Phil Collins didn’t have to go so hard with this song, but he did. He did that for us.

"It's just a movie about a boy growing up with animals, make it simple." Phill Collins channeling the primordial force of music itself: "No."

"A PARADISE UNTOUCHED BY MAN" hits so much harder than it has to

“No words describe a mother’s tears No words can heal a broken heart” My brother Andrew committed suicide at age 18 last May. Lyrics like this didn’t really have a lot of meaning to me until then; I flew to Sacramento the day my other brother Daniel informed me of the tragedy. Upon arrival, I saw my mother, pale as a ghost and motionless as stone. I’ve had my share of grieving since then, but Phil Collins’ lyrics hit perfectly here. My mother’s tears couldn’t be described with words, my mother’s broken heart couldn’t be healed with words. “A dream is gone, but where there’s hope…” On the other side of adversity is a blessing of equal or greater magnitude. The dream of creating epic memories with Andrew and changing the world with him is gone, but that just means one door is closed and another opened. Seven months later and we’re already seeing some of that, there is no denying this tragedy has brought us all closer together as a family. I didn’t have a human-to-human relationship with Daniel nor my sister Abby until this; we just co-existed for their entire lives and hardly actually knew each other. When I visited them again for Christmas, my mother told me that she and I are the only two people Abby feels like she can have a conversation with. That’s pretty huge for me as an older brother. If that much blessing can be seen in just seven months, can you imagine what will happen in 40 years?

At the beginning of the song, I like how the drums and whatnot start to crescendo and start to get more and more intense. And then, right at the peak, the drums are super intense, like some epic, tense Tribal music from an epic high-budget motion picture. Phil Collins did not have to go that hard, but he did it for us.

"No words describe a mother's tears" so so sadly true

Let it Go? Nah. We got Phil Collins

This song gives me all the feels... It's like telling a story

“somewhere something is calling for you” something about this line is so nostalgic

The part that hits me is " no words describe a mothers tears no words can heal a broken heart" Don't know why it speaks to me so loudly :'(

I love Phil's voice, so smooth

Man, the Phil Collins music in Tarzan, just... it just NAILS IT. Hits home. Is spot on. Fantastic. Every song is a masterpiece, I really like I could run as fast as I can to it. It is that rare kind of music that can make you feel closer to nature, yet completely human at the same time. That's really difficult to achieve in this time and age.

the orchestration in this song is actually amazing

"No words describe a mother's tears. No words can heal a broken heart." Always gets me emotional.

This is indeed one of the best songs ever, but what is really sad the new disney movies fail to even come close to the greatness of older disney movies like this and whatnot.

I'm a 22 year old bodybuilder who likes to think hes tough but in reality I still listen to Tarzan to motivate me lol

"A paradise untouched by man".. if there was any place like that...

Man, I just turned 19, on the 19th and this was literally my childhood growing up. I'll never forget even playing this on the PS1. How time flies. Sad to see Disney don't make movies like these anymore. This is the song of my life.

Man, I'm 19, about to be 20 soon and this was literally my childhood growing up. I'll never forget even playing this on the PS1. How time flies. Sad to see Disney don't make movies like these anymore. This is the song of my life, literally, and the soundtrack. The lyrics and everything, always bring tears too me espically with the powerful messages, and all I've been through. Phil Collins, my all time favorite legend, the guy who helped me throughout my life.

This song is straight bangers, I remember being obsessed with this theme as a kid and when I got the DVD for this movie, I'd replay the opening scene again and again to hear this dope song. You have no idea how much joy I felt when the song was reused in the Legends of Tarzan animated show.

Why does Phil Collins always make me tear up?! So beautiful.

Frozen: Let it go is a good song Phil Collins: Hold my beer.

90s kids baby. I'm so thankful to my parents for making me watch this movie when i was a kid and grow up with these beautiful songs. Whattay time it was

This song always me cry profusely. It is so beautiful, and the lyrics speak to anyone!

Phil Collins songs have been getting stuck in my head for weeks and weeks. Not that I'm complaining. He's a terrific musician.

By far the best interpretation of Tarzan I've seen so far. Aside from sounding great, I thought Phil Collins' soundtrack having Phil himself sing what the characters were feeling came off much more natural than if the had everyone singing show tunes. I know I'm gonna catch a lot of hate for saying that, but yolo.

Wow. Everyone actually came back for this. :o

born in 95 i watched this movie when it came out in 99, im now 18 years old, holy nostalgia

I always found this song gorgeous. It teaches a valuable lesson. No matter how much different we may appear to be on the outside, we are all still a family. No matter what.

This song was my intro to Phil Collins. From the moment I first heard his voice, I fell in love with his music. It saddens me deeply that he can no longer sing, but at least we have these treasures. All hail Phil Collins!

Phil Collins has done some of my favorite songs in existence. Fills me with warmth this song.

whoa. when phil starts singing i got chills. nostalgia!

Can't... stop... crying...

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Simply wonderful and heartening. :)

That voice is irreplaceable. Phil Collins is a true legend.

This song is legendary.

I almost always nearly break into tears when I come to the "Somewhere something is calling for you" part.

I have danced for my entire life and from the moment I heard this I knew I was going to do a solo to it. 12 years later, it still remained so powerful to me, and I danced to this for my senior solo. This is without a doubt my favorite song ever written, let alone a disney movie

Not a single rhyme, and still beautiful lyrics

"Softly tread the sand below your feet now" that line gives me the chills. :)

Ah, Tarz, my favorite Dis movie.

Honesty, my all time favourite movie since my childhood. Legendary soundtrack by Phil Collins, The Cast, the storyline, and the characters. Till this day, this movie and soundtrack brings me joy and a bit of tears to my eyes. If you asked me to describe this movie, I couldn't fit it all in this box. This film once out carried many childhoods espically with my generation, and some of these music literally give sentimental meaning to my past experiences, and life. Pure legend of a film.

I think that Phil Collins wasn't as appreciated as he deserved to be. So i would like to say Thank You. Thank you Phil Collins for making my childhood an amazing one. For singing songs that inspire people.

i just had a medium reading today - didn't expect it - thought a psychic reading - i lost my father last year - under difficult circumstances - and the first thing she said to me on connecting was to play this song that he wanted to communicate with me. i've never heard it before and am sure he didnt/ he died 90 odd. but we fell out and this song summarises so much especially the mothers tears bit .... and to look up and look ahead... two worlds one family. oh mi im crying writing this as im just playing it for the first time... now. so many other things she told me that no stranger could ever know - even the poem i read for him in the funeral - I made up that she recounted first line of each verse - about looking for him in nature and so much else. astonishing. So touched.

somehow I wouldn't surprised if I getting lost in middle of jungle and heard sound of Phil Collins from a distance.

The day God spoke to me through the Holy Spirit I felt like this song connected me to him and how he helped me release years of pure unadulterated hate and anger but when I felt his spiritual loving arms surround me, I cried so hard that my father was shocked at me finally letting go of what happened to me in my past. This song also helped me survive through 7 years of child abuse and kept me connected to my dad from miles away in Escanaba Michigan and my dad was in Detroit Michigan and everytime my dad wished me happy birthday, I could feel his love in my darkest hours. His spiritual love as a father to me his one and only son was what kept me from turning into the joker back then in my darkest hours and from commiting Seppaku. Phil Collins and Disney was what kept me from letting my flames of life, of survival from going out to the day I was rescued and saved. Phil Collins, thank you for making songs like this that can spiritually save a person from madness and from their inner demons. This is me speaking from personal experience

Listening to this song as a mother.. really hits hard and brings tears to my eyes

Was stuck in my head, now, at 12:23 in the morning, I'm finally listening to it

3 minutes of 'went back in time and relived childhood'

this song is lit AF

everytime I hear this is wanna pick a fight with somebody 2x bigger than me and get my ass whooped until the bridge of this song and make a miraculous comeback while breathing hard and panting while the crowd cheers me on

Decided to watch Tarzan last night as a spur of the moment thing. Hadn't seen it in ages. Totally missed it. I was so happy I actually remembered most of the lyrics.

I always loved the intro of this song

This melody is just amazing , and the words make it so much better!!

Same goosebumps every time I listen....can't get enough of those drums they light up my spirit.

Literally just turned 19 years old, on the 19th, and I just have to say every year I always listen to this song since its my childhood when I was growing up. I honestly can't believe how fast time passes, I'll always remember playing this on the PS1 with my twin brother legit so many memories, I literally remember it as if it was yesterday. It's honestly so sad to see that Disney longer makes shows like these & how fast time passes. Whenever I listen to this song, I can't just help but remember the countless memories I have with it even shedding tears when I hear it. Truly amazing, and my childhood song. The song of my life and how its described. 💙🎉

We grew up in a time that we should cherish! I'm sad for my younger siblings who wont be able to live the magical movies of Disney that I lived

Oh my god....This is the first time i listen to this song after MANY years....I got shivers in my spine,tears in my eyes...Cant describe the emotions and memories coming back to me at the moment...Pure bliss to our eyes,Disney was...

"No words describe a mothers tears no words can heal a broken heart" always makes me cry

He didn’t have to go that hard, but he did. Bless you Phil Collins

This song makes me emotional :') it's my absolute favourite film of all time. Ngl I cry everytime I hear this :3

Ah Tarzan,never before has a movie made me want to learn how to surf on a frickin tree (I mean seriously,how does he do that?!)

“No words can heal a broken heart”

I will always love this song!

So we all came back to this huh

i cried a lot with this song

Beautiful song! I love Phil Collins' voice :)

Brings back memories

I cried...when you lose a child, life is hell. :'(

God. Phil Collin's voice always gives me shivers, he's just so GOOD! I miss when Disney would have him perform music for them, and when Disney was good.

That's the great thing about movies and music. They never die.

I couldn't think of a better artist to do these songs than Phil Collins: he did a masterful job on this and l'm glad he did!!

The comment section opened up after more than a decade, it seems... 🌄

I always come here for a listen but honesty, my all time favorite movie since my childhood. Legendary soundtrack by Phil Collins, The Cast, the storyline, and the characters. Till this day, this movie and soundtrack brings me joy and a bit of tears to my eyes. If you asked me to describe this movie, I couldn't fit it all in this box. This film once carried out many childhoods espically with my generation, and some of these music literally give sentimental meaning to my past experiences, and life. Pure legend of a film. How time flies though. On Tuesday, the 19th of April, I'll be 20. How I wish we could all go back in time to live these days. "Though there's no one there to guide you, no one to take your hand But with faith and understanding, you will journey from boy to man." The lyrics to my life, with all I've been through. The greatest soundtrack of all time.

What an enchanting voice...

I LOVE THIS SONG!

It makes me think of growing up and making a family of my own where my family now would be the other "world"

This song cheers me up every time I listen to it.

You are dead on the inside if you don’t get chills listening to this song

OHMAICOW!!! This movie has so many memories!! I always LOVED this song and now I finally see before me the name of the true mastermind of this song that fits that wonderful movie so well :') Phil Collins FTW!

i nearly cried since this music was so touching

Put your faith in what you most believe in. Two worlds, one Genesis.

Gives me strength , 2018 anyone?

Ahhhh. A song about my favorite Greek legend . Hercules

How could a movie like Tarzan with an upbeat soundtrack that Phil Collins created be so underrated for a Disney movie

Phil Collins... Thank you. Thank you so much for your fantastic songs. They really help me press forward in life, even if I'm having a breakdown. They inspire me to keep moving forward and never doubt the future. Disney during this time was just the best.

This reminds me of where I wanna live when i grow up! :) I will soon be coming your way AFRICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

2:51 that flute in the background gave me chills

23 years old and still love watching Disney movies. Now expect a babygirl in February, I cannot wait to watch all the movies i enjoyed growing up. I enjoy listening to the soundtracks on KZfaq

Does anyone else get emotional thinking about what is happening in the movie while listening to these lyrics/watching the movie or just me? 💔🙏

Everytime I listen to this man's lyrics it puts me in a great mood. Even in horrible times..

I wish that we all living things live wild and Free as we all used to in a age long time ago
