The Lion King - Be Prepared

[griffindorlover7303]

"great idea who needs a king? NO KING, NO KING LA LA LA LA LA LA"

[thelilmangowhocould]

I love his voice

[griffindorlover7303]

I love this!!!M😄😄😄

[dumdadeee]

Is it wrong that Scar was my favorite character??

[purplefury101]

@dumdadeee no my fav was simba but the little 1 of course

[1stbrasscaptain]

The latter half of this song was done by Jim Cummings, he's an amazing voice actor. He started singing at this part, "You won't get a sniff without me!" He has quite the legacy in regards to voice acting...do yourself a favor and look him up, you shant be disappointed. ^_^

[fonny1782]

The voice of Jeremy Irons, flawless!

[Chayira1]

@SimiMckern Wait I just checked, and that ain't right! Jeremy Irons had the voice of Scar!

The guy who played Snape was Alan Rickman!

[Chayira1]

@SimiMckern Seriously??? They used the guy who played Snape to this???

[piperrox13]

BESTsong of the movie. :)

[MythicalGryphon1]

"Be king undisputed, respected saluted, and seen for the WONDER I am."

The best part of the song imo.

[209cgrant]

Most people never analyse the lyrics within a Disney Song, for example in this song I really empathise with Scar's character: Decades of denial (We repeat) Is simply why I'll (Endless meat) Be king undisputed (Aaaaaaah!) Respected, saluted (Aaaaaaah!) And seen for the wonder I am (Aaaaaaah!) Deep stuff man.

[Joshsgirlxx]

Jeremy Irons did such a brilliant job in this film.

[MissStinkyStar]

perhaps next time Scar will keep his campaign promises?

[Chayira1]

Nick Pitera sings it better.

[MissStinkyStar]

I always look forward to the song from the baddy,. Plus some great lyrics in this song!

[Chayira1]

Does not Scar's voice sound kinda like Snape from Harry Potter?

[SimiMckern]

@Chayira1 Hehe, that's because it's the same actor. Found that out through my younger sister.

[jesebud]

omg, the beginning is soo different in the movie!!

and his real name is Taka

[superaider1000]

What? No Nazi goose-stepping noise at 2:25? :P

[fredisstillalive]

it would be intresting to find out what the hyenas are saying durring 2:59 - 3:06 .... does anyone have a clue?

[BlazingDragons7]

@fredisstillalive its 'we'll have food, lots of food, we repeat, endless meat!' :)

[fredisstillalive]

@BlazingDragons7 Thanks :) thats kinda stupid following someone because they want food .... but its a good way to make the hyenas bad guys but then they can turn into victims at the end .... im not making sense anymore .... oh well :P

[TLSoulDude]

HEIL SCAR!

[foreverwolf9976]

In the beginning, for everyone who wanted to know, Scar is saying: "I never thought hyenas essential, they're crude and unspeakably plain. But maybe they've a tinie glimmer of potential, if allied to my vision and brain.

[joseluvs69]

@foreverwolf9976 Thank You

[Lindenbum]

i love scar hes my favoret lion in lion king

[screenager01]

I love this song sooooo much ! This english version is really goood, but I still like the finnish version best :) the voice of Scar is more evil and got more feeling in finnish dub.. Well, I'm from Finland, and of course I've seen this film in finnish more and got used to it when I was a little child :D But I like both, the finnish and englis version of this song!

[DRAGOOOOOOOONNNNNNNN]

Im not good in english, what Scar say at the beggininig?

[mespritLover481]

5 people aren't prepared, sad

[mercury46]

I don't understand everything he's saying in 0:12-0:32 please help!

[mangalover68]

@mercury46 He says: "I never thought hyenas essential. They're crude an unspeakably lame. But maybe they have a teeny amount of potential, if aligned to my vision and brain."

[Schokowurfel]

@mangalover68 Actually it's "unspeakably plain".

[sonicx30001]

@mangalover68 No He's says "I never hyenas essential. They're crude and unspeakily plain but maybe they've a glimmer of potential if aligned to my vison and brain

[DaLilMex]

I never knew that Jeremy Irons injured his vocal cord singing this song.

[mannardme]

Such a great song to be sung by the villain in this film! Scar is by far my favorite Disney villain ever!

[tristandelpungo]

Why do I get the feeling that a Legend of Zelda villain could sing this song perfectly, even though Zelda doesn't use voice actors?

[Jacno77]

scars real names bill

[MythicalGryphon1]

@Jacno77 And Mufasa's real name is Ben.

[rexana]

No king, no king, la-la-la-la-la-la!

:D

[dominikana2o11]

scar was a beast! you gotta admit

[destinyislandgirl]

Interesting fact, Jeremy Irons (the person who voiced Scar) sang this song but after "You won't get a sniff without me!" at 2:47 The singer after that is Jim Cummings, famous voice actor of Whinne the Pooh, Tigger, Pete, Scar (in Kingdom Hearts 2) and Ray from Princess and the Frog.

[missmegz1993]

"Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared, Be prepared!" one of my favorite lines of the song. :D

[missmegz1993]

The best movie, with the best songs. :)

[dannywolfpero]

I can't help but repeat from 2:25 and after.

[Artemisia729]

why do the villans always have the best songs?

[pridelandsqueen77]

@Artemisia729 the animator say it because they're more fun, less things hold them back than a hero

[rancidfan39]

lol scar was such a stereotypical villian but he was nonetheless a very good example of a cliche

[LemonPledge01]

Could you imagine Voldermort singing/saying something like this when he was planning to kill Harry? :L

[DRAGOOOOOOOONNNNNNNN]

@LemonPledge01 I dont know where will be singing it, but, the followers of him will be the hitler reference, ya know, like the Hyenas, and instead of the Moon, it will be de Dark Mark

[piperrox13]

@LemonPledge01 LOL, haven't you heard that version!? XD

"No minister, no minister, la la la la laa la!" XD

[Cassimfan]

@LemonPledge01 YES!

[Papacoification]

"It's great that we'll soon be connected

With a king who'll be all-time adored"

Every time I hear the choir singing this, it gives me goosebumps and I suddenly wish to murder de king...

[Alexthegreat8907]

I'm 22, saw this movie in theaters when it first came out, and I love this movie as an adult more than I ever did as a child. It seems to resonate more, now that I can pick up on all the ironies and undertones.

[03bgood]

Best Disney villain song ever.

[giannicasserini]

scar has the most awesome voice

[Eidolin]

i love all disney movies..but i think lion king is one of the best. i only got excited about reading hamlet in high school because i hear it had some similar themes with lion king...too bad it wasn't half as entertaining...i also enjoy beauty and the beast and i guess all the princess movies. disney is so damn good!

[Ghostlyghostgamer]

Jafar, Ursula, Gaston, Dr. Facilier and Mother Gothel all disliked because their villain songs couldn't hold a candle to Scar's. Frollo didn't get involved.

[2devmoran]

man the best disney song in disney history

[2devmoran]

man they must have had fun doing this song i know i would have fun love this amazing movie

[zombiekittyonwheels1]

no king no king la la la la la la

IDIOTS THERE WILL BE A KING!!!!

........... uh but you just said

I WILL BE KING!!!!!

ha ha gotta love it xxxxx

[LAYADR]

I like the beat to this song :-D

[emmyfromearthh]

Be prepared? for what?

The death of the king..

Why is he sick?

haha

[CybderDude93]

Yeah! Be prepared! We'll be prepared. Prepared for what?

Hahaha, I love the Hyenas ...they are the best :D

[ThatSeraphimGuy]

This song never fails to give me goosebumps...

[MustangGTthebest]

Jeremy Irons did so well as Scar

[ninjaman64t]

Scar...evil..plotting...epic singing voice....



[RealValkyrieCain]

@DamarisRhoda haha! It's the best book ever! have you read Death Bringer?! :D

[alexzinger123]

5 people arnt prepared

[Julianne1113]

i remember singing this song when i didnt understand half of the words' meanings lol

[LiamDaLemon]

0:50 is the best part for me - so evil

[LiamDaLemon]

@LiamDaLemon Actually no - it gives the song a rancid and rotten element

[mz1moneygramz]

out of all disney classic movies lion king had the best songs

[salatusam]

i love lion king i can't belive it's going in 3-d !

[Mrdiablorox]

5 people just weren't prepared. 

[7MasterJedi7]

2:26.. isn't that off Silence of the Lambs?

[MsYakkina]

@7MasterJedi7 lol, no I think Scar says: "With Pro Qoe" Yes it is quite simular to what they say in SOFL is "Quid Pro Qoe" it means the same thing though, I think. :)

[SilverBellPros]

@Jrendelman It is said in separate novels that he tried when he was a cub to hurt Mufasa with a bufalo. Instead, the bufalo gave him the scar. (I might be wrong however since i didnt read the novels myself, but its what ive heard in many places.)

[BeautifiedDiversity]

I love the intro for this. I sorta wish they had kept that in the movie :<

[MichaelSar12IsBack]

Is it just me, or does the soundtrack version sound a lot less intimidating than the movie version (specifically the hyena solo parts)?

[moonlightsonata18]

Scar got his scar from his and mufasas dad when he was a cub

[xtr0gd0rx]

@moonlightsonata18 haha scars aren't genetic...

[emurqq]

@xtr0gd0rx oh my god he meant scar's father was the one who swiped him aka gave him the scar

[moonlightsonata18]

@xtr0gd0rx uh no i mean his dad clawed scar in the eye and thats how he got his scar ._.

[RealValkyrieCain]

@joekido1990 haha okay, thanks! :)

[TFnemesis95]

Scar got his scar probably from mufasa or Chuck Norris

[Jrendelman]

How did "Scar" get his scar? I feel like it has something to do with Mufasa....

[TFnemesis95]

I would ave love to see some bounty Hunter make a head shot on simba while he stands on pride rock

[TFnemesis95]

In this movie how come the hyenas didn't just kill scar after he killed mufasa and make themselves kings or what ever lol

[RealValkyrieCain]

erm... just one question... what was scar called before he actually got the scar?

[joekido1990]

@RealValkyrieCain In some side novels, his name is said to be "Taka". I believe it means "dirt" or "trash", but it's been a while since I saw it. X_X

[TheOneCatastrophe]

@joekido1990 yea name was taka

[oOxKatieKatxOo]

@joekido1990 It means 'want'. :b

[piperrox13]

@joekido1990 Heheheh, Taka is Japanese for hawk. :)

[EonStrife]

@joekido1990 lionking.wikia.com/wiki/Scar

[joekido1990]

@EonStrife Not sure why you replied directly to me... XD

But I will reply in turn so others can see the good link.

[rootiful]

@RealValkyrieCain Kevin

[sersotqui]

@RealValkyrieCain scarless

[laarundark1]

@RealValkyrieCain noscar ;D

[TFnemesis95]

Anybody else notice how bad scar resembles Adolf Hitler I this movie

[Doubtess]

@TFnemesis95 I love you, man, I love you.

[ChillinandKillin86]

I imagine what David Attenborough would think if he saw this happening :D

[Bladecrossexe]

This song is like the ultimate riot starter.

[MrJoeMontano]

Is it me, or did it seem like the creators of this movie made Scar to be some-what like Adolf Hitler?

[CallieAnn95]

"My words are a matter of pride."

I see what you did there.

[05tonytin]

This was my favorite song in the movie even when i was shorty

[TheDarklayla]

just listen to teacher ;)

[mnjdog322]

The beginning is a prolonged burp :) lol

[doubleAJproductions]

4 people aren't prepared.

[Kirstendina]

I love it!!!

[godzilla964]

Why the hell did the nostalgia critic use any Scar references in his "dungeons and dragons" review?! I, and many others could think of plenty.

[MisterSmiley91]

@godzilla964 Did you mean "didn't"? If so, I wonder why as well.

[lacosarosa007]

mufasa ........... uuuuuuuu

[Seanschemmelfan]

I was actually singing to this song! I love it!

[hornymaneee]

Best villain song EVAR!!!

[blacktigress85]

The three who disliked this were his loyal hyenas- Shenzi, Banzai and Ed

[IDKJustRandomStuff]

@blacktigress85 Are you sure, dont you have to be smart to use a computer?

[blacktigress85]

@IDKJustRandomStuff

Its called a joke douchelord, why don't you give it a try once in while.

[MrMaorn]

@blacktigress85 Now it's five. Timon and Pumbaa hit the wrong button.

[rootiful]

@blacktigress85 fuck you whoopie goldberg was a good guy.

[GBAura]

@blacktigress85 Actually, it may be Simba, Mufasa, Timon, Pumbaa and Zazu.  Sorry if the joke is old.

[MuscleCut]

@GBAura xD

[mizukisc]

Hannah Montana: i know where i stand, i know who i am

Taka/Scar: meticulous planning, tenacity spanning

disney made me open a dictionary, and now, they've made everything worse. TLK taught me to laugh, to cry, and mostly, they flat out taught me words. Now, it's way too simple. Disney needs to get their heads on straight. WE WANT MORE MOVIES LIKE THIS! why can't disney make a LK4 or sequels to any more of the older movies? We want you back, Disney. You've showed you can change, now change back

[discretionagirl]

Et a force d'écouter des chansons en anglais la rentrè sannonce avec une bonne moyenne en anglais ^^

[scifisoren]

"I will be king!" always made me uncomfortable a bit.

Very nice Mr. Irons.

[Princess9178]

hut ab =)))))

[Seanschemmelfan]

3 people weren't prepared.

[princelovesme94]

lol im signing this song and my dog looks scared, bless him! n'awwh

[LynndeeMeldo2011]

This part always scared me lol

[CleoShy]

I love how the beginning just sounds like a prolonged burp...

[CleoShy]

@CleoShy and the end too! lol

[guyver93]

@CleoShy lol wat

[CleoShy]

@guyver93 lol like the first 10 secs... just sounds like a burp to me

[hornymaneee]

Right when that cool drum beat starts it's already awesome

[reddeadspartan]

ill be prepared...prepared for what

scar:for the death of king

y is he sick

scar:no fool were gonna kill him

good who needs a king no king no king la la la la la laa

scar fools there will be a king

but you said ur

lol best part

[revygam]

"Either as WET as a warthog's backside..." Hmm. That's Pumbaa alright. o3o

[Swinger2006]

@fullmetalsaiyan You have a bad sense of judgement.

[Swinger2006]

This song should be remade by a heavy rock band like Disturbed or Godsmack.

[BibleJoker2Face]

I read that Jeremy Irons threw out his voice when singing the line "You won't get a sniff without me," and was replaced by Jim Cummings for the rest of the song, but i can't tell the difference between their voices. (i think Alan Rickman would have also made a good Scar, or that he and Jeremy Irons could have switched roles to good effect, had Rickman been cast; but James Earl Jones was an excellent choice to play Mufasa and Jeremy Irons was perfectly cast as Scar). Classic Disney movie.

[slyrocks3]

Does anyone else think that Alan Rickman would've made a great Scar? lol That and the scene in "Help! I'm a Fish" with the Intelligence song reminds me of this. lol

[daPvta]

it's just me or everyone sees a girl in bikini at the center?

[invaiderzen]

@daPvta OH GEE THANKS. Now I may never be able to look at that picture the same again...

[Shandaro777Hit]

oh my God ! i feel the Evil in me is raising ! oh MY GOD !!!!!!!

[567COFFOREVER]

If only Disney make more of these movies. Lion King is the best Disney movie ever!! No matter what movies they come out with. Lion King will always be my favorite movie of all times.

[mozarttheraver123]

@567COFFOREVER Agreed*

[salyafruzsi]

Jeremy Irons is fantastic!!!

[MysticGirlRider881]

cool

[Maseh19965]

I like how we get an insight into Scar's thoughts before the beginning of the song. It gives the song more purpose and meaning. Also, even his thoughts are so deliciously evil!

[XMisunderstoodMollyX]

"im surrounded by idiots" scar says it right before this song starts :) best quote in the movie i need a shirt that says that hehe :)

[saharaxwolfie]

@XMisunderstoodMollyX I actually have a shirt that says that, from the Broadway show, hahaha. xD

[gvlaker9]

Absolutely EPIC.

[xJASONSMALLMOVIESx]

@TheDavul because the voices of the 3 hyenas were added in later!

what your hearing are the backup singers :)

[MyElite25]

best villian song ever

[SidonZeklar]

You are NOT PREPARED!!

[DIsturbios1234]

Mufasa, Simba and Nala all disliked the vid

[heyheymister]

DO, HUMM, DO DO, HUMM, DOO, HUUMM, DOO DOO, HUUMM!!!!!

[torysama]

3 dislikes? By the Hyenas I bet.

[shawnoso100]

doesn't the lion in the background look like a lady with a thong on showing her ass?

[Vampiresss8]

@i thought the same thing lol

[breezymc21]

Best villan song. EVER. 

[Mistyfeatherwarrior]

Really cool¡ One of my favorite Disney songs { villan song } along with my lullaby.

[MrSuperleobros]

The 3 hyeanas were not prepared and disliked the song.

[Brandisofthesand]

I love the three Hyenas xD especially ED

[tripplecherries21]

scar kicks ass :)

i played him in my third grade play...and im a girl XD
