Love Never Dies is a great musical! It has some beautiful songs, beautiful lyrics and a fascinating history. Again, Andrew Lloyd Webber has delighted us with his art and genius. Webber Thanks!
This is a superb musical and unlike most musicals I can listen to it over and over without tiring of it. Would love an Australian cast recording but seems it will now be a DVD!! AnD yes I HAVE SEEN IT unlike some of the bitter dicators who call themselves 'phans' who are dedicated to it's downfall. Love love love it ty ALW you are a genius!
I thought it was going to be terrible. But it was amazing. I hated the idea of the story, it was actually very plausible and delicately written.
These immature idiots who haven't even seen the show and hate the story just because they have their own ideas about what "should" have happened are pathetic.
If you saw the show and hated it, fair enough. But the ones who judge it are pathetic.
Gotta admit, this song is beautiful and Ramin is a powerful and passionate singer - but it seems to be that a lot of the success (?) can be attributed to his and Sierra's voices. Why couldn't he save these beautiful compositions for a musical that works? It really, really bothers me. There's also a lot of reliance on the nostalgic success of the real show - it's somewhat of a low thing to do - to use clips that don't have anything to do with LND. One more comment: unfortunately, love does die..
People ask, "Why did ALW decide to make a necessarily needless sequal to POTO?" The answer can be found in another classic musical: Fiddler on the Roof. "If I were a rich man..."
@demeuredulac Clearly. People who are interested in the PotO are very likely to be interested in LND. It would be a bit odd if they didn't include references to PotO in promoting LND. In my opinion (and my father's, who hasn't seen PotO but came with me to see LND) it can stand alone very well.
Love PHANTOM? Don't want to a see a nonsensical sequel in which Raoul becomes a drunkard, Meg becomes a murderer, Christine becomes a slut and the Phantom becomes a composer of trashy vaudeville?
You're not alone.
Visit LoveShouldDie [dot] com to find out the awful truth behind the non-awaited sequel, denounced by the estate of PHANTOM's original author, condemned by PHANTOM fans everywhere and ridiculed by the international press.
@glasssilhouette that wasnt recycled clips from the movie, it is from the actual cast for LND. and phantom lacked the mask cas it was the first official promo ;)
@Evekinz910 Nope.It wan't part of the Phantom of the Opera.In the Phantom he never used a fan and he was dressed in red with the skull mask and red fladora with a feather and cape. In this he wasn't.
@Evekinz910 Yes, it was. Obviously the most famous adaptation of the core story was ALW's musical, but the 2004 movie is also another major adaptation of it, especially since ALW was the producer of the movie and oversaw a great deal of the production. The Really Useful Group was involved in it too. So in a sense they are justified in including that bit.
@Erynsvoice idk but it probably will. I mean da first one was so successful and no I thnk theyre gonna film it like they did the last Phantom Of The Opera, on sets with cameras and actors/actresses XD
@Erynsvoice I'd love that. I wish he would do that to the original Phantom like they did with Cats. I'd buy it in a second! Especially now that they are no longer doing the tour as of the end of this year. :(
For real?! I'm the first and only person I know to get the soundtrack. I overheard someone talking about the new show last summer, but figured it would be a few more years before I would see the end result. I looked for the latest info... and there it was! Lol. Itunes is more behind then I am, apparently. Anyway, thanks! I'll have to order from their website or drive out there. :) They need to advertise this show better and tell us where to get stuff if we don't live in London!!!
You can only buy the dvd if you get it from the website, which means you have to have it shipped from London. There is a link where you are suppose to be able to buy it in America on itunes, but it doesn't work, since its only available in the London itunes store and you can't create a new account through it if you are from out of the country. Evil...I was mad, but I settled for the original cast recording.

@gelisatracy No problem, I bought mine there for $36, cd, dvd, and booklet set. I love the music, but I have to say I was a little disappointed with the booklet, I was expecting at least some photos, not just words....

@banoffiepiee No, some video bits around 0:15 or so are from songs in the original movie. Masquerade, Think of Me, and Notes, to name a few. Trust me.
And no matter why he didn't have the mask, it's still lolable. Maybe they shouldn't have made the promo before the mask.
No offense to LND, I mean, it's an alright musical with some great songs on its own, but even this promo shows how much they owe to the original.
