Crawford manages to make the song have an evil but vulnerable quality that just pulls you into the phantom's longing to possess the song.

Thank you Michael ❤❤

Nobody can be as good as good as Michael EVER

❤❤❤❤❤❤😊

I have seen two of his plays in London 1973/1974. My mother and i were very fortunate to see Michael in concert here in Sydney in i think 1992 at the State Theatre. He was wonderful and received standing ovations for his performance. What a performer, brilliant!

Michael was the first and best Phantom ever.

Pure perfection .

Bravo 👏👏👏

Each phrase layered with such emotion; a privilege to listen to!

We can hear every single word when he sings and that is really something. Unlike other versions by other famous singers.

I listened to the soundtrack of this opera for a year strait 😊

He puts everything into his performance, as if he were back on the stage!

I was lucky to see Michael in one of his last performance in Los Angeles of the Phantom, 7:26

of course, I also remember my mother, who said she had good intentions, so she did not have to be sorry for the harm she caused.

I think of that man two thousand years ago, who said you must forgive seventy times seven.

Splendid performance 👏.

What I love in music of the night is the contrast between the powerful high notes and the softer singing just after

There's only one phantom that's Michael Crawford

whatever became of Michael???

Just as I remember it from the Best of Michael Crawford album. Perfect

THE number one phantom.

Simply the best.So believable

I think this is the nth time that i watch him again…Very very impressive

Brilliant

Michael Crawford the best Phantom no one will ever replace him

Magnificent performance! 👏

Beautiful Absolutely Heart Melting 🎶🤗🎶🫂🎶😭

Marvellous brilliant ❤

no words beautiful 👍👍👍👍👍

Great singer comedian lovely gentleman

Had the pleasure of seeing this man and Sarah Brightman in Vancouver BC at the QueenE 2 times and in La at the La opera house 2 times. Very powerful performances and magic between the two. Never be able to match their styles or energy’s.

My favorite play of all time. Seen it three times!!!

Wonderful,just wonderful.Beautifully performed,written and composed.

A great memory from a Nuchael Crawford concert in Grand Rapids, MI. Michael Crawford mesmerized that audience. Happy to hear him again. I also saw his performance in Phantom.

Amazing voices

I was so surprised when i first heard him sing such a great voice ❤

Great song, well sung.

Love, love, love this son, beautiful rendition ❤️

This introduction, must be the best given to any SIR A.L.W. Classical Presentations, in my humble opinion...

He is so missed.

When you see class that's what performers should try to achieve and not try and be famous by being on some shit tv programs

Frank Spencer to The Phantom, actor, singer, author, awesome.

Some mothers do have em…..

Your year of practising as Nelson Eddie certainly paid off . A lovely rendition

Don't forget, you're not "just" witnessing a masterful, heart-rending male voice. The lyric writing. The orchestra. The choir. All of it is just perfection.

Micheal. Crawford. Was. Great. As. The. Phantom. 1988

I WAS LIVING IN LONDON, WHEN THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA CAME OUT IN THE WEST END OF LONDON.😊
