Celine Dion & Peabo Bryson - Beauty...

I have the song "Beauty And The Beast" by Celine & Peabo on a TM Century GoldDisc. The actual time is 3:30, and there is no description given. Since database times are all 4:02/4:03 with no notation, I presume this must be a promo edit. Perhaps someone can provide more details, since I don't have the actual promo single.

I also have that short version on a TM disc. I don't have/know the longer version, but I compared my edit to a 4:03 version on an amateur YouTube video, which presumably uses the commercial single/album version.

The songs' structure lines up until ~3:16, where there's a cut around the final word "Beast." I believe it cuts to the word "Beast" and final few seconds at the end of the full version. If someone wants to send an mp3/wav of the full version, I'm happy to analyze the edit/mixes more carefully.

Here is my promo CD single info:

-Celine Dion And Peabo Bryson-"Beauty And The Beast" (ESK 74090)
1-Non-described version (listed 3:30; actual 3:31)

Aaron, since you started this thread, I have shot you out this above-mentioned promo version, for your further analysis.

To supplement Jim's promo CD single info, I thought I'd pass along that cassette single copies of Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson's "Beauty and the Beast" have an actual run time of 4:03. (Thanks to Edtop40 for assisting with this.)

By the way, Pat, I also wanted to bring to your attention that the song currently does not come up at all when conducting a database artist search for Peabo Bryson.

I've just been attempting this edit for the past hour, and I can't seem to get to work either. That "flourish" is not convincing on my homemade copy.
