  • hmmm...this is a great rendition. But I personally enjoyed Butlers performance. I liked him as an actor back when I first saw this. Didn't even know it was him in the movie until quite a while afterward. I don't understand what people don't like about his performance. I love when musical movies use somewhat amateur singers. Professionals just seem false to me. I love butlers edge. I just love his whole darn performance, it mesmerized me.

  • Wow. Over a million views for something I just put up on a whim years ago. Thanks to everyone who's watched the video!

  • además de guapíssimo, canta hermoso!!

  • sheeeeeeesh.....why would you want to replace gerard's voice....who everis signing is not as good...sorry...don't fix what isn't broken..... ;o(

  • @spiritblue9 LOL thanks for taking the time to watch. This was not even meant as a way to "fix something broken" it's just a fandub, like you see all over youtube. Though I do disagree, Butler's voice was quite "broken" and I wish they had cast someone better in the role.

  • Is THAT Gerad Butler??????????

  • @GoodMusicRoxMySox it's his acting...not his voice unfortunantly

  • trolls, there is A reason why you guys clicked on this video sincerly, you should stop hating

  • εκπληκτικο μου γεννα ενα εξεπεραστο συναισθημα πονου δημιουργειας...........

  • i love you abba

  • @TheManzanita25 Only on the covered side ... Duh!

  • 1. You are amazing. 2. Gerry B has nothing on you. 3. You added a more Michael Crawford sound which I like, this musical is supposed to be more operatic anyway. 4. They edited Gerry's voice, yours isn't. 5. Remember people, this is only my OPINION, therefore I will not respond to people screaming at me over who is better and how I'm wrong.

  • Please don't try to copy Butler's version. It's one of the worst I've ever heard in my life. Try any other number of phantoms - Micheal Crawford, John Owen Jones, Brad Little, Hugh Panaro... their versions are 10,000x better than Butler's could dream of being. Otherwise, not a bad effort, considering the source material.

  • @phantomraptor03 My intention was never to copy him. I believe i actually recorded this before the movie came out. I was just very untrained at the time. This recording is a good 8 years old now, I sing better than this now without even warming up. I posted another video of me goofing off one morning at work singing if you want to see it

  • I have perfect pitch too

  • This is the most beautiful version iv heard ever. Hes hot too!

  • 1:25 turn your FOTZEEEE

  • I actually thought this was really good ^_^

    Very good!!

  • Wow I didn't even know it was another person singing and im wearing headphones. (is it ironic that when i typed that you start getting really loud at 3:09 lol it hurt)

  • Gerry is so cute in the bounty hunter! I didnt know he could sing!

  • Gerard and Emmy rocked this so hard. They were so smart about the story too. i saw some interviews and behind the scenes stuff over on snapsnap and they just come across so articulate. 

  • Well, Gerry was and always be the best Phantom, but is this your voice? This sounds really good, I would give anything to sing like you, and Phantom is my dream role :)

  • you just ruined this for me. gerry is the best phantom ever! this guy sucks.

  • Perfect voice singing a sweet song the bestΣ( ̄。 ̄ノ)ノ

  • Gente, esse NÃO é o audio ORIGINAL. Reparei a diferença e verifiquei, está na descrição do vídeo.

  • he's such a good singer and he's cute

  • Whoa... I didn't see the word dubbed on the title so I clicked it thinking it was just the norm thing, and I didn't notice the difference in the voice or that it was dubbed at all until I read the reviews! Now that my friend, is beautiful!

  • I think you sang this song extremely well! Sure there's always room to grow, but you do it justice! I am honestly jealous! I wish to God I could sing that A flat! Maybe some day! Keep up the good work man!

  • Ive seen every Phantom of the Opera and I honestly feel like Gerad did a fantastic job. He fits the part very well both singing wise and acting wise. Bravo!

  • Comment removed

  • BRAVO! Where the hell were you when they were casting the movie?

  • Meh. I prefer the Michael Crawford version.

  • i never knew gerald butler sang. oooh yh i heard him from p.s i love you

  • this song makes my insides tingle

  • gerry é mil vezes mais gato e só essa dublagem que ficou meio esquisito

  • Gerry is a thousand times better.

  • @gingerisevil02 you must have hearing problems.

  • @gingerisevil02 Uhm... this guy is singing himself without digital enhancement on all long and higher notes.... Now lets see mr gerry try that > he can't sing... the computer did! :)

  • @Edwin030 But Gerry's voice is nice. And duh they would edit his voice a bit. He's never done professional singing before. but I did see a raw vid (audition tape I think) it was actually pretty good. I think it's in behind the scenes.

  • @gingerisevil02 "Gerry" sucks ass. I kept wanting to hand him a cough drop and tell him "HERE, THESE ARE YOUR FRIEND." Sing like an angel? Bah!

  • @gingerisevil02 Yeah...Ok. 0_o

  • @gingerisevil02 agreed! id totally go for him screw raoul or how every you spell his name...

  • @gingerisevil02 You are in dire need of a real Broadway show. I knew there was something wrong with this video as soon as I heard it: the Phantom has a better voice than the one I was seeing. The Movie version is a disaster from a singing standpoint.

  • This a beautiful version! I really liked it; way better then "Gerry" in my opinion. The gentlemen who sung this should really try out for broadway.

  • @LittlePryingPandora The "gentleman" who sang this was Gerard Butler he is in many other movies

  • this movie has bewitched...its like the phantom has entered my mind....

  • Gerard Butler is by far the sexiest Phantom I've seen,and he's really got a great voice,but Michael Crawford is better.

  • Im straight, but I would have sex with Gerard Butler in a heart beat.

    Is that weird that I said that?

  • Gerard Butler sings so well :D

  • And this is were weed leads me^^

  • julianconrad666 ure awesome dude!!!

  • No! Keep his voice it's perfect self always!

  • this is NOT(the actor) micheal crawford! its gerard whats-his-face ( i dont know his last name) idiots! and to micheal fans no offense but he isn't as good as this guy! just saying.

    but the voice dub is alright though.

  • @SuperTaffyTV gerard butler is fucking awful. he's not even a singer.

  • this is NOT micheal crawford! its gerard whats-his-face ( i dont know his last name) idiots! and to micheal fans no offense but he isn't as good as this guy! just saying.

    but the voice dub is alright though.

  • Awesome video.

  • NO OFFENCE, but honesty Michael Crowford normally sounds like he's singing with his nose plugged ( plz don't hate me ).

  • @RedRosesLast4eva thats not micheal crawford in the movie lol :P ( didnt know if thats what ya meant)

  • @Nomradproductionz I just mean all around. And yes I do know this isn't him.

  • @RedRosesLast4eva AMEN.... i really dont like him as phantom

  • wow just wow amazing :D

  • I was a little worried about watching this video - I haven't actually seen this movie yet, i've only listened to the soundtrack with michael crawford - cuz i kinda know him as the guy from 300. oddly enough, he pulls off the phantom really well. :D

  • @BloodCondition Wait until you hear him sing before you say that...

  • @MasterAnemos Okay, he's definitely not the best Phantom in terms of singing - but have you heard him sing "No One Would Listen"? WAY better than... well, than everything else... still, one good song is better than no good song. :)

  • At 2:50...you kind of broke the flow of "OMG THIS GUY SOUNDS AWESOME". My suggestion is to gradually work up to that high range in practice sessions, because doing things like that make you sound bad (is that possible with you) and have the possibility of damaging your vocal chords.

    As for your singing, you must be Michael Crawford's son. Nice to meet you.

  • i love this movie ever since i watched it

  • i have had the privilage of watching The Phantom of the Opera in Toronto about 12 yrs ago with Michael Crawford as Phantom and Sarah Brightman as Christine. It was one of THE best experiences of my life and no one can hold a candle to those two when it comes to singing!

  • I love this! Your almost exactly like the Phantom!

  • Comment removed

  • dude gerard butler tears that michael crawford guy apart, he has a man voice not a little boy like the other guy

  • beautiful simply beautiful

  • EPIC

  • umm i thought the phantom was suppose to be ugly

  • @TheManzanita25 He is whan he takes off the mask and the wig lol

  • @TheManzanita25 The filmmakers were 'looking to appeal to a more contemporary audience' and 'didn't want the Phantom to be so ugly that a woman wouldn't want to kiss him'.

  • @TheManzanita25 In this movie he wears a wig so if this is the first time youve seen this movie you wouldnt notice. But He does look pretty bad without his wig and mask. :s

  • @TheManzanita25 are u kidding me! Gerrad is so HOT!!!! No offense

  • @TigersUnleashed Agreed!

  • @TigersUnleashed yah, yeah he is. yesterday, i was watching it in 7th per. drama, and i just kept raving and ranting how UNFAIR it was that Christine went with Raoul instead of Eric. (phantom) i got SO hyper! i was just all like, aww... i feel so BAD for phantom! I mean, all he wanted to do was IMPRESS her, but NOOO... she had to choose the OTHER guy instead..! poor phantom... gosh, those, he likes her, but she likes him, and the he and him HATE eachother... *sigh*" i was driving my teaecher

  • @TigersUnleashed INSANE. She was just like, "okay, (place my name here) that's enough." she was so mad at me.. but ya know, i had to deffend Eric.. i mean, who wouldn't! i just wouldn't be quiet. it took me the whole class per. to calm down.. XD

  • Very good i must say!! You have a nice opera voice.

  • No. Butlers voice is much better

  • @23smell totally agree with u there. His voice is much more sexy!

  • Andrew Lloyd Webber and John Williams are the best composer ever

  • Amazing :D

  • Amazing :D

  • You sing better than Gerard Buttler. Sing another one!

  • like an angel is singing :)

  • the monster in me loves the monster in him!!!

  • This is not Gerard Butler singing! Read the video title, it says "DUBBED".

    The scene with its real audio (copy this): "Phantom of the opera Music of the Night (lyrics on the side) HQ".

    By the way, Butler rocks!

  • OMFG I MEANT "Gerard" lol my bad

  • My ears orgasmed. Jerard Butler...mmmm

  • I actually liked the movie. My name means nothin rite now just ignore.

  • The Phantom has an interesting man cave. When I take chicks to my man cave and try to seduce them with my singing, they usually threaten to call the police on me.

  • @JulianConrad666 hahahahahahahahahahahaha fantastic! :)

    

  • @JulianConrad666 Your voice must be very horrible, sound like a crow O_o

  • @JulianConrad666 Probably missing the candles....

  • @JulianConrad666 LOL that's hilarious!

  • Comment removed

  • i think the phantom of ERIK helped Gerard Butler to play this role so naturally

  • Gerard Butler sings better than anyone. Dont use the film with another voices! Its very stupid!!!

  • @23smell I was just about to say that. His singing is so much better than the ones I've heard.

  • @23smell You obviously haven't heard Michael Crawford sing Phantom then! My best advice is to get the Original Cast recording with Michael Crawford as the Phantom, Sarah Brightman as Christine (her voice gets too fluttery at times), and Steve Barton as Raoul.

  • @Dirschbag no you are wrong. i have heard and saw the original cast! and its really not for me sorry

  • A Gerald Butler le queda grande esta partitura que es para una voz lírica con mas fuerza y extensión. A mi no me acaba de convencer. Los agudos son realmente desagradables.

  • @alfonsorama1 Esa es la voz de Gerald Butler??? o_o anda yo crei que otro la interpretaba,y en la edicion la sincronizaban y aunque estoy de acuerdo contigo, si esa es la voz de el, vaya que el hombre se rifa su encanto!!!

  • Floating, falling, sweet intoxication

    Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation

    Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in

    To the power of the music that I write

    The power of the music of the night

    You alone can make my song take flight

    Help me make the music of the night

  • @zhouzhzha I know, is soooooooooooooo sexy

  • i love your voice it sounds like a bit of gerard butler and micheal crawford! u make a great phatom!

  • u know that the phantom here is gerard butler

  • this is an amazing song!

     i love to sing it

  • She´s so fool . I would have chosen the phantom !

  • @francaet I agree with you !! XDDD

    If I were she , I would chose the phantpm !

  • Sem dúvida eu ficaria com o fantasma!

  • i think that every stage phantom has cried after seeing butler's "performance" .=D he just can't sing, which is an enormous element for the character.

  • @reggaelapsi I actually think he CAN sing... But it's no way Phantom's voice... I was kinda dissapointed :/ But he's hot. Lol.

  • Egész nap elhallgatnám és nézném ezt a "Fantom "énekét, csodálatos Opera-Muzikelt. Köszönöm ezt az élményt.

  • --- Csodálatos ez a videó, Köszönöm mind azoknak akik lehetővé tették számomra, hogy meghallgathattam, hálásan köszönöm!!!! Yolanda

  • this movie is awsom

  • Comment removed

  • I feel that he's singing to me.

  • hear this in german.he sings better there.thats my opinion :)

  • its gust so good! every time my friends see me put the song on on my ipod they say i am gay! but i don't care they like music i like wen i go out to party not for every day. but this is gust amazing!

    love it!

    don't care what ppl think! this is music!

  • beautiful!!

  • you have an amazing voice!!!!

  • He is totally intoxicating....

  • @MultiStarGazer12 Not EVEN CLOSE to Michael Crawford. Michael Crawford is MUCH BETTER than this person. This person forces everything basically, while Michael Crawford does it so it actually seems easy and he is just getting in character.

  • wow your voice is very beautiful!!!

  • I wish I could to be her!

  • Very nice, I loved it, really.

    You have a beautiful voice!!

  • Louise Florence sang Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again on live Irish TV

    youtube.com/watch?v=hWl-Dfmk6f­w

  • Bravo!

  • i love him !!!! i don't care about his mask he is sooooooo sexy and sweet

  • I like these lyrics better

  • I was astonished when I heard your voice. I wasn't expecting that quality. Certainly better than Butler, who butchered the role.

  • wow!!!!

  • фуууу! Голос не Джерри!!!!

  • is the best musical i never see

  • This is amazing! The Phantom with voice like this one could stael me like Christine :)

  • I saw an interview where Crawford explained how they worked MONTHS on getting each word, each note, just right. He said, "we moved, we danced that song" which perfectly describes how the vocal and physical movements had to be one package. There have been many great singer in the part but no one has performed the piece with such style.

  • لا كلمات للوصف

    جدا جدا جدا رائع

    واو

  • gerard butler.. oh my GOD! beautiful.........

  • @55delilah too bad (for you) that he ain't singing. someone BETTER is :)

  • AMAZING!!!!!

  • i have to memorize this for my english class. it's very good. im really glad i picked this one.

  • Has anyone read and liked the book? For me, it was one of those rare instances where I thought the movie was better.

  • it's beauterfull

    

  • Phantom of the opera is eppicccxx ahhaha!

  • It's good but you need work. It does sound like you are "trying to hard". It just feels like you were struggling to keep it going. I'm sure you can hear what I am talking about when you play it back to yourself.

  • Turn your thoughts away from the light of day....sounded like turn on your FCUKs (In a more...colorful arrangement)

    o-o Jus' sayin'

  • you are vert good, but please no offence but you sound like you are trying to hard, try to just let your sound carry, and relax and just flow

  • You know, bro, Hollywood should have used your voice to dubbed over Gerard Butler's singing voice for the movie!!

    Would have increased the ratings tremendously!!

  • You have an amazing voice, Jonathan!!!!!

  • dayam. ur like phantom of the internet! dont worry thats a compliment :D

  • I really love this song, It sounds really good :P

  • Great job man! I am a really experienced musician, in all areas. Fabulous!

  • Comment removed

  • Your Great :) need alittle more practice *barely* Then you can be the phantom! ;)

  • thats... dubbed? sounds so real! O_O

  • Amazing, wonderful sound ,poetry and the delivery of song marevellous

  • Thanks again for all the comments. I was 22 or so when I made this recording to whomever it was that asked.

  • @PhantomofDB Dude you are freakin Amazing. I am only 18 but i hope that by the time i am 22 my voice will sound that mature :D when i sing

  • @PhantomofDB

    You are amazing....

    This is really good you should pursue this.....

    You have a real Talent

  • Sem dúvida eu ficaria com o fantasma!

  • how old are you Johnathan

  • I like the creepy/breathy essence you plug into the song, but it sounds like you're struggling a little on the high notes that need a lot more power and emphasis. I would love to hear some improvement if you make a second version. Remember, to properly anticipate those high notes before you sing them. Otherwise, killer voice! :D

  • you've actaully got a really nice voice

  • Johnathan you are amazing!

  • Well done.

  • who ever re-dubbed the foley overlay is sharp and tone deaf by one or two semi tones on several places, weak in other places and unable to make smooth transitions between drops and builds at high and low level, an obvious lack of stamina to hold the note for any length of time witha bad room that he sang in for its sustain holding reverb.

  • idc whos singing but whoever it is is amazing!

  • @girlsxred and the lip sinc is AMAZINGGG

  • I HATE THAT SONG

  • HATE THAT SONGGGGGGG ITS SO UGLI

  • LOVE it :) but i dun feel anything when i close my eyes.

  • let your soul take you where you long to be....on "Be" got a little sloppy,but it's a very difficult note to hit cleanly, ending could use some improvement, but overal, quite good.

  • stunning!!!! beautifull!!! wOW!!!!!!
