My Lullaby- The Lion King II (lyrics)

- Continuing on with songs from The Lion King 2 :)
Facts About: "My Lullaby"
- Sung by Suzanne Pleshette, Andy Dick, and Crysta Macalush
- Zira's lullaby to Kovu, which outlines her plot for him to kill Simba and how proud it would make her.
- The equivalent to "Be Prepared" as the song is talking about how they plan to murder Simba just like how Scar's song talked about killing both him and Mufasa in the previous film.
- The song's ending is similar to the end of "Be Prepared" with Zira towering over the Outlanders mirrors Scar towering over the hyenas at the end. They are even standing on similar structures; For Scar, forms of rock that suddenly came out of the ground during the song, and, for Zira, a massive termite mound that is part of the group of termite mounds that the Outsiders live in.
- Zira's treatment of Nuka during the song also resembles Scar's abuse of Shenzi, Banzai and Ed.
No copyright infringement intended. I do not own this music.
This song is a lot darker than how I remember it was.
yeah I thought I was the only one..there song doesn't even rhyme and it's because it's all about death..jesus what the shit Disney :P
Exactly!! This song is all about violence and death!! So, why Disney?
It does rhyme...
a lie same here
It's because when you were a kid you always think everything is innocent... Trust me... I didn't even know what it was talking about until now... 0_0
Geez, that's song is so purrfect.
Seriously, Zira's one of the top villain in the Disney's movies and prolly in the whole kid's film collections. She has a background, she's a purpose. She's been hurt and betrayed. In one word : she's "human". That's something you can feel when watching the movie and that makes it great.
That's how I love my Disneys (and movies).
It's one of the few times during this series that I wasn't roaring with laughter
Zira did not really get betrayed, Mufasa got betrayed & Simba had to avenge him
I liked this comment just because of the PAWesome pun you did there!
LITTERally!
I'm not SPINNING A YARN here!
(Okay I'll see muself out...)
Skarlet Exorcism Oh God🤣
I love the scene where she grieves over nuka. She twisted and a little insane, but also feels real. She’s not just there for bloodshed, she does care about her sons, even if in a twisted way
Okay, who here likes Zira as much as Scar?
lucas reis 46 persons
lucas reis 32 Lions
Me.
+lucas reis ehhh she's alright
Zira is my favorite character out of all disney movies! XD
It's sad that Disney's movies probably will never have these themes (brutal deaths, violence, dark songs) again.
Branko Krzelj They had the theme of death in Up
Branko Krzelj yea 🙏 pray for em
They'll think of something. Just wait.
What are you talking about? Disney movies still have lots of death. (Disney loves death) And if we're talking dark themes, man, don't get me started on the emotional abuse in Tangled, that was too real.
Branko Krzelj Have you even seen Zootopia?
I get legitimate chills when she sings "Payback time is nearing, and then our flag will fly." Chills that "Be Prepared" didn't actually give me.
saameeee, especially with it followed by "against a blood red sky"
I think both this song and Zira are better than Be Prepared and Scar.
@@alyssabullock6421it seems you weren’t prepared
I get it during “a symphony of death, oh my” with the music in the background
@@alyssabullock6421on German dub it was like " And King's blood will flow" 😱
*the lionesses starts fighting*
Zira: I haven't dreamt of anything else but this
Timon: she sure does need a hobby
but hey he's ain't wrong
True
True
“Boy does she need a hobby”
True very true
Kelly Smith i haven’t dreamt of anything else for years *
"The sound of Simba's dying gasp,
His daughter squealing in my grasp,
his lionnesses' mournful cry"
....
"And then our flag will fly,
against the blood-red sky"
This is why I loved this song so much. This is as dark as Hellfire. It describes one's desire for war, conquest, and genocide. I cant believe Disney didn't sugar-coated the darkness of this song. Compared with the more recent Villain songs, "My Lullaby" will still one of the greatest, darkest Disney Villain songs
Nah. This song actually had the potential to be as good as "Hellfire," but they ruined it with these three lines:
1. "Til he learns to be a killer with a lust for being bad!" is a terrible line. Zira believes herself to be in the right - so why would Kovu be "bad" if he's fighting for her side? As shown later in the movie, Scar's followers don't even view him as a villain, but as a martyr.
2. "A symphony of death..." Is great! But it's immediately followed by an "...Oh my!" which comes across as extremely cheesy.
3. "I can hear the cheering: Kovu, what a guy!" is a buzzkill in the middle of a dramatic buildup. It was only added to be funny so that small kids watching the scene wouldn't be scared.
With these three lines corrected it would rival mainline villain songs, but they're right there, so we end up with a confusing, campy bit.
Well written
BizzarreProductions they should’ve changed the lust for being bad line to “a lust for revenge.”
Amen to that. Can't wait for Disney to mess this up by making it again as lifeless live action... [/sarcasm]
You guys should see the German Version its darker than this
Scar was sneaky and cunning. He tried to lure others into a death trap, while Zira just wants to attack forcefully, no matter what.
Um, no...she was just as smart, sneaky and cunning. She was just was more evil and insane, she just wasn't a coward.
She's sooooo great. I do prefer her a lot over Scar x)
Maxime Gilles that's a realy col
Same I lol like scar
no wonder Zira was left out in Kingdom Hearts 2 but then again couldve made a decent villain in that manner.
1998 "a symphony of death"
2013 "let it go"
I think kids movies have changed quite a bit
It was the attitude era
Funny how Zira said at the ending of the movie "I will NEVER let it go!"
Don't forget Hellfire and Savages. Ah the times Disney went dark a fuck.
Just a little bit lol
Wolf-Girl12 ikr, it was awesome
The imagery of the lyrics, the tone of ziras voice as she sings, plus how the beginning starts like an actual lullaby and then becomes more intense as it goes on. In other words this this is one dark and awesome song
"His lioness' mournful cry" AWW NALA NOO
Ok but Nala would literally slay
+Anna Scholle no kidding.
Nala is overrated in my opinion
I think that Nala had too small of a part in the second movie, considering she was such an important role in the first one. They did her no justice, but that's my opinion.
I think she meant all of the lionesses
Anna Scholle IKR?!
I love the end...so evil... "our flag will fly against a blood-red sky" chills!
Enoch Nox my actual favourite part. So powerful n scary, partly because of the words, mostly the way she says it
Right though?
" simba's dying gasp, His daughter squealing in my grasp, His lioness' mournful cry"? Geez this song is dark
You know, for kids!
@@annvirsan1826😂
anyone else loves the way Nuka says "Kovu, what a guy" 😂😂😂
It's actually Vitani
Gotta love Andy Dicks. Loved him in Less Than Perfect. Complete 180 of this. Love it
@@lookatthat9791 it's not Vitani, Vitani is cheering but Nuka is draging his voice
@@raynergamingtv581 Oh yeah yeah
@@raynergamingtv581 TESTIFY
How does he get any sleep with a lullaby like that?
*she
😂😂😂
Haven't you seen the bags under their eyes? Obviously, that lullaby doesn't help anyone sleep!
I would
I’d sleep to this lol I love this song
Holy cripes. I literally just realized.
"So you found yourself somebody who'd chase Simba up a tree."
"CHASE SIMBA UP A TREE."
GUYS this is a harkening callback to the first movie!!
Holy crap I never noticed that! Good job!
KittyCatAddict or it's really sad foreshadowing because Nuka dies while chasing Simba up a bunch of dead trees
Or it's both
Neevkl _7 One or both, without a doubt.
Oh
MY
*GOD*
Wow
Scar’s song is about how he’s gonna ursuper his brother for the throne.
Zira’s song is about how the murder of her archenemy is her lullaby.
Talk about escalating quickly.
I think both Scar and Zira are both incredibly successful villains for entirely different reasons.
Scar was successful for his cunning and his ability to manipulate those around him. Rather than specifically desiring bloodshed, he was driven by ambition and the murder of the competition was simply a means to an end for him. Scar was lacking in physical prowess; something which he was highly aware of and so used his brain to compensate by forming strong alliances and manipulating people and situations so that things would go his way. And that was what made him enjoyable to watch and quite refreshing in many ways.
Zira is equally successful but is a markedly different type of villain to Scar, if not the exact opposite. For starters Zira's goal is not ambition, although it is heavily implied she wants Kovu to become the king of pride rock, her main focus is revenge. Thus making her more bloodthirsty and less manipulative. This is evident as she never once tried to lie to her followers about her motives, charm them with words or offer them promises to persuade them to follow her. She actively desires physical confrontation and is very open about her bloodlust, specifically her desire to kill Simba and his family; whereas Scar played things closely to the chest so that he could prevent pysical altercations and other repercussions for his despicable actions.
This is what seperates them as villains and honestly I think it was a good move on Disney's part to make them so different. Attempting to make a villain just like Scar would almost certainly have fallen flat, perhaps to the point of being cringey.
But Zira was honestly the one thing that kept me fully invested in the second film, to be perfectly honest.
And also, as this is Zira's song. I'd like to say that I love it and it is definitely one of the best songs in the soundtrack. Also it is on par with be prepared in my opinion.
Girl you just wrote a whole damn essay!
@@ellieb333 But was it a bad one?
@@Vixterlk This sounds like something I would have to write for my film studies class
@@JackOLanternBob Thank you. I've never done Film Studies though, so that's a really nice compliment.
What a great summary of their characters, at least the distinction between them. I agree. Zira was definitely more focused on revenge and slaughtering her enemies. She wanted people to suffer, whereas Scar just fancied himself as the rightful king. He killed those who stood in his way, because it seemed logical--though it seemed quite personal with Mufasa.
To be honest, I know Disney wanted to drive the point home that he was bad for Pride Rock...but as smart as he was, it was unrealistic for his reign to cause drought/famine. Though I guess he just lacked the leadership qualities needed to control the hyenas. (Based on my knowledge of Africa though, the dry season is a very difficult time for lions. So that was realistic, just odd the movie portrayed Scar as the cause. As if he upset the balance of life, when in fact there are severe dry seasons and the herds follow the rain patterns).
Now I've gone off on a tangent, my god. 🤣 As you can see, I too enjoy analyzing things.
I love Vitani's singing voice.
right
I really wish we could hear more of her singing
for real CaptJosmy
Leticia Ortiz Me too, I wish she can sing more in this song.
Yes! That line of her replays in my head over and over. I love it!!
Zira was one of the most well developed villains ever and shes so underated. You can sympathize with her madness which makes all the more terrifying and you can see what it does to those around her and herself.
I just love Vitani’s “Teatify!” it was so cute her and that “Kovu what a guy”
*testify*
Am I alone in always liking the bad guys in movies??
Lacy Ostrander No
Nope not really.
Yes! XD I love you both in the non creepiest way possible
Nope. Kovu (I think that's how you spell his name) is my favorite charecter,
Right?!
I swear I thought all these years that she said "That's my little boy" My life is a lie.
Lol tat lol but day we all make mistakes
Bella PROSSER how do you think nuka will look with a full mane
LASSANA DIARRA Like a lion. XD
nya thomas lol
+LASSANA DIARRA I honestly don't no idea, I've never watched the lion king 2 my friend was on my account when she commented.
Zira scares me more than Scar.
if Zira got as far as Scar did then it would have ended soooooo badly
Carolynn Cairns Yikes, I can just imagine that.
***** I still love her though!
ya..... she's screwed up
yea don't hate me for this but I feel like she's the female version of scar with two times more evil and bloodlust.
she sounds like somebody who would smoke
Well she did voice Yubaba
She did
i mean....pretty sure she did.....cause like everybody used to
Like my grandmother.
I hate how overlooked this song is, it’s genuinely on tier with the villain songs of Disney’s golden age. It’s no Be Prepared, but I think it still remains one of the better Disney villain songs, behind Hellfire, the aforementioned Be Prepared, and Gaston.
This song is soo dark for a children's film. But it is such a wonderful song & composition!
MayzeSigSzalay Even darker when you realize Zira was supposed to commit suicide.
+MayzeSigSzalay Oh come now, children need to learn about rebellion and vengeance eventually.
Ninja07Keaton
I don't mind it! This was my 2nd fave song from this film after Deception. "A symphony of death, oh my!" You've got to admit though they probably wouldn't make something like that these days.
+Trunks1stApprentice Wait... what?! o.o
Azureus G Remember when the cliff broke and Zira fell to her death (or when she slipped, idk. I haven't seen the movie in a long while)? Originally, Zira was supposed to let go and fall to her death with a grin on her face, technically winning because she ended it her way.
Been awhile since I heard this song... never knew how psychotic the lyrics were. Now I'm debating which disney song is more messed up, Hellfire or this?
Both.
MrFreakinReaper Hellfire, It isn't often that there is a Disney movie with hell in it.
Psychotic?
You mean psychopathic,psychosis is a common state when you are drunk or drugged,but psychopathy is a bigger problem.
Hellfire, it so sexual
Hellfire. It literally mentions the devil
I never considered Lion King 2 much of a movie, especially when compared to its predecessor, but the songs...The songs...Wow.
Unfortunately, it is a lot shorter and doesn't have enough character development like the first :/ But, I still love it. I think Zira was the character that made it good though.
***** Yeah. Lion King is definitely better, but Lion King 2's songs are very good.
+heatherjasper97 I never like this movie. But yeah, this song is on of the best villain songs ever
+heatherjasper97 Yeah. "the symphony of death". Disney is beginning to slip a little bit.
+Tiffany Larsen nah that was back when Disney had balls now it's some more princess shiz
umm....Zira took lullabays to a WHOLE nother level!!!
Izzy Gionis
zira used to be a pridelander so was vitani
but zira got banned from the pridelands and stole vitani
XD
@@scootaloorainbowssister7021 vitani was her cub... she certainly didnt steal her lol technically vitani got banned because simba banned his whole pride...
It's a shame Disney doesn't make dark songs like this anymore
Lol
@@nasomeeking1367wym lol it was three years ago idk what movie you’re thinking of that would make this an ironic statement
@@sammybutler3027especially with the new villain song from the movie wish sounding like they ordered it from wish.
So this is from a kid's movie, right?
Yup 😂😂
im a kid............im not supposed to watch this
+Nina Alexander You don't have a child hood of you've never watched this
yup i watch the lion king 1 and 2 like 20 times
ryoichi Uchiha same 😂❤
imagine this sung by either Bellatrix Lestrange or Narcissa Malfoy to Draco
Yeah, but still.
hahahaha 👍👍
+Richard Jones i can so see that
Richard Jones "Sirius is gone, but Narcissa's still around, to love this little lad..."
tuttifrutti1234560 i was thinking "voldy's gone, but trixies still around "
I genuinely loved Zira as she wasn't 100% bad- she was still a loving mother, a leader and a 'wife' or sorts to Scar. She is a truly great character!
Loving mother?, Nuka.....?.
Loving mother my ass.
She was completely evil, that doesn't take it away, and she wasn't a very good mother, her hate and desire for vengeance blinded her, she was totally consumed by it, she neglected her children and her whole pride, she did not take care of them as she should and didn't do what was best for them, but simply insisted on chasing and feeding her hatred and revenge, hurting everyone more and more until the end, not wanting to give up and forgiving the past, without wanting to and unwilling to move on, unwilling to free herself and therefore her whole pride from her bonds, clinging to that all-consuming hatred and vengeance until the very end. To the point of not caring about attacking her own pride and children, not caring about the death of her children, like what she said to Vitani at the end, "If you aren't going to fight, then you will die too", what kind of mother is that and says such a thing to her own children? That's how consumed she was by her wickedness, by her hatred and thirst for revenge, she no longer cared about anything but satiating them, all she did and wanted to do was chase them to the end, she didn't seek the best for her pride and her children or the best for their upbringing, she did not give them the love she had to give or raise them as she should have and they deserved, she fed them only with hatred and a thirst for revenge, that was always the only existing true and important goal in her heart which consumed everything, even her pride, her family, her children, she had nothing good in her, nothing good was left in her
@@doloresgronenberg5882I totally agree with you.
The interesting thing to me is that I can’t say she didn’t love her children deep, deep down. She’s genuinely upset at Nuka’s death, and says a prayer for him, but she ends up using it as further fuel for her quest for vengeance. She’s always been super interesting to me as a character
My inner child just died cuz I did not know the lyrics when I was a kid but now damn Disney is dark
She's scarier than all the other Disney villains. Heck not even Maleficent is that scary
Maleificent was actually not really a "bad guy", when given her movie
EmbertailLuvsCookies but in the original movie and on tv....
Oh. I just meant once the movie came out, but before, I agree with you
+kaito reader Indeed- and this, while Zira plays by the laws of physics and relative realism, aside from her anthropomorphism.
Just imagine if Zira had power on the scale of Hades, Jafar, or even Maleficent, all while retaining her cunning, hatred, and ambition.
+ryarod '_' I'm scared
whose fave parts also are "the joy of vengeance, testify!" and "then our flag will fly, against a blood-red sky" (;?
I feel like not a lot of people notice that the title doesn't only mean a lullaby she sings for Kovu. It's also her own lullaby, because thinking of revenge helps her sleep.
It's awesome that Yubaba sings this. Suzanne Pleshette was a perfect role for Zira.
I didn't know who acted for her until now! I hear Yubaba in the voice now that you said that haha
That last "lullaby" still sends chills down my spine.
The flag against the blood red sky part gives me chills but I've always wondered how on earth a lion in the middle of nowhere knew what a flag was.
Or drums for that matter
Or *shotguns* for that matter
Because they are humanized of course, they are humanized talking lions, with morals and values too, and a conscience about good and evil, even if some or many like in this case seem like they don't have any of that and are purely evil, although they have the capacity like anyone else and their way of being and behaviour and evilness and all they do with that is their entire fault and guilt and they have no excuse, like humans, like I said they are humanized lions
@@doloresgronenberg5882even if they’re humanised and have human emotions they still don’t know what a damn flag is
Sure they'd know. Nuka waves flag covered in dust during this song
While watching this part of the movie I found myself thinking 'How can that kid sleep with this loud ass lullaby!?'
Such an underrated movie with a bangin soundtrack. Zira was savage as hell! I love this song.
I did not notice as a kid how dark this song was or how sadistic Zira was. Brilliant...
Zira was the only vilain i actually was affraid as a kids. I now understand why, because her motivations are
completely understandable and you can't neccesarily call her evil.
I'm sorry but I don't understand her... she was so consumed by her need for revenge that she was willing to sacrifice her own cubs and did get one of them killed because of it....
I know this channel is 3 years old, but THANK YOU FOR BEING THE ONE LYRICS CHANNEL THAT DOESN'T HAVE POINTLESS CREDITS AT THE END OF THE VIDEO! THANK YOU SO MUCH! ;W;
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
Vitani is honestly precious.
i have seen this movie at least five times and this is the first time i realized how dark and twisted this song is
I love this song and how twisted it is! And I love who voices Zira's character! Amazing voice and growls!
RIP her voice actress
She did a masterpiece song like Tony Jay
Yes she did
@@Freethinker_94 do you know who's Tony Jay
@@editingman95 "Raziel... the failed assassin..."
I honestly like this more than Be Prepared
Same
You crazy? This and be prepared clashing for first
They are both so awesome I can't choose between them!
@@danny8063 Be Prepared is more groovy
My Lullaby is more vicious and dark
Who am I the only one who finds themselves loving the Disney Villains songs more as they grow up?
Best villain song in a movie EVER. Well, maybe it's a close second to Scar's Be Prepared but it's still good. 😈
Honestly the thing I look forward to the most in this song isn't Zira's madness showing through. It's Vitani's eagerness at the end.
Ill be honest, these lyrics are way easier to memorize than Be Prepared
funny enough, I memorized them subconsciously. watched the movie so much I just remembered
Scar: “Yes, my teeth and ambitions are bared….be prepared!”
Zira: “That’s my lullaby!”
My family and I went on a small road trip with my friend and I played some Disney music. Now, my mom and I freaking LOVE The Lion King and The Lion King 2, so we played all the songs for that. When I played this one and sang my absolute favorite line in Disney history "Though the battle may be bloody, that kind of works for me~" My friend, slowly looked over at me and said "Remind me to never fight with you again..."
Also, she' never seen any of The Lion King's and my mom and I are slightly offended
Her vocals... Just... Oh my...
I can't believe I forgot how absolutely killer this song was
Holy hell
Time to dig up the DVDs
great example of what happens when you raise children out of hatred
I like how you see Zira at the top of the precipice at the end of this song. It emphasizes her connection to Scar since she was his wife.
dark.
but i like it.
me
This song's atmosphere always stuck with me: comforting yet powerful.
I love her voice when she says "intensifies"
her daughter wasn't in that scene when she spoke.
that was her daughter
The most underrated Disney villain song imo. Just as good as Be Prepared and that ending gives me goosebumps.
Hearing this song makes the hair on my arms stand up, it’s really depressing and dark but also really cool and bad ass. I love That’s My Lullaby and Be Prepared so much.
I love how powerful the words are in this song, it truly explains how much Zira yearns to kill simba (my precious boy 😢) and seize the pride lands
Zira is honestly more terrifying than Scar. Scar was jealous of his brother. He was greedy & power-hungry, largely because he wanted to feel superior for once in his life. & he would do whatever it took, even killing Mufasa & trying to murder his newly-orphaned son.
Zira was on a war path from the beginning. She already planned to overthrow the kingdom with Scar, & raise their son as the next in line. After Scar was killed, she only became more hell-bent on a bloody uprising. She was hungry for power, & even hungrier for vengeance. This song is literally her fantasizing about brutally murdering the entire royal line. Not just that, but ravaging the Pride Lands that have always been against her, as a whole. Then building them up again under a new, merciless regime. She's god damn terrifying & it's awesome.
Easily one of the best villain songs ever written
I love this song. Even it idolizes war, it doesn't sugar-coat anything.
"Tomorrow your training intensifies...." (That line gives me chills.)
This is much darker than I remembered. Also the italian version is much more lighter...
I definitely prefer this one.
Actually Scar and Zira revealed their plans when they were singing. Scar's power was his mind and yet being coward destroyed all his plans. We could see how afraid he was when Simba returned, and he was planning coup. Meanwhile Zira planned her revenge and return to the pride lands. Both were scary to deal with, but Scar could hide his attention and Zira couldn't.
Is it just me, or does Zira seam like something went on and she went INSANE?!
Lions kill offspring of their rival so... her siblings or kids (dependent on how old she is) were killed. Also they had to move to a territory where there was little water and food
“Now the past I’ve tried forgetting, and my foes I could forgive, problem is I know it’s petty, but I hate to let them live” 😤 This line speaks to me on a deep and personal level 🤣
*thinks of Cersei Lannister and Joffrey* Wait wat
Tommen makes more sense
The Butcher Of Blaviken Not anymore…
*Y'know, just casually singing about murder in a kids movie.*
I know right it’s got absolutely brutal lyrics 😅
Intro:
Hush, my little one.
You must be exhausted
Sleep, my little Kovu
Let your dreams take wing
One day when your big and
Strong, you will be a king
Verse 1:
I've been exiled, persecuted,
Left alone with no defense
When I think of what that brute did,
I get a little tense
But I dream a dream so pretty, that
I dont feel so depressed
Cause it soothes my inner kitty and it helps me get some rest
Chorus:
The sound of simba's dying grasp,
His daughter squealing in my grasp
His lionesses mournful cry,
That's my lullaby
Verse 2:
Now the past I've tried forgetting
And my foes I could forgive
Trouble is, I know its pretty but
I hate to let them live
So you found yourself somebody
Who's chase Simba up a tree
Oh, the battle may be bloody,
But that kind of works for me
Chorus 2:
The melody of angry growls,
A counterpoint of painful howls
A symphony of death, oh my!
That's my lullaby
Bridge:
Scar is gone... but Zara's still around to love this little lad
Till he learns to be a killer
With a lust for being bad
Sleep ya, little termite uh I mean,
Precious little thing
One day when you're big and strong
You will be a king!
Pre chorus
The pounding of the drums of war,
The thrill of Kovu's mighty roar
The joy of vengeance
Testify!
Chorus 3:
I can hear the cheering
Kovu, what a guy
Payback time is nearing and then
Our flag will fly
Agaisnt a blood red sky,
That's my lullaby!
I just love how Zira flat out admits that she's just petty. And even better... disguises her bloodlust AS A FUCKING LULLABY!!! AND IT WORKS!!
So evil and scary, I love it
2:16 This part is my favourite
I'm planning on making a parody of this, and I realize just how much of this song doesn't need to be changed.
what're you going to parody it with?
Vitani has no right being so cute in this twisted song! XD
I can honestly see Vegeta singing this to Trunks, and Simba representing Goku, Scar representing Bulma or King Vegeta , and Simba's daughter being Gohan, Gotten, or Chichi! Or maybe King Vegeta singing this to baby Vegeta, with Simba representing Frieza, Scar representing Vegeta's mother, and Simba's daughter representing Frieza's son Kuriza!! ^.^
Oh my, you ready gave this a lot of thought, my friend. kudos!
*really
VeronicathePhoenix thank you ^.^
+Alyssa Bullock You're welcome!! :)
Omg, I could totes see that!! Well, if vegeta actually sang...
The first 5 seconds are so soothing but the second she leaves that 'chamber' it gets so much darker and revealing of her actual plan for her child
The first time I heard this song, I wasn't all that impressed, but now that I've heard it again, it seems to have greater qualities than I originally gave it credit for having.
how do lions fly a flag
I never questioned that until today.
It was a metaphor lol
Nuka actually does wave some sort of primitive flag during the song ("Kovu, what a guy!").
Never thought about that until now
Mischief Love shhh... Its just Disney logic. 😂😂
Pokémon version:
“One day when you’re big and strong,you will be Nidoking!”
Thanks for uploading this!!!
And for the info too! It's so sad that Suzanne Pleshette passed away a few years ago. I don't know very much of her work, but to have been involved in Lion King 2 and Spirited Away is amazing.
Zira = Cersei
I forgot who that was for a second, then I Googled Cersei, Saw the "Images for Cersei" option, and said, "Oh, yeah. Her. This girl(don't get triggered for assuming your gender based on your name) is right. Good eye."
terry wilson thanks :)
This song is about cersei and Joffrey 😂
Nah, Zira's actually scary and intelligent. XD
Scar is Sassy but Zira just has a swag.
She’s just badass 😂
Fun Fact Kovu is Swahili for Scar.
Another fact you could add is this is a very similar song, almost a direct re-telling - of Mordred's lullaby. Mordred's lullaby is about taking back the throne from King Arthur who "wrongly" took it from his sister, and she raises her son to believe King Arthur is his father who abandoned him and that he must take revenge by killing him.
'The sound of Simba's dying gasp' that literally gave me the chills. I'm from Spain and this song is not that dark in the Spanish version, but now that I listen to this...How could it make it on a kids movie? lol
This movie perfectly portrayed not only war, but what happens when you push those that oppose you too far into a corner. Simba was wrong to exile Scar's followers instead of holding them accountable for their actions and trying to help them see the light. It was a decision that has killed so many monarchs, dictators, and presidents throughout the ages and were it not for Kovu and Kiara, may have ended the entire kingdom itself.
Simba uprooted a huge chunk of his pride purely out of fear and because of it, for Zira at least, nothing could have satisfied her more than to see him and those he loved dying in painful deaths.
Scar was evil because he was inherently evil, Zira was evil because of betrayal and an idiot.
I grew up watching this movie, hearing this song daily, and to this day, I can't listen to this without shakeing.
Same here
There's a saying: hell hath no fury like a woman's scorn. Disney took that thought and ran with it.
okay but zira wasnt messing around. in the final battle, the outlanders were destroying the pride landers. if not for kiara and kovu, the outlanders would have definitely won, and zira would have avenged scar.
This is literally the first time I hear this song in original. I love it.
Aaah i miss the golden age before the live action and cgi came
I don't know why, but this song gives me goosebumps and makes me shed tears.
