"Beauty and the Beast" (Erik ♥ Christine/ Leon ♥ Bella) Phantom of the Opera, La Bella e la Bestia

PLEASE READ: (Lyrics & dialogue & links to movie below)- watch in HD for best experience…this song has been on my request list for so long- but only recently was I inspired, after watching this new miniseries, and this is also the introduction to a new fandom I’m adding of Leon & Bella (Beauty and the Beast). By request for Renee Harmond, (who asked for 2004 PotO with this song; I hope you don’t mind that I added this other fandom, instead of LND like I said I might, but this BatB reminds me so much of Phantom too.) A special thanks to Lina NoPlaceForSanity (without your wonderful English subs you added to your clips, I would never have been able to watch this amazing story- so thank you!) – and also thanks to Chanel Kamai for posting me about this delightful and unique take on Beauty and the Beast story, what has become a favorite movie. :) Story follows lyrics. Some symbolism- mainly with the effects and what is going on at the time. Clips credit- Serie TV Italia and Lux. There are many similarities between Erik & Christine and Leon & Bella – only a few of which I’ve shown. This song really fits both couples well… Here are the links to the movie (w/ English subs)

Dialogue-
Be very careful, Bella - don't trust the prince...
Bella- I thought you loved me, but I was only a bet
Leon- You're still mine, Bella... mine!
Christine- I gave you my mind blindly
Erik- Your chains are still mine- you belong to me!
Leon- Don't die, Bella... don't die! ... I no longer want to hide.

"Beauty And The Beast" sung by Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson

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 a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

[2x]
Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun
Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast.

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast.

Beauty and the beast.
