Does anyone remember the episode where Robert sang "O Holy Night"? I'd like to find a copy of it, or see the episode again. I think it could be the best performance of the song that I've ever seen! I can't seem to find even a mention of it anywhere. Thanks (in advance)!

Robert Guillaume has one of the purest sounding voices out there. I hate that I never got to hear him perform "The Phantom of the Opera" while he was in the cast. I do think it's odd that in "The Lion King", a movie with a lot of great music, they didn't use Mr. Guillaume for any of the songs. Especially with his wonderful voice. I think if he had sung "The Circle of Life" at the beginning, it would have been a much more powerful opening to the film. Just my little two cents.
Although he does get a song in "Lion King II, Simba's Pride"

And I do agree. His performance of "O Holy Night" is incredibly moving.

I just checked back (very sorry it has been so long), and I really appreciate the responses to my question! Many, many thanks, folks! I still remember getting chills listening to his version, but I haven't seen or heard it in years! Time for me to start digging again!

Yes, I have a couple copies of that, one on VHS taped 20+ years ago (decent quality) and another taped a year or so ago off TV Land when they had their 'Benson Marathon' (excellent quality).
And I agree he sounds nothing short of incredible - great voice.
I'm pretty sure it's this episode:

Wait a minute who am I here?

I have it on a barely watchable VHS tape that was bare wire copied from a Dish Network DVR. Sound works well enough and it might be the best vocal performance I've ever heard. Gives me a tear every time I queue it up.
It is from the episode "Mary and her little lambs" or something close to it. It is not on the Season 1 DVD.
