[cval1117]

lol at 3:13 The Persian is like "DAMN GURRRRRLLLL"

[Enk64]

It's weird, she looks alot like Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

[Indigo9192]

Sing off!!

[spirkislogical]

Do these people know that in this movie it's Philippe, not Raoul?

[Metromary007]

michele la grange is singing for teri polo's character in this flick. beautiful soprano voice!

[nddlj]

Is Teri Polo really singing? If she's not the real singer, could someone tell me the name of the soprano who dubbed over her? Thanks! Her voice is just so sweet and soft <3

[carrendeavein]

@nddlj

michele lagrange is the singer ^^

[RinoaLionstar]

Her entrance to the Bistro and everyone amazed it's her...makes me think about Cinderella. :)

[Keezree]

Audience progression:

>:/ Hmm....

:\ Hmm!

:) Oooh!

:D I could fap to that!

Carlotta appears:

-_- Gtfo.

[15rrainwater]

shut up foppers you're ruining a 14 year old's fantasy!

[saya5933]

anybody know what the song they sang is called??

I'de love to hear that more often. :)

[giek85]

@saya5933 this is "Par le rang et par l'opulance" from Donizetti's La fille du regiment, one of the most faboulous arias written by him!

[ainzleyvillalon]

This is the best part! Haha! Boo you Mean Carlotta! CHRISTINE all the way :D

[riffmagos]

Carlotta sounds like a female moose in heat. ~covers my ears~

[RinoaLionstar]

@riffmagos Heh, Christine is singing. Phantom is :D

Carlotta singing. Phantom is D:

[phangirl1986]

This is one of my favorite parts of the whole show. Carlotta, you just got UPSTAGED!

[JackWluver]

Every time Phillipe appears, my mind screams "FOPFOPFOPFOPFOP!"

[phangirl1986]

@JackWluver lol and Raoul is all "foppity foppity foppity fop" lol

[annagirl1996]

I wouldve slapped that bitch carlotta

[SurferBabe4Ever]

Christines voice is awesome!

[ShadowDwellerXXX]

the faces carlotta makes are just....-shudders- i think she needs a mask, not Erik...

[ReflectedHeart]

the crestfallen look on Carlotta's face and the "Christine!" whispered by Carlotta are TOO FUNNY for words!!! XD

[BarnabasFrid]

I just realized... that's Ian Richardson. How did I miss that?

[BeveragesAfterNine]

Does anyone know what this song is? Cause it's amazing!

[angelofmusicangel]

@BeveragesAfterNine this song is "Par le rang et lopulence" from the opera La fille de regiment. but it's a solo not a duet!

[BeveragesAfterNine]

@angelofmusicangel Ah! Thank you so much!

[CancerousPiesRTasty]

does anyone know the name of the song they sing here?

[Lyrinthian1]

@CancerousPiesRTasty Belle Canto i think

[angelofmusicangel]

@CancerousPiesRTasty yes this song is "Par le rang et lopulence" from the opera La fille de regiment. but it's a solo not a duet!

[jazzandmint]

Woo, Christine! You go, girl!

[LottieGlenisterzGirl]

Lol! Christine Vs Carlotta:

Go on Christine!!! Take down that warbling bitch!! :D

Hahahaha Carlotta, you got mugged off!! xD

[Rurushufan2010]

@LottieGlenisterzGirl lol yeah, or as I would say:

Christine vs. Carlotta

Christine= Winner!!

Carlotta= FAIL!!

[ReflectedHeart]

ah, I think the most touching part of this part of the movie is where Erik holds his hand to his heart happily after hearing her sing from a distance... <333

[JeLlIcLeZ]

Oh my god,he is so gorgeous...ERIK, I mean. Not foppish girly douchebag man Raoul/Phillipe. He's so obviously enchanted and touched by her voice, it's amazing to watch. <333

[margrette4]

@JeLlIcLeZ does anyone know why they changed the name to phillipe instead of raoul when every other phantom of the opera that i know of the vicomte name is raoul. I mean come on phillipe makes him sound much girler then what he looks like but who know. oh by the way all the way with erik/christine.

[ArabianPirate102]

@margrette4 I know that in the original Gaston Leroux novel Raoul's older brother's name was Philipe. Why they changed it I have no idea, but it does make him sound even more foppish than usual...

[ChristinaDestler]

i love the movie.... but both voices, christine and carlotta, sound like they were forced

[PhanPhoreverever]

Who performed Christine's singing parts? Or did the actress sing?

[Silverw1ng]

the guy singing at 3:55 reminds me of my grandad at christmas

[TheJazzyBReal]

PFFFT, Carlotta get the hell out of the song! You're making it sound like two owls hooting!

[Hyunju87]

Wow Erik is sooo cute!! His hands were balled up in to fists then he touched his heart! How cute!

[musicalover4eva110]

Could someone please tell me the song that Christine sings? It's so beautiful :)

[Carmela1881]

@musicalover4eva110

It's Donizetti, La Figle du Regiment

You can find it by typing "Par le rang et par l'opulence"

Christine's performance is beautiful :)

[Carmela1881]

@Carmela1881

Sorry, La Fille of course - can't get rid of Italian

BTW, both ladies did a great job arranging a solo aria as a duet :)

[musicalover4eva110]

@Carmela1881 Thanks so much!!!

[TheJazzyBReal]

DAMN, this Raoul [or who he is supposed to be] is cute. He's literally as pretty as Christine.

[twiwonder]

Wow...Carlotta's falling for Raoul....only the five billionth woman to have done so

pervert

I swear; everytime i see one of those sluts who make fun of Christine, I want to throttle them

[GarakBashir]

They use music so cleverly in this movie. This aria and Michèle Lagrange's voice are so haunting. It's so cool how they spontaneously made it into a duet.

[stopEvilution]

this is WAY better then the andrew lloyd webber version

[livkivi]

5:40 Erik is like 'Oh shiiit...'

[smellydee]

7:58 did erik just touch his heart? OMG i love him in this movie!!!! hes so sweet and protective!!!!!!

[standardbearer]

The manager dude reminds me of Lugi from the Mario brothers:)

[BEEmyANGEL]

Charlotta looks like a man! And Raoul looks like a woman!!! 

[queenofsingin99]

CARLOTTA GOT PWNED!

[phantomchick8888]

is that rlly her singing? shes fantastic!

[theopera0angel]

@phantomchick8888 no, that's actually Michèle Lagrange, she dubbed Teri Polo's voice.

[lolkittehs34]

"I am NOT a buffoon!"

Sure fooled me. LOL.

[LerouxsPhantom]

I hate Philippe. I wish Erik would kill him like in the 1989 version! >:(

[rayna181]

Dude, every woman there is wearing make up except Christine. Know why? She has natural beauty unlike these...boneheads. Lol.

[Nacidodelmar]

@rayna181 What a beautiful angelical ! I wish there was such a real sopranos like her

the angel face and the angel voice plus a nice attitude. What a Dream!

[nbkcq28]

@rayna181 Christine's character is innocent, hence no makeup.  The other women are overly made up, to emphasize their worldliness. And yes, she is a natural beauty.

[hvanh84]

Wow, nobody noticed that in fact, the both voices are complements for each? Together they sounds perfect. Imagine Christine singing without Carlotta...! It wouldn't be so powerful!

[lechugaxd]

visconde raoul parece maricqa .... la voz de cristine es hermosa!!! el fantasma se ve tan tierno..

[loyalfalconflutist]

when she starts singing, i just want everyone else to shut up.

[cnichol51]

God i hate all the Raoul's stupid fag! I love Erik!!!

[trivinia]

It's a karaoke bar. A late 19th century karaoke bar. -facepalm- Nevertheless. Christine has a beautiful voice.

[iluvsnoopy25]

wow..

[happyunhappy13]

The look on her face 2:59 priceless.

[Sunnifly]

Phillipe is pretty hot XD :DRawraw ;)

[kol43210]

hmmm:) if carlotta hadn't sang with cristine, no one would saw christine, actually:) so christine has to be thankfull:)

oh, sorry for my english, its already 01.00A.M.

[Roby0685]

The Phantom of the Opera is my favorite movie :)

I love this video <3

[Elissaveta5]

What an astonishing voice.And how sentimental does Eric seems while he is so anxious about his beloved student...He worries about Cristines happyness...Carlotta is just so so funny!

[lilanthia]

8:33 'My work here is done!'

[Scar2401]

Christine looks so much better with her hair down.

[VildePP]

agree.. i think she would fit a fringe^^

[JeanetteCameron]

I don't have any period costumes, really, but I wore a dress to the library once and I kept on getting comments like 'nice' and 'you don't see people wearing those often anymore.'

[kotoriluvsu2]

the dot on carlotta's nose bothers me

*tries to wipe it off*

CURSE YOU SPOT!

[kol43210]

i like them both singing:D

[bustykitty702]

OH COLLATA GOTBURNED

[ShatteredPuzzle]

Carlotta isn't a bad singer. She just animates herself a little too much.

[altodivo]

r u kidding? She sounds like surgery without anaesthetic.

[WOLFFDEPPSPONGEBOB]

Oh my god, that was really funny xD the Carlotta in the '04 movie isn't that bad. She just has a funny fake Italian accent xD

[musicalover4eva110]

Christine owned the stage:D!!!! Wish I had a voice like that.

[SusanDelgado1177]

I feel sorry for carlotta. Might be the only one though

[SashalovesErik]

I want to be able to sing that song, its beautiful

[readysteadydude]

do they sing real ?? yes right ?? it's beautiful !! (christine not carlotta!!)

[misslavelli]

does anyone know the name of this song?

[LollirockStar7]

Its a Song from the Opera "La fille du régiment"

and i think its named "C'en est donc fait___Par le rang et par l'opulence" or so ^^

[MalikaRad]

was it originally a duet?

[LollirockStar7]

No.... :-/

[vmkwinner]

? pawnage?

[yumichan899]

PWN... it's kind of like "owned", if that helps. :)

[FrauofGermany]

Erik+fedora=PWNAGE!!!

[nina12345678917]

yeah christine you show Carlotta tht she sux

[SailorDirector]

Carlotta just got served.

[107531kop]

@SailorDirector Indeed. Charlotta... you just got owned!!!

[kgirl101333]

they don't sound half bad together

[AmericanEvita]

I wish this was in the Webber musical! Christine's voice may be smaller than Carlotta's but she can LAST LONGER and she has a lot more heart and passion..Carlotta sings to show off and Christine really feels the music...she is the better singer! and its nice to see Carlotta realize that and be defeated by her

[Cr0wsFeet]

What's the song?

[AmericanEvita]

I have never heard the song in an opera so it must be a French folk song/ballad...the French cafes were full of singers who didnt sing opera but sang popular songs known to the common people

[evertime492]

When the piano started playing, I half expected it to play "Learn to be Lonely."

[PhantomInTraining]

That wasn't even written when this movie/t.v. mini series was made. I don't think it was even thought of.

[evertime492]

i know, but i was listening to it at the time, and the piano part reminded me of it.

[PhantomInTraining]

Ooh, okay. :)

[LoveofthePhantom]

Carlotta is really bad at singing her vowels

[EmilyGreene1984]

I love Christine's gown in this scene, I wish it would be more acceptable for women to wear these outfits again in modern society.

[domramalaja]

Now you made me curious, EmilyGreene1984. What kind of society do you live in which would not accept such a pretty gown?

[PhantomInTraining]

Honestly, if you were to wear that today around town, or even a night out if it weren't a black tie event, you would probably be laughed at, unfortunatly.

[domramalaja]

I think that depends on were one is living,

PhantomInTraining. (Strange that I go two thumbs down on my previous comment, btw. This comment was addressing my point.)

I, now and then, wear my period costumes on underground and buses on my way to gigs and my experience is the opposite; people come to me and kindly ask what I am up to and also commend what I wear.

[PhantomInTraining]

Huh. That's interesting. What do you do at your gigs, if you don't mind my asking.

Hehe, I think I'm going to do that someday. :)

[domramalaja]

I do not mind at all, PhantomInTraining. It is mainly historical dancing (appr. 15th-19th C.) but sometimes we are asked only give some "time-feeling" at events, just to be present, that is.

Perhaps the way one is treated also depends upon one's own behaviour and "air". I never feel as I am going to a masquerade, I wear my costumes with pride and try to be as accurate to the period as I possibly can, from head to toe, so to speak.

[domramalaja]

In addition, should anyone laugh, he/she only reveals his/her own ignorance and is not worth taking notice to. As written previously, I have not experienced that wearing my period costumes, but I have with my traditional one (used in folkdancing).

[thenana011]

@EmilyGreene1984 , I totally love her gown too...but the hair...sry, but....just a bit of a NO!

[Silverw1ng]

@EmilyGreene1984 would definately be a contrast, a change for the better

[wherokee178]

@EmilyGreene1984 wait you mean it isn't?! -looks down at lolita dress- darn it! -stomps off in ruffles and petticoats-

[TraineeHero]

@EmilyGreene1984 So lets make it acceptable. I have a beautiful dress in the same style at home and as soon as the weather warms up I intend to wear it into town.

[Nefertari155]

@TraineeHero My sentiments exactly:-) And you are officially my hero now!XD

[oneworldguy]

@EmilyGreene1984, why isn't it acceptable now? It looks perfectly appropriate for ball-type occasions...

[edwardgracy]

@EmilyGreene1984 You are not the only one. I would love to dress gentlemanly so-to-speak in the day in age, anywhere ranging from tails and waistcoat to , to the duster cosmopolitan frontier look. The Victorian age was one of the many beautiful eras.

[Jedidragon17]

"I am NOT a buffoon!" - Coulda fooled me! ;)

[maryjanesleiche]

Michele Lagrange is sooo great!
