    Just a little background on the song. The Lion Sleeps Tonight was originally written and recorded by Solomon Linda in South Africa in 1939. It was sung and adapted by many international artists in the 50s and 60s but it was The Tokens who had the number 1 hit in the US in 1961. Beautifully done.

      Lion Sleeps Tonight actually dates back even earlier than 1939.
      It probably dates as far back as early as late 1800s.
      It is actually an old Zulu song that pre- dates Soloman Linda's version in 1939.
      Obviously, there were always changes to the song along the way and, it was never recorded or even written down in those early days but, simply copied by generation after generation.

      @@MikeJones-rk1un It's definitely cheating. But, a lot of artists use it, these days, sadly. Cher popularized it by using it in 1998 on the song "Believe". It was used there to create unnatural corrections for effect, but as soon as artists found out about it, it started taking off. With AI taking over, it's only going to get worse.

    How do you know if a song is great?
    1961... "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" hit the airwaves when I was 7, I sang it constantly then and have loved it ever since.
    Fast forward... 1970, the "garage band" I was in performed it for a High School talent show, and won.
    Fast forward again... 1985, Berwyn IL. I walked into what would become my favorite little bar in the world and discovered that every night "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" was the "Last Call" song. If you sang along with the bartender when they put it on the jukebox, half an hour before closing time, your last drink was free.
    Fast forward again... 2014, I had the chance to revisit "my favorite little bar in the world" after being away for 22 years and discovered that after TWO ownership changes, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" is Still the "Last Call" song.
    Fast forward one last time, 2019, my Grandson and his new Bride chose "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" for their First Dance at their Wedding reception.
    How do you know if a song is great?
    THIS, is how you know a song is Great!
