Kenai falls down some rapids, survives, and is healed by Tanana, the shaman of his tribe. Denahi arrives and, falsely believing that Kenai was killed by the bear from earlier, vows to avenge Kenai by hunting it down. The Spirits, represented by Sitka's spirit in the form of a bald eagle, arrive and transform Kenai into a bear after the dead bear's body evaporates and joins them. He hunts down and chases the bear up onto a rocky cliff, fighting and eventually slaying it. After Sitka's funeral, an enraged Kenai blames the bear for Sitka's death. Kenai and his brothers pursue the bear, but a fight ends on top of a glacier, during which Sitka gives his life to save his brothers by dislodging the glacier, although the bear survives the fall. He objects to his totem, stating that bears are thieves, and believes his point is made a fact when a brown bear steals their basket of salmon. Unlike Sitka, who gained the eagle of guidance, and Denahi, who gained the wolf of wisdom, Kenai receives the bear of love. The particular animals they represent symbolize what they must achieve to call themselves men. A trio of brothers, Kenai, the youngest Denahi, the middle and Sitka, the eldest, return to their tribe in order for Kenai to receive his totem, necklaces in the shapes of different animals. In a post- ice age Alaska, the local tribes believe all creatures are created through the Great Spirits, who are said to appear in the form of an aurora. A direct-to-video sequel, Brother Bear 2, was released on August 29, 2006. The film grossed $250 million against a $46 million budget.

In order to be human again, Kenai must travel to a mountain where the Northern lights touch the earth. Brother Bear follows an Alaska native boy named Kenai as he pursues a bear and kills it, but the Spirits, incensed by this unnecessary death, change Kenai into a bear himself as punishment.

The song was used in a 2007 commercial for Coca-Cola.Brother Bear is a 2003 American animated musical fantasy comedy-drama film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation and released by Walt Disney Pictures.In the film, "On My Way" is the only song to be sung even partially by a character (in this case, Koda).Koda(movie only) Phil Collins(soundtrack only): Yes, I'm on my way! Phil Collins: Tell everybody I'm on my wayĬause there's nothing like seeing each other againĪnd the stories that we tell will make you smile Koda(movie only) Phil Collins(soundtrack only): Tell everybody I'm on my wayĪnd there's nowhere else that I'd rather be The song then ends when Koda sings that last line "Yes, I'm on my way!" When Rutt and Tuke discover their animal tracks, Kenai had an idea: he, Koda, and Rutt and Tuke ride on mammoths so that Denahi will not catch them with the song resuming as Koda tells the other animals to ride the mammoths and join them on their journey. Kenai tells them that they lost Denahi at the glacier. Near the end of the song after Kenai and Koda roll down a windy hill and have fun playing with mud, the two bears encounter the two moose Rutt and Tuke who tell them about the hunter chasing Kenai. Kenai constantly gets irritated with Koda's singing as the two bears explore nature around them with Phil Collins singing the song. When Koda tries to tell Kenai another story, Koda then plans to sing, despite Kenai's protests. When Koda tells the story to Kenai (transformed into a bear) about his mother getting separated, Kenai tells him to save this story for the other bears at the Salmon Run.
