  • She doesn't have a natural singing voice and occasionally her timing is off, but somehow she nails it. Unlike Celine and Peabo, she's a perfect fit for the character. By the end of this clip, I had tears running down my cheeks, and that doesn't happen often.

  • then somebody bends? lol I think todays audience might take that a little differently

  • She has the most beautiful singing voice! I love the movie Beauty and the Beast! -3

  • wonderful! did not know this version. Thank you!

  • I love this-3 I'm playing beauty in my schools play:) this is my favorite song!!

  • LOVE her singing it better than anyone. Sorry but no one can top Mrs. Potts -3

    I cried :)

  • Awww it's so cute when she says 'Into the cupboard chip it's past ur bedtime. Goodnight love <3' And how true, tale as old as time, song as old as rhyme, beauty & the beast...

  • this makes me every time i watch/listen to this.... I love Angela Lansbury <3

  • i actually love her ...i remember i was hooked in bedknobs and broomsticks and then i went onto murder she wrote :0

  • a legendary woman with the most legendary choirs singing my favorite disney song gah im speechless

  • She's such an amazing woman, with an incredible energy and strength which make her more than 20 years younger than she is. Love you, Angela! :)

  • Just Beautiful

  • no words. beautiful.

  • <3 Mrs Pot! :D

  • Double OMG coz 1) I love the film n the song 2) I never knew she was beloved Mrs.Potts!

    Third OMG - this song always makes my eyes water.....

  • @PumaCeKa Triple OMG for you when you'll find she is Jessica Fletcher. But this is just a 30 year old speaking ;)

  • @ TalentedMrWimbley Angela was Mrs.Potts' voice in the movie. she was the first version of this song. I am Mrs.Potts in the play so I looked it up.

  • AHHHH!! Mrs. Pots!!!!! <3

  • She seems like the loving grama that would always be there for you if you needed a shoulder to cry on.

  • Mrs. Santa Claus!! :)

  • too bad you can only adopt kids. i would like to adopt her as my grandma. this woman is classy, real, pure, and just has so much charisma. i would believe word that comes out of her mouth.

  • 34 people who are jealous of not having angela as their grandma.

  • When Angela recorded this song for the movie it only took her one take I'm not joking just one take was all it took her to get it right.

  • I love the way she says "Goodnight, love". It's so peaceful and charming.

  • My childhood thanks you for this video! Tale as old as time, Song as old as rhyme, Beauty and the Beast!!!

  • she makes me cry

  • I love her voice she is an amazing singer

  • You know, we all wish Angela Lansbury was our grandma...but for those of us with our hearts planted on the stage, Angela IS our grandma. She's an inspiration to us all--something to aspire to be. Celine Dion can just hoof it. She will never hold a candle.

  • i LOVE Angela!!!!!!!!!!

  • Pure delight.

  • With the Tabernacle Choir in the background; AWESOME!

  • clap! clap! CLAP! thats was beautiful thats was amazing i love her voice im her biggest fan ever

  • I was just watching when I realized the goosebumps on my arms. Music like this sends tingles up all the right places.

  • Very nice! I just wish it wasn't so fast. The original movie version was substantially slower; it seems at some points Angela is a bit rushed.

    At any rate, I'm glad I found this!

  • Angela's version is ENCHANTING!

  • My all time favourite Disney song. The new stuff they make will never and I mean never live up to this. It's at times like this that I miss watching Beauty and the Beast on my old video, snuggled up on the sofa at home. <3

  • GORGEOUS <3

  • angela is not only a classy lady she is a legend love u mum

  • She sounds almost the same as she did in the film(:

  • i wish she was my grandmother!!she is just amazing :D

  • Her voice reminds me of watching "Beauty and the beast" in my childhood!!

  • this song gives me chills! suchs a classic song, sung by such a classic lady!

  • meravigliosa, unica, inimitabile

    

  • Forgot to say, wish her a happy Birthday Her birthday is coming less than a week.

  • Celine Dion doesn't stand a chance against the original :) You need a grandma to tell a story like that.

  • I Love it when after 20 somethin years People still have the same voice. :)

  • Angela Lansbury, how talented and sweet person. Nobody could do it better than her. There are moments in history when the right person was chosen for the right task, and this was one of those moments. She always will be our dear Mrs Potts. Thank you Angela for bring such a beautiful emotion to our hearts.

  • YEAH! go "Mormon Tabernacle Choir"

    and of course "Beaming little Mrs Potts"

    Awesome

  • This makes me feel emotional! This was one of tunes of my childhood... :)

  • She cracked on that first "old". But that's okay. I love Angela Lansbury.

  • I was having a bad day and this put a smile on my face :D

  • i love this woman <3

  • I remember watching this with my mom when I was little, my mom loved Angela Lansbury in Murder, She Wrote. My mom passed on but I still feel her with me when I see Angela

  • Sin dudas Angela Lansbury es la mejor!!!!!!!! a pesar de sus 85 años tiene unas energías increíbles, ojala esas energías le duren muchísimos años mas.

  • A women who started in Hollywood in the 1940s was oscar nominated for her first two films, became the most creative actress of the 1960s, she was called the Bette Davis of her generation, who won more than 5 tony awards and became the most successful t.v. actress of her generation. After over 70 years she has bewitched the world with her talent and is a living legend with the industry. Love her.

  • This song...this movie gets me ever single time. As soon as that first note hits of this song, I'm gone. Blubbering like a baby. Even 20 years later, this movie & this song gets me every time. Its one of a few songs that I cannot get through without choking up. Ever. This whole movie, ie. Beauty & the Beast, is just one of the most beautiful movies Disney ever produced. No wonder its the first animated film to get a nom for best picture. Should have won over Silence of the Lambs.

  • She is amazing, no one else could sing that song. Faved!

  • Holy shit I didn't know she was Mrs Potts!!

  • its even better now then what it was when i was a kid

  • i was watching beauty and the beast in disney channel and then im like i wanna see the person who sings the song so i found it AMAZING!!!

  • This is the best version of this song by miles. No one can beat her voice, it's the most comforting sound you will ever hear

  • wow..she is something

  • The fabulous Angela Lansbury, singing a landmark tune! So beautiful!! xx

  • 33 people loved the song so much they thought dislike meant DIS I LIKE!! snooks!! :P

  • well i had tears in my eyes

    Beauty and the Beast is my all time fave. disney animated movie

    always makes me cry

  • What you have just seen, ladies and gentlemen, is an experience that every child should and deserves to have.

    Angela Lansbury, thank you for enchanting my early years.

    Beauty and the Beast, thank you for enchanting the world.

  • Got a warm fuzzy feeling, i shut my eyes and see mRs Pots and chip!!

  • omg i love it!!!!!!!!!!

  • Angela Lansbury - great talent.

  • OK I'm definitely crying... alot... beautiful <3

  • 33 people hate talent..

  • its best rendition because its her voice originally

  • I would die for an mp3 of this. Anyone can help?

  • @letrung1912 YoutubeCatcher^^

  • Anybody knows when and where was this held? What was the occasion?

  • i love ths song even song by the lady who did murder she wrote mrs Angela lansbury

  • Woah up there conductor, it's a stately waltz, not a headlong gallop!

    You can see poor Angela trying to get him to slow up, but he sped on blithely, and she was forced to run after, and breathe where she could... Tsk tsk, bad job on his part...

    She still shone :)

  • @kidragakas Agreed. Excellent rendition, but way too fast!

  • @kidragakas I'm with you here! He just sped through the song.... but you can tell he's in awe of her talent. Did you see the way he clapped at the end?? Not every conductor does that to a performer. But in the case of Ms Lansbury, who wouldn't?

  • Oh man...Please don't make me cry...

  • i really admire this woman... she's so incredibly.. human! *__*

  • I love this song, its so beautiful :') had a little tear in my eye :) x

  • omg i cried!!! i have tears running down my cheeks bc of this beautiful song that brought me back memories wen i was a little kid. this was my fav movie and i love this song!!!

  • Goosebumps....everytime

  • Comment removed

  • Awww, for children everywhere..I loved Angela Lansbury in Bedknobs and Broomsticks even though that film was made well before my time. In fact i prefer it to Mary overated Poppins. And not only has Angela been a Hollywood success for decades, but she is one of us. BRITISH! Mind you, Murder She Wrote was a crock.

  • 2% of viewers really need to watch Beauty and the Beast again. Angela Lansbury has the perfect voice for Mrs. Potts!! Also I loved when she added the line at the end, which I always think of at the end of the song: "Chip, it's past your bedtime, dearie. Time to go to bed." ((sorry I know thats not the exact line XD but still))

  • Angela Lansbury... such an inspiration.

  • Hearing this is getting me all teary-eyed, but I can't help but smile! This brings back so many good memories of watching this with my dad.

  • @LeafDaughterofAuron

    same. 8-]

  • this made my ears hurt

  • gets me teary-eyed every time...

  • The best xxx

  • Bless her heart

  • What a lovely singer. Beautiful.

  • No other singer or star can ever sing this song at her level, because it sounds like you are right there next to her signing right next to you as the very story itself plays in your eyes and heart

  • Why? Why I get goosebumps everytime I hear her voice!

  • Wow..........<3

    

  • 32 people rooted for Gaston

  • ALAN MENKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEST SONGS EVER

  • makes a 20 year old man cry. thumbs up if you feel the same way.

  • @MyJs777 I do too, I'm 20 as well. I was 10 months old when this movie came out.

  • One day, the world will be a very, very sad and quiet place.

    Angela Lansbury is the greatest thing to ever happen to the performing arts industry.

  • I´m Spanish, and I an accustomed to the voice of Mr Potts in my language. And the actress that dubs her also dubs Angela Lansbury. I like a lot her voice, but hearing this song in english, sung by this wonderful actress, makes me goosebumps... Great great great song!

    P.S.: If you want to know about the spanish dubbing actress, her name is Marta Martorell

  • How can anyone not like this, it is wonderful, you can't beat her never could!

  • How could you not like this video?  Amazing.

  • i love her, awesome, but WAY to fast....

  • i swear my heart stop for three mins and 18 seconds when she sings this

  • I don't know what it is... But watching Miss Lansbury singing this song, on a live stage, even with a slightly sped up tempo, she gives off such a magical performance, brings tears to my eyes. Nobody has ever topped Miss Lansbury on this song, and nobody ever will. This is HER song.

  • nice song

  • I goose bump every time I hear her, she touches my heart

  • what's become of this world <'(

  • 32 people went the way of Gaston.

  • Angela Lansbury ,the definition of a LADY -

    Charm, elegance, grace, humility

    Lex de Azevedo, the REASON why this is the best rendition of B&tB, the magic is always in the score . . . .

    drkuya - thanks for the beautiful music !!! chuck

  • Wonderful!

  • Love this song...32 people need to be jailed!!! How can you not like Mrs Potts???

  • @TheWattsie1 Further more how could you hate beauty and the beast, i mean this masterpeace of a film has it all, fantastic story to tell, fabules, songs once again done by the brilliant Alan Menken, breathtaking animation, and loads of awards to back it up, including the academy award/oscor for best film, Dinsey have won other academy awards bafta's and others before but until beauty and the beast they never won the academy award for best picture/best film. :)

    This is a beautiful song, go Angela

  • 32 people have no heart

  • Who could possibly DISLIKE this video? It's brilliant and fantastic and so beautiful I get chills. Those 32 dislikes must be huge douchers.

  • This song makes me so happy!!!! :D

  • what age was she here, cuz wow this is beautifull, the emotion and conviction is stunning

  • 32 people are going to get locked in the cupboard.

  • @nannergril Nope, 33 now! Haha...I love this song...*tear*

  • I was the perfect age - a little boy - to see this movie, and I saw many films yet somehow, I never saw this wonderful Disney film at the movies. I regret that now, as a 27-year-old, because Angela's performance is beautiful. I've since watched the movie, but I'm so sad that I'll never have that childlike wonder while watching it., as I should have done. Every parent should make their child watch this beautiful movie as soon as they reach 5 years old. :-(

  • RIP Howard Ashman. You are missed so much.

  • love it!! im 21yo guy now and i still love this, its so wonderfull :)

  • just perfect, sniff :)

  • Perfection. No big vocals needed or ridiculous riffing just the fragility and honesty of an old lady's voice. Sublime. What was with the busy conductor and his ridiculous tempo... slow down!

  • @Phoenixxe He prolly did it so as not to tax her voice as long. You notice, she ends up dropping a bunch of the held out notes.

  • what you don't see from the camera angle in this video is the standing ovation given to her by the audience at the end.

  • I have loved Beauty and the Beast since I was a little girl, it was always my favorite Disney movie by far. I just got the Blu-ray edition for Christmas and it is stunning. This movie has always connected with me emotionally. Thanks for posting this :)

  • @kennethmack27 ^_^ i still watch Murder she Wrote.... i love Bedknobs and Broomsticks too there awesome to watch.... i love it when they go in to the cartoon and dancing about on the bottom of the sea ^_^... also ignore him... his being a jerk.... you get some people like that and the best thing to do is ignore them ^_^..........

  • o my gosh, you young guys are so sweet to see her enduring beauty with such respect. Check out her performance of "Everything's coming up roses" Live from New York. A little younger and incredible with every stage detail, from the key changes to the innuendo of subtle choreography. THIS is a star! So few of the real thing these days...with so many "cheapies n hotties" taking the spotlight with no real talent. We're in a recession because of our collective mood, money is just the barometer.

  • It's funny what she says about singing the song because in an interview, she states that she told Alan and Howard that she felt she didnt feel the song was meant for her to sing, she sang the song only once, and thats what they used

  • She really sounds lika an elder lady. That's wonderful. In movies I always think such granny voices are funny but this song is wonderful. Her 'granny voice' make me feel so impressed.

    That's really really wonderful...

  • @kennethmack27 no problem, its just my kind of personality, i dont like it when someone else disrespects someone because of their opinion, it annoys me so much

  • @kennethmack27 What the hell else can I say? I'm a medical student.

  • @kennethmack27 You are beginning to scare me, fella. Your tantrums indicate to me that you are going through some form of pubescent psychosis. Have you seen a child psychiatrist ? I think you should. Otherwise, in 6 or 7 or 8 years' time, you might end up being like that sick bastard who killed six people (including a nine year old girl) in Tuscon, Arizona, last week. There're lots and lots of warped people in your country, and I have a strong feeling that you are likely to become one of them.

  • @supercreamysperm you have no right to call kenneth a crackpot! beauty is in the eye of the beholder and i personally believe that she is very beautiful, so if you think someone has bad taste please keep it to yourself

  • @charliepoet13 I agree.

  • @supercreamysperm oh you do? then did i take your comment the wrong way?

  • @charliepoet13 Yep.

  • I know her best from "Murder She Wrote"...

  • she is up there with Walt Disney and Michael Jackson as the legends that bring ancient felicity to not only i but everyone else that looks up to her

  • This is really so beautiful.

  • After having watched "Murder She Wrote" for some years, this lovely song let me finally and definitively fall in love with this wonderful lady! May seem odd for a 34 year old guy, but hey, THIS is real art - something that unfortunately seems to become outmoded. Angie - go on forever!

  • @AIDAblu1 at the same age mate.. I agree, she is amazing...

  • @AIDAblu1 Same thing except I'm only 14, but I watch Murder,She wrote on re-runs on TV and I have a few of the seasons on DVD1

  • This is simply gorgeous. A glorious rendition from a real trouper whose star age cannot dim and whose talent the years cannot tarnish. For those few who quibble that her voice is a little less than assured in places, please bear in mind that she has been a star for well over half a century and - even on her worst day - she can wipe the stage with the majority of today's so-called singers. This is character singing at its most effective and poignant. The world is better for having Angela in it.

  • Just saw her in a movie the other day on Turner Classics. She is so versatile.

    This was a very touching performance Michelle.

    thanks honey.

    love at Christmas dear.

    "Good nite luv" so precious.

    MamaLauren

  • She is the true definition of what an actress is. Someone who gives an amazing performance and not to just be in the spotlight. Hollywood nowadays could learn a big lesson from her. She is absolutely incredible.
