the ACTUAL movie version thank you! so many of the other videos have a higher pitch or something going on

[@benitosierrajr3958]

I notice that too, many uploads of the song obviously used the European PAL version, something I despise for films and television especially, since for TV and movies, PAL runs slightly fast, and is infamous for pitching the audio slightly higher, I would rather have NTSC.

[@AmericanBoy-si9zg]

Yeah. It's frustrating as hell to find the actual version.

Some channels do this to avoid copyright strikes

When he sings- ‘shangri-la’ the half a second ukelele music touches my heart!!!!

[@maxx951]

Whose genius idea was it to release this album exclusively with remixes?? Why would we not want to hear the versions from the movie??

[@Tevincozart19]

Yeow! Your horse bit me in the butt!

[@BlingBilby5694]

I wish Dreamworks would make more musicals. This and the Prince of Egypt have fun and ear-worming songs that can be stuck in your head in a good way. Some People may say that trolls counts as a musical but that’s more like a Jute-box Musical, not to mention 2 of their cancelled projects Monkeys in Mumbai and Larrikins were going to be musicals with original musical numbers. People always say that Disney is the king of animated musicals but it’s kinda heartbreaking we don’t have some flavor from others doing it (outside of Sony when they made Vivo)

[@nathancruz9172]

Me too.

Is it weird that I remember every single scene and movement that happens in this song?

[@copper611]

No i do

Why is it weird?

Nope

Not at all.

[@traviscouplin8847]

This was one of the best Elton John song all the years. And still one of my favorite songs.

[@RSP-ME]

I wanted to hear this so badly. I remember as a kid I’d rewatch the movie over and over and over again. This so has to be my favorite it’s so beautiful

[@ahsoka6807]

[@BlackieFoxxless]

If I ever travel to South America in my life, I'm going to sing this song

[@BlackieFoxxless]

Before I chomp down on a ripe guava fruit afterwards

[@jakeitnbakeit]

I’ve been to Colombia 2 times. Very nice. Highly recommend

[@Trainman16]

I really don't know why this movie became a failure! I really enjoyed it as a kid and was hoping for a sequel or tv series following what happens next!

It's forever stuck in my head no regrets

[@Navesblue]

You have great taste, my friend.

[@Angel43189]

Doe anyone know what the background singers are saying at 0:44? It sounds so nice!

[@jemofthe80s18]

I can't believe it took me until two years ago to FINALLY see this movie! Absolutely love everything about it, and most of all the Colin Mochrie/Ryan Stiles chemistry of Miguel and Tulio and Tulio himself who's so perfectly the 'exasperated dad of a teenage daughter' character despite not even being one;)

[@Cthulhusmash420]

To this day this is still one of my favorite songs. Lol

[@nathancruz9172]

El Dorado and Tarzan have the best soundtracks imo

[@masterofthepeachtea]

This song makes me want to go to the town next to me without a car

[@henryisthere]

Adore this song! Road to El Dorado is so underrated. I’ll be honest, I’d be totally down for a sequel. Id call it “Beyond the Road to El Dorado”. Thoughts??

[@ahsoka6807]

Nah the movie would just be ruined today considering the current climate lol. Sometimes you just gotta let something that was a good thing be a good thing and leave it there lol.

[@ahsoka6807]

I love the music and the movie as well

[@ex0bent88]

Or “The Boy’s From El Dorado”

[@WarpChaos]

Or "The Road to (Insert new Destination)".
