Makes me cry EVERY. TIME. I was practically in hysterics when I saw this in person. Watching all of the puppets come down the aisles and onto the stage was a hell of an experience. Definitely going to go see it again when I get the chance.
Perhaps the most emotional staged first act openings I have ever experienced in the theatre.....
Same! I kept crying from the beauty of it and couldn't stop.
I saw this performance while visiting London and had the same exact reaction. I started bawling when the elephant came walking down the middle of the aisle. Watching this on UA-cam is one thing, but it's one of those performances you have to see live just to feel the raw emotion and power that comes from these performers.
I cry so hard just watching the videos (over and over and over -- hundreds of times) that i honestly worry that if I saw it in person, I would be so hysterical I'd have to leave the theatre...or else I'd get punched by the audience members on either side of me. I might have to take an Ativan before hand to stay civilized -- I dunno!!
Same
Being part of this cast was everything to me I loved doing this show
Amazing!!!🥺🥺🥺
Sending love from Japan🥺🫶🏻💕
Best show I've ever seen. Bravo!💜
Thank you for your performance.
I saw this play for the first time as a child. I was 13. I am 37 now and saw it last year again after so long.
Brought tears to my eyes. It's still such a magical experience.
Actors like you make that magic visceral. Real.
Thank you so much
You were Simba? Wow. I've never seen a stage production but have always wanted to see The Lion King, it came out when I was six and has always been my favorite.
Everytime I hear this I feel like Africa is calling me home 😊.
DeAndra Montgomery-Goreish I agree!
I was very lucky to have visited Africa 20 years ago. Its calling me back.
Me too
@Billy Bob That type of racism is old!!!!!
Sarah Scarborough where in Africa did you go?
Why am I crying??? I imagine this song playing across the globe once this pandemic ends!!
Yes
I saw it live..and I did cry. It’s absolutely unreal.
Saw this in Edinburgh Dec 19 was best I’ve ever seen
That woman who plays rafiki. Amazing singer.
I 'm crying too
The chord progression in this song is one of the most magical ever.
My God I completely agree
The greatness of Lebo M., Hans Zimmer and Elton John! LOVE the chord progression indeed!
This is how you do a “Live Action” Lion King.
I remember seeing this at the Wharton Center, it amazed me to no end. 🤩🍸
No Offence to Mr. Jon Favreau, but are absolutely right Paige Arnold
Thomas Burns True that.
*sees the animated movie*
I prefer the real Lion King.
*sees the live action movie*
I said the REAL Lion King.
*watches Circle of Life Broadway on UA-cam*
Perfection.
I watched and I cried. You will not regret. Do not doubt buying the tickets when they come to your area!
Done and done!
i saw it on broadway
Why I cry
It’s coming to New Zealand and I can’t wait!!
Fortunately i could buy the ticket and i am so happy to watch this amazing show 😍😍😍
Can I just obsess over the props/puppets for a minute.😂😂😂
The fact I have had the privilege to see some of them up close makes me cry
And that lead woman’s solo voice in the beginning!!! Wow
My dad was fascinated by them... I remember him saying he wanted to take one to disassemble and see how it worked. Me, I was blown away by their creativity and practicality, how they all showed each animal in such a realistic way while incorporating their actors perfectly.
This song makes me cry tears of joy EVERY FREAKING TIME. and when I saw the live musical, I WANTED TO HOWL WITH EXCITEMENT, IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL.
I saw this for my birthday in Edinburgh at the weekend. As someone who has wanted to see this for YEARS, and has waited it to return to Edinburgh for 7 years it was truly INCREDIBLE. It wasn’t just a musical. It was an EXPERIENCE. As the number started I couldn’t help but start crying. The amount of work that goes into a musical that has been touring for the last 22 years. The realisation that I was there, sitting in that audience watching the cast walk on stage. Knowing that one of my dreams had just come true. If you ever get the chance go see it, do it! It will be one of the best experiences you’ve spent you money on. It is worth every, single penny!
Edit: saw it again in Edinburgh on Thursday and (somehow) it was even better!
I've been to Edinburgh. Loved it and York as well!
I saw them in January right before the pandemic got bad. My sister and I got tickets as a Christmas gift. We were in tears by the end of this number. It was so beautiful.
I saw this a LONG time ago I did it once for sharing the arts drama no I’m doing it for music for life drama
I saw this two years ago and when I heard the first few notes of the opening acting I got goosebumps and almost starting crying. Love it. Also if you haven’t seen les mis you should see it.
And if you have a chance to go in London one day, buy ticket cause you just saw the tour version! The Original is amazing! The pride rock from the bottom of the stage and several other things. On tour nothing came from the bottom and change a lot of things
I saw this on Broadway when I was 11 years old I am 30 now and I still remember this never forgot it. It was so unforgettable. It was so good. I really want to go back. This was so so so good.
How to wake up a family who’s way into Disney
SO TRUE!!
Bmen !!!!
Cmen !!!!!
0:00 goosebump
The woman’s voice even stronnger than my muscles
She's AMAZING. I saw this play in person and the way she projects through the whole auditorium so effortlessly is BREATHTAKING
Get off UA-cam and go to the gym.
The word is "stronger".
I've attended this 16 times in 4 different cities (the first, being New York City). I always take others to see it. I've had my students perform it for their spring production and I've attended countless of my colleagues productions of it. As much as I love the entire play, I'm good after the opening scene. It is mind boggling each time. I've seen it from floor seats, the mezzanine, but mostly the lower balcony. In my opinion that gives you the most majestic view. Yes, I'm a bit obsessed with it.
You sound like me!!!
My sister took me and I am now obsessed.. thanks for sharing the best view
A bit obsessed with it and clearly rich as fuck...
front row balcony - my favorite seats for any show. you see EVERYTHING!
As crazy amazing as this video is, seeing it live is indescribably powerful
Totally agree. I saw this musical at The Pantages Theater in LA. MAGICAL!!! POWERFUL!!! I sat on the aisle, not knowing what to expect. When the rhino walked past me then the beautiful ladies representing the flock of birds, my mind was blown; it was so spectacular. This is the genius of Julie Taymor.
I had tears rolling down my face both times I've been able to see this in the London West End. Even watching this clip gives me goosebumps and makes my eyes watery..
Every time I watch this I'm just amazed at the actors, especially the 2 who do the giraffes.
This is one of the most epic music pieces in music history. Something like an anthem. I always have tears in my eyes. What a fu..ing exquisite song
I never had the chance to see them but I know myself I would cry until the end, this movie has such a special place in my heart that just hearing the songs makes me cry.
No need to say how much chills I get
Circle of life: Harmony in universe, all of us are interconnected, hence we can contribute to each other selflessly. To do so, see universe within us and we in the universe. Bible says, from dust we came and dust we go.
Vedas says, Jivo jivasya jivanam- life depends on life meaning one needs another one for survival materialistically or emotionally. If implemented in life will help to create "Vasudhaiv Kutumbakam" whole universe is my family.
Hence Hakuna matata in responsible way--
Why u cry
There is something about seeing this in person that is extremely overwhelming in the most beautiful way.
Tears well in my eyes every time.
Before covid, the yaks during the stampede would fill the isles and "run" with the audience. Im not sure what changed this, honestly. It was one of my favorite parts of the show. You felt like you were running right beside simba. It made the experience so real.
But every time they uplift him over pride rock, i bawl like a child.
Still do.
If you havent seen this play yet, WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!
This makes me so happy! Literally crying from this it's beautiful!
i saw this on one of the front rows. it shook me her voice is so powerful. ❤❤❤
Have to say ‘Lion King’ is the best Musical I’ve ever seen. I saw it in Sydney for my 50th Birthday 16 years ago, unlike me it hasn’t aged.😁💕
0:32 WHAT A STRONG VOICE!!! My god!! That raspyness sounded so good too
I remember seeing this in person for the first time and practically vibrating out of my seat with excitement as soon as I heard the first note. Seeing the huge elephant coming down the aisle was a mind-blowing experience, and the whole thing was truly magical. The acting, the set, the music, THE COSTUMES, it's all so incredible. Everyone should go see this in person at least once in their lives. I can't even find the words to describe how amazing it is.
Just having the Best Memories at Middle School doing this Musical Act, I'm actually having goosebumps right now!! I just LOVE IT!!
I hope this becomes the first musical we get back once this pandemic FINALLY ends because imagine all of us in the theatre just hearing the first note drop and crying. We deserve this.
It does, it's coming back and i'm freaking out!
We have just had this in NZ, it was amazing and people were legit crying
@@georgiaclaire5668 I swear once this returns to SG we're all going to wail once Circle of Life starts playing...
@@Sita_Schioetz Ooooh have fun! Where are you from, dear friend?

I've seen the stage show 5 times in 2 states, and I plan on seeing it again. 😍 I seriously will never get tired of it!!!
When the animals came down the aisles I wanted to cry
I did. The elephants made me lose it.
I saw this with my grandma and it was AMAZING
As well as seeing Aladdin at Disneyland and the little mermaid on broadway with my mother who has now passed
Disney musicals are honestly just as great maybe even better than the original movies!
Honestly some of my greatest memories!
I saw this with my grandma as well 🙏🏽❤
Seeing The Lion King on Broadway is on my bucket list.
That makes two of us! Research tickets now.
They have north america tour. Just watched it on minneapolis last night.
Saw the Lion King on Broadway a couple of years ago and it was fanominal; worth every penny. Will be bringing my little munchkin soon.
2:16 I am dying because of the little baby elephant. So cute!!!
I have no idea why but every single time and I mean EVERY, I just burst into tears and bawl my eyes out while watching and listening to this. The first time I watched it was in a theatre class and it took everything in me not to start sobbing in the middle of class, I ended up discreetly wiping my tears 😃
I saw this on tuesday in Broadway! Still emotional about it. Beautiful
My mom took me to see this when I was around 25 and even though I grew up going to broadway shows I was in awe sitting on the isle seat with the elephants walking right past us. One of the best shows hands down
My dad promised he’d take me to see this...
At the age of 2...
Finally got to see this at the age of 10.
Worth the wait
Thanks dad xxx
I did the same promise to my son! He is 2 too!
I’ve seen this play twice and i cried the entire time it’s so incredible ❤
Seeing this number alone live is worth the ticket price. This video doesn’t do it justice since you can’t see the singers in the audience boxes and the puppets coming down the aisles right by you.
It’s a beautiful, beautiful show and I’m so glad I just got to see it live.
CHILLS every time. The vocal power and beauty of the score combined with the gracefulness, naturalness, and personality that is brought to each member of the animal kingdom shown in this opening number blows my mind every time.
Just this scene alone makes it worth seeing.
I was never a big fan of Lion King the animated film. I mean... I liked it enough, I liked the music, but it was never a Disney movie that made we want to watch the animation again and again. I then went to go see Lion King the musical, and I thought, "NOW THIS is how it should be done. It blows the animated film out of the water." I cry everytime I see the Circle of Life opening scene. It's SO powerful.
Saw this in Singapore and just bawled.
Omg 😭😭 the tickets were soooo worth it!!! My daughter and I cried as soon as it started! Waiting for this again in el paso!
Just have to say, of all the Lion King onstage recordings I've watched on UA-cam, this one shows panoramic view of the start of the show with more clarity and beauty than any other! I haven't seen another video that captures so clearly the entire lighting progression from the dark stage to the dark blue sky to the dawn, the sunrise, the shimmer of heat, the MIST rising off the ground(!!!!!) all the way through each animal's entrance. Thank you, videographer, for doing that -- it's just fantastic!!!! There's little details I caught in this recording that I hadn't noticed before, like the fact that the baby elephant (my favorite!!!) had a little bird on his head, or that the two gazelles stand like bookends on either far side of the stage, making sure the herds are gathering in an organized fashion (like bouncers, hee hee), or how sweet Mufasa and his wife are to each other as they stand on Pride Rock, nuzzling every now and then, and holding hands. Augh, I'm weepy again. ;)
Simply marvellous. ...it's my dream to see the Lion King on Broadway......it hasn't happened yet...one day I hope😯
it gives me chills every time... EVERY TIME
The vocal qualities and harmonies are amazing! So much richer than the Disney soundtrack
Every time I hear this my African pride kicks in, and I’m a Mexican.
First saw this in London when I was about 3 or 4 years old and it's still my favourite even now at 23. This opening makes me cry every time!
i dont think you were that young they dont allow under 7s in
@@doyouhearthepeoplesing2 In the UK 6 is the recommended minimum age for The Lion King but the actual restriction is no under 3's. I was taken to see it just before my 4th birthday and still have programme book from 1999
@@rhiannairwin9716 wrong im english they dont let under 7s in cos of the death scene
@@doyouhearthepeoplesing2 I don't know about present day restrictions but this was 22 years ago and I was literally there. Their website also just says no under 3's.
@@rhiannairwin9716 i went the first christmas it was there so 98 i think i had just turned 8
I’ve seen this magnificent musical three times here in Los Angeles and will do so again when I go to NYC in January 2022. Every time the cast enters by coming down the aisles singing in their beautiful costumes I got teary eyed. Just fabulous!
Personally, I think this show has far more meaning than the remake film. Not just because it's adapted with respect to the original film and with the same creative spirit and love, but because of the amazing cultural richness of the costumes and props. And how those costumes and the body puppets re so amazingly adapted to show the actors while maintaining the animal characteristics, the most amazing thing to me.
This is so beautiful idk why I’m sobbing but damn
2021 and still listening to this masterpiece having the same goosebumps and about to sob...again. 🌅
My daughter and I saw Lion King in NYC eight years ago. It will be coming to our area in Spring 2022. Her daughter will be 3 by then. We will be taking her, it’s such a visual treat.
Saw this show the Lyceum London amazing from start to finish
Watched this live today,I don't think I'm gonna enjoy any other musical ever,this was just so grand
I cried when I saw this live, it's so breathtaking!
This was my first Broadway show with my sister, her husband and my late husband when I lived in Manhattan/NYC for 16 years. I fell in love with the show and the music. Back then they sold DVD's downstairs and I HAD to buy it. It was $24 and kind of out of our budget. But it was one of the best thing I ever bought.
The DVD is useless now, but I still hold on to it. I've heard the entire music/songs a million times and it never gets old.
Still one of the best Broadway shows I've seen! Never gets old!
Thank God I'm not the only one who cries watching and hearing that song.
Saw this about 2 years ago. It was AMAZING!!!! :)
The best musical I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing! I am a thankful 🙏🏽
When I understand this thing now it makes me feel so happy because that's such a beautiful play and the end is just as beautiful thank you thank you thank you We are all truly in the circle of life Only one creator
Can't wait to watch the show in New York with my family
Losing moisture here watching this
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Powerful AF 😍😍😍😍
I got to see the Broadway traveling version last night it was so good I started to cry when all the animals came out in the first 5 minutes
That elephant and its baby makes me cry every. Single. Time. 😍
I always tell people, if they're only going to see one big stage production it absolutely has to be the lion king. 10/10 production 1:22 😊
I watched it when I got back home I cry 😭
Why do people cry
I have no words as the tears are strolling down my face. Emotional journey xx
Escuchar esta canción y ver el musical es un regalo para el mundo por parte de una cultura maravillosa, gracias Disney por tremenda obra maestra.
Seen it twice. Once in Melbourne then in New York before covid came. I cried so much when I heard this. Happiness and memories flooding back. If I ever get the chance to go and see the lion king again I will
I saw the show off Broadway in 2019 and I think it was Norfolk Virginia and it’s honestly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had in my life and I can’t wait to see it again
I saw it live in Birmingham years ago and it still gives me chills. What a beautiful show! Someday I hope to take my little nieces to see it if it's still going in a few years when they're old enough.
Absolutely loved watching this! I was so fortunate to see The Lion King on Broadway in 2011. It was my first and only time I’ve flown abroad. I hope to see it again in London one day.
This song is so POWERFUL I love it!!! ❤
Saw this two years ago. Its was just life altering♥️
Watching this with my daughter. She's in love with this scene.
The real definition of beauty!
i am crying a lot!!!! I love this song!!
That is the most UNENTHUSIASTIC audience ever! This is the only live action Lion King that should ever exist!
It was a media call so the media were mostly building up the audience. These performances are never loud with applause, etc.
the song that made me fallen in love with african voices
Just saw this on Saturday in London .. was absolutely blown away! So brilliantly done 😍 x
Yes! I saw this musical twice! It was so amazing!
Amazing costumes and talent
when i saw this on broadway as soon as this song started i was crying
I saw this a few days ago at the Hult center in Eugene. When all the actors walked down the stairs, I was shook. The vocals were so good and it was hilarious how they added in inside jokes. Seriously though, I loved it, and i wish the cast the best of luck in their upcoming performances 😊💜
This rafiki gets all roles Singapore,China,tour,Brazil and many more
Jessie Sanders . This particular Rafiki has only done the show in Mexico, and international tour.
Tokyo love I thought the role was ntepsa petijeng
Jessie Sanders i watch singapore version.
Jessie Sanders - Ntsepa is the lead Rafiki in the international tour, but for this performance she wasn’t in to do it. So her understudy filled in
The best rafiki is brown
Omg this ALWAYS makes me wanna cry, brings up so many memories
Every time I see this, I feel humanity is calling......
I saw this in 2019 in London, holy shit it blew my mind
Much much more enjoyable than the lion king 2019 remake. So much beauty. Lion King original from 1994 wouldn’t have been this iconic without this.
I saw this recently and I unfortunately had a seat under the mezzanine so I couldn’t see the top part of the stage but this was still amazing to watch and that elephant had to have like 6-8 people inside it.
So wonderful
I’m going to the Manchester one on the 9th this month and my friends will miss me when I’m away to see this I’m totally gonna enjoy it 100% I love the lion king so much I never saw the musical in person I only saw some of it on yt and It’s my drama topic too excitingly I love my life so much
I was taken as a child to this. Saw it again in NY as an adult and now I’m taking my daughter. The nostalgia is soooo real 🥹
I'm crying rn😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️
Best musical ever!!!🦁👑
Magical.
