Today is my Dad’s 19th death anniversary. I was 14. Some of my fondest memories was riding around with him in the car listening and singing along to the oldies station. And man, my Dad could belt this song out, putting Jay Siegel himself to shame. Love you, Dad. I know you’re singing your heart out wherever you are! 💜
Aww I am sorry for u
Whatever the thing is, it being associated with someone you love always makes it beautiful.

What does a wimoweh mean?
"Wimoweh" is a mishearing of the original song's chorus of "Uyimbube"… Zulu for, 'You are a lion'. The song we know as "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" or as "Wimoweh" was was written in the 1920s by Solomon Linda a South African singer of Zulu origin. The name of the song was "Mbube" which is Zulu for "lion"
Alex Dylan this is literally the only comment on here that is not a meme. God bless
The whole time people were afraid of the lions, turns out they're the lions. Damn thats deep.
@Brandon Quinn Who asked people to write memes? I find it disrespectful to the Song.

I heard a horror story about this:
A hunter got lost in the woods and found an empty cabin. With nowhere else to go and the night approaches,he decided to stay for the night. As he was about to sleep,he noticed dozens of creepy paintings staring menacingly at him. Tho creeped out,he ignored it and eventually got to sleep. When he woke up the next morning,he noticed there were no paintings in the cabin; just dozens of windows.

Fun Fact: "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" is slang for "The Evil King is Dead."

@@funnyguythe285th It's true. This song was originally an African lullaby that mothers sang to their kids to assure them they were safe from a once powerful tyrannical king that ruled with an iron fist after he died. They also started singing it again after Hitler died.
@f r No. This is an ancient African lullaby sang when a tyrannical African king died, and was sang even more loudly when Hitler was killed.
