Hvem sang can you feel the love tonight?
Nathan Lane
Sangen skulle efter planen denne gang kun synges af Timon og Pumbaa, men Elton John kunne ikke lide konceptets komiske karakter. John erklærede, at "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" skulle følge "Disneys tradition for store kærlighedssange", og at den kunne "udtrykke løvernes følelser for hinanden langt bedre end en dialog". Det endelige resultat var, at sangen hovedsageligt blev sunget af en stemme uden for skærmen (Kristle Edwards) med korte replikker fra Simba (Joseph Williams) og Nala (Sally Dworsky) og start- og slutdelen af Timon (Nathan Lane) og Pumbaa (Ernie Sabella).  Den indeholdt også Zulu-stemmer, der, selv om de for det meste var dæmpet i filmversionen, var meget mere fremtrædende i de audio-only-udgivelser.

The song was then planned to be sung this time only by Timon and Pumbaa, but Elton John disliked the comical nature of the concept. John declared that "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" was meant to follow "Disney's tradition of great love songs", and that it could "express the lions' feelings for each other far better than dialogue could". The final result was the song mainly sung by an off-screen voice (Kristle Edwards) with short lines from Simba (Joseph Williams) and Nala (Sally Dworsky), and the beginning and end parts by Timon (Nathan Lane) and Pumbaa (Ernie Sabella).  It also included Zulu vocals that, while mostly muted in the on-screen version, were much more prominently featured in the audio-only releases.
