This song was originally recorded by actress Angela Lansbury for the Disney animated feature film "Beauty and the Beast" (1991). Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson recorded it for the film's soundtrack. It was released as its only single on the 25th of November 1991.
When Disney needed a radio-friendly version of this track for the film's promotion, they decided to release "Beauty and the Beast" as a single performed only by Celine Dion. But they hesitated that she could attract an audience in the USA and invited the more popular Peabo Bryson to be her duet partner.
This track won Golden Globe Award, Academy Award for Best Original Song, Grammy Awards for Best Song Written for Visual Media and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.
This single became commercial success, reached number nine on the Billboard Hot 100, and boosted Celine Dion's career.
The American Film Institute officially recognized "Beauty and the Beast" as one of the greatest songs in film history, and put it on the 62nd position in 2004.
Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts sang this song in the 2017 film adaptation of the original film. A duet cover version by Ariana Grande and John Legend played during the end credits.
