I'm sorry to all the people who like this version but I am actually crying at what they did to it. The Lion King sountrack is a masterpiece and you shouldn't toy with masterpieces. It very rarely turns out well. Sorry Disney, I'll always be a fan of the classics, but please don't try to modernize something that is perfect.
This is a very interesting arrangement. I don't hate it at all, but I'm not in love with it. Idk if I like it but I have to give her (or whoever came up with this arrangement) kudos for creativity.
(Besides, Pumba's story was my favorite part of Hakuna Matata)
just to say, artists are taught to own the song and make it your own. i know this since im a singer too. all those who think that she ruined the song can say that, but its just an artist doing what they do.
dear god this is horribile!!! lion king is THE disney classic and she screwed with it. freaken disney stares think they can mes with songs like that. my god she added so much crap! freaken debby ryan go back to the hole you came from. this is stupid...
i understand that this song is sung in character and that makes singing it difficult but you know what that means...DONT SING IT!!!!!! this is the most unimpressive rendition i've ever heard! she doesn't have a bad voice but leave the classics, like this song, ALONE!!!!
To all the people saying that she sings like crap, this is the only song I make it completely 100% through without skipping to the next song or fast-forwarding to a better part.* All parts of this song are better parts, and I truly think Debby is one of the better singers, and definitely one of the most natural-sounding ones, on the album.
*Truth be told, I CAN make it though "If I Never Knew You," but most of the time I choose not to.
@MandyPandy1652 This isnet meant to be anything like the original, shes re-did it all and used her own music background and everything. The only thing thats she used from the original was the backup singers and the phrase, its not meant to ruin, or even be a re-make of the original. Since hardly any of the lyrics are the same "/
I personally like the original much better. I normally always like the original best, but I like the remixes a lot too. I don't care for this one though... Nor the "Just Can't Wait to be King" song... two of my favorite songs messed up :/. Down thumb me if you wish! Just my opinion!
@sims2lover2001 Well for one thing her official verified twitter says its her official site, her official verified youtube says its official + Sorry, but have you seen the suite lifes intro? Its spelt Debby!
Erm... I love Debby. But the song, not so much. I DO think she has vocal potential... But I just don't like the song. Too much going on in the background, and she doesn't have many vocals. It's barely singing, in my opinion. I'm sorry... But I don't see why she's on the album. =\
But she needs to take singing lessons, also I don't get why she is on this album because she doesn't sing, she has not made a song yet. Sorry Debby but your a great actor :D
So, as I was browzing through youtube I discovered another brand new artist! Her name is Jennifer Shiver and she has a new song that really caught my attention, it's called livin' a lie and I thought it was really good also!
She can sing and act i love her she actually wrote me back twice and i spoke to her on the phone once and she really is a nice person too so whether you like her singing/acting or not don't hate her cause she is probably 1 of the nicest people i've ever talked to
o so she cant sing or act but yet over half of these are good comments about how GOOD/AMAZING she is and she has an acting career and might be starting a singing career so stop hating on her you dont even know her so you have no right to say that she cant act or sing
@TheJammer5 she can sing but she need lessons I LUV HER SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ECTTTTT,,,, MUCH :)
Why do all of u blame Disney Channel 4 having a star that does everything like singing,acting,dancing... I bet they all enjoy doing those things. Disney isn't forcing anyone,anything.
to be completely honest, i really don't like how debby did this song. i mean, the music's okay for the mood of the song, it's just debby's voice sounds kinda robotic and mechanical. =S
Personally I don't think Disney makes kids sing and dance and act but when they look for talent, they find kids who enjoy doing all of those things. Its not about Disney turning kids into machines but just finding kids who think they can do it all...and in some cases they can. Thats just my opinion on the topic.
The first time I heard this preview, I thought it was Demi! Demi can sing good, So if Debby sounds like Demi and DEMI sounds good, Then Debby ''Should'' sound good. my opinion!!!
Tbh i dont think this song is for her I think if she had a different song you would have heard more of what she can do she has a lovely voice but I wish she would have sung a more difficult song I really wanted to hear what she got but i love her rendetion :)
Are you deaf (nothing against deaf people, I adore them)???? Debby CAN sing. She's amazing, Taylor CAN'T. And 'the girl' has a name.Her voice is strong but this song, Hakuna Matata is a horrible song for Debby or any other singer, Debby rocks more in all of the other songs where she shows her true pitch, she has a great voice.
she can't! anyone can sing this song. and don't forget that this is recorded. i mean i went to a recording studio once and i didn't even recognize myself.! my voice sounded way better than always. anyone can sing with effects. !
LOVE HEER VOICE!!!!!!! demi and debby ar ethe only ones who can sing. tiffany thorton is 25, her voice is maturer. demi is 17 and debby is only 16. stop comparing, debby is amazing.
she sings perfect love you debby
