    Two people, no effect, no props, no choreo, just singing. But it feels deep to my heart. I love the way he act when she touches his lion face.

    I love this performance with Heather Headley and Jason Raize, and the latter's interpretation of Simba is so sweet. :)

    Jason had so much ahead of him, so much he could have done. I'm sad because he must have been in so much emotional pain to have taken his life. When I look into his eyes in the interview he looks like a child. I still cry when I see any of these videos of his work, I'm crying now. I hope you are in a kinder gentler place now Jason. You are missed.

      Well unfortunately Jason is in hell. He isn’t in a gentle place he’s in a more extremely hot place called hell. That is because he commuted suicide and the Bible states that since Judas betrayed Jesus and committed suicide you will go to hell if you also commit suicide. It’s sad that he’s in hell, but that’s what you get when you give up your life.

      @@MrStars-bj9yf The Bible states a lot of ridiculous things and that is because it was written by man. Written by men and used to create order. I wonder how much of the Bible you follow, and how much you ignore. Hope you have never worn blended fabrics (polyester), eaten shellfish, had sex before you were married. Your lack of empathy and understanding is disheartening, and far from the model Jesus Christ taught.

    Today, February 3, 2024 marks 20 years since Jason's death. It's a shame he decided to take his own life too soon. I don't judge him, he had his reasons and we must respect that, I just hope he now is in a better place and at peace. Always remembered never forgotten. Rest in peace Jason Raize Rothenberg.

    I actually always find it really sarcastic that the (at 1997) most underestimated voices of the original cast are now probably the most hyped Simba and Nala (definitely rightful)
    Don't get me wrong I also love the others like Samuel E. Wright (although I find myself kind of preferring L. Steven Taylor and Michael Edward-Stevens) and Tsidii Le Loka (like she was killing it)
    It's just that Heather and Jason are bringing this harmony, this vibe that actually makes you really believe this story like it's real.
