What song from Beauty and the Beast is being performed in this video?
Broadway Festival 2006 Video
I believe that's "A Change In Me" the song added for Toni Braxton. Ashley Brown sounds awesome!

And Ashley Brown (the person who's singing it now) sang it previously on CD for the "On The Record" show.

is this song replaced by "home" in the broadway show?

No, "Home" is still there. "A Change In Me" is in the second act, after "If I Can't Love Her" and before "The Mob Song".
ya, just an addition not a replacement. :)
Wait, I didn't know they added a new song. Was this only for Toni Braxton or is it in Beauty for good? When was it added and what merited such an addition?
It was added for Toni and yes, it's still in the show. Why they put it in, I'm not sure. Someone else will have to answer that one!
But, I like the song a lot. Ashley Brown's recording of it on "On the Record" is well done.
Well, they put it in for Toni Braxton because I believe they wanted Belle to have more of a showstopper in the second act, and since Toni is a "name" they probably wanted her to stand out more in the show this way...didn't they say it was almost like a pop song? Audience reaction probably turned out good, so they kept it with the show.
when toni did the song it also gave her an opportunity to show off her blues style, however since her leaving i believe it fits the show better as it's now sung in the style of the rest of the show
susan egan did record it on her second cd - "so far..."
hear susan egan's version here
I hate that damn song. Needs to be cut once and for all.

Are the preformers from this- expect for Wicked and B and B, and Chicago- understudies? Because DRS wasnt Jonathan or Norbert.
