Track for The Lion King Jr. The Musical, being put on by Clinton County Showcase on July 6-9, 2017. Auditions are May 20th. For details, contact Nick Mueth at nickmueth@gmail.com
I was never a principle role in the lion king, but listening to the soundtrack never ceases to make me cry with nostalgia. It brings me back to junior high rehearsals for this musical. I remember being like 12 and going through a rough time. This was the only thing that made me feel any better...
Ali Mosier was “Can you feel the love tonight” awkward? I’ve already played one character like Nala before, and I feel like im going to get cast as Nala, even though I want Scar. So, is that an awkward scene? I’ve already done awkward scenes with people, and I don’t want to again.
Minnesota Girls Life It honestly isn’t as awkward as I thought it would be! The most awkward part was when I tackle Simba when we first meet. Because I’m literally sitting on top of him :D
Ali Mosier how fun. Edit: I’m frustrated and sad, because once I got in for drama auditions, they said, “We’ve already pretty much decided who’s going to play Mufasa and Scar, so don’t get your hopes up.” And now, I’m sad. Edit 2: I got Rafiki! That’s a really fun role, actually. I’m ok with that.

I've fixed the lyrics it so it's word for word this version of the song just incase you need it.

Simba: Father! Mufasa: Simba you have forgotten me. Simba: No! How could I? Mufasa: You have forgotten who you are, and so have forgotten me. Look inside yourself Simba. You must take your place in the circle of life. Simba: How can I go back? I’m not who i used to be. Mufasa: Remember who you are. You are my son and the one true king Simba: No, wait! Don't leave me! Please don't leave me! Rafiki: Hey buh. What was that? The weather, most peculiar eh? Simba: Yeah, looks like the winds are changing. Rafiki: Ah, change is good. Simba: But it's not easy. I know what I have to do but it means facing my past. Ow! Sheesh what was that for? Rafiki: It doesn't mater. It's in the past! Simba: Yeah but it still hurts Rafiki: Oh yes the past can hurt, but the way I see it you can either run from it or you can learn from it. You see? so what are you going to do now? Simba: I’m going back. Rafiki: Good! Get out of here! ((Hela, hem mamela) on repeat) (He lives in you) Ah-e-o (He lives in me) Hi-ya hi-ya hi-oh (He watches over) He watches over (Everything we see) Hi-ya hi-ya hi-oh (Into the water) Into the water (Into the truth) Hi-ya hi-ya hi-oh (In your reflection) In your reflection He lives in you
I got rafiki in my summer play group and I love this song. Super happy that one of my really good friends got simba. Going to be a great summer with my friends!
I was Banzai and the way we did this song is for the second "he lives in you" chorus, we turned off all the lights and the ensemble had candles and Rafiki had a glow-up staff and it looked beautiful onstage.
I heard a bit of this song when picking up my son from rehearsal after school and it really pulled on my heartstrings. Sounds so much better with a bit of natural reverb though. Good luck to all you little animal's :-) x
This is definitely my favorite song in the whole show. I got sarabi so I don't have too many lines in the entire musical but I'm still greatful to be in the main cast
In my school I'm a lioness and lioness have to stand at the side and do ensemble in this and I love this song so much cause we all build up and belt out so loud he lives and everyone jumps it's so funny 😂

I remember that we were rehearsing and then rafiki just got a voice crack and all of the people doing it in my school (~90) just laughed. It sounded like ‘into the WATE-‘ it was great
Since we're doing roll call: I was an ensemble dancer in the 2015 Louisiana Premiere production with Stage Center. I covered the following tracks: Jungle Dancer (Just Can't Wait)/Wildebeest/Hyena/African Chorus
I did on accident and then I realized so I un disliked it and like I was so confused because I played Rafiki at my school and like this was my main song😂
my theatre company and im playing mufasa and rafiki (in different casts ofc) and we show in 2 days!! im so excited that i get to sing this and they live in you
enjoy it as much as possible take it from a high schooler im literally watching this as like a comfort song bc I miss my middle school production so much
Ok so I was Adult Simba and I had to run down the isles after rafiki tells me to go back and I remember waiting in the back for my cue to go back to the stage, absolutely having the time of my life to the rest of the song. Still my favorite show
Lyrics Ingonyama negwe namabala Ingonyama negwe namabala Night and the spirit of life calling Oh oh iyo Mamela Oh oh iyo And a voice, with the fear of a child answers Oh oh iyo Ayooooo mamela Oh oh iyo Ooh bucozuu ba coco ________ I’m too lazy to finish
playing rafiki & im lit so nervous. but i’m so excited because i, four years ago, was a hyena and dreamt of singing this song on stage!! update: a lot of people congratulated me and i had a very different image at school. many parents told me that i should be put in auditions for a broadway 💘💘

Same problem here, it's hard right ?
Sad. Isn’t Rafiki the first character to be onstage?
I’m Nala but like
This song is so good aaah
Ali Mosier was “Can you feel the love tonight” awkward? I’ve already played one character like Nala before, and I feel like im going to get cast as Nala, even though I want Scar. So, is that an awkward scene? I’ve already done awkward scenes with people, and I don’t want to again.
Minnesota Girls Life It honestly isn’t as awkward as I thought it would be! The most awkward part was when I tackle Simba when we first meet. Because I’m literally sitting on top of him :D
Ali Mosier how fun.
Edit: I’m frustrated and sad, because once I got in for drama auditions, they said, “We’ve already pretty much decided who’s going to play Mufasa and Scar, so don’t get your hopes up.” And now, I’m sad.
Edit 2: I got Rafiki! That’s a really fun role, actually. I’m ok with that.
Omg same but everyone who is in the play sings and dances to the all songs
Minnesota Girls Life I’m in Lion King and it’s not awkward at all but everywhere is different

I was Banzai and the way we did this song is for the second "he lives in you" chorus, we turned off all the lights and the ensemble had candles and Rafiki had a glow-up staff and it looked beautiful onstage.

It’s so hard as Mufasa to not sing during this song.
I am re-listening to this song. I used to be in the play. I was scar but still, this song makes me feel so nostalgic
I heard a bit of this song when picking up my son from rehearsal after school and it really pulled on my heartstrings. Sounds so much better with a bit of natural reverb though. Good luck to all you little animal's :-) x
I'm playing as Nala!
This song is just sooo😆 Amaziiinngg!!!
I'm Rafiki and this song is so hard to sing the " wait " and the " into the water into the truth in your reflection " make my voice crack

it is my favorite song
Good luck
I’m young Nala but I love this song so much!!! And I can sing it perfectly
OmG! Im listening to this...for the last time....its our last production day... :( i love this song~♥️♥️
I got a callback for Rafiki!
Edit: I got Shenzi which is also nice.
i miss playing this role so much.
this song will always hold have a place in my heart.
I remember that we were rehearsing and then rafiki just got a voice crack and all of the people doing it in my school (~90) just laughed. It sounded like ‘into the WATE-‘ it was great
Since we're doing roll call: I was an ensemble dancer in the 2015 Louisiana Premiere production with Stage Center. I covered the following tracks: Jungle Dancer (Just Can't Wait)/Wildebeest/Hyena/African Chorus
I wonder who disliked this?
I did on accident and then I realized so I un disliked it and like I was so confused because I played Rafiki at my school and like this was my main song😂
Some idiot that doesn't understand musical theater
jippy jip joe
Lion king is so special to my heart because it was my first show I did and it was on my birthday! I was Ed, but I would sing this everytime backstage
I am mufasa in the play and I’m just listening because I forgot my lines and the timing, wish me luck! 😂
I literally just finished this show like 3 days ago and I was Simba. I had so much fun as simba and this song is one of my favorites.
Best song by far
13 wicked hyenas disliked this
BTW I'm on my Mum's phone :-)
Best song
my theatre company and im playing mufasa and rafiki (in different casts ofc) and we show in 2 days!! im so excited that i get to sing this and they live in you
enjoy it as much as possible take it from a high schooler im literally watching this as like a comfort song bc I miss my middle school production so much
I might be scar
im sarafina wow
in this
I love this song and I’m raifki so great for mee
I’m older Simba, but this song slaps hard
*_slaps too hard_*
I'm mufasa. Hard agree
Ok so I was Adult Simba and I had to run down the isles after rafiki tells me to go back and I remember waiting in the back for my cue to go back to the stage, absolutely having the time of my life to the rest of the song. Still my favorite show
I'm have to dance this 😨
GameLink268 same 😂

I’m too lazy to finish
I am in this musical singing this song and I am a Rafiki and sing the main part
I will play as Simba in this play and I am so excited to at least be a part of this song because this is one of my favorites!
I was Rafiki back in 2018 and omg I don't remember this song being that hard to sing!!
I love how they live in you is young simba (me) and mufasa but he lives in you is simba, rafiki, and mufasa
Your song was very good. I would give it 100 out of 10.
Nice voice
I am rafiki and this is probably my fav song
I'm Pumbaa,
But this is a vibe
As Mufasa, I love this song.
Me too
Lol I’m playing rafiki, can’t wait to sing this
I was Sarabi only cuz it was my first play and I have really bad anxiety but I have a really good voice I'm just to scared to sing in front of people
Praying my director lets me option up because I think it would be so cool
A fan favorite as simba
😮
Lion king ❤
playing rafiki & im lit so nervous. but i’m so excited because i, four years ago, was a hyena and dreamt of singing this song on stage!!
update: a lot of people congratulated me and i had a very different image at school. many parents told me that i should be put in auditions for a broadway 💘💘
im Rafiki and it's so hard to sing
Rameuh Margare my friend is Rafiki and she is amazing she doesn’t think it is

I got rafiki in my school show and im so exited
Lowkey a Banzai but ya boy loves these songs lmao
I'm rafikki and I'm exited to sing this but I need to memorize it

My Favorite is The Lion Sleeps Tonight And Hakuna Matata
