A White Rose (Score) 13. The Beast (Score) 14. Meet The Staff (Score) 15. Home (Extended Remix) (Score) 16. Madame de Garderobe (Score) 17. Gaston 18. There's a Beast (Score) 19. A Petal Drops (Score) 20. A Bracing Cup of Tea (Score) 21. Be Our Guest 22. The West Wing (Score) 23. Wolves Attack Belle (Score) 24. Days in the Sun 25. The Library (Score) 26. Something There 27. Colonnade Chat (Score) 28. How Does a Moment Last Forever (Montmartre) 29. The Plague (Score) 30. Maurice Accuses Gaston (Score) 31. Beast Takes a Bath (Score) 32. The Dress (Score) 33. Beauty and the Beast 34. You Must Go to Him (Score) 35. Evermore 36. Belle Stops the Wagon (Score) 37. The Mob Song 38. Castle Under Attack (Score) 39. Turret Pursuit (Score) 40. You Came Back (Score) 41. Transformations (Score) 42. Beauty and the Beast (Finale) ---End of movie--- ---Credits--- 43. How does a Moment Last Forever (CĂ©line Dion) 44. Beauty and the Beast (Ariana Grande & John Legend) 45. Evermore (Josh Groban) ---End of credits--- The following songs are not used in the movie itself, except song 47. 46. Overture (Score) 47. Main Title: Prologue (Score) (Instrumental and combined version of Main Title: Prologue, Pt 1 and Main Title: Prologue, Pt 2) 48. Aria (Demo) 49. How Does a Moment Last Forever (Music Box) (Demo) 50. Days in the Sun (Demo) 51. How Does a Moment Last Forever (Montmartre) (Demo) 52. Evermore (Demo) Hearing the score combined with the movie, it does add up in my opinion. Especially Dan Stevens' "Evermore" is beautiful to watch. If you're going to see the movie, try and see it in IMAX 3D, it really emerges you into what's happening.

Thanks for putting the album in order, I agree it sounds much better with the songs and score intact. With this I decided to listen to the music before watching the film. Considering my great appreciation for the original film and it's music, I knew I would have a hard time swallowing this one. At least by listening to the complete soundtrack beforehand, I would be less surprised by changes to the music I am so familiar with. Personally, I believe this helped me appreciate the film that much more. I wasn't spending much of my time cringing or thinking in my head of the many things they changed. Nonetheless I do lament my favorite piece of the score now missing, the reveal of the castle library, as it was reinterpreted. Prior to seeing the film my first thought about the soundtrack was, "This sounds more like a Broadway musical than a movie soundtrack." Now after seeing the film, I appreciate the music more because I'm more familiar with the melodies from the new songs that are now sprinkled throughout the score. My only gripe is Emma Watson's voice. Her voice is not bad by any means, but compared to every other person singing, her voice pales in comparison. I do wish she sang more than spoke the songs, but other than that it was very enjoyable. So is this soundtrack better than the original? No. But it is hard to compare a classic with a new interpretation. So then, is this soundtrack good on its own? Most definitely.

It's like you said, it's not better than the original, but it's a good soundtrack on its own. Personally, I prefer Emma Watson 'speaking' the songs, as it sounds good, rather than have singing them and have it sound like shit. I see this soundtrack and the original as 2 different soundtracks, although there are similarities, they are two complete different soundtracks. A remake of a movie (and its soundtrack) does not mean that everything has to be remade in exactly the same way. I see this movie and its score as a different take on the original, seen from another angle. I personally regret the missing of the original "West Wing" score on this soundtrack, but as Belle didn't storm out in this movie as she did on the original (She does storm out but in a more reserved way), it makes sense that the original, more dramatic piece is missing from this score; as this score represent this movie, not the original. Remakes are not representations, and that's a good thing in both music and visuals. Some things are the same but it is not a blind representation of the original.
