"We Are One" Kiara's singing

I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for saying this, but I don't really like Kiara's singing in "We Are One". Don't get me wrong, she has a nice voice, but the intonation issues are quite noticeable in my opinion. Her singing is sharp and it doesn't sound very good with the instrumental. I think that if the intonation was improved, the song would be much better. I still think it's the best song in SP though. :silly:

Don't worry you won't get hated for that lol. But I do have to respectfully disagree. I thought Kiara did a great job with her singing role. But we're all entitled to our opinions, so, Hakuna Matata. :)

I had no problem with Kiara's solo in the song, but I do think I can catch the intonation during her solo. However, I don't think it needs to be improved upon since her solo was only about less than 30 seconds; it wouldn't make a difference to the song.

But, I do agree with you that "We are One" is the best song in the film. :)

Ah yes, "We Are One" is the best song in SP...I never minded Kiara's singing voice and her line actually has a very special place in my heart. I was about 13 when SP came out and really related to Kiara's struggle to "be herself". I used to sing along with the song, especially Kiara's part.
Typical teen angst, I guess. :sowwy:

I don't really like Kiara in the song for the simple reason that it makes a sudden contrast to Simba's deeper voice. So I am enjoying the song (and my listening habits translate me to getting to Kiara after several minutes) and Whoa, whoa, whoa! What's up with that?

It's not bad, and if I am aware that Kiara is coming up, I don't mind her, but the simple vocal difference between Simba and Kiara catches me off-guard more often than not.

Same here. I always sing along to "We Are One", especially Kiara's part. It's actually my favorite part of the song. *points to avvie* So, yeah. I don't mind the change between Simba and Kiara's voices at all.

I loved when she sang her part, I actually wanted her to sing more. Like the others said, I also sing along to Kiara's part, cause I'm such a teenager. Lol. :P

I love the song, and I guess I don't have a problem with the singing. It's better than mine, that's for sure. :lol: I actually like the contrast with the deeper and higher voices singing together.

I think she has a nice voice for someone so young. I love the song "We Are One" (my favourite from SP) and I enjoy listening to it in different languages.

She is most definitely a bit sharp there; to a trained ear it does stand out. I don't think it's conflicting with the instruments, I enjoy the vocals and the bass interplaying. I still enjoy her part, it definitely gives the song a bit of needed variety. Man, do I love that bass fill quoting "or am I just one part" ... whoever did bass for TLK, please come jam with me...
