Yep, I know that Donny did vocals for Li Shang. "Be A Man" is one of my
favorite songs from that movie. I don't care that I'm not a man, when
the lyrics come about to "You must be swift as the coursing river, with
all the force of a great typhoon, with all the strength of a raging
fire, mysterious as the dark side of the moon", I feel great pride
welling in my chest. Completely unexplainable, but there you go. It
just taps into something unknown in me.

Although, on second thought, I could see how the song might give young
boys the wrong impression on what a "man" is. The emphasis in the song
is on physical strength and prowess, not on mental capacity or
emotional feeling.

I also highly empathize with the song "Reflections". Especially the
part that goes "Who is that girl I see, Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?" I think most people have
felt this way at some point in their lives.
