Oh, and the answer to the other question is:

1 John Lennon's 'Woman' - for one week (fair enough)

2 Joe Dolce - Shaddap you face - for three weeks (Midge Ure must have been pulling his teeth out)

"Elton John" is just a nom de plume et lunettes massives.

Music adds to a film more than simply filming.

If your children, or grandchildren didn't love the Lion King, then there's something wrong with their upbringing!

As for the music, written by Elton John; if you can't like this, then your own upbringing is in question!!

My 7 year old son doesn't love the Lion King. And I wouldn't put it in the top 10 children's animated films of all time, probably not in the top 20.

I don't know what my other children think about it, as I lost interest in them years ago.

My kids [and I, frankly] liked The Emperor's New Groove years ago. It had a song in it by Sting. He's a pop star who changed his name like Elton John did.

I think Sting acquired the nickname from friends rather than choosing it.

Elton John took his name from Mr Elton and Mr John .... blues artists I think.

I hope Mr Sumner has the copyright on the name "Sting".

We bought this out of a bargain DVD bucket for my son on a rainy day when we were all tired and just wanted to crash. One of the most underrated Disney films. It's wonderful.

And a case study that you cannot plan to guarantee artistic success. The production was a shambles. Sting's music has to be dropped from the main film, and he was not happy. I bet they were pleased just to get it out the door. And yet it really works, and eventually spawned a sequel and TV series.

By comparison, Sleeping Beauty was painstakingly crafted with no expense spared. And is possibly the dullest Disney film of all time. It is excruciating at times.

Have you heard of Regina Spektor? Check her song called "Blue" [it may be the correct title but I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding on youtube.

I'd be interested in your feedback.

Great example of a band with talent for music and lyrics.
