The soundtrack to the live action version of the 1991 animated Disney feature mirrors the film in its reimagining of the source material. Beauty and the Beast includes many of the original compositions by Alan Menken and Howard Ashman, like "Be Our Guest" and "Belle," that were so popular in the animated movie. Céline Dion, singer of the original title track, returns on the new composition "How Does a Moment Last Forever," and the film also features a new version of "Beauty and the Beast" sung by Ariana Grande and John Legend. The soundtrack debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 upon release. ~ Bekki Bemrose
