  • they left out the verse....Say it's just two clowns, who couldn't get their lives right...Lewis tanked that...that was the verse he was suppose to sing...Bring the curtain down...thought everyone knew this song...Lloyd-Webber just picked the guy whom he would like to bed...and probably did!

  • i dont know why but it being sang by them just sucked all the emotion out of the song! normally this song makes me cry loads! i didnt have a single tear in my eye throughout this version!

  • lewis the 1 with the blonde hair is amelia lilys brother off x factor

  • THE BLONDE ONE LOOKS LIKE A PLASTIC KEN DOLL BUT THY ARE SOOOO GOOD LOVE BLOOD BROTHERS AND MARILYN MONROE

  • Love blood brothers but its hard to disagree with the main man but I still think Rob had the better voice

  • ermmmmmmmmm... emotion??? 

  • Rob had the better voice if you ask me.

    Loved how the audience went nuts just for them stepping forward.

  • I love this show. Saw it on Broadway twice. I like these guys. Their great.

  • I cried. 

  • lol i used to go school with lewis! i well used to fancy him haha

  • aww bless lewis was so frikkin nervous. XDD

  • One of my favorite songs from Blood Brothers. These guys actually did a pretty good job of singing it

  • i know this was like last year or something but rob showed more effection in the song he should of stayed

  • rob was way better

  • duo out of tune!! hate that vibrato

  • 2nd guy is the bestt & cute

  • Rob had a much better performance. Lewis had pitch issues. He was flat on the word "movie" and off on his high note at the end.

  • Rob didn't make as many mistakes, but Louis has a better voice.

  • Lewis bradley was shortlisted to play Billy Elliot in the movie, he came pretty close. I also saw him as fiyero in wicked, he was pretty good. Ive seen lee twice and lewis once and i gotta say Lewis's performance was on par, if not better, than Lee's.

  • you could see him almost accidentally repeat the wrong verse and then switch it up

  • I Saw Lewis In Wicked, And He Was Amazing. Better Than Lee Mead.

  • The Josephs were far better than the dorothys!!!

  • Good on ya Rob, never actually got to see this show. You sounded brill though. Haven't seen ya in ages, where are you? Must get you doing some more "Ography", so funny!

  • they do suck indeed

  • killed that song

  • rob is better he should of won

  • There is nothing great about these guys at all

  • Rob's ok when he's not belting, when he does his voice has this really unattractive quality to it that I can't really describe.

  • this is kind of awful.... no feeling at all...

  • its too fast isn't it?

  • Rob's voice was weird way it changed so much. Not suited to the role of Joseph. When it changed ear the end for his last solo line, I actually couldn't understand what he was saying and I know the words to the song. =/ Love this song though,

  • This performance showed no emotion. In the musical "blood brothers" this is the scene where the mother is faced with both her son's deaths. Tragic, heartbreaking. The way they're singing it, it's more like "no Lewis, you cannot have that cupcake", it's just not the same level of emotion.

  • they're both awful! How were either of them ever in the last 10!?!

  • oooh, Lewis really messed that up didnt he!

  • :( i cant believe rob got sent offhe was far better dan dat twit lewis :@

  • OMG! Did you hear what Graham Norton said at the beginning...that is horrible!

    I would have just died if he said that to me!

    I love you Graham, but come on!!!

  • I LOVE BLOOD BROTHERS:)

    i screamed at the gun shot:/.

  • @guygp, the song is about a mother singing, after she saw her sons (twins) die by saying "Its not true" - she doesn't want to believe it happened. And the marilyn monroe stuff is just coz they play was written in that time when she was around and she was, how people say, an sex icon at that point in time :)

    (Anyone who hasn't read blood brothers... YOU SHOULD!!!)

  • I'm currently studying Blood Brothers in school and i have to say i truly love it. I really hope to go and see it some day. I think this version is very good especially as it is meant to be sung by a woman.

  • rob shulda stayed ¬¬

  • Although the performance is good, they dont feel the actual point of the song which is a shame but still :)

  • I saw Blood Brothers for the first time on Friday evening. And now I keep remembering this song and listening it as often as I can and I just can't stop thinking of Michael Jackson, I never even met the guy but the idea of it being so just makes me cry. So tell me it's just a movie with Marilyn Monroe.

  • People have heard of them

    Lewis was the understudy for Lee Mead so ha!

    And he's in touring productions everywhere

  • i loved Lewis!!!

  • Blood Brothers is amazing <3 :)

  • yeah it is. :)

  • ther bad compared 2 blood bro's

  • They sucked so bad!!

  • Who cares? No-one's heard of 'em since and neither of them won. Men shouldn't sing this, it's a female's song and that's the whole point of it, a mother crying over her dead children - Sorry if I've just ruined the plot of Blood Brothers for anyone.

  • Well, thing is, it tells you that they die RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING of the play...

  • True...But all the same, usually at the end you've forgotten. Also, I think people should go see it!

  • Andrew was at that stage quite right. Lewis did mess it up slightly but it seems he's got more potential for this kind of production.

  • their costumes are butt-ugly!

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!

  • rob was much better :(

  • Lewis messed it up

  • lewis' lipstick is horrible and this song shouldn't be sung by men.

  • i disaggrie

  • Lewis well messed up on that song :S

  • he was upset he might lose his life long dream, either way, i kinda tohught out of these too lewis

  • I just love this song sooo much i know all the words whoooo

  • Rob did actullay do well like seamus did do better than ben so heres order 12.Chris C 11.Johndeep 10.Antony 9.Ben 8.Seamus 7.Chris B 6.Lewis 5.Rob 4.Daniel 3.Craig 2.Keith 1.Lee
  • This was just.... really really bad.... :-/ Lewis is talented, but they didn't do this song well at all

  • ISAW BLOOD BROTHERS AND I CANT GET IT OUT OF MY HED! ITS AMAZING ILOVE THIS SONG (l)

  • same here

  • i like lewis(:

  • omg

  • Very out of tune.

  • oh dear, i love this song to pieces but it sounds really ...not bad but just wrong when they go down instead of up at 2:40 and the other times...but apart from that a really good version!

  • I usually like Lewis' voice but I thought Rob did much better in this song.

  • lewis just look more convincing as a joseph

  • Wow, how about they were both...eh. Not that great. Rob didn't go off as many times as Lewis though.

  • I liked it. Rob was ok. I couldn't hear anything wrong but that is probably because I can't hear that finely

  • Rob's performance was clearly superior to Lewis' in many ways. Obviously other reasons must have driven Andrew's decision here.

  • No, sorry, but Rob had a nice, but a completely inexperienced voice. And also, does Grade 7 Singing with Distinction mean 'non musically knowledged'?

  • rob the builderxx and lewis bradeyxx love them both xxxx

  • I loved Rob, i thought he was soo good and lovely...

  • We're singing this in our show as our finale.

  • omg the blonde guy is ace and he is shit

  • I definatly prefere the blonde guy's voice, and looks! The other guy has a really wide neck and a small head, and looks kind of..."ghuuuuuu..."

  • Are you joking?

  • my word... both rob and lewis sing this beautifully.

    eventhough the song is normally sung by a women, these two hav dun brilliantly wiv the song!

    Fantastic job :-)

  • @MusicFan2407 rob should of stayed tho i didnt like lewis

  • I'd pay for the video's to see these two go at it in the sack. HOT!

  • you know, sometimes just rating is okay

  • you know, jjust face the facts...I wouldn't have either of these around to just sing...come on a guy's a guy....and the blond is so not good.

  • LOL!

  • lewis was brilliant purely because he looks liek a proper masculine, male model type and he was actually the campest man on earth.

    i really loved this version.

  • blondie isn't as good a singer but i'd pay to see him cause he at least puts emotion in it

  • lol blondie XD

  • They're both great singers but I don't think they're voices are powerful enough for this song!! It's meant to give you tingly shivers through your heart!!:P

  • I am a really big fan of Blood Brothers and Joseph.. Lewis And Rob Sung The Song Really Well, Although i prefer Women singing it. I still like this version ^_^

  • These guys are singing it fantasticly you alot are only hating it cause you are used to hearing it sung by a woman.The emotion is really in so why don't you keep your selfish opinions to yourself

  • Lewis Looks Soo Lush In This Video

  • Everyone has a right to an opinion. You must have seen something in it though to come back and watch it again a week later. Trust me I've seen a lot worse versions of this song performed by 'professionals'. Also seen as the song is written for a female actress and taking into account the added pressure of 'do or die' situation it was performed very well.

  • cause they can sing?

    cause they are HOT?

    o do you just have a really small one?

  • @dieselpower666 in all fairness though, they are men singing women's parts though

  • SO AMATURE ITS UNREAL

  • learn to spell before you comment..............

  • learn to get a life before actively commenting on peoples spelling....your a maggot lol!

  • blonde guy had duff notes all over the shop!

  • they both killed it!

  • The blonde guy killed this song =|

  • was the blonde guy wearing a lipstick 2:54

  • i dont think Lewis (the blonde one) was at his best at this song but i think Andrew chose him cause he was more suited for the role of Joseph and although the other guy was really good and has so much potential, he wasnt quite so right for the role.xx

  • Sorry, but they crucified this song.

  • tuning?

  • I saw blood brothers 2 days ago and i think this is good :) funny cos niki evans from x factor '07 as mrs J :o :)

  • i saw niki yesterday she was amazing!!1

  • I REMEMBER THIS.

    i was crying while they sang it because i was sure lewis would go out;)

    but then he didnt so we're all good

    but then he went out a few weeks later and i was like hysterical;)

    i still love you lewis ahaha xoxoxox

  • i saw this is blood brothers yesterday now the song makes me cry :'(

  • the first one is far superior to the blond- come on Andrew what the hell is wrong with you? Of course you were going to let Faye Dunaway sing Sunset Blvd! Boooooooo Andrew

  • the one with the dark has the best voice.. its deeper. the blonde one has more of a pop kinda voice i think :)

  • Rob was not very good in my opinion on this song. He sounds flat and almost lifeless. This song you get from it what you put in and he didn't really put any emotion into it. At least not in my opinion. Also he mis pitches alot. Although saying this I do not like the blonde guy either...he doesnt do this song jusitce either...I think this is a song you need to do properly or not at all.

  • Dude it's so obvious the blonde dude sucks.

  • its a beautiful song and i think they both have nice voices and i hope they both are doing well for themselves

    does anyone know what they are doing now?

  • Lewis has been playing the alternate Joseph to Lee Mead and I'm not sure what Rob has been doing, I think he has been in panto. As far as I know.

  • the blonde one messed up, he was about to do the "say" bit and he changed, but he's still defoo better :)

    andd fitter ;)

  • Yeahh Rofl =]

  • lewis was crap! wtf!

  • Lewis is much more flat. Just try singing the song with them. It's not the best way to find out, but it's really obvious who's more flat

    Rob was my favourite, and I'm really sad that he had to go. He's not Joseph, but definitely one of the best in terms of overall talent. (Lee was right for the part, even though I liked Rob and Ben better).

    What irritates me though is how Andrew Lloyd Webber avoids giving a reason why he chose to send home Rob even after Lewis messing it up so badly.

  • Its completley obvious Lewis was far better. The expert agreed too!

  • do you have ears?

  • Actually I do, and Andrew's ears also agree with mine.

  • expert, ha. if he knew anthing he wouldnt be producing a phantom sequel.

  • THANKYOU!! Everyone's like, oh it'll be great!

    It so won't! Sequels are never as good as the original! And it's never going to be as good as the original Phantom! ARGH!

  • i know, so frustrating isnt it

  • Rob should have gone through,,Lewis was terrible

  • Lewis was out of tune for lots of this! Rob was so much better and didn't forget the words...... Rob deserved to stay! We Love you Rob!

  • OMG i (L) this song, when i see it in blood brothers i cry everytime :(, going for my 4th time wednesday :) the blonde one does this really well i dididnt like the other one the whole way through purely bcause he has nasty teeth lol

  • i love this song...and this play but its alright with them singing i like the woman sang it

  • the blonde 1 is flat in this....

  • I didnt like either version. Lewis got the words wrong

  • Rob was much better!!!

  • I may be the minority here, but I preferred Lewis' version.

  • me too :D

  • yehh i foght the dark haired one did betta

  • Sorry, wrong box :P

  • I'm glad Daniel was given his Avenue Q role. He has a nice voice.

  • Blood Brothers

  • they might be good in a boyband?

  • I thought they did very well, guys i guess find it hard to do their chest voice in this pitch. I was surprised at Rob with this song, he took it very gently. Although Lewis was one of my favourites from the begginning i thought his acting shone better than Rob's and he looked so desperate! I guess Andrew has a weak heart for desperation!!

  • I thought the dark haired one did better. The beginning was good. The blonde dude has too light a voice. Makes me annoyed. He shoulda been booted.

  • Totally unimpressed. Lewis gets the words wrong. In unison they are too bothered about showing off to care about how their voices sound together. They both go flat quite a bit. I've sung this song myself and have also seen it on the West End and, I'm sorry, but they were SHITE! Nowhere near good enough to be on the West End!

  • Yeah, i agree

  • the dark haired one is flat quite often, and his voice is very forced. at one point when they're supposed to be singing in unison it sounds like a dischord ... and i've listened to it a few times figuring it out... was the dark haired one... rob?

    lewis sounded just that bit too young maybe, but overall had a better sound and quality of voice.

  • 4260laurel, i soo agree. and lewis came 3rd!! how the HELL does that work?? lol but they're both fab..just...well..ones deffinatly better!! and its not lewis..

  • he savesd lewis?????? ANDREW....ARE YOU LISTENING????

  • Well it's cuz he's hott!!! lol

  • yeah he was listening, thats why he chose lewis over rob!!

  • terrific job by both of them- I also know the show.....the brunett was a bit better in tone....who won?

  • they murdered it

  • So THIS is where i know the song from!! Lewis (L) although Rob was also a favorite

  • i have seen blood brothers in the west end and i can tell you that these two sing the song very well and i would have cried if they were mickey and eddie :'(

  • I agree. I was like really upset when I watched it on broadway lol.

  • Barbara dickson rules

  • it must have been hard to sing this song in the sing of and have one to go it fits in with the show

  • ugh, Rob did so much better.

  • if hes the blonde one i aggree if not i don't

  • I still think that any of these would make a crap mickey though there too like, erm. Idk they just don't look like him (i know thats not a big part much) but i just think they just don't have it lol. I can't see them as a blood brother brought up in the rough part of liverpool.

  • This competition wasn't to find Mikey. It was to find Joseph!

  • Well done :) We know its to find joseph its just we were talking about mickey because this song is from a musical he's in.

  • Yeah i know, but they are not trying to get Mickey or Eddie they are trying to stay in the competition :) HAHA.

  • I don't really care :) I didn't like the programme much lol, and its all over Lee won .

  • lewis slipped up when he started

  • i love lewis :)

    this made me cry, it was so adorable; on lewis' part

    BLESS HIM

    x

  • rob is rubbish its like his voice has just broke

  • rob has an amazing voice i think he would play part very well!!!

  • The second one sings flat!!!!!!

  • How the hell lewis got to the final 3 is beyond me. Webber only liked him cuz of his 'Joseph' looks! Tsk.

  • Rob would make a crap mickey. Tbh 15 year olds would make the best mcikey, they are in the middle if you get me of their life. They can both act the 7 year old easier then adults and they can act growing up as well, but say 30 year olds playing mickey like their is now, they find it harder physically and emotionally to act like 7 year olds growing up because their already grown up and past their age. It's true.

  • Fair point, but I have to disagree, I like having adults play it all the way through, and the west end agrees with me lol.

  • Hehe i get you now, i just went to see it in the westend and i saw stephen playing mickey he's the best by far :) And he's an aldut, i still think that in like a play that didn't have that high standard actors they should try a 15 year old but the westend was frigging briiiiillliiiaannntt :) lol, i was in the stalls and right at the end when they both get shot you could see the police men come either side, i knew what was gonna happen but when the guns went off i nearly screamed lol.

  • snap. he was amazing.

  • lewis was flat when he says movie VERY flat. x

  • when lewis goes to sing though its its here before me he starts to say something else at 1.50

  • I hated Rob.
