3) “Belle” – Beauty and the Beast
Paige O'Hara (as well as several other villagers and villain Gaston) sings for five minutes about the provincial town they live in. Belle is a strange girl who lives in her books and wants more in life than what the town has to offer her. Although this song and "Be Our Guest" were both nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1992, both songs lost to the song "Beauty and the Beast." However, this quaint song is a much catchier tune.
