that chandelier added at the last part was like the crash of the chandelier on the stage show and i liked it, well done, but that chandelier was supposed to crash after the phantom says go right ^_^
normal i don't like movie remakes/adaptations but the cast really changed my mind. i was watching a bunch of interviews on snapsnap and everyone was just enthusiastic.
Barton's and Brightman's voices are good, And Crawford's voice doesn't fit to Butler's Phantom.Where is insult, jealousy in the Phantom's voice? It seems like vainglorious Narcissus sings. I think Butler, Rossum and Wilson sang more naturally, more pathetically.
Steven Barton!!!!! Whatta voice! Even though he's no longer among us, his amazing repertoire and recordings are a gift to the world of musicaltheatre and such.
I personally think gerrad butler brought a new type of phantom to the table, his vocals have more passion behind them and a bit of grit too! Spaaaaaaaartaaaa!
But where is the resentment and jealousy in his voice? Where emotions? The Voice of Jerry conveys these feelings. And by the way, is he in the end fell from the roof? lol
@MoNyOh i agree. as much as i liked the movie i just couldn't like her. not just her singing but she just seems to keep toying with the phantom's emotions. this wasn't the script but the way she always had that shit eating grin when the phantom was on screen. Sarah Brightman will always be Christine. i would have loved to see her in the movie, she would be pushing 50 when it was filmed but ..... did you see her in REPO!? she looked so young. i would have loved to see michael crawford as phantom.
I like Gerard Butler, he's more dramatic. and Emmy Rossum makes a more subtle change in pitch from the deeps of Eric to the highs of Christine. I'm sorry but i feel they play the parts the best, no offence to Michal Crawford though, he's not bad he's just not the best.
lol i thought something was up. initially i thought when patrick wilson was singing, there was just some base adjustment or something but then i heard sarah brightman. O.O
Not to affened anyone but I like the newer cast it may be because that is the one I heard first but I don't know the video was good though in quality I liked it
they make such a cute couple people need to get over it. I mean you dont have to watch it if you dont want to, if you dont like phantom of the opera then why in the first place did u watch this???????? i mean they are in love the joy of love
they make such a cute couple people need to get over it. I mean you dont have to watch it if you dont want to, if you dont like phantom of the opera then why in the first place did u watch this???????? i mean they are in love the joy of love
I think I've said this many times before...but I love you for resynching the whole movie. I would always try to either listen to my iPod while watching the movie (with the Original London Cast), or try to think of Michael and Sarah in my head, but that didn't work. T_T
After listening to the original soundtrack since I was 5, it's hard to see a movie completely different sounding. But the musical I saw was phenomenal. :]
This latest movie version is a major disappointment. Raoul and the Phantom sounded horrible. Especially Raoul, as a suitor his voice doesnt sound like one. The Phantom, he better off stay in hiding, because he cant be taken seriously. HA!
This was written as a stage play and film/movie can never replace it.
@nekidspaceman The actors are Emmy Roseum and PAtrick Wilson but the singers are Sarah Brightman and Steve Barton, they were the original cast when this FIRST STARTED ON STAGE. Webber acutally wrote this special for Sarah and he wasn't going to do it without her.
Just love this version. It was nice to hear other voices, they way this is edited is wonderful. The phantom says "Christine, Christine, when Gerald Butler doesn't so this must be a recording from a different performance. I LOVED how the ending was edited in. It was nicely done. I wish I could have edited this! WOW
I love Steve over Patrick, but I'm going to have to say Michael and Gerard are equal in my book. Even though Gerard's voice can be darker that Mr. Crawford's.
Sarah and Emmy are both very different, Sarah's voice being more confident and strong, Emmy's being soft, sweet, and child-like..? The two are both really good.
This excellent! You timing is spot on and the lip movements are all synchronised beautifully! Yes I like Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman's voices.
I agree with you, I SO MUCH prefer that chipmunk...what's her name? Emmy Possum? Yeah, her. She hits the notes with SO MUCH more skill, power and ease!
Oh, yes, that Sarah who, she sings through her nose! It's absolutely not her natural tone, at all, as evident in all her other works.
And not to mention the cadenza; Emmy did a MUCH MORE higher, elaborate and skilled cadenza! Sarah did that pathetic one which barely had any agility, I bet she's studio-edited. The live Broadway shows are a terrible lie.
And you know at the ending part of "The Phantom of the Opera"? That bombardment of high notes? Ugh, Sarah's version with vibrato was horrible. Emmy's vibrato-less and full-of-reverb version was so awesome. Even the high note was SO MUCH more impressive, damnit!
Ha, I'm guessing that's sarcasm. But I enjoy Emmy's voice. And other people enjoy Sarah. So it doesn't really matter. What would music be if everyone were the same?
I would like to add to this discussion that the reason I felt the need to edit all these was that the new version didn't stick to the tune adequately, thereby ruining the melody and my enjoyment. When Emmy spits the word 'hate!' in the catacomb, that word is better than Sarah's whole performance. However, Emmy is NOT Christine Daae. Sarah is, and NO ONE is going to be better than Michael Crawford, ever.
Personally, I really like it (not sarcastic, I swear) when Emmy says "he kills without a thought"...that was just awesome. Apart from that though... :/
That bit, along with the three part harmonies in the lair at the end, is my favourite part. Although Emmy emotes that bit well, it's sung with a very relaxed timing, as is most of the movie. Seeing as they are not filming the live performance the actors need to lipsync to prerecorded performances which don't adhere to the timing of the original, seems to have been a poor choice as the breathing is out of place and jarring from the emotion.
omg the OLC version of this song is the best! although the movie version was quite good, i thought PW's voice was a tad too high for the character, he sounds 5 years younger than intended IMHO
and MC's AIAOY (reprise) is 100 *million* times better than GB's! for one thing he holds the final "you" for more than twice the time GB does! c'mon, even *i* can hold it for longer than him (GB, i have tried time and time again to match MC's hold time but i end up taking a leaf out of carlotta's book and "croaking" at about 3 secs b4 MC's hold ends!) grrr... :-@
Steve Barton! Oh, I didn't know you'd done this one. Beautiful. Although I'm going to be nasty for a minute and say that PW's face still bugs me. I've come to the conclusion it's the haircut. I think he's pretty hot with short hair.
But not as good-looking as Steve Barton was. Again, wonderful job with the editing. I'm very impressed.
hmmm, i uploaded the entire movie just yesterday, please watch them,rate them,they're in high quality,is this same movie by Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum,hope you like it guys,and thanks...
Wow, really fantastic job with the lyp syncing, it's pretty perfect! I was watching for a while and I hadn't read the comments but I was thinking, Hey, they sound different. Guess that's why. Great job!
This video is really very well done. The audio is synched perfectly to the video. Well done! I prefer the original Broadway cast because their performances possess a timeless quality; during the time period the musical is set in, classical music was the "pop" music of the day. The movie version is like an audio anachronism. And, by the way, why does everyone think Christine is supposed to be 16? In the novel she was in her early 20s, so she would have a more mature voice like Sarah Brightman's.
I think you are confusing "perfect" with "mature-sounding". The Phantom is supposed to be a good 10-15 years older than Christine and Raoul, so the voices should sound like it (i.e. Raoul should have a slightly higher voice than the Phantom) although IMHO they took that a *bit* too far with the difference between PW and GB, SB and MC sound much more appropriate in comparison
I know alot about the phantom of the opera.. Pesonally i think that the movie portion is very well done... but it sounds weird to me.. but thats my personal opinnion.
I agree!...Michael rules and is"MUCH" better then Butler and Michaels voice is much stronger 'AliLovesSomeone". Try actually listening to Michaels different videos and CDs or go see him live before you judge! You've got a right to your opinion but if you are not going to actually listen to Michael first or you just don't like him why did you watch this video!!!
on hear? Because Steve is so much better than Patrick, and Michael is So much better that Gerard. Kind of difficult to separate them when they sing in different keys. Like someone other than Ruthie Henshall singing 'I dreamed a dream'. No real point. Not even close.
I agree with Colinmcphan, Mr. Crawford is AMAZING! But I love/worship (lol) Mr. Butler and Mr. Crawford the same. They're both amazing actors and great singers. Ms. Brightman and Ms Rossum are less greater
Please never mix Michael and Butlers voices together. It would ruin MCs beautiful emotion and heartbreaking sound. I've seen the film and Michael live on stage and it was Mikes outstanding acting and singing that made me fall in love with Phantom. I wanted to run off with his Erik. Thanks again for a great job on the video. Your AWESOME!
Michaels voice is waaay better then Butlers. Michael sings with more power, anger and emotion. I like how MC starts out devastated and sounding really hurt after seeing Christine and Raoul together. If you were the Phantom that would hurt you! Then the Phantom explodes with anger and emotion! I actually enjoy Sarah and Emma and I heard a video of Michael and Emmy together that was great. I also like Steves and Patricks singing equally well. Great job on the video and Michael ROCKS!!!
now before i got into Phantom was during high school i watched a pay per view concert of sarah, so yeah i bought the gerard butler cd version and i'm like what is this, then i bought OLC it was way better
I thought that was Emmy Rossum... I could be wrong, but I'm almost positive. Sarah Brightman is in the actual Broadway Version, atleast, that's what I heard.
i saw this musical on broadway before i saw the movie, but personally, this version gets to me more

Wow, really fantastic job with the lyp syncing, it's pretty perfect! I was watching for a while and I hadn't read the comments but I was thinking, Hey, they sound different. Guess that's why. Great job!

I can't believe she's going to play Bulma...
Son Goku: Why have you brought me here?
Bulma: We can't go back there... If he has to kill a thousand men, the Prince of the Saiyans will kill, and kill again!
Goku: There is no Prince of the Saiyans!
>___>
Vegeta: Bulma, love me, that's all I ask of you!

This video is really very well done. The audio is synched perfectly to the video. Well done! I prefer the original Broadway cast because their performances possess a timeless quality; during the time period the musical is set in, classical music was the "pop" music of the day. The movie version is like an audio anachronism. And, by the way, why does everyone think Christine is supposed to be 16? In the novel she was in her early 20s, so she would have a more mature voice like Sarah Brightman's.

Raoul isn't supposed to be a perfect singer, especially when compared to the Phantom

I think you are confusing "perfect" with "mature-sounding". The Phantom is supposed to be a good 10-15 years older than Christine and Raoul, so the voices should sound like it (i.e. Raoul should have a slightly higher voice than the Phantom) although IMHO they took that a *bit* too far with the difference between PW and GB, SB and MC sound much more appropriate in comparison

I agree!...Michael rules and is"MUCH" better then Butler and Michaels voice is much stronger 'AliLovesSomeone". Try actually listening to Michaels different videos and CDs or go see him live before you judge! You've got a right to your opinion but if you are not going to actually listen to Michael first or you just don't like him why did you watch this video!!!

Steve Barton (R.I.P.) was the greatest Raoul ever and this video is outstanding imo. Thanks! :)

Why do you have sarah brightman on hear? Emmy was so much better.
LesMisCrazy 3 years ago
on hear? Because Steve is so much better than Patrick, and Michael is So much better that Gerard. Kind of difficult to separate them when they sing in different keys. Like someone other than Ruthie Henshall singing 'I dreamed a dream'. No real point. Not even close.

why the need to redub these?
daveheel 3 years ago
Because I didn't like the audio from the film, I liked the original cast recording of the stageplay. Plus I wanted to practice video editing.

i like Gerard's voice better in this. It's more powerful.

I agree with Colinmcphan, Mr. Crawford is AMAZING! But I love/worship (lol) Mr. Butler and Mr. Crawford the same. They're both amazing actors and great singers. Ms. Brightman and Ms Rossum are less greater

Please never mix Michael and Butlers voices together. It would ruin MCs beautiful emotion and heartbreaking sound. I've seen the film and Michael live on stage and it was Mikes outstanding acting and singing that made me fall in love with Phantom. I wanted to run off with his Erik. Thanks again for a great job on the video. Your AWESOME!
colinmcphan 3 years ago
Michaels voice is waaay better then Butlers. Michael sings with more power, anger and emotion. I like how MC starts out devastated and sounding really hurt after seeing Christine and Raoul together. If you were the Phantom that would hurt you! Then the Phantom explodes with anger and emotion! I actually enjoy Sarah and Emma and I heard a video of Michael and Emmy together that was great. I also like Steves and Patricks singing equally well. Great job on the video and Michael ROCKS!!!

I thought that was Emmy Rossum... I could be wrong, but I'm almost positive. Sarah Brightman is in the actual Broadway Version, atleast, that's what I heard.
