10. Act 1 Scene 8 ~ Notes/Prima Donna

[ilovethemystry007]

is the phantom gerard butler?

[conricks246]

my school did this for our musical and i was in the pit and played trombone and it was amazing and might i say we had the best Andre and Firmin, they were everyones fav characters bc they improvised so much and great chemistry and just made everyone laugh, even the pit :P

[Poet2916]

is it horrible that I adore Patrick Wilson as Raoul but I hate the movie, and like the book and original Broadway cast better?

[CrisLli37]

You know what's kinda weird i actually have an easier time hitting Carlotta's high notes then i do Christine's i think its the whole over exaggeration of it, makes it easier to hit...maybe...I don't know but its fun

[daveedo10]

Judy Kaye is a genius.

[Mike0Powell]

I absolutely love watching the fade in of the Phantom reading the note live. I hate the end of this song because there's too many parts going on at once and it gets exhausting to try to get a grip on everyone's lines.

[MidnightStargazer1]

Anyone know where I can buy this song without having to buy the whole album?

[kristyjnh]

Man, I just wish there were lyrics displayed. The last quarter of the track get real confusing. It's hard to follow who is singing what.

[tubeofyous]

"Who would have the gall to send this?"

Has got to be my favorite line in this entire musical.

[damnyoustamos]

Firmin and Andre are my favorite characters.

[Purebloodprincess509]

My school did this play this year, I played Carlotta :D

[sunfireThu]

As much as Christine is the lead, Carlotta takes the cake in terms of singing high notes. I mean, whoever playing Carlotta has got to have a much better vocal range to hit these very notes in this song.

[moonblaze1000]

"We're in the dark."

"Monsieur, don't argue."

That always makes me laugh. I can imagine Andre thinking, 'But I wasn't arguing...'

[Infantcide]

lol. Carlotta makes the most epic temper tantrums.

[easier2run007]

the 1 person who disliked this doesn't understand Broadway and sing talking

[carlotta1924]

@xxBrie651xx i so agree with you 1M%! i really love the way how she sings :)

[DannyDomoSan]

my high school did this. i play the cello for the music. I loved every min. of it. I actually would stop playing just to watch the play. xD

[BelovedCaptain]

@DannyDomoSan Lol that's awesome. The play is so enchanting and fun to watch! I completely understand. :)

Btw, I love your channel! :D

[DannyDomoSan]

@BelovedCaptain thanks! I Hope to see if I can upload our verison of the play! it was the biggest production of all the years we did plays. we have a dvd is coming out.

I love this part of the play too! .... it was the only part i could play good sounding....xD

[BelovedCaptain]

@DannyDomoSan Whoa! A dvd?? That's cool!

[Bellabel19]

My school did Phantom.. I miss listening to this scene from backstage so bad. "She needed rest!" for some reason that's just such a funny line xD There are no words for how amazing this musical is. 6:20, such a beautiful harmony, gives me shivers.

[singyourloverssong95]

WHY DO THEY NOT HAVE PIANGI'S PART!?!

):

This makes me upset.

[Capricaquarius89]

@singyourloverssong95 Yeah, why is his part always cut when they record this song? His part really adds so much flavor to the song!

[WhispersandDreams]

6:20 - That is all.

:D

[xjohnnysxpiratex]

Once everyone gets going around 7:40 is when this song kicks some serious musical butt. :]

[xjohnnysxpiratex]

I love Meg's little parts she has in here, too.

[asmarahcheetah]

me:mom im leaving!

mom: where are yhu going?!

me:to kill the one person who hates this video!

(:

[BelovedCaptain]

@asmarahcheetah XDD lol

[14597ojai]

@asmarahcheetah *cyber five* :D

[Liquidcoat17]

1 person is a lamentable mess.

[gluedhand]

I love Steve Bartons voice especially him saying "Of course Not!" I love him and Micheal

[RosesNightengales]

I really love prima donna its such a beautiful song.

[0Charlotte666]

1 person sings worse than carlotta.

[cyscokid10]

you all sound like a bunch of geeks! thanks for who ever added this to youtube, but really people, get a life!

!

[aspiring13]

Raoul- "Your days at the Opera Populare are numbered,

Christine Daae will be singing on your behalf tonight,

be prepared for a great misfortune should you attempt to take her place." *DRAMATIC PAUSE*

Managers- ". . . Far to many notes for my taste!" Hahaha LOVE it :-)

[RosesNightengales]

@aspiring13 and most of them about Christine!!!

[NIKEsweet476]

@aspiring13 hahaha that part always makes me smile :)!

[1AdrianR]

Just the perfect lyrics...

[emmyrossumfn101]

LOL! This is one of the funniest parts! Haha this is great.

[CoolMintMakeup]

"Is this her angel of music?"

Heavenly. I could listen to that one line over and over again. RIP Steve Barton.

[misterred23]

My favorite part is when Raoul says "Is this her Angel of Music?" I can't stop repeating in my head!

[JAlanaE]

- Isn't this the letter you wrote?

- And what is it that we're meant to have wrote? ... Written....

:D I love the lyrics of this one... :D

[royaloctopus]

Carlotta is saying:

Gentlemen, it is true? No, no, I do not want to hear! Let me die! Or my father! God!

Abandoned! Deserted. Oh, accursed!

Abandoned! Disgraced! I won't sing!

I won't sing!

[misterred23]

@royaloctopus Thank you. Seriously

[emmyrossumfn101]

@royaloctopus Haha! I love Carlotta. She's really funny. My favorite character will always be the Phantom tho! :D

[mikeym820]

Wow.. thank you for this!

[morbius076j]

"....purile brain..." "....who the hell is he...." "....nothing plainer he is clearly quite insane."

Love it, absolutely love it. Makes me laugh every time.

[MagDuke]

Ah, I adore Raoul's voice.

[MUSICALANGIE]

@MagDuke made me miss Steve all over again. R.I.P

[JeFfHaRdYLuVr4EvEr]
