Yeah, Sarah has difficulty to reach the notes, but finally she got them, and most important, she got the final note, a disaster would be if she didn´t reach any note, but at the end, without any vocal preparation, with the hum, nervious and with cold of the night she did it well.
Could someone please be kind enough to tell the names of the Phantoms from left to right (looking at the screen) and which year they were first shown portraying the Phantom? (Don't tell me the one for the 25th anniversary....we all know that having just watched it)
@xSkye629x Anthony Warlow (the bald one) played Phantom in the Aussie production in 1990 and again in 2006. John Owen-Jones was in the 2005 London production (not sure where). Colm Wilkinson in the 1989 Canadian version (he moved there after he was offered the role; he has also played Jean Valjean in Lay Miz on Broadway and West End.) And Peter Jöback (the tall hot one :D) will be playing in the 2012 London production.
Should have been such an amazing performance with the brilliant talents taking part, but didn't seem to particularly stand out to me. Could have been so much better.
Sarah Brightman is simply the best Christine, her awesome range in this song demonstrates why, also that she was married to ALW makes her the angel of music.
To be perfectly fair to Mr. Joback, he is singing in a language that is foreign to him, and it sometimes happens that the quality of a singer's voice loses something in translation. I will give you he doesn't exactly blend well or hold up very well against Warlow, Jones, Karimloo or Wilkinson, but let's cut the guy a break. K, thanks.
I saw Colm in Toronto and was blown away - I saw it 5 more times but Colm topped them all - he made Michael Crawford sound like a girl! This was a fantastic finale!
I got to see a Phantom of the Opera not only once but twice! Once when I was in 8th grade and it was Kansas City, Missouri and another time in 2009 on a college trip to London and I saw it on its original stage, and it rock the both time i saw it! Oh I wish I got to go and see this one!
okay all the colm bashers who think he cant sing forget he is almost 70, he was in his 40s when he started in phantom to begin with and anyone who thinks he isn't good at "music of the night" listen to this from back when he just finished his 5 year run as the phantom /watch?v=txBPa8pVHII , like michael crawford colm isn't trained for this role anymore but is a more active singer so could pull it off, also this is just a get together thing of performers who love phantom, seriously stop bashing
@DrinkOmally I happen to think that he's phenomenal :-) True, peeps are forgetting that the guy is 67. Most people at that age are retired, not singing their lungs out like he is. So kudos to Colm.
The other two POTs (JOJ & AW) are wonderful too. The only one I don't really like is the youngest guy singing: Peter Joback. He's not as good imo.
@PapilioPudibundus you cant really compare him to AW as he is a trained opera singer and john owen jones is over 25 years younger and at the time was playing the phantom in london so he would have been very trained at the role but i was just posting that as there were loads of people going on about how his voice doesnt compare to the others and that he cant sing i was just showing them they are wrong
@DrinkOmally I wasn't comparing him to JOJ & AW at all o_O. As I've pointed out in my previous reply, I have tremendous respect for CW: he's doing a great job & I love his voice. I'm impressed that he can do that in spite of his age.
That being said, I also enjoyed AW, JOJ & RK's performances...Just because I liked them too, doesn't mean that I was dissing CW or even comparing him to them. They all are immensely talented imo.
@PapilioPudibundus yeah i know you weren't i was refering to people comparing them in general i didn't mean you were dissing him, i suppose it looked like that but i was agreeing with what you said
@bigoldinosaur Well, Gerard Butler never played the Phantom on Broadway. He was only in the film. If they were Phantoms from all different shows and movies, he might have been there, and maybe even Ramin Karimloo from the sequel of the show, Love Never Dies, might have showed up (which would have been just awesome)
Honestly, I don't like Sarah Brightman's voice and never have. She can hit very high notes and has an incredible vibrato. But, the tone of her voice is just odd-sounding to me, especially when she sings low. It's not beautiful at all, and makes her sound like a toad. No offense to any Brightman fans, this is just my opinion.
@ZombieTorii Okay, you're entitled to your opinion, but for me, SB will always be the ultimate Christine, just like MC will always be the ultimate phantom. Also, she's doing pretty well (though understandably not as good as when she was younger), considering she's 51 years old. She's no longer a spring chicken.
@ZombieTorii I dont like her much either.. just one and other song... but when I bought the Phantom Of The Opera movie (Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum) I went to special features and heard Sarahs version.. I must say I didn´t like at all... she doesn´t feel like Christine.. any way, I see this and it´s like something really important is missing.. I know that they are the original and whatever but they are just people singing it.. not Christine and the Phantom
@ZombieTorii You do kind of have a point. But still, you've got to give her some credit. Not everyone can do that. If you can I would like to see you try.>:)
@ZombieTorii Your ignorant comments,about Sarah Brightman's abilities ARE offensive to all of Sarah's fans, Sarah, and ALW who introduced her as, "My Angel of Music." ALW also said, "Without these two (Sarah & Michael), we would not be here." I don't know what greater endorsements she could have for her singing abilities than comments like these from the genius who wrote the Phantom specifically for her voice. It is a privilege to hear her sing. I am dying to hear her live.
John Owen Jones and Anthony Warlow are amazing! But why the hell is that Colm guy there? Even Joback kinda screws his face when that guy starts singing as if 'wtf?'..He can play the silent page boy!
@ThnkHppyThghts So because he was the first Phantom in the Sydmonton workshop in 1985 but with the succes of Miz it was not possible to play The Phantom. His performance of the role is totally different and complex manage to hate him, to love him, to feel sorry .Michael Crawford is too romantic, The Phantom is quite safe romantic - it is necessary to read the book - But I respect Mickael Crawford it's a wonderful perfoprmer I just prefer the vision of the role by Colm Wilkinson.
@Nadou3006 Again, like I said, his voice doesn't quite fit with this performance. Maybe on his own it wouldn't be too bad, but when you hear the deeper, and I guess more traditional voices of JOJ and Anthony Warlow, Colm stands out like a sore thumb. But hey, everyone has different opinions so meh.
@jazzy6307 it was an agreement between him and someone else/ company that he was not allowed to sing due to the fact that he was singing in the wizard of oz
@RAVEmovies eh, read the comment carefully, he said i bet none of you could sing that high note WHEN YOU ARE 50... tell us if you could still hit that note in 34 years' time.
I am residing overseas in the Orient and last week I happened to visit the cinema. I saw they were showing "The Phantom of the Opera" and I thought "M'kay, I'll watch this."
I came away astounded. This part of the film really made the experience.
First off, to have 5 phantoms on the stage at once was epic. Then to bring out Sarah Brightman who originated the role of Christine, put the icing on the cake. Sarah hasn't aged a bit either, and her voice is still magnificent.
I want all 6 Phantoms gift-wrapped in Phantom costumes and edible undergarments for Christmas this year. If this is too much trouble, I will happily settle for 2 or 3 in their pajamas.
I had the incredible pleasure of seeing Colm Wilkinson perform the Phantom back in 1991 with Rebecca Caine, started my love of everything broadway/musical, to me, there is NO OTHER Phantom then Colm Wilksinson :D
Can you imagine how amazing this was for him? I mean, this is HIS show as much as it is Webber's, and this was as much a tribute to him as it was to Webber. Without him, this show would be no where.
In case you're wondering, Michael Crawford didn't sing because he had literally just come from a performance of the Wizard of Oz (Andrew Lloyd Webber's new show) in which he is featured as the Wizard himself, and he couldn't pull it off with his voice. Notice he does get the last note of Music of the Night though :D I love you, Michael
I love the chemistry between Colm + JOJ. 9:39 Colm nods and smiles, muchos respect. There is a clip of I think it's 4 Jean Valjeans singing at the Royal Variety show. JOJ gives Colm a similar smile and nod when Colm starts singing Bring Him Home. Two of the greatest musical performers...nee singers of our time. :)
Hello everyone I would like to hear this version, is a Guatemalan girl of 19 years, see and think the video find him as ____Fabiola The Phantom of the Opera.m2t ______
First off, THANK YOU Cameron Mackintosh and Andrew Lloyd Webber for making this possible. I wish we could have this sort of commemorative for "Evita" which I also adore.
Second, Michael Crawford is freakin' 70 years old! He might not want to attempt to sing as he did 25 years ago. Cut him some slack Jack.
Third, I agree, Ms Brightman is oddly off her game here. She does the "ah-ah-iah-ah" part flawlessly, but then if we're cutting Crawford slack after 25 years, maybe we need to do likewise.
i will never tire of this. listen to this soundtrack recording every day. gives me goosebumps every time "SING FOR ME MY ANGEL OF MUSIC!". I swear ALW should of been my dad
That was persous and when phantom truned to Michale Crawford and said you alone can make our song take flight I wish he could have sang too bad he was in the wiz
i really want to hear the original Christine and Phantom sing again(which would be so meaningful), too bad they had both of them there but didn't sing together...

Michael is crying!! :')
Can you imagine how amazing this was for him? I mean, this is HIS show as much as it is Webber's, and this was as much a tribute to him as it was to Webber. Without him, this show would be no where.

@garthphantomlife I agree. I believe the show would not be as big as it is today were it not for him.

In case you're wondering, Michael Crawford didn't sing because he had literally just come from a performance of the Wizard of Oz (Andrew Lloyd Webber's new show) in which he is featured as the Wizard himself, and he couldn't pull it off with his voice. Notice he does get the last note of Music of the Night though :D I love you, Michael

I love the chemistry between Colm + JOJ. 9:39 Colm nods and smiles, muchos respect. There is a clip of I think it's 4 Jean Valjeans singing at the Royal Variety show. JOJ gives Colm a similar smile and nod when Colm starts singing Bring Him Home. Two of the greatest musical performers...nee singers of our time. :)

Stop dissing on Sarah Brightman! I'm pretty sure none of you could sing that high note when your 50

@renz686 You're right. It's so impressive for a 50 year old trained singer to be able to do this. She is terrible and you are in denial.

Poor Sarah, she struggled through the song. Wish she had her voice crystal clear like the old days

First off, THANK YOU Cameron Mackintosh and Andrew Lloyd Webber for making this possible. I wish we could have this sort of commemorative for "Evita" which I also adore.
Second, Michael Crawford is freakin' 70 years old! He might not want to attempt to sing as he did 25 years ago. Cut him some slack Jack.
Third, I agree, Ms Brightman is oddly off her game here. She does the "ah-ah-iah-ah" part flawlessly, but then if we're cutting Crawford slack after 25 years, maybe we need to do likewise.

Probably a big hint that Michael Crawford wasn't going to sing, is that he wasn't wearing the Phantom's tuxedo.
