It makes me feel as if i'm standing in the heart of Africa and for some reason Lion King always reminds me that life can be beautiful even though it can be rather bittersweet sometimes.

The Lion King has and will forever been my favorite Broadway Musical.

Goosebumps!

I saw this Rafiki live in London and she was even more amazing.

Always gives me goosebumps no matter how often I see this!!

This is such a powerful and uplifting song, and the Rafiki and Simba here are phenomenal!!!

She has to be the best rafiki I have EVER heard

I have been watching all the different versions of this song on you tube and this one is the most absolute best.😊❤❤that woman stole the show,she sang strongly,harmoniously,emotionally and dramatically.She was born for Broadway!!☺💪👍👍👍❤❤❤🌏🌍

Her voice is so sensational, just polished and perfection all in one pot :) Love the performance it was so amazing when I saw it many years back

As a singer, I aspire to have such power and spirit when I perform. This woman's voice is pure soul, power, beauty and truth. God bless ❤️

I love this! Very nice! I especially love how Simba and Rafiki have the neck and body movement of their animals! Like simba moves his neck very fiercely like a real lion would do! Overall though this song is great! A real Disney masterpiece!😃

She is flippin incredible! Breathtaking cried my whole way through the show when it came to Dublin.

No matter how many times i listen to this, tears always drop 👏👏👏👏

This makes me so happy. The energy that everyone has and the feeling I get from this is pretty much indescribable. It makes me want to cry, but also dance? I love musical theater a lot..

I’ve seen this show once, it was a birthday present. The best present I’ve ever received. My dad has seen it three times, and he said it’s the most spectacular show he‘ ever seen and he’d go again in a heartbeat.

i saw this show live and the feeling of watching this scene was indescribable. one of the most beautiful things ive ever seen. I would pay just to see this scene again

Ive been listening to this songs and oh lord I'm baffled .I'm just so inlove with the actors presence and voices.especially Rafiki. I'll be playing rafiki in a Kenyan version of lion king, and may all the odds be ever in my favor❤. I would love to do y'all proud

When she said 'Wait!' I sure waited and it was so worth it! Her expressions have a Midas Touch in em! Thumbs up to you all! So much life in one voice!

I think that Brown Lindiwe Mkhize’s performance of this song is the best performance of anything I have seen… ever. I’m brought to tears every time.

Finally saw this a few days ago and it was amazing. Set design, voices, acting. It’s a must see

Saw this in Sydney 2 months ago and honestly was the most INCREDIBLE show I have ever seen! The cast, the costumes and just EVERYTHING was all just amazing. If you are thinking of going to see it- DO IT! It is definitely worth it!

I’ve watched live many shows and this Rafiki is absolutely the best!

This has brought out the child in me ❤

goosebumb all over. She got a fantastic voice!

*I still can't f*cking belive that Lindiwe has no her own songs!I MEAN,COME ON PEOPLE!SHE DESERVES ONLY MASTERPIECES!THIS KIND OF VOICE CAN BE BORN ONLY ONCE*

Saw them in London several years ago. My first musical I've ever been in. So incredibly awesome. Cried while whatching and listening. Beautiful, love it, love it love it so much.

just amazing! voiceeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and acting .

This people have such powerful and beautiful voices I am crying tears of joy now this is so amazing and so beautiful and it speaks to me

Will never forget our 'Rafiki' from our Lion King Broadway show in Miami in 2008. Awesome performance!

Saw this west end show at the lyceum theatre a few weeks ago. Amazing experience, I would see this 100 times over and enjoy it every time

their voices are amazing.

Omg! What a voice! So powerful!

This Woman deserves a GRAMMY/TONY/WHATHEVER.

Music is poetry in sound and the stage management is top-notch.
