Elton John

When I was merely a young chap... My parents took me to see my first movie.
I am lucky to say that I grew up in an era where Disney original movies were legit.
This is why my parents took me to see "The Lion King,"

According to my father, I sat down and the film started... I sat there poised. I'm pretty sure my heart stopped for that whole hour, just so my brain, (as undeveloped as it was), could take in the sheer epicness.
When the film came to an end, and Elton John began to sing, "Can you feel the love tonight,"
My father said I cried myself to sleep that night... I could not stop crying.
And my father claims that it was because I did not want the movie to end.


I beg to differ.

It was clearly Elton John's voice.

I mean, have you ever heard that song?

I sincerely think, that if he replaced the words "Feel the love tonight," with "Hear my voice tonight,"
it would still have the same effect, only 500 times more effective, which would've at least resulted in theater A for Lion King going over to the theater playing Forest Gump singing... Of course about this time in Forest Gump, Jenny has just contracted AIDS, this probably results in more crying viewers and people from the Lion King theater getting a huge spoiler.

I mean, seriously though... check this out:

"And can you HEAR MY VOICE tonight
How it's laid to rest?
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best "



Elton John, you're the man.


Have a great night, friends.
