Man & His Donkey Singing The Lion King Song 'Circle Of Life' Is The Best Version Ever!

A man and his donkey from the US have gone viral for a unique reason. A video shared on Facebook by Travis Kinley shows the South Carolina resident, standing in between a donkey and a horse, singing ¡®Circle of Life¡¯ which is the theme song of the movie The Lion King.

While the horse did not participate much, the donkey joined its owner to sing the popular song. In fact, it seems as though the donkey is giving the background music for the song. Kinley told WLTX, that he had ¡°just picked up¡± the donkey for Rs 6,872 as he was causing ¡°some trouble at someone else¡¯s house¡±.

¡°He seemed alright with me.¡±

Kinley said that he decided to sing the song following a request from his friends. "So, I got in the pasture, I gather all horses.... I start singing and Nathan starts to bray behind me, and I'm kind of blown away because we never do this together; we never sing together," Kinley said.

"He keeps going, so I keep going, and all of a sudden I just kind of break down laughing at the end," he added. "He's just playful, that's just in his nature," he was quoted as saying.

The video has over 2.4 million views and 56k shares.

The Lion King remake has already beaten the original Lion King at the box office, but the songs remain the best-selling soundtrack album to an animated film till date, with the sale of over 7 million copies in the US.

The songs were written by Elton John and Tim Rice, while the score was composed by Hans Zimmer. The 2019 remake of the film hit the silver screen on July 19.

Here is the song 'Circle of Life' just for some nostalgic feels:
