Herself - Voice of 'Mrs. Potts': It was a very slow ballad and I was afraid of it I said, "I don't think your right in asking me to sing this song I think someone else should sing it." and they said, "no we want you to sing it."
Alan Menken: What a day in the studio that was. Just not to be believed. And Angela... one take, Beauty and The Beast, one take.

Catherine: : You taught me to face my fears, always, Vincent. Tell me-
Vincent: : What shall I tell you? That I am not this shadow, this man-monster that you hunt? Must you hear the words before you trust? Hear them then, it is not me. Catherine, I would never hurt you. (Catherine takes an involuntary step backwards)
Catherine: : No, Vincent, no.... I did not mean to-
Vincent: : To pull away? I know. I know your heart, Catherine, but sometimes the words that are not spoken are the truest words of all. (barely audible)... they hurt.
Catherine: : What are you saying?
