Sarah Brightman IS Christine! I don't care what anybody says about her, she was and is the best Christine Daae! Her voice is so unearthly beautiful that it matches perfectly what Gaston Leroux wrote in his book. Love this video! Wish I had been around to see the original production (all others pale in comparison)! Phantom forever! <3
I used to not be able to stand hearing Sarah as Christine. But I now have a great respect for her in the role. She looks and sounds beautiful as Christine in my opinion.

Lubię film z 2005, ale Sarah śpiewa to inaczej.To była pierwsza wersja, którą poznałam jeszcze na płycie,bez wizji,opowiadaną przez ojca, bo nie znałam wtedy angielskiego i wtedy się pierwszy raz zakochałam w Phantom of the Opera. To pozostaje...
Why may I ask (really Im sencerly asking) are people so fond of her voice? is it because it is high? sweet? please do explain, :) I would love to know, im doing a report so it would most deffinitely help:)
@midnightflowerbabe I like her understudy, Claire Moore, more than Sarah for the role of Christine. Her voice, face & acting were perfect. Listen to the recording of her singing Think of Me.
Thank you so much for posting this rare video. My 12 year old is inspired so much by Sarah, we recently went to see Phantom and to be honest a little dissappointed in Christines performace it just seem to lack something, but it was still fantastic.
my goodness i love sarahs voice but shes so rough when singing in this opera kind of when you pinch your noise when you are talking emmy is much more gentle in cringe at some of this old stuff hmm.... :/
Wicked... seeing the one and only original especially in the context with Carlotta.
I also noticed that in performances I had seen recently, the initial 'Think of me, think of me fondly' is sung with Christine's voice alot softer and shaking.
that most definitely is Sarah around 5 mins there....cant escape that voice, its one of a kind...absolutely brilliant performance by the one and only Sarah Brightman :)
The first time you hear "Think of Me", it's Carlotta singing. Then, around 5 minutes or so, Christine starts singing it, and it's obviously Brightman's voice.
@Joshy51112 Yes, it is. Her voice has matured and developed a lot since then, but there's no mistaking the inflections. Plus if you get the original recordings and compare, it's clearly the same.
She was born for this role, unfortunately not enough people realized this. The critics at the time were very harsh. I know she is such a perfectionist, and you can tell. This is a beautifully executed performance.
she wasnt just born for this role, andrew loyd webber WROTE the role of christine daae and all of christines songs specifically for sarah brightman!!! lol :)

Sarah's voice is so beautiful here, like a diamond. It is almost bell-like. Such an interesting and appealing vocal quality.

@flymeawaygod Listen to Claire Moore, Sarah's understudy. I like her much better than Sarah or Emmy for the role of Christine.
