Please Be Our Guest!

Beauty and the Beast came out in 1991, when I was in High School.  Being all of 16 I saw it... multiple times...

My graduation gift was a CD player, and my first CD was the Beauty and the Beast soundtrack.

I ended my High School career with my choir singing a medley of the songs from the movie.

I know most of the words of every song.  Be Our Guest especially!

I'm a fan.

I was a bit hesitant when I heard they were doing the live action.   But the songs were released!

We already had seen this:


But then we got the whole thing!



Off to a good start...

and then we got this one:


And here's the full version:


The thing that struck me the most is Gaston's voice.  The animated version was a baritone, but Luke Evans is a tenor.  But it still works for me.

And Josh gad was meant to play LaFou!

But it all comes down to this one.  Give it a listen:


(Did you sing along?  I did!)

I'm actually looking forward to this.  (And we all know that I've had precious little to look forward to lately!)

But it's Friday and I'm on my own for the weekend.  In honor of that I'm throwing myself a Luau and making this.  I'll probably start it on Saturday night and eat on Sunday! 

Happy Friday everyone!
