Lion King lyrics (again? sorry...need to know!)
Dijck Stephanie v.
I know this discussion has been in r.a.d. before, but i never
really paid attention as i never saw the Lion King before.
By now, the film is a huge succes in The Netherlands and i've
seen it quite a few times.
Also the CD has almost worn out ;-) from all the playing.
The choir i sing in has recently studied a 6-different-voices
version of "The Cirle Of Life". It really sounds wonderful
when we sing it, but we're all wondering WHAT we are singing.
We wrote down the African lyrics as we heard them on the CD,
but 'himalaya himilamawada' is probably not what they really
sing... And since the tenors are starting to sing 'in my
pajamas in the Himalaya' because it's easier, the sopranos
have a very hard time keeping a straight face.
Can anybody help me with the original (african) lyrics, the
language they are in and what they mean?
For all we know we might be singing the Chinese Anthem 8-)
If anybody wants to help, thanks very much in advance!!!
I'll get you a ticket for our November-performance if you
like...
Hakuna Matata
Greetings from The Netherlands!

the meaning of what they are really singing she wrote to Disney, but as yet has had no reply. Hopefully someone can tell us. I would be funny to compare your interpreted lyrics to ours, to see what choirs all over the world are indeed passing off for thei|> r version of the 'African chanting".

Maybe you can get a copy of Rythmn Of the Pride Lands as there are
lyrics on it along with the english translation. If you really want me to
post it, you can e-mail me as i don't have the album now..sorry:)
Also in order not to get your hopes high, in the album only some of
the african chants are included as in the beginning of CoL and the Busa
Simba part. Hope this helps!

Well, I don't know if this will help any of you, but if you takea look
at the inside of the lyrics for Rythm of the Pridelands, there are all
the African chants you heard on the original soundtrack, except the
words are explained. Buy it or borrow it.

My sister's 4th + 5th grade choir decided to bypass the whole argument.
They simply sang, "Na na na na, na na na na na na!"

You mention "Rythmn Of the Pride Lands". Is it a CD title or a song on a CD. I inquired at my local CD store and they had never heard of it. Where can I get a copy of it?
Thanx in advance ... Greg :^)

Here is a short synopsis of my first impressions from
listening to "Rhythm of the Pridelands"...

Actually, I thought the first track (He Lives in You) is one
of the best songs on the album. Very moving, and not sappy at
all, it ties in nicely with the themes and images from The
Lion King. Other favorite tracks are "Lea Halalela", "Lala",
"Busa", and "Noyana"; these are beautiful compositions with
plenty of African choral embellishment. Also I really like
the arrangement of "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" sung by Lebo
Morake. Somewhat more upbeat is "It's Time", which is really
mostly "pop" in genre, but still quite listenable.
The duet remix of "Hakuna Matata" done by Jimmy Cliff and
Lebo M. is well done, but not as aurally rich as the other
less "pop" sounding tracks. Less enjoyable tracks on this
release included "Kube", and "One by One". "Kube" is very
upbeat and pop-esque, but gets irritating very quickly.
"One by One" seems to start out good, then degenerate into
a jarring mix of African vocals, Lebo M.'s lead, and the
occasional (but highly annoying) background interjection
("One by one!") sung in english.
"Warthog Rhapsody" is fine as a humorous song, and lives
up to its expectations. However, it is fairly shallow in
terms of structure and I can see why this was the song that
was cut from the movie.
Incidentally, I also like Peter Gabriel and Paul Simon (to an
extent), but I purchased Rhythm of the Pridelands for material
composed by Hans Zimmer. Unfortunately, there is only a few
songs by Zimmer on the new CD, but overall the album is very
strong.
Yes, it is a considerable change stylistically from the Lion
King soundtrack, perhaps in that is is more of a "worldbeat"
album, oriented primarily toward an adult audience.
If you are interested in Worldbeat-style music, you may want
to investigate albums by Johnny Clegg and Juluka, both which
have been critically rated. Also have a listen to Hans
Zimmer's other works, such as the soundtracks to "The Power
of One", "Rain Man" (which I both have) and the soundtrack
to a television miniseries called "Millennium: Tribal Wisdom"
(which I'm just about to order, once CDNow! gets new stock...)

Now if you want a role model
Of a life most blissfully led
Then look no further than
Pumbaa here
Then this laid-back quadruped
Relaxation's the name of the game
Be cool and be thick-skinned
Let my lifestyle be your
reference frame
As long as you stand upwind
Your guide must be this rhapsody
CHORUS:
I gets up when I likes
He's got it all worked out
I plans the day ahead
He's got it all worked out
When insperation strikes
He's got it all worked out
I go right back to bed
He's got it all worked out
But though he may not be
one of nature's dynamos
His mind is on the ball and
far from comatose
Don't dismiss
the warthog philosphy
Take it from he!
He's got it all worked out
Take it from me!
He's got it all worked out
Now who wants to be a hunter
Chasing food all over the place
More often than not it gets way
Who needs the thrill of the chase
Why move mountains to get your chow
When you only need to move a log
Make it your dietary resolve for now
To eat like the old warthog
Regarding food
Hmmmmmmmmm
His attitude
CHORUS:
It's bugs for evert meal
I've got it all worked out
So full of vitamins
I've got it all worked out
No need to cook or peel
I've got it all worked out
He eats 'em in their skins
I've got it all worked out
The're delectable, available,
the perfect snack
They ain't endangered species
And they don't fight back
Don't dismiss
the warthog gastronomy
Take it from he
Take it from me
Take it from he
He's got it all worked out
So remember when you see us
staring into space
We've caught between a pillow
and a soft, soft place
Don't resist the warthog mentality
Take it from he
Take it from me
Take it from he
Take it from we
We've got it all worked out

Following up on my own postings; hmmm...
Most larger music chain stores (TOWER, HMV, CAMELOT)
have this album; I'm surprised you haven't seen it
floating around all the record stores since it's
release! If you are unable to find a local store
that carries Rhythm of the Pridelands, just order
the CD from CDNow! [The Internet Music Store]...

Can you people PLEASE stop posting this? It must have been posted about 20
times already. Why doesn't someone put it on an FTP site or WEB page
and direct those who want more info there?
I'm not usually one to flame, but it gets rediculous when I see the same
thing posted dozens of times for no apparent purpose...

: Thanx in advance ... Greg :^)
"Rythm of the Pride Lands" is a coplete CD, containing 11 new songs.
The songs are inspired by the the original soundtrack and movie, and
I have found all but a few songs on the CD to be quite good, though much
different from the original soundtrack. Almost all of the songs contain
African vocals, and the translations are provided. It should be availiable
just about everywhere by now. A good CD, I would recommend it.
