Let’s remember Angela Lansbury and her amazing performance in “Beauty and the Beast” as the movie celebrates its 25th anniversary.
Angela Lansbury played the voice of Mrs. Potts in the Disney classic “Beauty and the Beast.” To mark the movie’s 25th anniversary, she sang the theme song on stage with composer Alan Menken playing the piano. It’s a touching moment.
Angela Lansbury was a famous actress and singer. She loved acting from a young age and kept working until she passed away at 96. You might know her best as Jessica Fletcher in “Murder, She Wrote,” a show that ran for 12 seasons and earned her many awards.
But her role as Mrs. Potts in “Beauty and the Beast” is unforgettable, and it’s wonderful to hear her sing the song again, especially since she was 90 years old when she did it. She still sounded just as good as ever.
Angela Lansbury was an amazing woman who will be missed by many.
Tale as old as time true as it can be
Barely even friends, then somebody bends unexpectedly
Just a little change, small to say the least
Both were a little scared, but neither one prepared
Beauty and the beast.
Certain as the sun rising in the east
Tale as old as time
The song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast.
