Always love you Maggie

[@JoeCruz-hs2yt]

can you react to the great joni mitchell live in chicago i think singing the song woodstock she's amazing !

[@BaronVonLevitt]

would love to see you reaction to The Majestic 'The Phantom of The Opera' (Sarah Brightman & Antonio Banderas) | Phantom Of The Opera

[@charlieknowlton7003]

Have you reacted to How Can I Go On? By Freddie Mercury and Monsteratt Cabale?Just a personal favorite of mine out of all their performances together. I could only find your reaction to Barcelona.

[@michaeldalzell6670]

It’s been a while, but I watched this many times… I get full on chills every time I watch this

[@marcelotto6825]

Love this performance and reaction. I'm a fan of both artists. But every time I see the name "Sarah Brightman" my first memory is of her as a young disco singer (Sarah Brightman and Hot Gossip) who had a minor hit with "I lost my heart to a starship trooper". VERY different to the Sarah Brightman most people know and love.

[@sleepingwolf_8]

When her husband wrote the music with her vocals in mind, no wonder why she can deliver a great performance. That said, yes she is great. I've also seen Andrea live once, something I'll NEVER forget. I'm a fan for life. Not their best performance but maybe because later in the concert.

[@Tomtom-ep1yt]

Lloyd Weber did not write this

[@adiarainfoster]

Her husband had absolutely no hand in this song whatsoever. This song was written by Francesco Sartori (music) and Lucio Quarantotto (lyrics) and was originally called "Con te partirò" and is initially a strictly Italian song. Some of the lyrics were translated to English when Sarah teamed up to sing it with him AFTER it's initial release on HIS album.

[@davidneel8327]

I believe Sarah was the original lead in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Phantom of the Opera on Broadway.

[@VossBC]

She was! They were also married.

[@Cheryl-xn7gv]

Yes she was

[@rosemariediamond5948]

She has the most gorgeous voice as does he. They may not fit into the “operatic “ mold but to me they are both perfection and emotionally moving. Listen to her sing some more

[@teresalehtonen8499]

Exactly! Her voice is incredible beautiful so is Boccelli. Sarah and Antonio Banderas Phanom of the Opera is out of this world amazing! Sarah is phenomenal on it.

[@stevenmiller184]

Brightman's history is musical theater. She uses vocal tricks to portray different characters and their emotions. It gets in the way of pure voice. This ain't Bel Canto. A singer friend who trained under Lotte Lehman would call her voice "Hooty" It is a beautiful voice for the right music. Where it really works is when she takes popular music and adds some juice to it. She sang "My Heart will go on" from "Titanic" (pretentiously in Italian).. but you can hear her transition from "Pop" voice, to "Theater" voice to "Opera" voice in the three verses. It's a neat trick.

[@TheSeeking2know]

Interesting context. Thanks for sharing.

[@teresalehtonen8499]

I LOVE her and Antonio Banderas Phantom of the Opera it is phenomenal!

[@richardturner-td5ty]

Andrea is the best of all time. Anyone that says otherwise is ignorant.

[@TheSeeking2know]

Best "what" of all time?

[@KobeissiArt]

Andrea is over rated. He barely studied. His voice is not developed

[@AlexMcbride-b7j]

Bocelli said her voice melts his heart when he hears her voice.

[@plantlord3266]

love hearing your take on the singers-take your voice over them them anyday

[@oceanchaos1]

THANK YOU so much for this. I've been waiting years to get a clear explanation for why all my opera friends say Bocelli is a fraud, but everyone else loves him. Is it possible that the "opera voice" professional academies train into singers is barking up the wrong tree, going for resonance and vibrato that mostly appeals to other opera singers but not to ordinary humans?

[@TheSeeking2know]

I would assume he's not an operatic singer so he's not using operatic technique. Some of his notes were a few cents flat at the beginning to be hearing. His later recording I heard sounded much stronger.

[@Laura_Martin42]

I have loved this ever since I saw him sing it to elmo on Sesame street!

[@SCVocalStudentReacts]

Thanks for reacting to this beautiful duet.

[@mikenolan8044]

Andrea and Sarah - you know right away this is going to be something! Crossover? Yes but good crossover. Was that a scoop that Sarah did at the end? Good reaction, good analysis. And good Maggie performance along the way! 😍

[@jameshanley6143]

Sarah is iconic singer Diva her concerts will blow you away 💯

[@teresalehtonen8499]

I absolutely love Sarah voice and Maggie would love to hear your evaluation of her and Antonio Banderas Phantom of the Opera. I love it it is amazing

[@brucehanson3496]

Cannot understand why the late great Matt Monro is not appreciated enough. The "Man with the Golden Voice " behind so many film themes ( From Russia With Love, Born Free ) and great songs such as Portrait of my love, Walk Away and One Day. A must listen.

[@dalj4362]

Strange critic considering opera didn't even become popular in the U.S. until the 1950s. It's been in europe since the 17th century. I'll ignore some of your comments 😂

[@stuBdoc]

I like the all-Italian version better. Not even a translation (in Italian, it's Con Te Partiro, I will leave with you, not Time to Say Goodbye, which makes you think it's a breakup song). But Andrea's last note is a killer!! Saw him at the very beginning of his career when he was introduced to the audience at a Celine Dion concert. Blew us away! For another fun duet with Andrea, check him out with Katherine McPhee doing "Somos Novios" ("We're boyfriend/girlfriend" in Spanish; the English version is "It's Impossible").

[@manricobianchini5276]

Andrea Bocelli is incredible! He needs no improvement. None. Enough said

[@stevescooking]

Trying to critique Bocelli’s voice 🤣🤣 I’ve seen it all now

[@TheSeeking2know]

Anyone's voice can be critiqued. No one is immune to it.

[@dalj4362]

Especially when your no where near their level.

[@TristanandIsolt]

What she was saying is legit. Traditionally opera singers do it the way she said.

[@edwardlittle5686]

Love this reaction. I couldn't have imagined anyone could find fault with this performance. But you did - and listening to your explanation I understand. It doesn't mean the performance wasn't beautiful - it was. Finding the stones to criticize Andrea Bocelli for his lack of vibrato in pretty ballsy. And I love how you know all the lyrics even though it's a foreign language (Italian?) This is the best work I've seen from you - keep it up!

[@adorelfn]

Sarah Brightman can do no wrong in my eyes. She’s my absolute favorite.

[@brianwhitish5898]

I cry every time I hear this.

[@TristanandIsolt]

This might be the best of all operatic songs. I was hoping to find some reactions. Is this probably the best duet of it or can anybody recommend some even better ones for me. Please don't tell me Will Farrell.

[@adiarainfoster]

He's actually older here than the one I love most from the late 1990's. I haven't seen this performance. Not used this song being played/sung this slow :) Edit: That closing picture IS from that 1990''s performance. How strange!

[@walidfilan2998]

SARA BRIGHTMAN has a duet song with Iraqi famous singer in Arab world the song is THE WAR IS OVER good combination of course

[@catherinejenkins2284]

I wonder if you have heard Sarah Brightman in Repo: The Genetic Opera? Not to mention so many other big names, Paul Sorvigno, Alexa Vega, Anthony Head, Paris Hilton and more! I have to say one of my favorite Rock Operas ever❤❤❤. Her part as Blind Mags still gives me chills just thinking about it!

[@suefantastic4584]

I understand the need to stay in standard. However, especially with music, interpretation might not be the most correct. I took my elderly father to see Andrea for valentines day in 2019 Tampa. While Sara Brightman was not present, I had the most dynamic, intimate evening ever. Thank you Andrea for a beautiful last evening with my beloved father before he passed. IDC that it was not perfect.. who is? xo

[@Aussiecris214]

Wooow beautiful from Australia more more ❤❤❤

[@richardturner-td5ty]

OMG, this lady questioning Andrea and Sarah brightman. They are classical artists. They are world renowned and you are sitting here questioning them. So they chose success to be heard by millions. People like you may be heard by the hundreds.

[@TheSeeking2know]

Every operatic singer is constantly open to critique. Even the best. It's the nature of their vocal world. It's actually a way to study the voice though it may come across as criticizing or demeaning.

[@JamesJones-zt2yx]

Wow! That was wonderful, and I learn so much from your commentary.

[@maggiereneemusic]

I'm so glad!

[@johnbarton-x3o]

[@RPitch07]

Andrea Bocelli needs to improve? Really? He's not trying to sing opera.

LMAOO bro chill, she has had her training, she’s an expert in the operatic world 😆🤣

[@RPitch07]

@@paulharris9250 but he was not trying to sing opera

[@paulharris9250]

Listening to her talk about how he has the wrong technique is just exhausting. Just listen to the fuking song. College kids always wanna critique because they learned something !!

[@paulharris9250]

@@RPitch07 I know. Read my next comment I was being sarcastic but I couldn’t stand listening to her critique him in this way.

[@KobeissiArt]

He does need training. In this performance he hadn't finish working on his voice. In Italy, where they KNOW opera, there is a big dislike and debate on his voice. He isn't very famous in the classical world. He's more of a pop opera artist. Very over rated and the fact that he is blind just gave him a faster ticket towards stardom

[@BlackRangerMode86]

Between bocelli and Pavarotti they are two if my favorite singers of all time. "Needs to improve??" Seriously?? Hes not trying to be Pavarotti but wether or not he does operatic voice the man is still a legend in the opera word he doesnt need to improve a darn thing

[@michaelgregory1584]

Sarah is, and will be the only Christine daaé in my book. This was my favorite song of hers since phantom of the opera!

[@danrieke9988]

Sarah... greatest female voice ever. Best male operatic voice ever... debatable but my choice would be Caruso.

[@magnuslofgren2441]

I think that Andrea Boccelli is one of the best Tenor singers out there !!! Perhaps he did not want to outsing here, I think that he wanted to give her a fair chanse to shine... Sorry for asking about another artist, but do you think that if Elvis would have wanted to that he could have sing Opera?

[@Millennial_Manc]

Donna Summer nailed this with her dance version and nailed it live too. Sometimes she didn’t go for the big money note on the end though, which was always interesting to see.

[@publicclammer]

Do the "scoop" you sound terrific!

[@garyhollander1]

only question i have is how do you know he didnt have the proper classical training and decided to change his technique later to beter suite classical pop? I understand that your critiquing their voices as a classical singer but both of them where responsible to create and make popular the pop classical genre..

[@johnforsyth7987]

Thank you for your reaction to a favorite song. Please consider the most recent duet that Diana Ankudinova performed with Brandon Stone. Miss Diana has definitely worked on her upper register.

[@catherinejenkins2284]

She is the best selling Saprano of all time. She had to have tricks up her sleeve😅

[@oceanchaos1]

Sapo means frog, which is appropriate for the discussion of her Kermit voice. In fact, rana means frog too.

[@jacobhuston]

You're an amazing but You're a baby in front of them

[@jadehunter1027]

wow this is crazy to say Andrea needs vocal coaching, Julliard has a lot to answer for. American opera has an air of snobbery about it & has a lot of catching up to do... Pavarotti said on first hearing Andrea.. "There was no finer voice" You do know this man has played at Las Scala, He even has his own Theatre Teatro del Silenzio. - The Teatro del Silenzio is an open-air venue surrounded by beautiful Tuscan hillside panoramas. It seats around 12,000 people. Its name (the 'Theatre of Silence') comes from the fact that for the rest of the year it stands empty, the only person to perform there is Bocelli.

[@axcosmo9740]

The best performance of this is their 1997 performance at the Royal Albert Albert

[@starights]

She's a professional singer! (Maybe)?

[@TheSeeking2know]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and reaction. I don't think you were trying to be demeaning, just to share your opinion based on your training. You talked about the strengths of their voices and then the techniques they were using in light of how they're described by their fans and the market.

[@ln5885]

I love your voice! So many talented people and not as famous! Wish you best of luck! I am not a professional but always felt something is off when Andrea sings and you just said what it is! Yes, he is talented and has a beautiful voice but … what you said is not there! I personally love love the voice and tone/timbre of Alessandro Safina! If you could do a video on him one day that would be great! Thank you sooo much! I enjoy listening to you analyze and sing!

[@silverfire01]

I have seen them singing this song on other concerts on youtube and though sang well on this one i thought they sang it better on the other concerts especially at the end of the song. I dont know how early this version is.

I hear opera snobbery here.Her voice blows most Operatic Sopranos out of the water, because its instantly recognised. She has warmth.

[@Progressive_Canadian]

Musical talent isn't based on how snooty you can be.

[@mantisgreen]

As a Brightman fan, I can recognize she's not perfect with her technique, and that your critique isn't mean spirited (like a lot of Brightman critics,) so I appreciate that. I do think her voice is beautiful and her appeal definitely lies within the crossover genre as she's done a lot of different types of music over her career. Thank you for your review :)

[@bertusvanhal8855]

Maybe she sing lower/warmer sound to let understand the voice, by Opera you know what they singing but you don’t understand what they singing, Opera is singing with voice, not with words, more than the half of the Opera lovers listen to the voices because they don’t hear what they sing, that’s probably why the most people don’t listen to Opera, more people listen to Operette or Musicals because they understand what the message is.
