Do you think CYFTLT fit the end credits?

I didn't. It doesn't fit the mood of the movie and it has barely anything to do with the plot or any of its themes. It's a pretty song but just because it's pretty doesn't mean it fits the end credits. Do you think the song fit?

Yeah, I kind of agree with you on that. CYFTLT is a wonderful song, and I like it well enough, but it does look like they would've used a more epic score for the end credits.

Do you think Elton John's song, Runaway Train, which was used for Lethal Weapon 3 would have been a better choice? Here's the song:

It does sound like a song about Simba getting over his fathers death.

I was okay with it. After all, the movie was finished. And I thought it was a pretty song to listen to as I read the credits ^^

I agree with this. It's a nice, relaxing song to listen to, now the movie is over.

It's okay I guess. Doesn't matter to me what song is playing. Not that I watch credits. :lol:

Yep, I think the song fits the situation. Simba came back to the Pride Land also because of Nala, and the last scene shows the two together with their son. Also, CYFTLY is one of my fave songs. :mrgreen:

I don't know if it was the best choice for the end credits. During the end of the song "King of pride rock" when the circle of life is sung as a chorus could have been made into a whole song for the credits; and I'd have preferred that. But since it's the credits I don't mind too much.

i watched it again and i think it fits fine....
credits in animation films usually just play the most popular song from the movie in the "Pop version" ( @ least where disney is concerned. {lion king - Can you feel the love tonight, Beauty and the beast - Beauty and the beast, Pocohantas - Colors of the wind, Hercules - think it was "Go the distance" dont remember.ect.....})
