Random question for Freddi that I thought of while listening to the broadway version of The Lion King on the way home from rehersal...

In 'Lioness Hunt' 'Rafiki Mourns', 'One By One' as well as a few other songs in show, theres some sort of african chanting, and I was just wondering if you knew if any of it translated into english or if it was there to set the mood and add some harmony?

How do I PM them? Is that on the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of the page?

Can I add to that and ask what The Circle of Life is in English?

Isn't it like "Look there's a lion and a tiger" or something like that?

'NTG, this is why the board is anonymous (at least for those of us who don't use our own photos in our avatars)'


Hmmm. I blew that a while ago... pic as avatar, name,and even footage of me singing in 'Canaan Days'...

Now why the heck did I do that?


And whats all this about coughing? I guess its not that big of a deal but if someone would fill me in that would be great

poor steven...

i hope you get that worked out... I get hundreds of spams per day let along emails... (thank God for filters and such!!!)

as to being careful about pics..

it came instinctively - but it was solidified by Vanessa's little Miss America ordeal (and since then how many celeb ordeals?) I've never wanted to be a person who pimped my personal life to help my career (as so many do these days - can you say "Ben Affleck"?)

I always wanted to be like Paul Newman and JoAnne Woodward or those other classy hollywood types (Like Hanks for example) who manage to keep your mind on their WORK and out of their lives.

Glory, that clip sounded lovely, but no one could make out your face. No worries.

I hate the JLo types who are more famous for being famous than for great acting. Earn your fame.

wow - take one pm and you get WAAAYY behind..

okay - Lion King

all of the African translates because they are all real languages

Zulu
Kosa
Swahilli
and one other that I can't remember or spell - I'd have to check my notes....

yes in Circle - Nan zingonya ma ba ki ti baba

(there goes the lion and the lepoard with his spots) it's a traditional way of introducing royalty (who always wore lion or lepoard skin robes)

okay - still catching up

I agree and really despise stars who use personal tragedies as publicity stunts (I know its not always intentional) but that's just sick.

heh tiff i saw jeopardy here earlier on the east coast -- the way he loses is EXTREMELY frusterating... i was yelling at the tv...

Thats one thing I dont think I could handle about being a modern day celebrity, I like having my privacy.. I wish the public could respect the fact that just because a person is a celeb it doesn't give us the right to know every little detail about their lives. Celebs are people too, we dont own the,m.. They are just doing their jobs.

( I will admit to moments of sheer fangirliness, but who doesn't have those?)

[JoAnne1]

that guy finally lost?

how much did he end up with?

and yes, no talent celebs get WAY up on my last nerve *snap* knwameen? (that's ghetto for "Do you know what I mean?")

heh me too... never met a celebrity though

oh, acutally, once my dad noticed one of the beach boys in the airport (he's a fan) and we said hi to him and i was like 8 and told him i liked the beach boy episode on full house.

There's a line between expected exposure and being a famewhore. I mean, you don't need to be a hermit, but we don't need to know about every fight with your significant other. Show a little class in the spotlight. (Though that's probably easier said than done)

Nifty translation, Fredi.

fredi - he won like 2.5 million -- and he's STILL working, loves his job he said. i respect that totally.

in my newspaper they have a little "jeopardy watch" box on the entertainment page that keeps track of how much he's won...

[HeyMrMusic]

Posted: 11/30/04 at 10:42pm

Ah, I love you all, but I hope the mods fix my problem soon! Haha.

Didn't the guy get over $2 million? Wow, that's insane.

How does he lose? I missed it.

"famewhore" I like that. May I use it?

I always warn my students about getting into this biz for the fame - it's more fleeting than the money...

and you're right cam - it's hard - I mean you guys are WAY COOL - but soooooo many are not.

there literally would be people at my house during RENT - going through my trash, etc...

it was sick - and that's "just" a B'way show - ya know?
