It’s a shame this version of the song isn’t on the CD.

The Elton John album "Road to El Dorado" isn't really a soundtrack: it doesn't contain versions of the songs from the film. It's an album Elton made of the songs that he wrote for the film. However, at the close of the album there are some tracks of Hans Zimmer's film score, so there is some music from the film. I've posted on RUclips all the versions of the Elton John/Tim Rice songs that are actually heard in the film.

Ronnie Friend Okay.

I love this movie and soundtrack so much. I recently learned that the Spaniards thought the Aztecs worshipped them as gods because they'd follow them everywhere with incense, when in reality the Aztecs just thought the Spaniards were really stinky (bc of course they never bathed regularly)

How'd you get all the songs from The Road To El Dorado?

[@RonnieFriend]

I'm a very persistent collector!
