The Lion King - Circle of Life (French Musical Version)

[Poet2916]

The opening is so EPIC in this version...they used the African language still right? I'm never sure, is it Swahili?

[UncleSam116]

@Poet2916 no it's the african language you're hearing is zulu.

[SnowKitzMuhahaha]

@heathersvancara Take American English vs. British English, for example. They're the same words, but used differently. When Brits say "Torch," they mean, "Flashlight," to Americans. We Americans say, "Cookie," they say, "Biscuts." Different accents, different meanings, different surroundings; saying they're the same could actually be offensive.

So yeah, I suppose Canadian French and France's French are much different, though I wouldn't be able to have a say, since I don't speak French. :3

I think that this is the best version of 'The Circle of Life'- and all of its variations- that exists. The Canadian one has a build to it that neither the version from France nor the American one has, and is about a full minute longer than either of those. Thus, I find it to be much more moving, too. Thank you so much for posting this.

[remy1106]

c'est la version de la comédie musicale, la version canadienne est identique à la version française

[Doum92]

I'm a French-Canadian and like most of my compatriots, I've never heard this before. We grew up with the French version.

[itachimistress]

I love Circle of Life and He lives in You in every language...

[chowchow0603]

oula lol je préfére la version française^^

[ladyxogagaa]

oh My Fucking God!! That's canadian version, not europ. french version! please my people has nothing to do with this version xD Real french is the best "l'histoire de la vie" <3

[heathersvancara]

@ladyxogagaa lol idk why your comment made me chuckle XD

[heathersvancara]

@ladyxogagaa Are Canadian-French and French-French (lolll) different?

[MsMotownSoul]

@heathersvancara Yes, extremely different. That's why the French are offended by Canadian versions of anything. The basics are the same, but everything else is like "in left field."

[klizzard359]

Hamsterama: I'm not replying cause your post is 2 years old XD, but just to add my thoughts...I think in some languages, unlike English, lyrics aren't expected to rhyme/follow certain patterns. So, they can just take the original version and change the language. Others require tweaking to make the song work.

I could be wrong tho. Just my 2 cents.

[apalouse2]

il y a pas de version québecoise au québec s'est la même version quand france

[apalouse2]

there is no French-Canadian version of the movie

[tynechoco]

c'est pas la version canadienne c'est la version de la comédie musicale!!!

[xxSuzane]

Pretty ^^ i like japanese version too

[babyShari]

the only thing i understood was when she sincs the circle la vie

[BonusRoundTube]

this is really good but i think the zulu version is the best.

[simsim2009ajc]

Les paroles sont trop laides ! Ils aurait dus prendre celle du film, au lieu de traduire littéralement.

The lyrics are so ugly ! They should take the ones of the movie, because in the song of the musical, they literally traduce the English song.

[ZessoFury]

Je suis d'accord à 100%.

[ZessoFury]

Système de commentaire de merde...

Je répondais à simsim2009ajc !

Je préfère de loin la version du film !

(mais bon, chacun nos goûts ^^)

[hamsterama]

Thanks for posting this! It's great to get to hear the Circle of Life from the French version of the musical. Interesting that they did a brand new translation. The German version, on the other hand, uses the same lyrics as in the movie. Guess it all depends on the preferences of producers in the respective countries as to whether to do a brand new translation or not.

[CharlieFala]

At last I hear this whole song :D Very good version!

[RockOnMerr]

Dutch version is much better ^^!

[AnneBuus]

Uhuuu  of course!!! Hlland 4 eveerrr!!!
