TLK is one of my absolute favorite movies, I watched it repeatedly as a child, had it memorized word for word for years, and I could still recite most of it today. While there's moments in "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" that are probably some of the most impactful moments in the whole film, as a whole I'd call this the best song in the movie. Jeremy Irons vocal performance and expression brings a lot to it, and it's a great piece of character and story building as the song progresses. I actually didn't know Elton wrote ALL the music for this movie, thought it was just some; the part where the hyenas sing "prepare for the chance of a lifetime" has a lot of "Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word" to it.
ugh, now im gonna have to watch the Lion King for the 1000th time again… THANKS A LOT
It really is a brilliant tune. The orchestrations in the Lion King are so boss. I dearly hope they finally release Elton's demo someday.
I truly adore your reaction videos! You are extremely entertaining! You constantly put a smile on my face! KUDOS!!! I need MORE!! Peace & Love
It's my favourite Disney song of all time. It's epic and there's just so much going on. It's an aural fiesta!
God, I found your channel through the Beatles videos and I found a place full of joy.
I love all of your content in general, you are very charismatic and you really always bring something interesting, keep it up! :D
Wow, thank you! Welcome aboard! :D
A breakdown of one of my favorites songs? Sign me up!
I found out this channel through the beatles but I never expected it to become one of my favourite ones, your reactions are unique, hope you continue posting videos.
Definitely one of my favorite villain songs!
I like your song breakdowns.
My only problem with "Be Prepared" is that it's way too short. I'm a flute player myself and I would love to play this song, but I'm not sure it would sound as good. Unless always played in a lower register, it may be hard to get it to sound dark and menacing enough.
This song randomly popped into my head as I was driving home from work earlier today, and now I stumble on this vid…. The future really was littered with prizes.
That major/minor thing you pointed out with the Eb/E is used to great effect in Fiona Apple's "Hot Knife". It's a song I think you might enjoy because the orchestration is so minimal but effective (and TIMPANI!).
You just blew my mind with the change in singer at the end of the song.
I know I was so shocked too!!
Thanks for making me aware of great songs. I listened to the song five times then came back and rewatched your video.
Excellent, interesting analysis of this deceptively complicated song. No wonder you (almost) never get any thumbs down, Caroline. So entertaining to watch and hear your videos. Thanks!
onomatopoeia- the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named
THANK YOU! I knew there was a word but I couldn't find it haha
In German we say "lautmalerisch", "sound picturesque". Fun video btw, loved it.:)
When used in singing to be more musically expressive in relation to the context of the song, the technique you may be thinking of is 'phrasing'? Many crooners and blues singers in the day were great examples of this, Billie Holiday and Frank Sinatra to name a few were well known for their mastery in this area
i love billie bust up comes out soon,
Did you notice the change for the final verse? Jeremy Irons lost his voice, and they had not time to wait for hislm to recover, so the final verse beginning "so prepare for the coup of a century" is actually sang by Jim Cummings, mimicking Jeremy.
My kids love this one.
Angelic!

As a Disney villain, I also think a lot of Scar 😂. Be Prepared is my fav bad guy song from Disney. The voice, between Jeremy I and Jim C, I love it
Also Jim C, voice of Winnie the Pooh, how mental he does Scar's singing voice too. Incredible impression
SO MUCH FUN!👍
Thank you 🤗

For a fan of The Beatles, I recommend "Here Comes the Sun" from the Concert for George.
That was really interesting, I've seen the stage production of the Lion King here in the UK it's a great show. Thanks for the video, it's always nice to hear from you, but I notice a distinct lack of Christmas decs lol :)
Oh the stage show is amazing, that stampede scene! Blew me away! haha this one was filmed a few weeks ago I will admit.
This song is excitedly haunting! The Nazi symbolism in the animation is also just bananas.
Never really been a fan of Disney, Lion King, or animated films, in general. But I think I do like the bad guy songs in Nightmare Before Christmas and Little Mermaid.
I loved this song
Fucken great video!!!!!!
Oh what fun!
Can you do in the dark of the night from the anastasia movie?!
I will never forget. When I was in middle school, we put on a super cheap performance of the lion king (it sucked btw) and the teacher decided to CUT be prepared because she "didn't like it." I spent MONTHS trying to convince her to keep it in and let us do it. She never budged. Even the parents that came to see us were disappointed that we cut it. After we were done with it, the most common question asked to us was "what happened to be prepared?" I will never forgive that teacher for cutting that scene. Especially because the kid playing Scar was the best actor in the class and wasn't a half bad singer. The show would have been so much better with it in...
Oh nooooooo. SO odd as it progresses the story so much, I can't imagine the film without it.
Have any plans to watch Get Back? If so, would you share your reaction?
The music in this was awesome and inspiring I created and recorded my own song called 'Journey of Hope' probably more from the main Elton John song. I ended it with lots of drums like a Tribal sound. ( just a hobbyist in music )
Caroline, could you breakdown 'Hellfire' from the Hunchback of Notre Dame?
Ohhh this is such a great villain song!
the way hyena marching is like nazi soldier and the lion is hitler
Fun fact: Jeremy Irons' favorite album of all time is Sgt Pepper's
Absolutely despise the criminal version of this masterpiece in the live action such a disappointment, probably my favourite Disney song
Ah yes… my favourite Beatles song…
@@Axess-sv8nq or… and hear me out… there are other things that she’s interested in and she doesn’t need to feel pressured into creating beatles content every day of the week.
It's only been eleven days and 2 videos between this and her most recent Beatles video, so nothing seems too out of the ordinary yet! Having patience and enjoying the videos she makes in the meantime will make the next Beatles reaction even more worth the wait!
Caroline said when she started The Beatles series they'd come every 3 weeks or so due to how long it takes to edit and such. So don't worry, the next one should be around the corner.
@@Axess-sv8nq yowsers, chase enough shadows and you'll truly believe you caught one.
@@Axess-sv8nq cringe
