    So happy for Janique. Starting in the ensemble, and then playing Nala. She’s such a big inspiration

    Endless chills with this number, no matter which Nala sings it.

    Wow. She slayed this. Although it feels a bit incomplete without the choral background, but she was so good I’m not even mad haha.

      No disrespect to Beyonce but the Broadway show itself just had that extra depth when a majority of the cast had natural African accents. I would love to relive that with the movie cast.

    I used to listen to The Lion King on Broadway religiously on Spotify. This was my favorite song next to He Lives In You. To see this recording is just.. everything.

    I adore the lion king. I went to go see it on broadway as a child and I remember how amazing it made me feel emotionally. My jt school did it last year for their musical. And I was on makeup. And ALL I WOULD SING WOULD BE THIS SONG ! And back stage, this was such a bop

    I finally got to see the show on Wednesday after wanting to see it since I was a child. Janique was unbelievable. This song had every hair on my body standing on end, so powerful and so beautiful. What an incredible voice.

  • @egiptomusic
    @egiptomusic 6 лет назад +111

    Love her voice, but think that the choir that stand's behind is the real heart of the song, without it, looses his power

    • @cdc8875
      @cdc8875 5 лет назад +15

      I agree.....she needs her "pride" singing in the background. They're part of who she is no matter where she goes.

    • @xBlacksStarx
      @xBlacksStarx 3 года назад +8

      Yea I agree, what made the song haunting was the chorus of lionesses repeating "pride...land..." As though convincing her to stay, and her singing loudly that she had to, and them singing in support of her when she showed she had the strength for them.

  • @graceward6105

    Shadowland
    The leaves have fallen
    This shadowed land
    This was our home
    The river's dry
    The ground has broken
    So I must go
    Now I must go

    Tear-stained
    Dry land
    Take this
    NALA:
    Take this prayer
    LIONESSES:
    With you
    NALA:
    What lies out there
    LIONESSES:
    Fatshe leso

    Let this prayer be your guide
    Though it may take you so far away
    Always remember your pride

  • @Shumbalion
    @Shumbalion Год назад +1

    That’s a really nice performance of the song, but I really notice when the background singers are missing. The reinforcement effect is just gone making it feel a lot lighter. While that may be the effect desired, I would have loved to hear this with the reinforcement also. If not by additional background vocalists then by a follow in the instrumental of a similar tone. I may sound picky, but it’s the nature of this song. The lioness is leaving her pride to find help, so for a pure solo performance it breaks the nature as lions are together and splitting. To put it simply - who is she singing to? The backing singers in the original, relate to the pride and leaving them behind, it’s a group decision and the emotional situation is more understandable. So a follow up in the instrumental would have been a good option if you wanted a clear solo vocal. Either way, simply stunning vocals and a nice performance. The camera work is also quite well done.
