Be Prepared(Broadway Version)

[YoshiAndKirby3996]

i think the hyenas voices r wickedly adorable!

[WilesNailsPower]

Those Hyenas sound like Meowth off of Pokemon

[TrapnestShinigami]

Um... one problem. Jeremy Irons is... well.. FUCKING Jeremy Irons

[legendarywerewolf206]

I'm SurrOUneded by idiots xD

[AnarkicLexx]

God...Jeremy Irons oozes a menace that I'm CONVINCED isn't even acting, it's fucking natural. This guy's good....he might even be fantastic...but I can't even tell because Jeremy Irons' version was a masterpiece that can't be duplicated.

[TheRukegg]

Thank you for doing this. Very well done and very necessary! 

[liveyoungdiefast91]

It's cool, but the lack of Jeremy Irons kinda messes it up. :(

[sonicx30001]

i like the newer version better

[jagabor2000]

@sonicx30001 What newer version?

[sonicx30001]

@jagabor2000 click be prepared live thats the newer version

[yungbludofny]

@sonicx30001 where can i find it?

[noahdanielg]

Jeremy Iron's version is better

[CrazyClara101]

The Broadway version is MUCH better.

[brndurham]

I should realy audition for scar in the broadway version when I'm older.

[arceustonu]

I like this but...the movie version was better. This does not have the energy the movie's version had.

[MarioSonicBoys]

3:02 to 3:13 are my most favorite parts.

[Hrwatica28]

Its not fair. :(((

Im from Croatia and the nearest musical is in London. :((((

[gr1mpillmag3]

The guy singing as Scar sounds more like Invader Zim -.-

[Nynke21]

Hmm i prefer Jeremy iron...

[melmo716]

were dancing to this for my spring dance concert its really strange!

[therealcritic28]

@MrFlibiddyJib

This guy did a damn brilliant job considering how difficult his job was compared to Irons'. He obviously wasn't concentrating on the vocal characterization as much as Irons-- he had to perform this live. MANY times. His visual presentation of the character would have made up for anything lacking in the vocal department, so you shouldn't judge an actor that was meant to be SEEN if you've only heard them. Irons, of course, was an amazing Scar, but he had a cartoon acting for him.

[DarthJones55]

UGH! Scar's voice is horrible.

[slumusic13]

i should be one of the hayenas in breaodway

[slumusic13]

i should go to the broadway one when i get older

[auramaster312]

im no sheep but this is baaad

[thelionkinglover56]

the end of this songs gives me the chills

[princessofdarkness29]

scar is a bit of an asshole.

[goniloc]

Ugh. Hell no

[paigethehedgehog]

my unforgetable memory is when i saw the lion king on broadway

[ChromaAurora]

Heh, I'd like to see if the hyenas actually goosestep in the musical- pissing off several Germans and Austrians in the process. I only say this to see if they caught on to the Nazi symbolism.

I don't like this Scar's voice. He tries, but it simply isn't as powerful or commanding as Jeremy Irons and (Jim Cummings)

[profmalicious]

Jeez, American Broadway really screwed the pooch here. He sounds like Eric Idle on Green Gold!

[xXxGothicKittenxXx]

What I like about this version is that I actually understand what they are saying, sometimes I couldn't catch some of what Scar says in the movie.

[Gaarachu355]

at 2:45 - 2:53 what are the hayena's saying? i cant understand

[jagabor2000]

@Gaarachu355 "We'll have food, Lots of food, We repeat, endless meat

[mip903]

poor shenzi....terrible voice...same with banzi...

[mip903]

i wish my school did this play! i would be perfect for simba! grownup and kid!

[GoMidoriIsCool]

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO SHENZI'S VOICE!?!?

[JonXofXtheXDead]

Jeremy Irons' Scar sounds sinister and malevolent.

This guy sounds more conniving than anything else. Doesn't really induce as much of an emotional response.

[BatmanFan777]

funny, when I saw it, I think I got a different actor for Scar, the guy I got was intense, and he did an evil laugh at the end of the song...

[jkuy12345]

lame and un cool i like the old version better booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[LilM0]

Jeremy Irons, FTW.

[cathyybella]

sucks

[nellytheninkynonk]

Scar;s voice is great but the hyenas? Ew, awful.

[abru0610]

The way that Scar laughs, he sounds like an evil Santa Claus.

[MOKSize]

@abru0610

Jaja¡¡¡you have right

[reckittable]

Yea.. Original is better, but this is good too..

2:05 to 2:12 sound cool with the marching snare drum pattern..

[MrPiSquared]

Wow, this is really good, and I think you did a good job with the synching. As for the comment about the singer sounding too British, I think that you'll find Jeremy Irons was British too, and I'm sure that we'll all agree that he did a wonderful job.

[fahmad27]

Ugh, I hate the hyenas' voices! They made my ears bleed. This guy is good but I like Jeremy Irons better.

[theginyuforce]

I AGREE

[hotwhire]

@fahmad27 The hyenas sound like Team rocket

[evilgalore]

@fahmad27 well Jeremy Irons just did the 1st 2 verses, until he screamed the line, you won't get a sniff without me, and broke his vocal cords, then Jim Cummings (ED) had to finish the song off for hin

[papershadow69]

@fahmad27 If this is what they sound like the whole time, I share your sentiment

They sound like the Chipmunks after 20 years of smoking

With the original, I truely believed that Jeremy Irons and Jim Cummings meant what they were singing. The voices still fit here, but I can still tell its acting.

[bruno270787]

Good

[NEWGallantguy94]

I saw this last night, it's cool, and I recommend those who hasn't seen it...well, too see it :P

[NEWGallantguy94]

well that is if you guys can afford those crazy tickets O_O

(no offense)

[MrsLovett112]

I wouldn't have minded this version if it hadn't been for the fact that Jeremy Irons was so kick-ass,. Good attempt at the lip-syncing, unfortunate that this song seems awkward :D

[Motsenschadt]

This guy's a bit too British for my taste-

and the weird jazzy ending was BS. But it's still a great vid and song.

[ChiyoiFTW]

Worst voice-sync ever.

But anyways, Broadway version is bad. The voice of Scarr is bad, nobody can be like Jeremy Irons.

[RiverNaiad]

He's good, but this guy can't beat Jeremy Iron's rough "growl-like" voice when he sings it. It's so much more powerful and scary. I compared both versions and the movie one gives me the chills.

[TigerzRlz]

u uploaded this on my birthday!!!

[6383Jman]

You can never compare anything to an animated movie or show.

[blackmaninvasion]

I love it. I was so upset when they took it out of LA

[NEWGallantguy94]

I like it, but as many of us, I like the original better

[iluvescar4ever]

I love it when Jeremy Irons did this. But this guy kinda kills this song nice vid though.

[mugara16]

i would pay to watch scar one more time

[humannature1993]

cool man!!!

[TheAPrincess]

Omg...Shenzi's voice still hasn't grown on me...

But this version is cool! I really want to see the Broadway T.T

[humannature1993]

hey i can help you

[DarthKingdom]

I agree with TheGirl. This guy is good, but Irons is better. This guy makes Scar sound more narsissistic than he already was (and that's saying something).

But as for the vid itself, nice job with the lipsync!

[TheGirlWhoDubs98]

I think Jeremy Irons did a better job as Scar. When this person (I have no idea who it is!) does it, he sings to much. Scar sort of yells some of the lines, not sings. And his voice to needs to be... I don't know.. scratchier? when he says "You won't get a sniff without me!" But, overall, this person did a good job. =)

[jagabor2000]

Yeah, I agree. It's John Vickery, btw

[Flasa]

@TheGirlWhoDubs98 Totally agreed. Jeremy Irons did a magnificent job voicing Scar, making him one of the best, if not THE best, Disney villain. And I think this John Vickery didn't quite show Scar's personality as well as Jeremy Irons.

[Flasa]

By the way, Shenzi's and Banzai's voices totally suck.

[FrankTheShyGuy]

@TheGirlWhoDubs98 Scratchier, AND deeper.

[crawlfan]

@TheGirlWhoDubs98 He sings more because this was a stage production. It works better in theatre than it does in a movie, trust me.

[ProdigyStepper]

@TheGirlWhoDubs98 scratchier? i think you mean more low and creepy

[JamieBuckleyFilms]

@TheGirlWhoDubs98 I agree, but Jeremy Irons also lost his voice after "You won't get a sniff without me"; the actor who voiced Ed actually had to finish the recording for him. Considering they do at least two performances a day, I can't blame the actor for not yelling the lines as much. ;)

[ProdigyStepper]

@TheGirlWhoDubs98 the only part of this version that i would like to have in the movie version is the music at the end

[therealcritic28]

If you think about it, though, Irons had a much easier job than Vickery. Vickery would have had to keep up the standard you hear in this video LIVE, concentrating on not just vocally but VISUALLY portraying Scar as well.That's much more than Irons would have to do standing in a recording booth (not to say his job would be easy, putting all the character's energy into his vocal performance). So, because he was juggling a bigger plateful, Vickery deserves better than merely, "He did a good job".

[Thehouseoffail]

@TheGirlWhoDubs98 John's voice needs more baritone. I love how pretentious he sounds, but Jeremy's version is more like the honey that caught the fly: enticing, ominous, and deliciously evil.

[TheLizzard0]

I play Scar in our High School Play.

[jagabor2000]

You lucky bastard! How's the costume?

[ono69]

TheLizzard0, that is awesome! How's your singing voice? Remember this: be PREPARED!

[thebluebeast109]

i hink it was awsome good job :)

[ballet7e]

I play shenzi in my dance studio and I love it

[iHeartEmmett]

I LOVVVVVE this version.

seeing it on stage is even better.

the dance sequence with the hyenas is really cool.

and of course, Scar's just amazing.

[Lucasn1fan]

i like this versionn but i still like more the original. more evil=D

[teniguafez]

i honestly think the movie version sounds more evil.

[BonanzaObsessor]

Definetley. Between the different music and voice, well, the original sounds better. This version, however, is great, but nothing can beat the movie.

[N3XxEs]

@teniguafez indeed...

[samuel7897]

i love the start where scar talks

[emmyvonkaulitz]

There was a dance part right in the middle after, "You wont get a sniff without me" in the actual show that I wish they would've kept in the recording on the CD..

[jagabor2000]

Me too. It's on the other soundtracks, though. I wonder why not the english one...

[emmyvonkaulitz]

Really? Wierd! That was my fav. part...

[yomomma8acookie]

does he say king of the nile or king of denile

[jagabor2000]

It's "Decades of denial."

[vampirepenguin1224]

*bows down*

I LOVE IT!

Marching Hyenas=EPIC!

[Heyabong]

2:44 = best part of the video!

[NevermaindakaNeva]

Thank u! It's really great. As 4 me, Id like broaday ver. more than Disney.

*Oh, sorry, sorry disney's fans*

[hani273nhk]

great video! you done great!

[jagabor2000]

Thanks for the comment, much appreciated. And no, Banzai is a male in the Musical. The voice is just a bit high, I think. Rafiki's a girl, though.

[samuel7897]

yeh Rafiki's a girl.

[jagabor2000]

I know. I saw it.

[KiarasMate]

Well, since I haven't seen the Broadway version of TLK, this is the next best thing. hehe. ^^ Very nice job yet again Jaga. ^^ Very enjoyable AMV. ^^ 5/5 and fav add as always. Keep up the fantastic work my friend. ^^

P.S: Is Banzai a female in the Musical or what? lol. :)
