Maravilloso!!!!!!!!!

@Purplelady0790 None, the less I have to give him credit for trying and he did good anyways even if it not exactly how Crawford sang it. Although I never heard Crawford sing.

@xanaminx I have to agree with you there. it hard to sing in English whether you speak it or not. I remember while in choir when ever we had a word that ended in a constantant the teacher always instructed us to say it a little differently or not at all. Especially when we were carrying that note with a word that ended in a constanant..

@8bandnerd i guess he was just nervous (look how he closes his fist), after all he doesn't sing in english that often (not solo, at least), so maybe he had a little bit stage-feaver even if he's a professional :P

I never said Bocelli wasn't incredible, again I reiterate that I am a fan, and I do feel Michael Crawford can sing. Bocelli is trying to sing it as an opera piece, which it is more of a musical piece. I like many of Bocelli's other songs. I like his Best Of, but in this particular case, I prefer Michael Crawford.

@8bandnerd

no, it's just not his mother tongue. he sings awesome, but English is not a very good language to sing in compared to Italian. words end with consonants too often, whereas Italian almost always ends with vowels, which can be sung way more emotionally.

@xanaminx it's fair you said that , it was michael crawford who was the original phantom and he was the one who really shaped the character but you can't not say that bocelli's voice isn't incredible, crawford was an actor doing a little singing , it worked because he was acting as the phantom whereas bocelli is singing it straight

[8bandnerd]

he sounds really bored while singing

I recognize his level of ability, but this is a really bad rendition of an incredible song.
