A Guy Like You is a funny convincing song that is feature in The Hunchback of Notre Dame (film).
This song is sung by Laverne (the late Mary Wickes), Hugo (Jason Alexander) & Victor (Charles Kimbrough). The song means that the three Gargoyles assume that Esmeralda is in love with Quasimodo, the same way that he loves her. Placing a comedic song after a dark, intense scene such as the song "Hell Fire" is a common technique allowing the audience to release tension in an appropriate time, thus allowing the climax to be appropriately dramatic.
