I got to know Elton John's older music by learning to like his newer stuff. 'The Lion King?' That's what I like.

Well, you know, I played Mufasa in the workshop of The Lion King.

I was just so excited to have a child! I held him up like he was Simba in 'The Lion King.' I wanted to sing 'The Circle of Life.'

The past can hurt. But the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it.

If you look at it, 'The Lion King' is very similar to 'Hamlet.'

I've loved musicals ever since I saw 'The Lion King' on Broadway.
