Something that's on my mind which I just really have to share:
Today I got to listen the original broadway cast recordings of The Lion King musical, and I feel like the song "Shadowland" would have been perfect for the 2019 movie.
It would have given Beyonce a solo song for her character, and not just an out-of-character song, which would have been really awesome.
That also fits with Disney's other remakes, in which the main character's love interest has a solo song. Those songs are the character's song, and not an ooc song like TLK's Spirit is.
I feel like the song would fit really well shortly after the escape from Pride Rock scene.
I also really love how the song's chorus uses a melody from the score which is used multiple times throughout the movie. Could have been really cool to see such an iconic part of the score get its own song.
For those who don't know the song, here's a youtube link to it: https://youtu.be/OPJqaxkBRro
