I saw this on Broadway and at 6:26 the audience broke out in applause followed by a larger thunderous applause at the very end. They nailed this song on stage, both theatrically and musically.
I just finished doing the school play, I wasn't lumiere but man. it sucks when it ends, you're going to meet SO many new people and its great. the singing and dancing is great.
I got to be Lumiere for my musical theatre production, and this song alone is what made me change my goals of being a performance musician to a theater major. Thank you Monsieur Lumiere, you've been one of a kind.
i play madame de la grande bouche at my college production, and because of that, the director told me to sing the soprano solo at 6:34, and the guy who plays lumiere said it was his favorite part of the entire song haha, it's literally so much fun!
I was the little library girl in this and a sugar bowl in a off broadway version of this last year, one of my favorite experiences about this how is when my choir teacher and her family came. I didn’t think she would come since the tickets were $45 but she came and said this: My son Joey is never Impressed with anything but during be our guest he was shocked, frozen, and had his mouth open the whole time. I’ve never been so proud in my whole life. Being a twelve year old in a off broadway play had its challenges but it was SOOOOOOO WORTH IT!!!!!!!

One of the things I loved about Gary Beach when I discovered this show was how much he truly loved playing Lumiere and he really was perfect for the role. Heaven is happier with this wonderful being up there. I so wish they had professionally record the full show with him and Terrence Mann, I'd do anything to see them. All the great things happened before I was born :'(
Sophomore year I did this production at school (I was in ensemble, got the role of a fork.) but unfortunately, it turned out terrible. We used our school orchestra for the music but they were so late on the cues because the choir teacher who was in charge of them, spent too much time on the actors voice training instead of practicing with the band correctly so the orchestra had about a week to get all the songs memorized for the musical. The choreographers were pretty harsh on us despite doing our best after practicing for so long and gave us near panic attacks when it came time for testing day; had we failed to get the dance routine correct- we would be taken out of the dance line. (They never did.) Almost everyone complained about their parts and we nearly cancelled the musical because of that. The drama teacher chose her favorites anyways for the parts, most of the girls with lead parts turned into such divas and acted like such hotshots with inflated egos. (Especially senior girl who got chosen to play Belle, she was the worst. I'm not kidding, the girl was so rude by the time we got halfway through rehearsals and she acted like she was better than everyone else. Opening night, her boyfriend couldn't make it because he had college night classes to graduate and she ranted about it in rehearsal the whole time. Two months after the musical, I see her locking lips with another guy on his car. Felt sorry for her ex boyfriend, gave her a ruby heart shaped promise ring with the hopes to marry her someday after college and treated her like a princess. Meanwhile, she just stomped on his heart in return. Ugh.) It was just a big mess of a production, I was glad to be in the musical but it could have gone better.
Tsumiki Mikan oml. Last year my theatre class did it (because of mental issues I just did odd job helping) and our teacher got fired within a month of casting. A permanent sub came in (who happened to have a theatre teaching degree, thank god) and managed to pull it all together despite being told by literally everyone that it would never work. And it turned out really good! I’m so sorry that you’re didn’t go well.
My high school is doing it this year and ngl I hope it turns out better than yours did. We have some snobby people that get leads every single year because the director plays favorites and it's extremely annoying.
I played Lumiere in my school’s production of this and it was so much fun! He’s an amazing character to perform and despite the copious songs, dances and lines I had to learn with no outside experience of theatre it was still amazing and I’m proud of everyone involved. This song was the highlight of my performance- my candles cut into my fingers and before this song began my finger ended up bleeding but the pure adrenaline of this song meant I didn’t notice until I got offstage. I’m gonna miss this performance and the cast with my whole heart, and I’m so glad I got to perform one of my dream roles 💛
Can we just take some time to appreciate Babette? She's so underrated and overlooked in the musicals! Like 6:34 those high notes in such rapid frequency I'm shooketh :O
@@heartbrokeinninc.3259 No - I did the musical last summer and that line was Babette's, I believe. Our Babette actress sang those notes and she did fabulous!
hey!! are you auditioning for lumiere? good for you! i just got finished with this show, and let me tell you, lumiere is one of my favorite roles i have ever played. he's just the best! try not to be too nervous. just have fun and find his moments, cuz he has lots of 'em. if you're doubting yourself, especially if you think they won't cast you because of your gender, don't worry! i was almost completely sure i wouldn't be cast in a role like lumiere since i'm a girl, but after lots of hard work and a little bit of luck, i got the part! break a leg in your auditions kids :)
Actually solid advice, especially the gender role stuff. I’m auditioning in two days and my biggest worry is not getting the part because I’m a girl, so it’s good to know other productions have cast female lumieres before. Thanks man
AAC0813 the napkins have a special dance number in this song. They actually work harder than the leads and have more talent when it comes to choreography.
They did the same with mine! I was Lumiere, and we had to cut because we didn’t have enough time with the choreographer to get everything perfect, so it was axed. I still miss my tango part!
Luke Cammack we're doing it this year, cast list haven't come out, I can give as much French as an entire cast of Les Mis, but I also have about as much experience in dance, so I'm terrified
I have the honor of being Belle at my Community College's production this year! I'm ecstatic-so many talented people to work with, and, an opportunity to fine-tune my craft further. Thank you for uploading this to give me another perspective of Belle :-D
halfthefiber I think Evan got confused cause he thought Ian Mackelin was playing lumeire because of his deep voice. Lumeire had a deeper voice than cogsworth in the original version
Lumeire I can just imagine the high schooler that was lumeire doing body rolls in the beggining, because we just did this musical in our school and he did do that. Also my brother wich was a nife doing the line kicks 😂😂😂😂
if they did not play this wonderful song in the movie i was going to walk out of the door. and you know what they played it and i stayed the whole movie. Emma Watson was so good in it and she was really a Beauty and wow,wow,wow,wow,wow lovely and wow again. i love every min.
I’m in a production at school and we open tomorrow! I can’t wait it’s going really well so far and we’ve been rehearsing for 6 months now. Wish me luck!

I'm so mad at whoever decided this song needed to be 7 minutes... this is literally the hardest thing I've ever had to learn
*Five minute dance break from Anything Goes intensifies*
Omg no😂😂
I’m listening to this whilst furiously flicking through my score- the performance is next Tuesday and the band was put together last week- HELP
@@hoesucc7487 I... Am... So... Sorry my friend, just pray to santa Fe and hope you'll do great, I believe in you!

I get to sing in this song. That makes me so happy. **ensemble intensifies**
Same 😃😄
Girl I'm in ensemble now 🤣
YESSSSSS
I saw this on Broadway and at 6:26 the audience broke out in applause followed by a larger thunderous applause at the very end. They nailed this song on stage, both theatrically and musically.
N-NO! NOT THE KICKLINE!!! AAAGHHHHHHHHHH!!! 😂
I hate being in the kick line xD
Poor Winchester needs to unwind
The kickline was my favorite part to watch when my college's theater company performed this show!
I've been given the role of Lumiere for my school production. This is going to be fun!
Oh, it really is a fun role! My friend's been cast as Lumiere for our high school production! I'm cast as the narrator. XD
-Steve
I just finished doing the school play, I wasn't lumiere but man. it sucks when it ends, you're going to meet SO many new people and its great. the singing and dancing is great.
Buena suerte, muchacho!
Congrats!
7 minutes of Be Our Guest makes the climax of the song so much sweeter.
I got to be Lumiere for my musical theatre production, and this song alone is what made me change my goals of being a performance musician to a theater major. Thank you Monsieur Lumiere, you've been one of a kind.
I got lumiere! Any tips?
I was the clock for the ymca version of beauty and the beast.
Everyone: I'm Lumiere!
Me: I'm a shepherd and a teacup...
Weeaboom Same! I'm a napkin and a wolf
Haye Jones what play production are you at?
Weeaboom I'm just ensemble so...
Weeaboom I’m a wolf and the hat seller.
Haye Jones you’re so lucky to be a napkin. I want to be a napkin
To add a comment pertaining to the instrumental side.....: that vibrato at 4:46 omggg it's wonderful!
i play madame de la grande bouche at my college production, and because of that, the director told me to sing the soprano solo at 6:34, and the guy who plays lumiere said it was his favorite part of the entire song haha, it's literally so much fun!
I just got cast as Lumiere, my life will now be a living hell since I am terrible at French
DanRid just growl!!!!!!!!!
DanRid Same bro! I was just cast as Lum and it’s so fun!
Lol I am cast as Babette, you think a plain old French accent is hard, try doing it in a high flirtatious voice
DanRid I actually speak French, but have the worst accent when speaking English. I got cast as lumiere too 😂
I just auditioned tonight hoping for the role of Belle wish me luck
I was the little library girl in this and a sugar bowl in a off broadway version of this last year, one of my favorite experiences about this how is when my choir teacher and her family came.

I’ve never been so proud in my whole life. Being a twelve year old in a off broadway play had its challenges but it was SOOOOOOO WORTH IT!!!!!!!

im doing this production now and its wardrobe for us
Lumiere is the coolest dude ever. Played him twice.
In my opinion, this version is better than the original and live action combined. :) ❤
Loxi S I’m sorry but nothing will be better than the original. I 100% love this soundtrack but the original is the original
totally agree w u this sounds so much more energetic and fun
But what happens when you combine it all together? Current UK Tour.
i think the reguler vergion is better
LOVE this song!
I know right?:)
Emma Johnson classic
We are learning our choreo for this tomorrow! I’m a napkin!!! So excited!
"NO, NO! NOT THE KICKLINE!"
Oh I thought it was just my crazy teachers doing that...
I’m plate so I get to go on the spinning platform
5:30 - this is where I could no longer keep a straight face🤣🤣
I get to do that, but I think I might just start cracking up instead!😂
"No no! Not the kick line!"
Andrew Roe ok
I'm crying this song gets me every time it was so fun playing this in the band for my school production
What part did you play?
hey!! are you auditioning for lumiere? good for you! i just got finished with this show, and let me tell you, lumiere is one of my favorite roles i have ever played. he's just the best! try not to be too nervous. just have fun and find his moments, cuz he has lots of 'em. if you're doubting yourself, especially if you think they won't cast you because of your gender, don't worry! i was almost completely sure i wouldn't be cast in a role like lumiere since i'm a girl, but after lots of hard work and a little bit of luck, i got the part! break a leg in your auditions kids :)
what if im a soprano who got cast as lumiere ? literally cannot sing the beginning notes :D
Actually solid advice, especially the gender role stuff. I’m auditioning in two days and my biggest worry is not getting the part because I’m a girl, so it’s good to know other productions have cast female lumieres before. Thanks man
I played the baker’s wife and an ensemble member in my school’s production all through Irish. It was such a good experience ❤
I'm playing Mrs. Potts! I can't wait for our performance!
Ariyone Denise same!!!
I just got cast as Mrs Potts too!
same!
My school is doing Beauty and the Beast this year and I'm a Fork :)
I’m A SPOON
We're doing the show at my school and I'm in this number as a napkin!
Megan Stone At least it's..a role?
Same lol
AAC0813 the napkins have a special dance number in this song. They actually work harder than the leads and have more talent when it comes to choreography.
Kat Ralson don’t be rude to others just to make yourself feel better. You have no right to say chorus members have more talent dancing than main cast.
Awww. I really wanted to be a napkin! That's really awesome tho.
I was Lumiere for my towns summer theatre a few years ago. One of the best roles I ever had
I am Lumiere in my school's production of Beauty and the Beast. Big number for me here. Hope we get a standing o after this.
I play Babette in my musical and THEY FRICKEN CUT THE TANGO PART OUT IF THIS SONG AND IM VERY ANGRY ABOUT IT
Rip
They did the same with mine! I was Lumiere, and we had to cut because we didn’t have enough time with the choreographer to get everything perfect, so it was axed. I still miss my tango part!
I can't wait to hear Ewan McGregor sing this. Do us proud, Obi-Wan!
Me too.
from Star Wars??
MinionFan1024 none other.
Gandalf will be singing.
What are your thoughts? I thought he did pretty well.
I love the tango part and the dance with the napkins 😌
Thumbs up if you're listening to this song up because you're Lumiere in a play!
Luke Cammack ha
Luke Cammack we're doing it this year, cast list haven't come out, I can give as much French as an entire cast of Les Mis, but I also have about as much experience in dance, so I'm terrified
Luke Cammack Belle but yeah
I just finished my final production of batb. I was Lumiere. This was… amazing.
Does anyone else always envision Mary Poppins singing Mrs. Potts' part?
+ADaveO Fun trivia: one of the Broadway Belles was the Original Broadway Mary.
For some reason I think of Kat from Twokinds.
@@jamiemoreton4705 Ashley Brown, you meant. Her version of “A Change in Me,” brought me to my On the Record roots.
I have the honor of being Belle at my Community College's production this year! I'm ecstatic-so many talented people to work with, and, an opportunity to fine-tune my craft further. Thank you for uploading this to give me another perspective of Belle :-D
I love this and Gary Beach is a legend 😭❤️
I actually met the cast in a store and they remembered me! they personally invited us! so cool!
One of the most fun and toughest dances I am in 😂
I sang this at Carnegie Hall in 1996, part of the National Children’s Choir.
I saw this a few years ago. Beautiful and give me chills!
This was an absolute blast to perform. Playing Lumiere has made a huge impact on me as an actor. Thank you B&B
If anyone else is using this for practice, the song starts at 0:23
I Love This Version. the Original is great too.
I'm performing as Lumiere for one of the show nights this Saturday and it'll be my first time ever on stage aaaa!
No matter what version i always hear "we ate the police" instead of "we aim to please"
I'm an enchanted item in this production!
This show is a monster and I love it.👏👏👏👏👏
It is a Beautiful OMG OMG I Lovit this Musical My Favorite 1
So excited, I got this part while I do Beauty and the Beast over the summer and I can’t wait to sing this song
i am going to be a Guest for the movie in 2017 in March.
Looking forward to see Emma Watson as Beauty.
That's Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts. Not Emma Watson.
emma watson plays belle. that's what he was excited to see
is every one excited to Emma Watson to plays Belle.
5:18 to the is end is my most favourite part of the song
im in the pit orchestra and omfg miss playing this song 😭😭😭😭
Green and Blue loser pit gang!!!!
I can't wait to hear Ian McKellen sing. Sing really good, Gandalf.
What do you mean? Ewan McGregor will play Lumiere, not Ian McKellen. Cogsworth doesn't sing here.
halfthefiber
Dude! I'm talking about in Something There.
halfthefiber I think Evan got confused cause he thought Ian Mackelin was playing lumeire because of his deep voice. Lumeire had a deeper voice than cogsworth in the original version
I mean cogsworth.
My favorite song in the movie
Yay I'm so excited I found out that I'm Lumiere in my school production. I can't wait to sing this song!
oh my god
+Isabel Lopez-Diaz OH MY GOD
+Lexi Costa OH BOY
Brianna Howa
I can't watch listen to any of these songs anymore with out seeing the lighting rig and choreography of the show my school put on!
This was my favorite song when I did it. I was a silly girl 🤪 “GASTOOON”
NOT *JACKSON*
The things I would do to get to play Lumiere. My dream 😍
Be Our Guest in this high school play
Lumeire I can just imagine the high schooler that was lumeire doing body rolls in the beggining, because we just did this musical in our school and he did do that. Also my brother wich was a nife doing the line kicks 😂😂😂😂
Excited to be singing this in my school's production! :)
if they did not play this wonderful song in the movie i was going to walk out of the door.
and you know what they played it and i stayed the whole movie.
Emma Watson was so good in it and she was really a Beauty and wow,wow,wow,wow,wow lovely and wow again.
i love every min.
This is Broadway not the live action movie
I’m in a production at school and we open tomorrow! I can’t wait it’s going really well so far and we’ve been rehearsing for 6 months now. Wish me luck!

It's a guest! It's a guest!
Sakes alive, well I'll be blessed!
Wine's been poured and thank the Lord
I've had the napkins freshly pressed
With dessert, she'll want tea
And my dear that's fine with me
While the cups do their soft-shoein'
I'll be bubbling, I'll be brewing
I'll get warm, piping hot
Heaven's sakes! Is that a spot?
Clean it up! We want the company impressed

[LUMIERE]
Life is so unnerving
For a servant who's not serving
He's not whole without a soul to wait upon
Ah, those good old days when we were useful...
Suddenly those good old days are gone
Ten years we've been rusting
Needing so much more than dusting
Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills!
Most days we just lay around the castle
Flabby, fat and lazy
You walked in and oops-a-daisy!
[COGSWORTH, spoken]
Lumiere! Think of what the master will do if he finds out about this!
[LUMIERE]
And now, for you continued dining experience:
Napkins! S'il vous plait!
[NAPKINS]
Oh la la!
Un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, wheee!
[ALL]

Our command is your request
It's been years since we've had anybody here
And we're obsessed
With your meal, with your ease
Yes, indeed, we aim to please
While the candlelight's still glowing
Let us help you, We'll keep going
Course by course, one by one
'Til you shout, "Enough! I'm done!"
Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest
Tonight you'll prop your feet up
But for now, let's eat up
Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Be our guest!
Please, be our guest!
5:45-7:01 is what we all came for...
Playing Cogsworth at my school!
Alex Kellagher saturday was closing night for Beauty and the Beast. I played Cogsworth. Absolutely best part I’ve ever played.
NO NO! NOT THE KICKLINE!

I'm doing this as my play this year and got placed as babette
Nice, I get to be a condiment and a pepper or salt shaker
Bruh I was a napkin in my schools musical and I kid you not we had the worst costume 😭😭 they were literally sleeveless nightgowns
