** During the song 'Gaston', Gaston does not sing about having hair on his chest, which apparently was requested by Luke Evans, probably because it would not be appropriate for younger viewers. It is replaced with a lyrical portion that seems more acceptable on the surface but is actually more disturbing: he sings about his inhumane hunting methods.
