Be Our Guest first appeared as a musical number in Disney's Beauty and the Beast, performed by Lumiere as he welcomes Belle to the enchanted castle. The song became one of the film's most recognisable tunes, and Disney later used its melody for the horn on the Disney Wish cruise ship, where ships traditionally sound musical horns when departing or arriving. Short recordings of that horn version spread online among cruise fans and Disney collectors, who reuse the few-second melody as a quick, joyful signal of a Disney holiday beginning.
