Both versions of "Beauty and the Beast '' were very successful, garnering both a Golden Globe and Academy Award for Best Original Song, as well as Grammy Awards for Best Song Written for Visual Media and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. The single was also nominated for the Grammy Award for Record of the Year and the Grammy Award for Song of the Year. Lansbury 's performance has been universally lauded by both film and music critics. While the Dion - Bryson version received mixed reviews from critics who felt that it was inferior to Lansbury 's original, the single became a commercial success, peaking at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100 and becoming the better - known of the two renditions. In addition to returning Disney songs to the pop charts after a thirty - year absence, the success of "Beauty and the Beast '' also launched Dion 's career and established her as a bankable recording artist. After "Beauty and the Beast '' became the first Disney song to undergo a complete pop transformation, several contemporary artists were inspired to release their own radio - friendly renditions of Disney songs throughout the decade. Considered to be among Disney 's best and most popular songs, "Beauty and the Beast '' has since been covered by numerous artists. In 2004, the American Film Institute officially recognized "Beauty and the Beast '' as one of the greatest songs in film history, ranking it 62nd.
