Us Navy's 'Lion King' Performance Has Fans Applauding Instantly

A woman in a white uniform sings into a microphone, raising her hand expressively.

Many people might think the men and women of our Armed Forces are battled-hardened warriors who serve at home and abroad for the cause of freedom, and while that's true, these fierce warriors can also carry a tune!

With incredible singers all dressed in white, the US Navy band performed "circle of life," the classical soundtrack for Lion King. It starts with a lady, the lead singer, singing fiercely.

The background singers, in one smooth accord, echoed a chorus. A co-lead singer, with trembling alto, rang out shrilling tunes. Soon, the instrumentalists joined the flow. The sound was pleasant, and the connection...super smooth.

The first lead singer, with an impressive pitch, voiced out the verse of the song. Sweet chorus followed, giving what was a magnificent sight enthralling harmonies. Like it wasn't enough, they tuned the music up.

The pianist had it going with fast brassy piano sounds. The band voiced the chorus of "he lives in you," as another lead singer broke in with a fine soprano. It was dynamite.

Their energy could be felt as their sounds enveloped the hearts of their listeners; you would be lost in it. The instrumentalists took over. The flutist was off-the-chart—releasing sweet-sounding sonorities.

With rising roars, the choristers ascended to a tremendous climax. It was perfect; not one to be described by words but be felt by the heart and enjoyed with the ears.
