who's playing the phantom now?

[the3aremine1]

He would be a brilliant Phantom- if he sorted his hair

[CAYVANC]

I think once Ramins finished love never dies, Ryhdian would be a worthy successor.

Rhydian sung Music Of The Night (with simply piano accompliment) at Birmingham in May. It stunned the audience simply a breathtakingly brilliant. Simply put he doesn't need a mask and the performance was spine tingling.He was offered Broadway Phantom!

This is good and I enjoy Rhydian on different songs other then this. Ramin is a good singer to in general. After listening to both gentlemen sing MOTN and Phantom songs in as many videos as I could find I have to agree with HowRoger. I miss Michael Crawfords beautiful passion and sensitivity with the song as well as his sensuality. I got to see MC in Phantom as well as concert and there was a magic to his acting and singing that is hard to describe. I respect all 3 men but wish this had been MC

[GJR1975]

Does anyone think that Rhyd would be an awesome Javert?

[vielsu]

Yes! I think he'd be perfect.

[TheBroadwayluver5111]

@GJR1975 he would be amazing!

[barbh0]

What a superb performance. Rhydian's voice suits this song perfectly.

Hi Stephlodge. First many thanks the vd is very good the orchestra and the vocals in a duet! The definative Phantom is Michael Crawford who created the role. Josh Grobin sang in front of Lord Webber 2 year ago (great but faster tempo). Rhydians Baritone voice brings colour to the Phantoms character which is often played one dimensional Gothic character. I look for Voice! Voice! Voice! in actors! Rhydian is much more subtle sensitivity superior Technique. Webber is cleary a Fan! Its World Class!

[HowRoger]

Your final Note isn't the final note the song lasts over 5 minutes. Michael Crawford's version of this and his Phantom are considered the greatest ever. Rhydian was aksed to sing this (he has never played the Phantom) I presume by Lord Webber. He was chosen above many great singers including Ramin (current WE Phantom). Rhydian creates this tortured yet fragile Phantom in his unrequitable love! Rhydians Phantoms is the Phantom! I enjoy Ramin's Phantom but it is single dimensional. A Great Singer

[stephlodge]

I know that its only part of the song, I stopped filming so I could watch the rest of it. Ramin did actually sing aswell, he sung the Phantom song with Gina Beck who was amazing.

I will upload my vids at some point. Great video, gotta luv rhydian except the final note was a bit dull.

[lbshard]

Stupendous!

Rhydian's cd is out November 17th - are we in for a treat!

[anitta288]

OMG, he is fantastic!

I just saw the musical few days ago and this young man is like 100 times better that the singer who sings Phantom in the musical.

What a talent!

He is going to be a superster.

What a voice!

[hurleyd]

He played this so good! You can tell he just wants to be The Phantom but i think the current guy playing The Phantom was 10 times better than Rhydian. Still he sang it great, scared me!

[karendiamond]
