- Originally released back in 1994, Walt Disney Animation Studio’s The Lion King took the world by storm upon its release. With original music by Elton John and Tim Rice, the film follows the coming of age of the lion, Simba, who must follow in the footsteps of his father, Mufasa, and take his rightful place as king. With a stunning cast, including Matthew Broderick, James Earl Jones, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Jeremy Irons, and more, the music has left a lasting impression as strong as the film itself.
- The Lion King original motion picture soundtrack was originally released by Walt Disney Records on April 27, 1994. It was the fourth-best-selling album of the year on the Billboard 200 and the top-selling soundtrack.] It is the only soundtrack to an animated film to be certified Diamond (10× platinum) by the Recording Industry Association of America. Hans Zimmer's complete instrumental score for the film was never originally given a full release, until the soundtrack's commemorative twentieth anniversary re-release in 2014. The Lion King also inspired the 1995 release Rhythm of the Pride Lands, with eight songs by Zimmer, Mark Mancina, and Lebo M.
