]

I love this version more but you got to love the NAHHHH SINGWANEAGH!!!!!!

[SmileCavy86]

Same could be said about sir eltons voice. Now I'm not putting his younger days down by any means. But there is a richeness in his voice, a fullness that cam ewith age. As oul that calls to the heart. I love that in the voices of our older singers, male and female.

[kdawg15100]

The Lion King is an inspiration for me. No wonder I watched it so many times as a kid. :')

[A1ll9e5n]

Disney then, and Disney now.

I miss you Disney.

[pmcleod25]

To all those 90s babies who haven't had kids yet and were spoiled by the classic movies Disney used to make; what will OUR kids watch? the NEW Disney? These movies don't have the same meanings as they used to, and definitely aren't as unforgettable

[Modern40thCreed]

some of the happiest moments of my life. My Childhood. Thanks Disney I can never forget the time I spent with you close to my heart.

-Your always and forever shall be fan Tanner

[Guigley]

I'm still not sure if Disney has or ever will top this song.

[justcruzzinn]

THERE ARE 28 MORONS WHO NEED TO SHUT UP & GO TO BED BY 8:00 p.M.....HOW DO THESE IDIOT KIDS GET TO STAY UP PAST THEIR BEDTIME...STUPID IDIOT KIDS....

[killerwabbit95]

@justcruzzinn 29 NOW! oh and btw i dont think there morons i think there just not fags and listen to gay songs

[justcruzzinn]

@killerwabbit95 YOUR A FAG...GO TO BED KIDDIEBOY...

[faraaster]

HOW CAN YOU DISLIKE THIS?!

[vixitrixalina]

why is the work "fortune" missed out at 1.17?

i get shivers down my spine and my hairs stand up on end when i hear this. Elton John is a god <3

[ThatsGlue]

@vixitrixalina probably for copyright reasons

[luisg13571]

this is the most complete song ever and it shows us the true meaning to be alive

[CubfanDaMann]

going to see it in theatres tonight!

[Soraplushie]

What! A black man voiced mufasa... hmm... My parents will hear about this!

[tylean210]

love love love this song

[lukestephens18]

wtf @ 1:17

[TheRajunCajun92]

Love this song and movie. Just saw it in 3D. Never lost its touch :)

[MrJnunnally]

28 people may hate elton john but they all HAVE a circle of life even if it's not real.

[Sigurjonsig]

Used to call this song "The Simba Song" as a kid

[Moonshine3991]

Awww!!!

Who do I hug first...?! Elton John, the lion or the baby lion?? *---*

I really love this song and movie! Elton John is the best!!! <3

[TheHowlingDark]

@Moonshine3991

That's easy.

Hug them both at the same time.

[MrFromUSA]

@TheHowlingDark Too bad there are three of them to chose from.

[TheHowlingDark]

@MrFromUSA

My mistake, read it as "Elton John or the baby lion"

Still easy, hug all three at the same time.

[HannahBoltForever]

Imagine watching this as a promotion for The Lion King. People thinking, "Oh, another Disney movie. This should be good." But not knowing that it would become one of the most well known and loved movies (not just animated movies) of all time. :)

[zGuilTx]

Elton john is my idol, his music is amazing, even though im 15 and dont really know good music but iknow for a fact that this is an amazing song thank you elton <3

[MrFromUSA]

@zGuilTx Why would you admit:

1. Elton John's music is amazing,

then,

2. that you don't know good music?

Doesn't make a lick of sense.

[LeonardosBabyGirl11]

There is no other movie that makes me happier or sadder than then this movie. This movie is a life changer. Not only does it teach you to have fun in your life, but it also reminds you that we all have responsibilities that can't be ignored. It's everything a person needs to know to have a good life. I can't express how much I love it! I just started college and watching this movie makes me forget how far away I am from my family and how much I miss them. So thank you Disney! <3

[tylean210]

beautiful song

[mpooleo]

best musician of all time for the best disney movie of all time - watta combo

[MrBarnardoo98]

The 28 people who dislike this are real assholes!

[choo77]

[MelodicMantra]

[icedaddy27]

when i watched this movie as young adloescent. i realized the concept of vegeterianism was literaly counterintuitive.

[DewiSaffrie]

it reminds me of all the memories i have. <3

[JadwiszczokZaneta]

So romantic <3!

[cargill55]

i love the cp70 piano god makes the song stand out

[hurricane1433]

[poolsharkwally]

[mpooleo]

@poolsharkwally no he just know how to appreciate good music now screw off and listen to justin beiber w/ ur friend

[Eemeelii]

@poolsharkwally omg i think your parents should forbid you to get access to a pc you moron just because someone is gay, black or something else...

thats no fault, last time someone thought like you was the reason for WW II

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

@Eemeelii Agreed, but where is my baby? lots of Hugs and kiss are due.

[AlienZaneta]

Amazing song <3!

[cablond100]

[24whatevergirl]

[teeger66]

@24whatevergirl Me too!

[SHE2048896]

Just remember that our creator is not vengeful, it is people that are

[kryptonianpowers]

That little cub in the studio is ADORABLE!

[breemystic]

On that last comment I don't mean people that think Elton is going to hell because he's gay, but I mean people who hate Elton because he's gay and use the Bible as a reason to hate.

Check this verse out:

1 John 3:15

Anyone who hates another brother or sister is really a murderer at heart. And you know that murderers don’t have eternal life within them.

there's also 1 John 4:20 you should check out too that says you're a liar if you hate

and I believe lying and murder is a sin, is it not?

[breemystic]

If the Christian God, that not everyone believes in, has enmity for gays that's one thing.

But for Christians, there are plenty of verses at least 6 that tell you that if you exhibit enmity you are a murderer. And the Bible says to love your neighbor and not judge since if we are going by the whole Bible, All Have Sinned and Come Short of the Glory of God.

Keep that in mind when you judge.

[LllDawnlll]

Dear Elton, I love you, Love, Me.

[LiiSSaoHo]

I love it *____*

King of Lions! *___*

[Plueschaeffchen]

Great <3!

[orca583]

lol wat ever you copied it from is rubbish it skipped >.> and god won't judge him no diff from any1 else since its ur your life ur choices aslong as u dnt do wrong by others shud be all good ^^

[Dusto22]

Fantastic movie with a fantastic soundtrack to go with it.

[bobbyzox]

bet ur kids favoritest film will be the lion king q:o)

[nomester7]

Ok, I'm against gays and I believe in God, but would it KILL us to just put our differences aside about society and religion and appreciate beautiful music??

Thank you and have a nice day.

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

@nomester7 Will said about music, as far believer in God and enmity of Gays are concern, it is dabatable!

[clayderman1980]

nice

[Forbidaxe]

God doesn't exist, the idea is just an imaginary friend, looney hospital you go!

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

@Forbidaxe God may not exist, but true friends do exist, one just have to look for them.

[EPICsliceOFcake]

@AslansButterfly Oh the irony!

[xDrWeilx]

beautiful, elton, but... ironically, circle of life doesn't work on gay people.

[breemystic]

@xDrWeilx Oddly enough the circle of life reproductively, doesn't work for sterile or barren heterosexual couples either.

[katharinamiri]

this is just one amazing song..........loved it all along...since i ever watched lion king!

[7youngstar]

that time there were real singers, there is in our generation no longer at. only commercially exploited ephemera less talented youth.

[jandj094]

This was played at my auntie's funeral this day last year. R.I.P Auntie Jackie♥.

[fangopango]

ok guys this film is THE BEST disney film ever

seriously it was perfect

and IMO even more perfect that beauty and the beast

its an emotional ride that i think is adultish yet childish too

brilliant

and the sequels are some of the best ever

:)

[MegaAstroFan18]

@fangopango I'm more partial to Hunchback of Notre Dame, Mulan and Tarzan.

[fangopango]

@MegaAstroFan18 i never watched HoND

but i watched the other 2

theyre brilliant

but lion king will always be the best

i prefer lion king 2

but,,,

most people prefer1

XP

[DOWN252]

Everytime I hear this song, I almost feel like I'm back in 1994!

[iCanadian14]

you forgot your piano at 2:43...

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

@darkenruite

Shedding tears, sometime, can be healthy! Or so I read.

[heratos34]

eres grande elthon , lo maximo

[drakenruiter]

I still can't watch this movie without crying

[Imthedragonreborn]

'the wheel of fortune' became 'the wheel of f-----'

[sophialillian]

this song really touches my privates

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

@sophialillian Pretty arousing it must be then ! lol

[Vikingbayicepower2]

Love the song. Love the man who is drawing. Love the lion. Love Elton John. And ofc im just in love with the movie !!!

[revendar42]

wtb Roy Disney back to rid of the new Disney fail

[ViperPrincess92]

Aww the lion cub in this video is adorable ^^

Great song too <3

[sakrotan111]

a very beautiful song



[AgentMichaelScarn27]

easily one of the greatest soundtracks ever created to one of the greatest Disney movies of all time

[KaZhKaZ]

Uuuuughh... Goose bumbs all over my body!

[CrazyLayan]

@KaZhKaZ

Oh my god! That happens to every time, too!

[silentsoliloquy82]

Beautiful song, great singer.

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

I going to get myself a lion-cub for this Christmas, they are lovely.

[ClassicalPieces]

@PRINCEOFHARARE Their very cute when their small but dont forget that that they will grow up and are ''wild'' anilmals!

[Polterguist]

In my opinion, this is only beaten by 5 Pink Floyd songs. 9.4/10; It's a masterpiece.

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

Very few singer does justice to piano as the touch them, elto john is certainly one of them.

[linlasj]

I have heard that when the animators heard this song on a tape they did a remake of the beginning of the movie. To show the circle of life.

[thyknight1]

24 must have missed the like it button cuz i who wouldnt like this song

[Spaniard1138]

I want a baby fucking lion in MY office.

[DEC0042]

@Spaniard1138 You want a lion that fucks babies in your office?

[Spaniard1138]

@DEC0042 THAT'S THE BEST KIND!!

[BeNotNormal]

This is literally the most beautiful song in the universe. And I mean that completely.

Ever since I saw The Lion King for the very first time, I've known that I wanted to have my very own lion, or at least be able to work very closely with them. They are such magnificent creatures, and are in fact more doglike than catlike, interestingly enough, with regards to their body language and other such behaviors.

[descenderofterresia]

You can actually take care of wild carnivorous animals. You just need to feed them small meats like chicken.Because if you start giving them big meat like beef, then sooner or later you'll wake up with your legs beside you.

[IkeMikeAndMustard]

Love this song!

[nigel5549]

i like this song and the cute lil lion at the biggining :D

[AmbitionZ2]

I dont care if he gay or not his music is beautiful

[TheCanadian53]

Great Song!

[kornrok1]

Which do you prefer better: Elton John's, or the intro to the Lion King's version?

It's really hard for me to decide which one. But I must say if the Lion Kings version was a little longer, I'd pick it. But this version got more lyrics.

[nyafiya]

@kornrok1 It's easy. I like the movie's version more, because I miss the yell at the beginning hereXDDDD

But both versions are so different and so beautiful, maybe there's no sense in comparing them:)

[kornrok1]

@nyafiya True. So true. The African mix was awesome. No question about it.

[BGMLV]

Can you raise a lion to be your friend.

[ColemanisSlipknot1]

Why would someone dislike this, because he is gay? It's his life, his choice, not yours.

[speakswahilidammit]

I keep returning to this wonderful song & rendition, because it transports me to my wondeful childhood in the bush in East Africa, where we kids lapped up our ayah's stories of animals who could speak, witchdoctors who went about by night as hyenas, still wearing crocodile-tooth necklaces as badges of office. Original, unique footage is on my video. I wish I could go back to then....

[aarox]

Whats wrong with 1:14? It sounds like he cuts out before he can finish.

[Troyster21]

@aarox Yeah the word 'fortune' is missing?!?!

[iEspy]

@aarox It seems to happen because of either a recording error, or an uploading problem. The audio track might be digitally "scratched", if you will. Like on a CD when it's scratched, the music does something similar. Does that make sense?

[ZOEYMine]

@aarox skipped a bar.. no biggy..

[cakesweetschocolate]

i love lion king toooo

[cakesweetschocolate]

oh lovely

[riogiw]

Adoro esta música e principalmente do cantor Elton John.

[NachiMeNachiMe]

who the fuck is this elton john kid

[erl49]

@NachiMeNachiMe If this wasn't so ignorant, I'd be busting a seam laughing. "Who is this Elton John kid...." okay, I've got to laugh. Too funny.

[MrJamaloriginal]

back in the years 2000 til 2003 the world was good great and now the world is just polluted and changed split by race and cultures

[caseyblue224]

Elton's gay - that matters? Isn't that his business? He's an extremely brilliant talent that we are so fortunate to have here and doing his amazing music. Doesn't that matter a whole lot more than his sexual (personal) preferences?

[marcor463]

i am a Christian man and i love this song i am form mexico

and i pray for Elton john i with with all my faith that one day he will sing to his crater

god wive you that talent

and he loves elton john more than any one that lives his comment cus he give his life for him

no comments about his personal life

[aquahockeydude]

dang hes just an amazing all around musician

[WindUpFun]

Geez guys, "live and let live" :\ 

[Mattgreenwald]

I love how most of the bashing comes from people who claim they're on god's side ect. but when it comes down to it. Isnt god the only one who will judge us in the end? You may not agree with the path Elton john chose but he will be judged one day. Not buy you but by god.

[tysonthepooper]

@Mattgreenwald well said mate, im catholic and though i dont agree with homosexuality, personally, i keep my opinion to myself. Elton is a brillant singer wether hes gay or not has nothing to do with his music. what sins elton, you and me and everyone esle has commited is only between that person and god, not god, that person and the public. Im a private person, im not the sort of person who preaches, i just have my own beliefs and i believe some ppl do more harm than good sometimes.

[PRINCEOFHARARE]

@AslansButterfly Well said!

[perception45]

elton is a ledge! dont dis the man - as i always say its all about the musice, you must have seen that you wanted to see this vid!

[Lok783]

Some people have nothing better to do but believe what others tells them or what people say about others, instead of finding the answers for themselves within themselves, truth and understanding comes from the soal and the heart, not from what you hear others say about others and how they live.

[maricoL013]
