Disney's Karaoke Series: Lion King
Disney's Karaoke Series: Lion King
Customer Review: Not good.
At first, I was excited to see it has been publish. But when I listened to it, I found that it was so different from my anticipation. Before I listened to this, I thought all the songs with vocals would be the original versions in the movie. And I thought the instrumental versions are just like the background music in the original songs. But the songs with vocal in this album were not sung by the initial performers, then it made all these songs strange, and all the initial comical, romantic and wonderful feelings lost. The instrumental versions are not good either. Some vocals haven't been removed. What has been removed was only the principal vocal. I just couldn't figure out why some vocals were retain in the instrumental version. Can they be called instrumental? I think this album is not good, even I can say that it is the worst of Disney Karaoke Series.
Customer Review: Timon and Pumbaa songs done horribly.
When I first got this Karaoke CD I was extremely excited. FINALLY, some Lion King music without vocals , I thought, and I was thoroughly impressed with everything. That is, until I got to my two favorite songs from The Lion King soundtracks: Hakuna Matata and Warthog Rhapsody. Some idiot took a cheap keyboard and did horrible renditions of the songs, rendering them to ghastly interpretations. The Hakuna Matata on this CD is the Broadway version-- which is an amazing version originally-- but it was menacingly torn asunder and put together again with some sort of synthesizer that basically destroyed the instruments, forming them into a song like something you'd hear from a "My First Piano Lesson" songbook. The rest of the songs such as Can You Feel The Love Tonight, Circle of Life and I just Can't Wait to Be King are the movie renditions simply taken from the actual MOVIE with the vocals removed, not redone. It makes you wonder why those morons in the recording studio redid Hakuna Matata and Warthog Rhapsody in the first place, when they could've just taken the original tracks from the soundtracks and removed the lyrics. And why the heck was the song Queen of the Jungle on there? That's not even a Lion King song! Besides that, the disc is not a complete waste. Enjoy singing all the other tracks, but stray away from Hakuna Matata and Warthog Rhapsody. I recommend looking up Priddis and getting their Lion King Karaoke CDs instead, they're actually good. This just shows how much Disney has evolved into a corporation based on quick money instead of enjoyment.
Disney's Sing Along Songs - Peter Pan: You Can Fly!
Customer Review: VHS vs. DVD
I had this on VHS growing up, and it was a daily big deal to watch it. I was highly dissappointed to learn that, upon purchasing the DVD, there are two songs that were left out. These are: Lady And The Tramp: He's A Tramp Little Mermaid: Under The Sea. Deffinatley go for the VHS if you wnat the full effect.
Customer Review: Peter Pan-You Can Fly!
This movie is one of the classics. Here are the songs: "You Can Fly"-Peter Pan "The Beautiful Briny"-Bedknobs and Broomsticks "Colonel Hathi's March"-The Jungle Book "I've Got No Strings"-Pinocchio "Step in Time"-Mary Poppins "When I See an Elephant Fly"-Dumbo "The Merrily Song"-The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad Just buy it. Nothing good will come of it.
