A Story Filled with Love, Friendship, and Family: "Tarzan"
"Tarzan" is a Disney film released in 1999.
Based on the novel of the same name by Edgar Rice Burroughs, it is considered the last work from Disney's golden age, known as the Disney Renaissance.
The iconic masterpiece "Tarzan" is a moving story filled with not only romance but also friendship and family love.
What is the Story of "Tarzan"?
"Tarzan" tells the story of a man named Tarzan, who was raised by the female gorilla Kala since he was a baby.
Despite being excluded by animals due to differences in appearance and abilities, he lived strongly in the jungle.
As a young man, Tarzan became strong enough to defeat the leopard Sabor, who was also the one that killed his parents.
One day, he meets Jane, a human woman who arrives in the jungle, and learns that there is a new world he has never known.
The story depicting Tarzan's struggle to protect the jungle while being torn between humans and animals resonates deeply not only with children but also with adults.
In an interesting twist, Tarzan's parents, who were killed by the leopard, are the same characters as Anna and Elsa's parents from the movie "Frozen" (as revealed by the director).
This means Tarzan was the brother of Anna and Elsa...
With this surprising truth coming to light, "Tarzan" is once again garnering attention.
The story is, of course, compelling, but the insert songs are also filled with timeless melodies that you will want to hear over and over again. Let's introduce them right away♩
Insert Song 1: Two Worlds
"Two Worlds" is one of the opening songs of "Tarzan." As the chorus lyric, "Two Worlds one family," suggests, it depicts the lives of a human couple and a gorilla couple.
A human family that washed ashore in the jungle after their ship sank, and a gorilla couple whose child was killed by a leopard.
Although these two families belong to completely different worlds, the story begins as both families unite after the human parents are also killed by the leopard.
Although the story includes tragic episodes, the song itself features a positive melody and lyrics. It expresses a wedding-worthy message of "let's live our lives together for our loved ones."
Insert Song 2: You'll Be in My Heart
"You'll Be in My Heart" is the theme song of "Tarzan." In the English version, it is sung by Phil Collins, while in the Japanese version, it is sung by Masayuki Sakamoto of V6.
The song gently expresses love with the lyrics, "No matter what, you will be in my heart," and it offers healing through its grand, soothing melody.
This song would be uplifting during re-entrance scenes or emotional exit scenes at a wedding.
Insert Song 3: Son Of Man
"Son Of Man" is a song that depicts Tarzan growing from a child into a young man in the jungle.
As seen in the lyrics, "Growing from boy to man," it carries a strong message about the transition to adulthood.
With a bright and refreshing melody, it is recommended for the groom's childhood scene in a profile movie.
Insert Song 4: Strangers Like Me
"Strangers Like Me" plays during the scene where Tarzan first meets Jane and her father, Professor Porter, who teach him about a new world.
The lyrics express feelings of romance with lines like "I've never felt this way before" and "Please tell me why this feels so familiar."
The gentle and grand melody is perfect for background music during socializing or welcoming guests.
