Oh, look at that. I got goosebumbs. Funny, since I rarely get those from listening to a song. I think that should be enough to tell you how much I adore this version ;) The English version has more powerful voices but there's just this wonderful load of emotion here that really gets to me, I can't explain it.
I find it so confusing. For normal pop songs I normally like English the best. When it comes to Opera Italian or French is the best. But when it comes to musical or synchromisation of animated movies my favorite always are German and Japanese. :) The text ist far better in my opinion and also it sounds the best in these languages. (My own opinion.)
Thanks for uploading this. I didn't know this version so far. Beautiful song in any language. :)
Sorry, I coudln't tell if the things she sang at the very end were actual Japanese or chanting. If anyone wants the translation, I'll post that too. :)
Towards the end, 3:52, she says "giza buyabo, giza buyabo", something in Japanese, then "beso bo." Beso bo is what she says at the very end as well. It means my people, and giza buyabo means I will return, in an African dialect.
Very Epic!!!! Nice Touch On Small Simba To Older Simba!!!!

I think the Japanese version has some of the most emotion out of all the versions I've heard.

Carry that pride,

Looks and sounds right to me.
