Plus, Michael is very capable of singing beautifully in the lower pitches - I suppose it's baritone, but I'm not musically inclined so I've no idea. He's got a tremendously versatile voice.

Butler's voice is NOT deeper. His attempt at singing this is in the exact same key. The big difference is GB's voice is rough and harsh, and not at all like 'the voice of an angel' which is how it's supposed to be as described in the book. Crawford's voice actually meets that description and more. His creation and portrayal of the role can never be topped, let alone matched. Power? MC's voice is known for it's power when he sings out.

Having a deeper voice does not make one more masculine - there is nothing feminine about Michael's voice. Unfortunately some people still cling to the stereotype of maleness being defined by deep voice or macho behaviour. Butler shouldn't ever be compared to Michael as they aren't in the same league, but then I think the latter is brilliant in anything he does and can't ever be topped as the Phantom - not just by Butler. His tenor is gorgeous and compelling - no one does it like he does.

Gerad has a deeper voice and Crawford's is higher pitched and yes it is less masculine, he might have been the man who shaped the role, however Butler's voice to me is just more powerful and better for the phantom

@destructivedandy meh.

@poola2539 No way, I appreciate you may prefer Gerard in the film, but there wasn't anything girly or less superior to Crawford. He was the original and he owned and shaped the role for everyone else to come

2004 version=SO much better.
