    I feel like so many people forget that a very strong aspect of lion king is the acceptance of death of loved ones and moving on with it, often making us stronger. This is the song where it reminded me of this message when I saw it at the west end recently, and I was just reminded how GOOD the lion king is. Chills. Too many chills bruh.

      My grandfather, who raised me, recently passed away and The Lion King was our movie. The scene were simba and mufasa say 'were pals right?' and discuss the kings of the past was a very special scene for us. I had never heard this song until after he passed (I had only seen the animated movie) So when I heard this song...it was like a whole other part of my heart was just opened up and made new again. I cried sooooo hard, happy, sad, everything. Your comment really brought a deeper realization to this part of me and the strong connection I have to the story of The Lion King.

      I remember the first time hearing that song in the soundtrack when I was a toddler and it felt like people shooting fireworks in the middle of the night while I was trying to sleep. As years started to progress after I watched the show live on stage, I started to love the song more and more.

    I just saw this in New York and I was basically sobbing during this song. It's moving just to hear it, but it's even more moving when you see it performed.

      I saw this back in 2009 with my school choir during my senior year and you are absolutely right. It's SO powerful to see it and feel the emotion and energy radiating from the stage and performers positioned all around the theatre. It moved me to tears then, and hearing it 8 years later still does.

      Performing in any play or musical is surreal, at least to me. Back in 2019, my dance studio was performing the musical Cats. My family took me to see it when it was being performed in San Jose, and to be on stage dancing as Bombalurina about a month later was so surreal to me.

    I don’t have a sob story or anything to anyone else, but I still sit here crying. I have Peter Pan syndrome, were I fear growing up and grow too mentally attacked to my childhood. My elementary school did this play for our school play when I was in sixth grade. This musical was such a happy time in my life, I wasn’t a very social kid and had little friends but being in this musical gave me friends. The people I got to work with were app so amazing and made the experience so amazing. This was our last song, I remember on the last day, I just sobbed to this song, I didn’t care if I was front and center on stage, this song brought so much emotion. This year was also my last year of elementary school, I was being forced to leave my childhood. This song still brings me to so many tears listening to it, I miss being this happy.

      @LightGE 10 років тому +14

      ***** Aww. Thank you so much for sharing that. That must have been very difficult to go through. I had a very different relationship with my grandmother. We actually didn't get along at all when I was young. As I grew older, I realized that my grandmother knew me better than everyone else in my life and a lot of our interaction was her protecting me from people that just didn't get me. I look back and now realize how much she made me stronger. I'm so glad I had the chance, though very brief, to tell her that I get it now and to thank her.
      Ya know the song says "He (she) lives in you..." Our grandmothers, eternalsweetheart, they live in us. No matter what our last days with them were like, they left an indelible presence in our lives that will guide us forever. Your grandmother is still with you. I know because you felt her when you read my little statement, when you listen to that song, when you heard it for the very first time. She is speaking to you and reminding you not only that you love her, but that she loves you still. She lives in you. She will forever. And you know what, she's amazing I know, because you love and miss her.
      Again, thanks for sharing. It's nice to know when other people feel what we feel, that we are not alone in our feelings even if the other person is someone we will never meet.
      Much love, sweetie. *kiss*

      ***** Jesy, I am well old enough to be your mom; yet, you have just brought me to tears. I've been going through so some stuff right now, and so she has been on my mind so very much the past few weeks. My grandmother was a tough lady, and she saw a strength and a power in me that I couldn't completely understand when I was your age. What she wanted me to understand and remember for the rest of my life is that I should never hide my power or dim my light because other people don't know how to handle me. She taught me to be true to myself and ignite that light and let it shine as bright as its gonna, and I really needed to be reminded of that right now. I hear her voice so clearly right at this moment, and I thank you for that.
      You are such a smart and articulate kid. I'm very impressed by you. But, please take from this another encouraging thought. As you grow older, some days will still be hard, some days you'll forget the pain; but, even when you get to be in your forties like me, you will always be able to hear her voice. One day you'll need her and she'll speak to you, and her voice will be so clear. So, live your life, baby girl, in a way that will make your grandmother so proud. Because on those days you'll imagine her smiling at you, and it will feel like her face is right in front of you, and you'll smile too... and you'll feel her love wrap itself around you.
      And do me a favor, please don't forget me. I know I will never forget the day a 15 year old kid I don't even know reminded me that I am strong enough to take on the world. :)
      I'm going to play Mama now for a second and remind you, do not put your real name and age in a public forum. I'm glad you did, because I feel like I know you a little bit, and it makes this exchange all the more amazing. But, please be careful when you're here on the internet. It feels like your just in your house, because that's where you are. But, when you're on the internet you are face to face with the whole world. Be careful and be safe, baby girl.
      Funny thing. I think my grandma and your grandma met some where and hooked up this little exchange. See how much they love us, and how much they still affect us. They're with us... forever.
      Much love, baby girl. Be safe.

      +Disney Music Videos I think we may have been at the same performance! I was taken there a couple nights ago by complete surprise, and this was my favorite part. I'd seen it before, but I won't forget how lively this year's tour was.

    I just saw this show for the first time last night and had no idea this song was in it. I had to look into it, since I only know the song from the movies sequel. I thought it fit so perfectly into this story. Turns out it was written after the movie, inspired by the movie, so they used it for the Broadway show and a version was used in the sequel movie. This was the best part of the show, for sure. I was sobbing.
