Oh my gosh I can't believe I just found this! Combine my favorite singer with my favorite opera of all time....and you get one of the most beautiful songs in the world. :) <3
i love the POTO version AND Archie's version. :) They are so different and are both gorgeous in their own way. I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but I love it when I don't think i could ever like another version of a song other than the original and then Boom! Someone like David comes along surprising me with a beautiful, new version of, "Think of me.". Now I have 2 versions that I love. Makes me :)
I like his better because it's coming from a guy--it's coming from the heart. When a girl like Christine sings it--it's not as meaningful because 'think of me' is probably said by every girl at least once in her lifetime but you rarely hear a guy say it to a girl. :P
Many people try to live their lives in the old styles of music..give it a cut You guys..and try to be captivated by modern day music...let's be open to all new possibilities that's coming and will be comin our way...most importantly, try to respect someone else's piece...it's the ART....ARTCHULETA!!!..
Isn't the whole point of music just to appreciate it and love it? If you don't like it, don't listen to it. No matter what you post on here, regardless of how much you know about musical theater and opera and stuff it's not gonna stop those of us who actually like both versions, or just this one for that matter, from listening to it.
oh god, people calm the fuck down. so this is supposed to be sung with an opera style voice like it was done originally.. yes, that's great, but this is a cover, its the artist spin on it, and it sounds good both ways. give this guy some credit, his voice is actually beautiful, so shut the fuck up, or just go away.
agh agh AGH..im sorry.. this dude is legit talented..but NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! this song is not meant to be "pop-ized". this song is a soprano song where opera is sung.. no JUST no! agh.. i dont know what to say :3 I am very open minded..but im a 200% phantom of the opera fan..this is just................. idfk -____________-
I don't have a problem with him, he's good, it's just that I can't stop thinking about Disney when I hear him sing. And I don't like Disney. But I love this song! So many conflicting emotions right now...
what ever happened to david..man i remember being in love wit him when i first heard him on American Idol (auditions) i new he was going to win from day one!
His voice is amazing, he did such a great job taking this song and making it his own. And I agreee with @blabing55, "Christine wasn't singing this song to Raoul at all! It was just an aria she sung in the opera that was being performed that night, because the star soprano quit. So, she was singing it to an audience. lol. Better get your facts straight".
@blabling55 Hey, This song in the musical is part of an aria that Christine Daae sings cos Carlotta quit...she doesnt sing this song to anybody...Im a BIG phantom of the Opera fan...My opinion is that as is a great song is impossible to be a bad cover, Which one I prefer? OBVIOUSLY, Sarah first, then the others soprano, and last this version, but it´s still good...cos it´s a great song
Notwithstanding the comments in Spanish below, this boy did a great job on a beautiful song. Of course his performance doesn't measure up to the original. But a great song can be sung many and not detract from the original. He added some nice elements to the song.
esta cancion es de andrew loyyd weber y fue hecha para sarah brightman y no para este chaval que no save cantar, para empezar cambio el final de la cancion le quito las notas altas porque no puede hacer nada como lo hace el verdadero angel de la musica
@ISAMARSASI I do not think he can make those high notes, because the more I can give is contralto notes and if lucky would be much some of mezosoprano (and would be too) Maybe if you did a great job with the kid because it was not very good maybe if it's good but not enough to make art that gives a person trained in singing.
@167hades60830 This was transposed an octave down and played in another key to better suit the timbre and range of his voice, which complements the song well. I don't know how who the song was written for originally detracts from the quality of the performance. If you expected him to sing a Bb5, then you're kind of insane, and you might as well just listen to Brightman's version.
Ok... At first I thought it was really weird to hear a guy singing this song, but I have to admit... Very charming! =) Dude has an awesome voice and i hope he keeps singing!!!
david just got dropped from his label (jive) :( Two things can happen. Either he goes successful with another label or he loses his career when he doesn't get to have a label
i prefer the original from the opera, but, he really does a good job doing this, LOL is like a Disney's movies songs, but its really good ;), like it!
"Meant to be sung in operatic style/by a woman" my ass. If you can sing, then you can sing anything, and David Archuleta proves it by providing his own take on his song while showcasing his excellent vocal ability.
@blabling55 What?? Christine wasn't singing this song to Raoul at all! It was just an aria she sung in the opera that was being performed that night, because the star soprano quit. So, she was singing it to an audience. lol. Better get your facts straight.
I really like his way of singing this.............. don't get me wrong, I love the opera, but he surprized me in how he pulled it off.................... wait until he gets older, his voice will change and he'll sound like a country singer with this song. :) jojo..4790@gmail.com
first of all, why does it matter if it's gay or not gay?
as far as i know David is not gay, but i shouldn't have anything to do with his singing, even if he was.... just my opinion..
and then for the record, Christine does not even know Raoul is present at the time when she's singing this song. She is singing in front of an audience in the fictional "Hannibal" opera.
@ACallToShame well i wudnt say butchered. hes an amazing singer,so of course he wants to take an amazing song that he loves and make it even more beautiful(: yhu may not think so,but alot of others do(:
Wow. Normally, I hate remixes, but this is amazing. His voice is beautiful. Of course its not gonna be like the Phantom of the Opera version. Its his take on the song. But that doesnt make it any less good.
Im a fan of David. His face is irrestible and his voice is usually the last thing I hear b4 I fall asleep, but REALLY? Christine Daae's Think of Me????"? Thats just not right. This song is written for a WOMAN to sing
You know what, In all honesty, I think that he epitomizes what youre supposed to do on Idol. And that is, go way out on a limb and be unique. He did an awesome job for something he knew he couldnt ordinarily do. Its cool. WTG!
i love that movie i know like every line this is my favorite song sand christina issss sooooo pretty its such a sad story!!! david did so well for this song
He's good, but this song was a) written for a soprano woman with an operatic style voice. b) written for Sarah Brightman and c) it is certainly not a pop song.
@CaraKawaii a) he has a tenor voice, which is the same as a soprano, for a man. b) I don't see your point, then the movie wasn't supposed to happen nor the world-cruising musical... It's like as if I couldn't play any of the Chopin operas simply cause they are written for his lovers, nonsense. c) this IS a popsong. As classical music requires a completely different style of composition which you would know about if you had studied it. Given you didn't you made 3 useless points.
@CaraKawaii It seems that everyone that doesn't care for this song seems to make the comparison between him and Brightman. I mean, I have to wonder: if people had never heard the orginial, would they have a problem with this one? Nobody seems to just listen to the song for itself. I don't understand how people can say "his voice isn't for this song." How? Because you've heard the original? I don't see that it makes a difference. Ah, screw it.
Everyone PLEASE VOTE for DAVID ARCHULETA in this years 2010 TEEN CHOICE AWARDS!! He is nominated for American Idol ALum & Fanatic Fans! PLEASE VOTE EVERYDAY & TELL OTHERS TOO! Let's do it for david! <3
Yeah Simon was in a crotchety mood..Why I wonder. Anyway man can he sing. I loved all of his songs but this was one of my favorites. Even when I watch the other songs this one just grabbed me. love it...love you David
Love this version! He has the most beautiful voice I've ever heard and I've heard a lot. Congratulations, David on an amazingly successful career since American Idol. You are destined for success. Love you forever!
@martinbloo David has a lovely voice, but that's all it is. He can't write his own songs and his voice and his stage presence are nothing new - he's good but there are hundreds like him. He's Gareth Gates all over again. He has nothing special, nothing unique and that's why his career is pretty much already over.
@CrownedWithLaurels Hate to tell you, but he's already co-written songs which have been recorded. He's a true musical talent and his stage presence at his concerts is awesome. TV presence is not so good, but he's a great entertainer live in concert!
@MicahLuvFun26 he didnt mess it up. lots of artests do remakes in a way to make it thereown......im currently studing music myself so i know why he did what he did.
@MicahLuvFun26 You people that say he "messed up" the song---use your head. If someone tears down the Chinese restaurant where you first kissed your girlfriend, then I understand that. It's gone and you can never go back to that place. That sucks---I get it. But there is no rule saying "David covered this song, so all you people who liked the original are no longer allowed to listen to it. You have to listen to THIS one from now on."
This is actually pretty good. I don't normally like his voice, but with this being my favorite song, I really do like it. He didn't do the extreme notes, but it was a good remix of the Broadway version.
his voice isn't bad, but I think this song should be sung by a woman. It just doesn't seem right to hear a guy singing it....Like I said I don't think it's awful but yeah
I haven't listened to him in a while, and I seriously forgot how gorgeous his voice is until I listened to this. One of my favorite idol performance :)
I like his sound, but I still feel that nothing compares to the original version. Sarah Brightman was born to see this song! And the music in the movie version is the best in my opinion.
I SAW THE PHANTOM 10000 TIMES, I SAW HIS VERSION IN A I...I still can´t believe what Simon said...That guy has no idea of music...this is a perfect version Archuleta´s way to sing of a gorgeous song...
OF COURSE, STUPID, SIMON, THIS SONG WAS MADE FOR SARAH BRIGHTMAN, And what this kid did is AMAZING
Oh my gosh I can't believe I just found this! Combine my favorite singer with my favorite opera of all time....and you get one of the most beautiful songs in the world. :) <3

But there is no rule saying "David covered this song, so all you people who liked the original are no longer allowed to listen to it. You have to listen to THIS one from now on."

This is actually pretty good. I don't normally like his voice, but with this being my favorite song, I really do like it. He didn't do the extreme notes, but it was a good remix of the Broadway version.

It's an adequate interpretation, but the original surpass this by far. I guess from a stylistically it wasn't a great choice.

his voice isn't bad, but I think this song should be sung by a woman. It just doesn't seem right to hear a guy singing it....Like I said I don't think it's awful but yeah

I like his sound, but I still feel that nothing compares to the original version. Sarah Brightman was born to see this song! And the music in the movie version is the best in my opinion.
