As close as the human race has ever gotten to perfection is this opening

The sun rising is literally one of the most iconic parts of Disney movie history

The Lion King is the best live theatre experience a person could ever have. The most amazing, beautiful and soul happy show I've EVER seen.

Just saw this today. I started sobbing in the middle of this song, it was just so beautiful and powerful! A movie I adored as a kid coming to life so perfectly, I was overwhelmed! Excellent show, I would see it again in a heartbeat!

as soon as the sun starts to rise in the back I cry, every damn time. what a beautiful piece of music.

When you wished the 2019 version of Lion King had this much emotion, color, and emoting/acting. This is one Broadway musical I will always cherish.

The first note wasn't even finished and I had already started crying. 👍🏼

Every time those dang giraffes enter I always cry. Every freaking time

Her voice is so powerful! As a singer, I understand how beautiful her voice is.

I cry every time I watch this. No words can describe how beautiful this is

This was all for the new prince, heir to the thrown. It shows how much the animals respect Mufasa. This is really such a powerful song! Still to this day, Lion King is my BEYOND favorite movie! Simply nothing can match its beauty and power. 🦁👑😻😻😼🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁

The best opening to a musical, EVER!!

I lived in London for a couple of years and went and watch...OH MY GOD THIS SHOW IS PLANTED IN MY HEART SO DEEPLY I COULDN'T EXPLAIN HOW I FEEL EVERY TIME I HEAR THESE SONGS..Absolutely amazing.. (and expensive, by the way, but I can tell why!) and also one of the best soundtracks Hans Zimmer composed, in my opinion ❤😭

I'm crying so hard rn. The love and craftsmanship this team puts into Broadway play is so incredible. You never see this anymore, but it's so good to see that there's performances like this who pay such great attention o every little detail. I saw this in Spokane 9 years ago and I have to see it again.

Saw this today and got goosebumps!

God why does this make so emotional?!

This is just a video in KZfaq and is already one of the most powerfull things I have ever seen. Tears, chills, and a lump in my throat, just in a 4 minutes video.

I like the movements of the cheetah puppet. I wanna see this so bad! 🦁😭 so powerful

I saw this when I was about 7 and hadn't listened to it in the intervening 12 years but now I have goosebumps and a major flashback to the wonder of seeing it live

I have to listen to this for my Drama class's Africa project, and I love this performance! it's full of emotion! 💕

I saw it Saturday in Jacksonville! The most amazing experience ever!! I will see it again and again!! BRAVO!!! So beautiful and moving, I was brought to tears!!!

It doesn't matter how many times I watch this. I cry EVERY single time. Absolutely Amazing!

I've seen this 2x on Broadway, 1x in Baltimore and 1x in LA. More that 15 years later, even THIS video has me crying on KZfaq! It is an awesome awesome spectacle!

The costumes are spot on! They did them so perfectly! I give them a 100%! Just beautiful!

When they bow down I always cry there’s just something about that moment that gets me every time

Nothing melts my heart to see those two Giraffes entering the stage, and the two guys (Gazelle) praising...."Bayetheeee, ndaba zintha, wena we ndlovu....Helelele, hoza baba...Siyabonga Baba........"

I really wish I could watch this live. This alone gave me goosebumps. It's perfect!

I wish they'd preform at my funeral lol

I've seen it in London twice truly breath taking they even warmed the theatre it was the most amazing thing me & my husband have ever seen

I had to put a blanket on from all the chills I got it’s so good

Even though I don't know the lyrics, This makes me want to sing it so Badly!😁

When I was in 5th grade, our grade was chosen to go see this show because of an exhibit we did on the power of language, it was so mesmerizing and astonishing. I will never forget the experience.

Saw this yesterday the music moved me to tears in the film and done the same in reality and awesome amazing show.

Simply put, this is phenomenal!

So good!!!!! Best live version I've seen!

jeeezzzlouise...this song hits me so hard every god damn time..like "its awesome gonna watch it" 15 sec in and the after effect of cutting onions at work kick in....

I don't know why but it always gets to me when the animals stop dancing and start to bow.

This presentation reminds me 8 yrs ago, we’re performing with the Special kids in Zapatera Elementary School, Philippines and we won Champion. I never expect the children can do it, it’s so touching that makes me cry…So amazing…Thanks to all cast of Lion King, it inspired the special children to do their roles.❤❤❤

Have seen this beautiful show two times and it’s glorious. I tell you now, this is one show you MUST see.

I have seen the show two times. It's the best thing I've ever seen. ❤️

I saw this at the end of April last year at the Minskoff Theatre on Broadway. I have never cried so much as it was such a shot to my childhood.

This was such a moving piece of theatre I’ve ever seen, was so beautifully done. The Australian cast are perfection

I saw something very similar to this in the London Theaters and I loved it so much the way they use there bodies to become the animal just amazes me I wish I could see it again ❤️❤️❤️

I saw his yesterday and I cried at this part! It's so powerful and amazing to see the animals come down the aisles in the theatre and surround you! The voices and costumes fit so perfect. Chills listen no right now!

this song is so so moving. Seeing it live is even better!

saw this live last weekend and I CRIED IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF THEATER I HAVE SEEN IN MY LIFE

Cradle of life. Visit Kenya, it's a nice place. Economy is growing and people are friendly

Still takes my breath away every time!

I have to say I love the West end this looks so good every time I see this I smile a lot is so good x

OMG I LOVE how they just appear in the crowd!!!!

how is it possible to dislike this mastery. im so upset i wasnt able to see the whole thing live in person, but at least this offers a small taste of this spectacular rendition of the Lion King:) brought me to tears~

I bet even those two old guys from the Muppets, Waldorf and Statler, would find it hard to criticize this show.

I just saw the full thing and it was the best thing I have ever seen 😱😫😫😭😭😭

I've been twice and I've cried both times. The show is beyond amazing

I'm going to see this with my Aunt and Uncle soon. I can't wait!

Best....opening....ever! When I saw “The Lion King”, the audience erupted into an epic rock concert cheer the moment the elephants appeared.....it was awesome!

I get goosebumps watching this every time cos it takes me right back to that night at the minskoff theatre!! One of the best nights of my life! My childhood made right there

The MOST powerful, beautiful and healing opening to a Musical, perhaps EVER.....

I was fortunate enough to see it three times in person. It’s an amazing show!

uh oh! 66 people's eyes were so blurry from tears that they mistook the thumbs down button for the thumbs up

I’ve seen this on stage three times and cried every damn time haha! This show is done so brilliantly. Every scene with Rafiki is boss.

I love the lion king and this song as well because we experience their kind of culture.

Best live version. Ever! 🙌🙌🙌

Pure magic!! Incredible!

I'm legit crying because the performance is beautiful

I love this song so much

Who’s looking forward to The Lion King 2019?

seen this on Broadway. it was truly amazing ❤

Who else loves the lion king?

This is truly one of the most beautiful pieces of art ever crafted.....just staggering.....

Took my family to see this in the summer of 2018and saw it twice. Love it love it love it

Every character is so graceful Just beautiful

Australian Cast Is So Good!

Absolutly magnificent, acting and voices

0:30 - 0:36 You can actually hear the power in his voice

This is the most amazing show I have ever seen.... I would go see it 5 more times....

I watched lion king live in London and it was just phenomenal! I have never had them kind of goosebumps before. (Aguerooooo!!! was close tho)

I went to this twice in Edinburgh and was blown away everytime 🥰🥺

This is the only thing I don’t mind watching for school 😃👍

saw this in NYC on Saturday and can say this was life changing

I loved the show want to go see it again😄💞💙💓❤💗💕💛💖💚💜💝😘😍🙃

My mom just surprised me with money to buy tickets for when they come to Indiana this Fall. We were watching this video when she gave it to me and I just sobbed. Now every time I watch this video I cry all over again.

I literally cried when I saw this myself.

this gives me the same feelings it did when I saw it live

so beautiful, it brought me to tears

This gives me life😍

i cry...no matter how many times i watch this...

I saw this show last sunday (labor day wknd) and it blew my mind. If u visit nyc, u got to go watch a Broadway show. 140 dollar to watch it and it's all worth it. It truly lives to its hype.

Watched it last night and WOW!! Going again!

I saw this musical few years ago, and after looking at this video, it seems like I'm traveling back to the past.

Crying my fucking eyes out. This is too beautiful to exist

This Makes Me Cry Hard Core Just Love It So Much I Use To Not Understand Why People Cry When They're Happy Or Find Something Like Really Beautiful But I Get It Now

그냥 눈물이 난다.. 행복의눈물

Best quality Lion King Circle of Life video on KZfaq! Thank you for sharing.

عرض رائع جدا حضرته في نيويورك في نوفمبر 2017

Nothing beats lion king

Lord of host... This is extraordinarily amazing.

No doubts the BEST performance of all.

Saw this a few years back...amazing!

I went to see this in Atlanta Georgia and it was the best thing I have seen
