      Long live... *THE KING!*
      Scar was meant to represent the British King in Hamlet BUT WITH LIONS.
      Not surprised that Colm was able to nail this song.
      *He already did Hellfire as well as Tony Jay HIMSELF! That's AMAZING!*

    They fact that disney doesn't have this dude on retainer for some animated movies, just goes to show how far they have fallen in the talent and imagination department. I have chills, shivers and dare I say a tingly sensation. Man that was good.

One of the things that I love is that all of you have enough overlap in your covers that I get a ton of songs I love on a ton of different styles. And when it comes to Be Prepared, you've managed to make my favorite cover yet (and yes, that's even with the minor lyrical errors). You're awesome; keep doing what you do.
