Never knew I needed to see a Disney princess shredding on guitar, but as she descended the stairs, I was like YAS QUEEN!!
Right?!
@@zhaystyle Like that they didn't do the Hip Hopera. We love rock too.
THIS!!!
And trust H.E.R to match that iconic dress with some signature yellow tinted glasses
My life is now complete.
This was what was needed. Their voice compliment each other. Not trying to compete or outdo each other. They balance each other perfectly.
This year’s Beauty and the Beast is beautifully done. Congrats to all the performers, musicians and everyone who contributed to the show
Facts and than when Her came out with her guitar 🎸 she killed it
Thank you, thank you, something so beautifully put together 🤗. This is what peace and togetherness looks like... I 💕 it...
All great collabs/duets seem to do this. A perfect balance. I love it.😍
@Coco that's what's so great about art. It is subjective based on perspective. What you may not like, someone else may love. Doesn't make you wrong.
I know H.E.R. stole the show and deservedly so, but can we take a minute to acknowledge Josh Groban for being so consistent for 20 years
He is a legend at this point. What a talent.
if only we could have heard the guy who played Gaston sing more... then I'd be truly happy.
Yessss his voice is timeless and he’s so talented. I love how when he sings with talented women he lets them shine 🥰 because with that voice he could totally steal the show if he wanted
Timeless Voice! Josh Groban
Josh ain’t miss a beat still Got IT !!!
What I love about this performance is that H.E.R and Josh don't overpower each other; it's a duet, not a contest. Not to mention their voices blend wonderfully together.
Had to have Josh to make that girl sound halfway decent. She's so incredibly immature. My granddaughter can sing better than that girl could ever try to.
Cos Professionals ❤
A lot of people will miss the boat on this one. The show was excellent and the singing was excellent. I thank God I saw the show and heard her sing with my Josh I loved the whole evening. ❤️💙💚💜😍🥰🌹♥️
She overpowered Josh
@@1943673 they were singing together love them both. They are excellent together that's why we enjoyed the show. Both are excellent singer's. 🥰💙🧡💚💚🖤
No-one should underestimate the talent of H.E.R. She is at another level, ,and amazes me with each performance. Pairing H.E.R. with Groban was a real musical treat.
And absolutely genius.
Never underestimate!
💯
Blasian Queen! …and I’ve loved Josh Groban’s voice since I was a teen! ☺️🙌🏽💯🎵
She could be this generation’s “Prince” (the artist). Can make pop songs, sing, shreds on guitar. A real talent.
Incredible. When Belle came down that staircase with that riff … yasssss 👏🏽
That’s what I’m talking about!
How did I not know she could play like that? I do live on Earth, lol.
can we talk about how beautiful her guitar is, it's the stained glass 🌹
SAME
Side point: I think it's awesome she kept the glasses on after that guitar riff, while embodying a character of "beauty". Classic media up until the current 21st century has always depicted beauty without glasses -- when characters with glasses go through a "makeover", the glasses disappear. It's great that perspectives within media, and ultimately society itself, is changing.
THE GUITAR SOLO… i mean my God. i think this really showed us how musically inclined and DIVERSE she really is. well done. like ugh
She plays piano too
I actually didn’t really care for it, myself. I love showy musicians like Van Halen and Steve Vai, but the tone and “edgy” approach didn’t work for me in this arrangement.
@@cpjds1 u cannot compare HER to other musicians. she’s literally one of a kind
@@cpjds1 I agree, it reminds me of when Spongebob started shredding and floating, but this time it isn't for comedic purposes
I thought Brian May was about to step out and was shocked to realise it was H.E.R.
Can NEVER go wrong with Josh Groban, good lord he is amazing.
Well h.e.r was there too lol
@@malanamorrison8868 um you must have not grown up listening to Celine, Whitney and Mariah. Because H.E.R sounds like an average singer. Gen Z is used to mediocrity.
Agreed! He is incredibly talented
He was the best part of all of it!!
Oh yeah the girl that can sing and play guitar doesn’t matter…. Give me a break 🙄
HER lower register is incredible, so much control, a soft texture and fullness. Josh Groban really used to be known for his baritone but his upper register so silky smooth. I also love how they switched up who held the melody and high harmony. Incredible arrangement! Incredible performance!
He’s a tenor not baritone.
@@dasingaman1 He’s not a tenor because he doesn’t have that high c to be considered a tenor; He’s a Lyric Baritone
@@kiaraeijo correct. Not a tenor at all lol. Music experts out here with no ears
Josh Groban was never a baritone lol
@@SE-gs6gd He doesn’t have that high c that Pavarotti and Michael Jackson have. To be a tenor, you have to have that high c and Josh Groban doesn’t have that high c
It's about time Josh Groban was a Disney prince. He can charm the fish right out of the sea with his voice.
this made me want him fr
Josh has always been a prince to me. Nice to see it being official
His voice 😮
He has a great voice but is not physically attractive
@@childofgodforever6614 ah respectfully I disagree. He’s 100% my type, possibly even created my type.
When H.E.R. plays the guitar, I realize that real BEAUTY is not afraid being different.
Your comment made me cry. You are so right!
🖤💛
This was the live action remake we deserved ✨
Her dress was DEFINITELY SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!! Than the 2017 disappointment we got! 😏
Belle’s dress in this is 100 times better than the one in the live action movie. The VOCALS!!!
Agreed
1,000% PERCENT AGREED!!!!
YES! SOMEONE ELSE SAID IT! 10000000% true
Thank you!!!! That dress sucked and it was boring! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Belle dress and casting both better then the live action movie
I can't get enough of this! Growing up as a Black and Filipina girl, I was always taunted that only blonde girls can be princesses. I am a senior citizen now, but so happy and proud that I witnessed this in my lifetime!
I'm so sorry that happened to you that's not just cruel it's totally inaccurate the first Disney princess (Snow White) wasn't even blonde.
Reyna is such a princess name, the fools who told you that when you were little had no idea what they were talking about.
@@thevoidalone and guess what? I was chosen as the Santacruzan pageant queen when I visited the Philippines at age 23. Of course, the photos were posted years later on FB, to shut up those classmates who had the nerve to send friend requests.
You don’t need to be a princess anymore because now you’re a queen!!!
@@thevoidalone Reyna actually means queen.
I will never get over Josh Groban! His voice is so beautiful and distinct. Love him
It is! His voice is really touched by God himself. Crisp, honest perfection!
He is beyond good, I don’t get why he he didn’t get as much recognition as he should of
The perfect prince voice!
Best version since the original. Would love a studio version.
Thanks for your lovely like and comments on my official page, it's great to know I have such a devoted fan,much love💜
I did not realize how much soul Josh had! Their voice blended perfectly and the guitar solo was perfect!
Listen to his Christmas album
@@jordanbennett664 Will do!
What you talking about that man grew up in the hoods of Inglewood.
Yass Best friend!!
Yep he's the real deal. Versatile!
The way H.E.R captured Belle’s character, soft and feminine, yet emotionally strong, loyal, and sweetly stubborn, blew me away. I was tearing up during the whole special but I lost it when they sang this one. Such a beautiful rendition of the original. They made me fall in love with Beauty and the Beast all over again 💛
Right! It makes me want to watch the movie!
Emotionally strong, sweetly stubborn, etc is not contrasted to femininity. Femininity is not acting like ditz; that is HYPER femininity. Two different things.
So beautiful! 👑👸🏾❤️♥️
@@barbymadison878 Always someone who wants to recite their genders study professors opinion and ruin the moment 😂
Such an incredible performance. Their voices paired so well together and I love how neither tried to over power the other. Both so talented
Josh is talented. That girl not so much.
@@pamelahicks517 you are lying H.E.R is very talented.
@@pamelahicks517 It's just sad at this point when people make shit up when there is video evidence of the contrary.
Josh’s voice fits this so well. Their voices alone AND together are so soothing
Their voices blended so beautifully, no oversinging just beauty 💫
I’m glad you said this. I love X-Tina & she can sing anything, but for a while she would over-sing songs. J-HUD would do the same early in her career, but she has dialed it back, A lot. Sometimes less is better with certain songs.
@@DontCryDryYourEye_DaTruthHurts You are so right!
They both have buttery smooth voices. Ugh they fit so well together.
Don’t even get me started on HER. She literally looks like a disney princess like literally her FACE was made to be one.
That part!!!
I loved seeing her play the guitar
Josh Groban has been melting me since his first album!
josh just silently admiring h.e.r.'s voice at 0:49 is really sweet 🥺🥺
He closes his eyes at the high note.
Her tone and manner of singing is amazing, beautifully understated with the vocal rolls etc.
Shows the skill but isn't showboating.
Really beautiful.
Then she shreds the guitar, amazing
Nice noticing he felt her voice. 👍 👍
I’m a 90s baby. The animated versions of these stories will always hold top billing in my heart. But!!!! This…this was STUNNING!!!!!
And their soundtracks. Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson nailed it. But we always deserve covers with Josh Groban and H.E.R.
Stunning it was!
@@suezcontours6653 imo, this version is better and more suitable than Ariana and John Legend's version. I just like this one better
This is the Disney Duet we needed and deserved! HER’s and Josh Groban’s voices were so crisp and clear that they just blended so well together! Also HER in THAT dress and doing the epic guitar solo is just beyond amazing!! ♥️♥️
Usually remakes can’t compete with the originals, but this one is on par
"on par" is a bit of a reach. "as good as it gets for a cover" seems reasonable.
HER Vs Celine.....?? Celine took this song out of orbit....
this was so beautiful i cried. as a filipino girl, seeing H.E.R. playing a princess ive known since i was little was everything i needed
Filipino and black!
Oh I love that!!
She is half Black
Guys don't do that. We'd be pissed off if a young black girl identified with this character because she finally got to see herself there, and then somebody tried to cut it short by saying but she's also Filipino. The op said that she as a Filipino person, never removing or holding One race over the other. Just identifying with H.E.R. Please we don't want it done to us, don't do it to someone else.
My dad is Filipino. He's one of 7 kids who all married outside their race and had children of their own. Trust me, I love him and my white mom equally as I'm sure H.E.R. fully embraces both parents backgrounds. She's beautiful and gifted. Let's celebrate that!
Man I’m living for HER’s rockstar moment!! Seeing her come out with that guitar was everything!! She’s so phenomenal!!
I don't think she was actually playing the part - just performing.
I did not understand that at all. 18th c. costumes and an electric guitar? How odd.
Josh's voice is still so beautiful after so many years, amazing.
They should make n album of love songs together. They’re voices are magic together.
Beauty is not just in being a damsel and reading books, it's also wearing iconic glasses while doing AN EPIC GUITAR SOLO
Why the glasses in that part?
@@monicasabatini9050 it's H.E.R.'s iconic look
The moment H.E.R. re-enters with an electric guitar….YES 💛
No matter how old I get, the moment this song comes on - in any iteration - I cry like a baby!
Ughh, my Disney heart 💛
It’s a beautiful song!!
@@JoshuaWinslowGroban-kh6mm Can’t wait to join 😍😀
Two things. First I really wish they would have done a studio version of those two singing this because I’ve waited years to hear Josh sing this song. Second. I never noticed that when she came down the steps playing the guitar that the guitar is a stain glass rose and that’s freaking beautiful. Very well done.
This version of Beauty and the Beast captured the same magic and beauty that the Celine Dion/Peabo Bryson version had which the John Legend/Ariana Grande version lacked. I started tearing up when Josh Groban and H.E.R. walked down the stairs with their costumes. Also, H.E.R’s yellow dress captures the essence of Belle better than the yellow dress that Emma Watson wore in the live action remake.
Yes! This comment right here!
So true. This is really, really good.
esatto
They are all great in their own different way stop comparing them they all offer something different
Quit being so jaded and accept that they all offer something different and their own unique charm
Peabo Bryson has very unique and easily recognizable voice.
1:01 I didn't realize how much I missed Josh's voice. Incomparable.
Also: *can we talk about the costuming department? WOW!*
like i said he reminded me of the marshmallow monster costume in FROZEN live @ Disney
YES! The costuming department deserves all the laurels - their designs were INCREDIBLE ❤
I wasn't entirely moved by the beast costume, but all else waa great.
Their voices go so so well together, amazing.
Thanks for your lovely like and comments on my official page, it's great to know I have such a devoted fan, much love💜.
Their voices harmonizing and melt like butter h.e.r has the voice made for belle ❤
H.E.R. putting on her glasses when she plays guitar is the perfect end of an era fr this is amazing
This collaboration is actually incredible , their voices match so well!
Omg so well!
H.E.R IS SO GORGEOUS IN THIS!!!
Belle has been my favorite Disney princess since the movie came out. I always wish I could see a black Belle, even in just pictures, so to see H.E.R. brings tears to my eyes not to mention the guitar playing! The little girl in me is so excited and happy. Thank you for this. 🥰💛💙
The beauty of being an 80’s baby & 90’s kid is that you got to be a kid during the release of some of the best Disney classics ever made. This is one of them. They did a good job.
Sincerely,
80’s baby.
Yes 90’s Baby
Bless.
Winter, THIS is the best comment.
It’s the best way to describe it. It’s the best way to look at it, and it’s the absolute truth.
Our Disney movies were absolutely magical to us!
We were/are so blessed for those movies and memories. (If other generations don’t get it, then I simply feel badly for them.)
💫⭐️🌟
Winter, my favorite Disney/animated movies are The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, Beauty & the Beast, Aladdin, Bambi, Peter Pan, Lady & the Tramp, 101 Dalmatians, Snow White, Cinderella. What are some of yours?
@@SeattleRaindrop206 “Beauty and the Beast” and “The Little Mermaid” are my favorites from “my generation” (meaning they were released during my generation).
I also love “Lady & the Tramp” and the “Robin Hood” cartoon (I believe that was the first cartoon VHS my mom bought for us, so I have fond memories of being so excited and watching it with my siblings over and over). These are probably the four that I am most nostalgic for and love the most.
Later on when I was a little older - still a kid, but an older kid, I guess my two favorites would be “The Lion King” and “Anastasia.”
Have you ever seen the Robin Hood cartoon?
I think they made Celine and Peabo very proud. This was absolutely beautiful!!!
They did
They made the right choice casting those tow their voices are perfect together & her Killed it on the guitar solo thats the first time I've ever seen a Disney Princess rock out like that
This is what a princess looks and sounds like. Talented and beautiful,
Beautiful blending of two voices, each true to her/his own style. HER’s adlib “Just a little change” is so subtly placed. Josh’s velvet tone. The haunting cello in the background. Then the electrifying guitar riff. What an unforgettable finale! Music artistry at its best. So proud of HER representing her Afro Filipino lineage.
That adlib❤Damn!!!!
I am 65yo and have emotionally lived through all the reincarnations of this movie from it's beginning in 1990. It's very emotional to us all and that credit goes directly to Alan Menken, who wrote this incredible music that has inspired all of these talented performers to recreate it, over and over again, with so much passion and conviction. I am blown away by this performance from H.E.R and Josh Groban! Spectacular!!! Bravo, Bravo!!!!!!
Absolutely magickal
I'm 64 and I loved this version, too!
Let's not forget to also thank the lyricist Howard Ashman who the original movie was dedicated to and who died before the film was completed. You cannot give Alan all the credit because without Howard, his work wouldn't have been the same.
Ashman and Menken were a powerful duo indeed.
H.E.R looks gorgeous as Belle and has such a stunning voice! I’ve never seen or heard of her before but I’m excited to see more from H.E.R.
You will! She has been chosen to play Squeak in the 2023 movie musical The Color Purple
Representation matters so much. Never would I have ever thought I would see someone like me black and Filipino get casted in a roll like this. I am so proud.
That girl hit them riffs on them stairs like she was Prince 😍💪👏
A TRUE DISNEY PRINCESS THAT CAN ROCK 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Literally!! 😎🤘🎸🔥
@@naytube2.068 I never knew I needed a rock solo in this. I grew up loving rock but never displayed it out loud.
I LOVE the rocker Belle!!!
They voices🗣️😭♥️♥️
Seeing Belle play an electric guitar is something I never knew I wanted!
So beautiful! Why did her guitar solo give me Prince vibes??? So good
RIGHT?! I think he would’ve been proud
Same ❤️
H.E.R coming out with the electric guitar solo just feels like a deleted scene from the movie
JOSH NEEDS TO BE DISNEY PRINCE!! And…. H. E. R. …. If Prince had a daughter..💜💜💜
Josh Groban is ELITE. And H.E.R. absolutely shined. This is top notch!
The guitar, the glasses, the dress change… iconic and awe-inspiring 😭 I love HER 😍
Josh looked exceptionally good in this. Something about how they did his hair & the beard working together.
Im just crying , how could it be so perfect omg ?????
She put her signature on this song with the guitar and the glasses. I love it 💖
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS😍
the way H.E.R. looks beautiful in the yellow gown, how Josh looks at her with admiration in the beginning, the way their voices compliment each other, the stained-glass guitar whewww
The metal bustier details! 😭 the crystals and the flounce! 😭😭 the shoulder pads! 😭😭😭
I know the dress in the 2017 live action was "small" because Emma wanted to be able to dance in it (compared to Lily James' Cinderella dress), but surely you could dance in THIS DRESS?????
We finly got Josh Groban to be the prince we never get with disney musical adaptations.
Still as awesome even after the years.
Y’all that guitar moment shook me to my core!!!!!!! Every once of my spirit screamed!!!!!! WHAT A MOMENT
It was just beautiful Josh and HER what a wonderful job, just gave me chill.
H.E.R. put that RnB vibe in the song and made it her own. As a full-blooded Filipino myself, I love that she is so proud of her Filipino heritage. The music was so refreshing and she's so amazing!
She is stunning. Another stunning voice of Filipino origin is Lea Salonga and just as Lea, H.E.R. paint her songs with emotion.
I love her! 🥰
Is she a Filipino? 🤔
@@theriskirusk she’s half Filipino half black. Her mom’s Filipino.
@@tabris0153276 Lea Salonga is one of my favorite performers, her voice is so good!
H.E.R looks so beautiful in that dress 😩🙌🏾 and both did amazing singing together
Sitting over here crying like a baby......that was BEAUTIFUL! 🥲❤️💖💕
I literally teared up watching this performance. H.E.R deserves all of the blessings she receives and so do her fellow cast members. Seeing the representation Disney is incorporating for every young girl to feel beautiful and represented is amazing!
I did too. So beautiful.
representation is a new concept. No kid thought this when I was a kid. it was a cartoon film. even when the live cinderella came out, there was all kinds of races and personalities and still wasn't mentioned. this video is nonetheless a great importance. feeling beautiful and important is also inside us, no matter what disney said.
@@Skatejock21it might be new to you, it’s certainly not new overall.
@@imjinnie I think new in that sense that it's being shoved into everything and forced down people's throats with no logical explanation but to make an character black to appease colored people thinking they want every character black washed randomly.
The guitarrrrr! It’s the stained glass with the rose. Wow!
Scrolled way too long to find this comment! I was gonna say they were incredible but why is no one talking short that guitar?!
@@royalxjade6064 it’s a literal work of art!
She’s truly so incredibly gorgeous.
So glad I tuned in to watch this a year ago. Magical night!
They didn't try to make her fit the regular Aesthetics of a Disney princess. They let her be a princess in her own identity, expressing in her own special way. Not trying to mold her into a Disney typical image. I found myself wanting to hear the typical Disney tone of voice from her, but this is so organic and beautiful like her! And Josh held up a blended balance between old and new while giving us the traditional expression and poise of a Disney prince. ❤
Basically they weren’t too white?
@@FirstLast-dy4gt who said that? You are aware that there is a live-action beauty and the beast adaption which everybody hated due to; the vocals being wrongly tuned & emma watson's design of the dress being bad
@user-yi9qk5iv7o I assumed the OP was talking about the guitar and sunglasses. As they are H.E.R.'s signatures. H.E.R. also plays piano and drums. But the majority of the time, she is on one of 3 guitars. And I hardly ever see her without the round sunglasses, whether it be in an interview or performing on a stage. So, I thought it was cool that producers brought/allowed those elements in this performance.
@@princessmanitari4993 they were singing off key?
That Guitar solo made me cry!! H.E.R is so beautiful and talented. Definitely raised the bar!!
Omg H.E.R is such an icon!!!
Josh has come a long way. The Goat and a living legend
The vocal chemistry between these two is golden. I’d love to see them collaborate on something else in the future.
I'll always love H.E.R's tone! Ugh, the way she sang 'Tale as old as time' at 2:48 - such a heart warmer. It's the little notes changes like these that do it for me, as opposed to someone riffing/running up and down a whole song lmaooo (not to say she did it here but just in general). And daddy Josh... Eats everytime! Such a powerful voice with so much control. i liveee
How Beautiful 😍 ❤️ 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️
👏👏👏
Well said! I really personally can't take people who over do runs like someone is chasing them. Too many runs ruins performances for me, but H.E.R always gets it right. She understands nuance.
That was the most badass guitar solo I ever heard🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think her second outfit with the pants was a nod to her Filipino heritage. Beautiful.
This is the female version of Prince. This was a good special on TV and my 47 year old self watched it twice. I love the music and I cannot get enough of Josh Groban’s voice. Fell in all likes with him since appearing on the Ally McBeal show.
I remember that Ally McBeal episode! Thanks for reminding 😊
Groban was born to play sing this role!! 😊💖
This is why I love H.E.R she is so versatile ❤️❤️❤️ you go boo... So beautiful
His voice...I melt instantly..
Whoever directed and choreographed this DID THEIR THING.....this pulled together awesomely.
Wow, that was stunning! Geez Josh Groban can sing his butt off. His tone is so pleasing to the ear. He could sing the phone book and I’d listen. Then Her ate every minute of that up and the electric guitar solo, c’mon! That was an incredible performance!
That woman has some beautiful pipes and talent! Amazing! ❤❤❤❤
YESSSS EVERY GIRL DESERVES TO BE A PRINCESS AND OHHHH MAMAAAA SHE IS BREATH TAKINGGGGG✨✨✨✨❤️❤️❤️
Omg🥺That was such a beautiful performance!!!🥰 Who knew a H.E.R. and Josh Grobin collab was what the world needed! ❤
I'm sorry but HER dress is so much more better, feels much more magical than the live-action one.. damn! Loving this performace💕🥀
riiight the live action dress was so disappointing it didn’t have the magical feeling to it
@@_jori.05blame Emma Watson for that one
@@mackenzie1555it was hard for her to dance in and walk in and to heavy
First time I’ve seen her full face. No glasses, no shades. She’s so beautiful 🥺
H.E.R.(Gabriella Wilson) is our hometown Filipino/African American prodigy child, Academy Award winner, 5 time Grammy Award winner, several children's awards, and Billboard Awards, from the San Francisco Bay Area city of VALLEJO, CALIFORNIA, one day we hope she'll return to perform for us, in the Filipino Community of Solano County very soon. Maybe @ SIX FLAGS DISCOVERY KINGDOM in VALLEJO... As a born and also raised in VALLEJO, I AM EVEN PROUD OF HER, WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST H.E.R. SALAMAT PO, KUYAS Mr. Duane B. & TSgt. Parker M.

Her guitar solo and singing brought tears to my eyes ❤️
Mine too!😢
DID YOUBSEE THE DESIGN FOR THE GUITAR!! 😱🫠😍
@@mydearchere4082 I’ll take one, please, to go.
Guitar solo ruined it! It was perfect without it.
@@TheDevilsAdvocate1984thinking the same
Just WOW!! They both complimented each other very well. His voice was so smooth and strong. Not over singing each other. This was amazingly Beautiful performance! The orchestra was phenomenal as well. ❤
100% agree.
They were so good. I love Josh Groban! A guitar playing princess. Come on now. Awesome!
I just noticed how HERs ball gown turns into a jumpsuit when she has the guitar. Awesome.
