Thank you! Someone finally said it! I wished they had not done the "Oh we're writing 3 new songs" bullsh*t and just put the songs for the musical into the new movie. They could've done so much with them. Especially this song and "Human Again." That's the thing that really annoys me about this new movie.
Alan Menken tried hard to get this song into the movie, but it is just too Broadway. Tim Rice told him it would be like writing "Don't Cry For Me Brazil." It just wouldn't work.
I agree. This and Home were my two most favorite songs from the animation. I also didn't like that they took out the exchange between Belle and Beast when she was teaching him how to read, it was crucial in the development of their relationship.
I adored Terrance for years. I got to see him in BEAUTIFUL AND THE BEST not long after it opened. After the show I was at the stage door and got to talk to him when he came out. He was such a friendly person.
My best friend Sebastian worked with him during his summer stock days performing while in collage. Terance Mann and his wife were wonderful to him and his family. I saw Beauty during the second week of previews and he was awesome, and then saw him in Scarlet Pimpernel and was just as awesome. Every Actor is entitled to have some bad days for all the comments saying other actors were better than him. Did any one see his interview describing what it is like wearing that costume and make up night after night day after day for his double shows on wednesdays and sat and sundays? it was like taping 30 angora cats to your entire body and running around the black or through central park.
@@wwozanewmusical Yikes..maybe they should have had an alternate and switched them each performance. I know the role of Chrstine from POTO is done that way.
As far as I know, the original makeup was too heavy and difficult for Terry to perform in so they cut it down a bit. I think they did the right thing anyway because he looks like there really is a man trapped in the body of a crossbreed between a bison, a wolf and a lion.
"And in my twisted face There's not the slightest trace Of anything that even hints of kindness And from my tortured shape No comfort, no escape I see, but deep within is utter blindness Hopeless As my dream dies As the time flies Love a lost illusion Helpless Unforgiven Cold and driven To this sad conclusion No beauty could move me No goodness improve me No power on earth, if I can't love her No passion could reach me No lesson could teach me How I could have loved her and make her love me too If I can't love her, then who? Long ago I should have seen All the things I could have been Careless and unthinking, I moved onward No pain could be deeper No life could be cheaper No point anymore, if I can't love her No spirit could win me No hope left within me Hope I could have loved her and that she'd set me free But it's not to be If I can't love her Let the world be done with me."
He was my absolute favorite Broadway star for all the shows he took to unimaginable heights. I was fortunate enough to see the original Broadway cast, and he had me sobbing when he sang this. Afterward I actually spoke with him at the stage door. Both of us being from Kentucky got me a longer conversation than I could have ever hoped for. I’ll never forget that night.
He has dramatic flair, and vocal uniqueness that I have yet to hear anywhere else. James Barbour sacrifices a little acting to deliver a lush powerful baritone, my two favorite beast.
@@rickstalentedtongue910 Terrence Mann is an actor first and foremost and I don't care about singing. Disney should have filmed the show with the OG cast for release, the obc is what made it magic and nobody can be Terrence, he is the only 'beast'/Prince. It was before I was born and I'd anything to see him. I wish Terry had choose a career in movies instead, that way I could watch him, but most of all because he deserved much more.
@@saxongirl2054 No, he had an incredible Broadway career originating roles in Les Miserables, Cats, Beauty and the Beast, Scarlet Pimpernel etc..He was meant for the stage.
I remember seeing this on Broadway and being blown away. I saw it last year in my home state. Not to this magnitude but it was pretty amazing. I love this version (terrance) he was absolutely amazing! And the costumes...Wow!! This version blows me away everytime. Such a passionate song & time in the play. I wish they would have put this in the cartoon.
Brings back great memories of seeing Terrence's amazing performance in Los Angeles 20 years ago! Josh Groban's new version is excellent, but great acting+ great singing= the very best of live musical theatre!!!
Wow, to be able to sing and project like he does, while showing the delicateness The Beast is supposed to reveal at this juncture is simply breathtaking! To the naysayers, this show was the night of my marriage proposal and could not have gone any more perfect. 3:17
AlwaysGonnaSing It really is tough sometimes. I’m Shrek in my schools version of Shrek the musical and LET ME TELL YOU it is SOOOO tough to portray facial emotion sometimes
One of my very favourite songs period!! The power & pain of this never fails to give me the chills. Sigh...How I wish Brian Boitano had skated to this back in the day. It would’ve been perfect for him.
David Gottfried Except that the musical premiered in 1993. So unless I’ve been doing mathematical subtraction wrong my entire life, he had been doing the role for no more than two years at this point. This was also filmed in Los Angeles after Mann had left the Broadway cast. Taken together, those two facts mean that your entire comment is flat-out wrong. Maybe you should do your research before inserting your two cents that literally no one asked for? Just saying 🤷🏻♂️
@@regularjosh1 sure, he said "premiered" and not opened, but between it and the context of what he was replying to, he's clearly suggesting the broadway production opened in 1993
@@jarretheaston979 And the Chauvelin. The OBC The Scarlet Pimpernel was the first play I ever saw. I was eight. I fell in love with The Scarlet Pimpernel and Terrence Mann who stole the show. Not an easy feat against Douglas Sills and Christine Andreas.
I performed in the show when it toured the UK (in about 2006) as a child playing chip for a little while, when I ended up going to drama school, and I had to pick an audition song… there was only one choice ❤
Guys just so you know 8 shows a week with all that heavy makeup and prosthetics can probably be tiring. So this performance wasn’t the best. If you want to see it at its best, listen to the album
What an extraordinary voice, expressiveness, and powerful acting, it even comes through the horrible makeup, as so many nuances are expressed in every line with the voice. I'm weeping it was so moving.
My only real complaint with the live action Beauty and the Beast was that the directer felt the need to disregard the songs from the Broadway show, and felt they had to add new ones, this song would have worked where Evermore is placed with or without the reprise? I would have rather seen Gaston sing ME, over the scene they gave the two of them. But I do love how does a moment last for ever, and the bit about Belles mother.
Are we all going to pretend that he didn't say 'No bean could be deeper' instead of pain at 3:01? He's still amazing but…I can't be the only one who noticed that?
Well, his diction and pronunciation is very poor in this performance - particularly in the latter half of the song, and if I didn't already know the lyrics, I think the whole line would sound like "noooobeaagoobeedeebeer," so I'm not surprised that it does sound like "bean".
His subtlety and gentle sound brings you to nearly tears in the beginning; it’s like your listening to a real beast; it sounds like he truly feels that pain. But when the song picks up, he drops the ball because he keeps that same gentle style in his expression and movement; making him actually seem kinda bored.
they have a full video recording of the original cast they could have released or at least stream. Tom Bosley Heath Lamberts and Gary Beach deserve this tribute but the disney mercenaries don't care. It makes me angry that Terrence Mann wasted his potential on musical theatre he should have had a career in movies
He took a lot of liberties, and I’m in favor of those sort of choices. Very touching representation of the complex character in a simply rendered fashion. Nice recording!
I remember my choir director tried to put this song in our show set. It was so cool however the boys thought it was too hard lol so this was a show dress gone unused lol
I am doing a school production very soon I have been chosen to portray the beast I am getting nervous because I am not familiar with this song because it was not in the movie version I tried to ask my music teacher to take it out the script but he had written the script and I got to do it just very nervous
Wait... This song isn't in the junior version. Is your school actually doing the full show (Broadway's version) HOW? Or did your teacher just add it in?
+thephantomfantasia Oh wow okay. Good luck to you man because this is a tough song to do. I'm sure you'll do amazingly though or he wouldn't have you do it in the first place!
Oh man, we're doing the Broadway version at my school with all the songs (we're gonna die). Auditions are tomorrow and a snippet of this song has to be prepared for callbacks the day after. I really don't know if anyone could really do this song justice at our school besides our director.
Beautiful voice, but boy he must've been tired this day. He looks and sounds totally bored, and waiting for the cues... a pretty lackluster performance from a fantastic performer.
Terrance Mann may be the original Beast, but he's far from being the best. And this is not the only recording of him having a bad time, which makes me wonder if he's really all that good people say.
@@CarlosFadiga I think he just had trouble performing under all the heavy costuming and makeup. He clearly knows what the character beats are supposed to be, and if you watch other scenes from the show, the same is certainly true. He just looks tired and weighed down. And on the OBCR, unimpeded, he knocked it out of the park
it says los angelas 1995. Terrence Mann was never in the Los Angelas production. when most of the OBC went to the LA Production. James Barbour took over as the beast in LA.
I agree with half of the comments that he sounds hella bored. It sounds unenthusiastic, slurred, and even rushed in a lot of places. Also, that ending note sounded nasally af.
I'm sorry. Every time I see this, I keep going back to Jim Henson's "Dark Crystal" character "Aughra" when I see this miserable made-up interpretation of "Beast". At least Beast has two eyes...
In my honest opinion this is a terrible performance he is obviously falling asleep has no standing notes and does not even try to act in character. Even though working on Broadway is a stressful job and requires lots of stamina it also requires you to give everything you have every performance which is not shown in this performance although I do have the greatest of respect for this actor.
I thought that too until I realized this song was in a completely different place in the story than Evermore. Evermore is about the heartbreak when he realizes he’s in love with Belle and lets her go. If I Can’t Love Her is about despondency and hopelessness, it’s sung before he’s even in love with her.
I don't even like musicals or disney but he is perfection... his acting... his voice... His eyes just like the Prince's eyes. Such an underrated actor
the fact that this is cut from the new film is so so so sad
yep, hard to believe.

Honestly it doesn’t make a difference. He still goes hard and the ending still slaps.
This is one of my favorite Disney musical
My all time favourite Beast! Beautiful bass tones but power in the upper register! Perfect for the Beast! 👏🏼
Beautiful ..
"And in my twisted face
There's not the slightest trace
Of anything that even hints of kindness
And from my tortured shape
No comfort, no escape
I see, but deep within is utter blindness
Hopeless
As my dream dies
As the time flies
Love a lost illusion
Helpless
Unforgiven
Cold and driven
To this sad conclusion
No beauty could move me
No goodness improve me
No power on earth, if I can't love her
No passion could reach me
No lesson could teach me
How I could have loved her and make her love me too
If I can't love her, then who?
Long ago I should have seen
All the things I could have been
Careless and unthinking, I moved onward
No pain could be deeper
No life could be cheaper
No point anymore, if I can't love her
No spirit could win me
No hope left within me
Hope I could have loved her and that she'd set me free
But it's not to be
If I can't love her
Let the world be done with me."
Why you put down the wards from the song ?
Wish it was added but least we got Evermore a new song :)
bro this song makes me cry because it’s so flipping emotionallll poor beasty
Terrence Mann never disappoints
He was my absolute favorite Broadway star for all the shows he took to unimaginable heights.
I was fortunate enough to see the original Broadway cast, and he had me sobbing when he sang this.
Afterward I actually spoke with him at the stage door.
Both of us being from Kentucky got me a longer conversation than I could have ever hoped for.
I’ll never forget that night.
He has dramatic flair, and vocal uniqueness that I have yet to hear anywhere else. James Barbour sacrifices a little acting to deliver a lush powerful baritone, my two favorite beast.

It must be hard to effectively emote a song like this under all that makeup. Especially the eyebrows.
It depends on the actor.
Its all about the eyes and voice to emote.
AlwaysGonnaSing It really is tough sometimes. I’m Shrek in my schools version of Shrek the musical and LET ME TELL YOU it is SOOOO tough to portray facial emotion sometimes
And that just proves how incredible of an actor Terrence was/is!
It probably helps with the character because the Beast dosen’s show a lot of emotions
I saw one of these shows May 26, 1995 at the Shubert Theatre in Century City.

this is so much better than evermore
I like them both the same.
Chocobear555 I agree this is more affectionate than Evermore but I still think evermore is the best song in the movie
This song certainly makes more sense to the Beast's mood when the villagers attack the castle, but "Evermore" is nonetheless a beautiful song.
Amen! Why they didn’t use the music from the Broadway show in the new film, I will never know. This is gorgeous!
If i can't love her apparently was too broadway to make it into the film, so Alan Menken wrote Evermore exclusivly for the film :)

No emotions. Maybe it was his off day.

Am I the only one that thinks this performance wasn't his strongest? in fact it was very weak. I have heard much better from Terrance than this.
Matt Cammelle was the best. You can feel his emotions through his song.
Joe Velazquez
Let me check him.
Joe Velazquez
He's the second best after Matt Cammelle. Especially the last high notes. And both of them are the most operatic Beasts.
Lol lol. Two beasts throwing the tantrums.
Eric Morgan maybe he had a cold at the time
I'm sorry. Every time I see this, I keep going back to Jim Henson's "Dark Crystal" character "Aughra" when I see this miserable made-up interpretation of "Beast". At least Beast has two eyes...
Hes rushinging.... its not atmospherically correct personally
In my honest opinion this is a terrible performance he is obviously falling asleep has no standing notes and does not even try to act in character. Even though working on Broadway is a stressful job and requires lots of stamina it also requires you to give everything you have every performance which is not shown in this performance although I do have the greatest of respect for this actor.
He looks bored
wonder if this was what the director asked of him
Definitely not. He's different on other nights, much better, just that night must've been an off day for him
Good singing voice, but man is he way too stiff and wooden in movement
Not bad, but to me Evermore is much more moving and emotional.
I actually agree
I thought that too until I realized this song was in a completely different place in the story than Evermore. Evermore is about the heartbreak when he realizes he’s in love with Belle and lets her go. If I Can’t Love Her is about despondency and hopelessness, it’s sung before he’s even in love with her.
🤪: “If I Can’t Love Her” is the better song for the Beast!
🤓: No, “Evermore” is!
🫅🏻 (Me): I love both.
A much better song than Evermore
