  • Michael Ball, Elaine Paige and Glenn Close standing on the same stage performing together has got to the best thing I've ever seen! In my opinion, those three were the best parts of the show; Glenn in Sunset Boulevard, Elaine in Cats and Michael in this.

  • I love these song very very much. Always when I hear this, I get tears in my eyes.

  • Who is that woman at 1:34? I really like her voice

  • @halong55 That's Tina Arena, you can hear more from her in the video "Whistle down the Wind" from this same show, which is the Andrew Lloyd Webber 50 years celebration.

  • Nothing more disturbing that Ronans little wink. Urgh

  • Top notch stuff. Just fantastic!!

  • Very nice

  • Love his voice. WIsh he hadn't decided to wear that dress.

  • @GospelAccording2ME - dress?! You are an ignorant little knave, aren't you? He looks completely elegant.

  • @GospelAccording2ME Ignorant little knave

  • what enormous performance they give. remember the time i sing this song with my choir for a wedding ceremony and later i would like to have this beautiful song for my own wedding :)

  • Humans at their best!!!

  • Sarah feels she's so good, she doesn't need a mic

  • Love that corny wink Ronan gives at 02:16.

  • Love Michael Ball!

    How cute is Stephen Gately at the background. Only he sang with the group. The rest boyzone had no clue about this song!

  • Gran verdad: "El amor lo cambia todo", y gran voz, gran presencia escénica y mejor interpretación del talentosísimo Michael Ball. Aplausos!!!

  • Love does change everything.

    Beautiful performance, amazing singers, simply wonderful.

  • A variety of stars from musicals and shows of all kinds combining their talents to perform a song with a wonderful message and beauty. This is truly something to treasure. Wonderful performance! :)

  • also who is the guy in the res shirt and white top ?

  • @DRP996

    Thats Julian Lloyd-Weber, Andrews Brother - he's a fantastic violinist!

  • Who is the black man at the start, i know his face but can't think who he is or what he has been in.. Anyone know ?

  • @DRP996 The guy you are talking about is Ray Shell - he was the original Rusty in Starlight Express.

  • too much lust in the world and not enough Michael Boltons

  • Nobody else could sing this song, others had tried, but he is the best.

  • what era did smocks become fashionable?

  • Honestly this is SO amazing, but Michael Crawford singing this is SOO amazing I cry. Sorry if I offend you, but just wanted to say my opinion.. (:

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!

  • why was this not the finale song, why not do the cats songs before this

  • This has always been my fav ALW song.. Since my sch days! :)

  • @binary0018 Then you will SURE like Franz Schubert - Piano Sonata D. 960 part 2 !

  • Had to watch it over and over again... Just... wow.

    By the way, does anyone know who the man walking with Sarah Brightman is?

  • @AllOverAussie that's her son

  • @AllOverAussie It's Andrew Lloyd Webbers brother, Julian.

  • who are them more morons ruining the song??? ffs

  • @MpsAREthieves They were the other people that were in the show. If I'm right this was the last song. Also the people in the white suits arr boyzone. I hope that helped/

  • Dear Patricia!!

    I love, love this song ... beautiful, just beautiful ... I love Michael tooo:):)

    Liz:):)

  • wish i knew love...:/

  • 2:15 is my favorite. The guy in the back... oh man.

  • This performance was pre-recorded. Watch the music-mouth coordination after 3mins.

  • @arjosca If you mean that bit after "The" (same), that was delayed speakers

  • @arjosca I just I think the whole upload is a little out of sync. I have a dvd of this performance and it's synced better. Still glad it's on here though, cause I love it. :)

  • God bless us , one and all.

  • Michael has such a lovely voice this is beautiful!!

  • i love this song.

  • "sigh" That is all just "sigh"

  • whos the woman on 1:35, I love her voice!

  • @buffyxangelll Tina Arena

  • Wow.. ageless and timeless. I watched this video tape of that concert in elementary school music class.

  • sorry. I heard Trekkie Monster from Avenue Q sing this first; I cannot listen to this song without hearing his husky voice... T_T

  • id love to hear jai mcdowell sing this song

  • I remember watching this at the RAH; it was watching Michael perform this song that got me into Musical Theatre. Absolutely timeless.

  • These are magical moments when the world should stand still.

  • Love the moment at 3:08 where Glenn Close is so enraptured by Michael that she forgets to sing. 

  • great song! i've always loved andrew lloyd weber's music. I can very much relate to this. indeed.. love changes everything!... for the better... thanks for posting...

  • I try to say something nice about this presentation, but I guess I'm not a credible poster.

  • WOW! Fantastic presentation!

  • Micheal Ball was MADE to sing Andrew Lloyd Webber songs. :D

  • awesome singer but why is he dressed like a vicar?

  • @wightknight121 He is singing for Love...and Love is Holy.

  • @wightknight121 Hahahaha, good one, I guess that's his idea of elegance!!!

  • This man is amazing. This song is amazing. Everything about this is amazing.

  • I get chills every time I watch him hitting that last note! Brilliant,just brilliant!

  • Go MICHAEL BALL

  • He should be Olly Murs' dad. He looks a little like him in certain face expressions.

  • Michael Ball, the best singer I heard singing broadway as well as anything, like Lea Salonga, they are the superstars of Broadway and the world best singers.

  • the kind of song people who are manly and romantic wished their loving relationships to be like..... until you realise she was just a slapper who stabs you in the heart, rips it out and stomps on it in gravel and walks away with eyes set on the next victim

    love is a four letter word just like lust and people don't know one from the other

    great tune though !

  • Have to have my fix of this song everyday.....love it and Michael Ball has the best voice for it ...not to mention the cute dimples :))

  • love it love it

  • This moves my soul..Julia is a fan of Andrews work. Good stuff xxxx

  • This is one moves my very soul....we sing it often. Hulla is a big fan of Andrew. xx

  • wierd that everyone is wearing black and white except andrews brother is there a story behind that?

  • @xXicecream9995Xx I think it was for a bet that his brother made, they're both Leyton Orient supporters

  • oh god...his voice.... that vibrato.... gets me everytime

  • Perfect for valentine's day <3

  • God bless Stephen Gately! R.I.P young fella!

  • Stephen Gately at 2:07 ... So adorable!

  • I LOVE Andrew Lloyd Webber's music/plays. It just doesn't get any better than this song. It's so awesome to see so many stars from his other plays in this video! I need to start clicking around to 'net to buy this tribute video. Wow, Michael Ball you sound amazing as usual! Thanks for putting this on you tube!

  • I love Andrew Lloyd Webber music this is one of my favorite songs!!! It's so awesome to see all of past performers of his various plays in this video...I need to buy this and watch the entire tribute. So glad I found this!

  • I am so gay for Michael Ball!

  • How can you say how much you appreciate Michael Ball's voice?? So many memories wrapped up in this show.

  • Beautiful man. Beautiful voice.

  • I love this song

  • I love this, but I can swear this is a lower key?

  • @firsttenor76 that just makes it sound that much better

  • love ronan keating winking at michael ball :)

  • I watched this at the RAH, absolutely sensational. Always gives me the shivers, this song is one of the most beautiful compositions ever recorded; Michael immortalised this for me... Utter perfection.

  • why did they have this song before memory for cats, i mean come on this is a perfect closing song especially since its got all the performers in it

  • He needs body guards to bounce these people that keep interupting him.

  • i bought this album on tape. unfortunately this was the only song on it i liked :)

    Lovely ballad

  • 2:17 cheeky wink ;)

  • Love THis Voice! .

  • Why is Antonio Banderas There?

    

  • @HappyThoughtsToU what do you mean ... He was one of the performers.

  • he is brilliant :)

    im in a forces family living in cyprus atm and he was out here at a hotel for a holiday. today, he came into my school and talked to the gcse/a level drama and music people :D he is soo nice and funny, one of the kindest people i have ever met. he sang a song from les mis, took a group photo with us and signed autographs :)

  • All really talented performers but Michael Ball just captivates everyone and draws you in like no one else could. His voice, power, and charisma just steal the performance and make it magnificant :D

  • Ronan Keating throwin him a wink...haha cheeseball!

  • is going to see Aspects of Love this afternoon.

  • @selfevidently How was it?

  • he has the most amazing voice,, love him!!!

  • Superstars are present here ! Brilliant as all the Lloyd Webber's works !

  • Just out of sight ! Brilliant ! So impressing, Greetings from Malta

  • I have to say I don't really rate Michael Crawford at all. Even though that's likely to get me lynched by a whole lot of Phans. I really don't like him! Besides, Ramin Karimloo did the Phantom far better IMO (and I mean in Phantom not Love Never Dies). Michael Ball is without a doubt a fantastic singer who I've adored since I saw him in the original london Les Mis cast.

  • DAMN...DUDE NAILED THAT LAST NOTE PERFECTLY!

  • @bkyau Yes... but the key was lowered ;)

  • Awesome stuff ^^

  • I loooooove Michael's voice!!!

  • Michael Ball is the only person who can credibly sing this song imo

  • @phantomphan4eva oh, i don't know....i first heard this song on Michael Crawford's "performes Andrew Lloyd Webber" album...I always thought he did a fine job....

  • This guy is amazing.

  • SARAHHHHH!!!!

  • Had to sing this in choir lol

  • @NickyLess As did I. And now I can't get it out of my head.

  • who are all singing here? Love the song!

  • he should have done eurovision

  • @ultimatesimpsonsfan Michael Ball? He actually have done the Eurovision in the past. 1992 to be exact. He sang a song called "One step out of time" Just search for it here on youtube.

  • can someone tell me all the names of the people in this video. Excelent.

  • Turn it up

    

  • EXCELLENT, BRAVO STANDS UP AND CHEERS..

  • this song is so beautiful it makes me cry

  • Love the ending. Big finish.

  • Beatiful performance!

  • Such a beautiful song, sung by a beautiful voice.

  • wow!!! really good

  • it makes me cry

  • who are they guys in white that go and stand behind Michael?

  • @Jozzie1987

    It's the group Boyzone... the lead singing passed away recently.

  • Wow...

  • She fancies him!!

  • he looks kind of like a priest

  • Everyone must give credit to Charles Hart for writing this song. Or Was it Richard Stilgo. Anyonen of them deserves credit. ^^

  • Very good but couldn't hold a match to Michael Crawford's talent...sorry; especially at the end because Crawford can hold the last note ("...Same") for at least 15 full seconds. Enjoyable though:)

  • @MrIank1989 So can Michael Ball! Just listen to his recording of the song or watch some of the other clips where he performs it.

    Michael Crawford IS a great singer, but he will never beat Michael Ball in this song.

    The difference between MC and MB is that MC is a trained singer, MB isn't - his voice is natural. And I think MB is the better actor of the two - he really knows how to put the right amount of emotion into a song.

  • I love how Glenn look at Michael at 3:09 :) You can see she is really enjoying his performance :D

  • The woman with Donny Osmond is Tina Arena...check out her biography on the Internet.

  • does anyone know who Donny Osmond is singing with in this video?

  • @Jozzie1987

    it's Tina Arena :)

  • en el final , Elaine Page se pierde alegremente observando el performance de Michael. He's Super.

  • Beautiful; thank you :)

  • still loving his voice

  • omg i love him! Is it wrong that I also find him VERY attractive?! Glenn is amazing too!!

  • his voice is so incredibly versatile! My fav singer EVER!!

  • That was beautiful. It was so awesome that the one lady forgot to start singing LOL.

  • thought it was a cute exchange betwwen michael ball and ronan keating once Boyzone got on stage!

  • You mean the blond guy? Yeah, I noticed that the first time I saw it. It's right around 2:16.

  • Gorgeous!

  • Till I saw this never knew Banderas was a singer....Bravo!!!!!

  • Dear YouTube friends: Michael Balls? Who is he? An illustrious unknown man.

  • He's not unknown at all, in fact he's relatively famous in the musical theatre world. Check out his bio on Wikipedia.

  • Michael Ball is really only unknown in the US. In London, he has been the lead in MANY of Andrew Lloyd Webber productions. He basically replaced Michael Crawford in the original production of "Phantom" when Crawford got "too old" for it. He has also had many British TV specials & has recorded several albums. Get a copy of 'Anderew Lloyd Webber - Celebration" or search for musical performance by Michael Ball. You won't be disappointed.

  • This is the first time I hear Michael Ball's song. Thanks for telling.

  • Hi opened Aspects on Broadway almost 20 years ago. I think you'll find he ddin't replace Crawford, he played alongside him in London.

  • I've been a fan of Michael Ball since I was a kid and I live in the US. Just sayin.

  • Michael Balls... lol

  • Michael BALL happens to be very well known all over the world, just not as familiar to the U.S. He is an incredibly talented singer/performer/actor. Also has his own radio show. Very successfully I might add. He is also a very nice, genuine and funny gentleman you'll notice if you watch any of his interviews. If you can't say something nice....

    s

  • This is such a great song! I love how everyone who sang or is going to sing is on that stage! Thanks for posting!

  • I actually applauded and said, "Well done" haha

  • I can't help but stood up and applauded. All the talented on ONE stage! Love Westlife, Sarah, Donny and the others. Thank you!

  • Me too!

  • @imelbil

    It's Boyzone there.

  • Michael Ball is heaven to the ears. And what a sweet smile.

  • Wow!

    I love it!

    Almost stood up to clap!

  • I love the way Glen Close stops singing to watch Michael in the end. Shows she thinks he's as brilliant as we do! :)

  • @Sliz3 I read an interview where she said she was appalled at his "show-boating". Possibly.

  • @Anothersatellite You want to watch a "show-boater," watch Anthony Warlow. Great voice but a little full of himself. I have a lot of respect for Michael Ball.  I would think Glen Close was a little envious of his showstopping performance in this concert. Amazing!

  • excelente!!!

  • Nice version. Thank you for sharing.

  • i love this kind of music.

  • *gasp* All that talent packed into one room makes me want to cry!!! Wow!!!!

  • maravillosa!

    saludos desde las islas Filipinas!

  • i first watched this when it first came out on video-cassette, and i still watch it from time to time.. it just never gets old!! THANKS for posting! (not just this video, but all the other ones.. they're all FABULOUS and each one takes me on a trip down memory lane ..) i LOVE it!

  • i absolutly loveeee this song, it brings tears to my eyes but tears of joy...
