Dang, this is incredible

Not bad singing Mr Menken - that's not an easy F !
And thank you for writing such a great musical - I'm astonished that this song was left out of the movie !

Song wasn't written for the film,the script never allowed for Beast to have his own song till the Broadway version.

Love the song. It's just that Alan Menken is a tenor, and he definitely wrote this song for a baritone.

[@CalliopeMiller]

A baratone is a tiny tuba…

[@samcotten2416]

And it’s also the male vocal range between bass and tenor. The instrument you’re talking about is really called a euphonium, and it’s often called a “baritone” because that’s the range it usually plays. Characters like Javert and Gaston are baritones, like Quasimodo is a tenor.

Alan Menken's music has saved my life! His work is the quintessence of Musical Theatre. Love it! :')

[@strwbrrymentos2225]

i don't think it ever occurred to me stupidly till now that Alan Menken is more than a Disney lyricist but like also an amazing singer!

[@omamajohnpaul4215]

* composer not lyricist.

[@CharlotteMacrickens]

And songwriter

[@organicskating]

The song was never written for the movie, wasn't it only for the Broadway musical it was specifically written for?

[@TheZbane]

+organicskating yeah its an act closer it does not really have a place in a movie because its a show stopper

[@EricAriel5]

He's said in interviews he wrote it as a way to end act 1 for the stage version.

I am hearing Galavant in the first 30 seconds....

[@georgec.bouras937]

That's right!

[@PCully03]

I feel really bad for saying this, but does anyone else think that he pronounces er’s and ar’s a bit to hard?
