John Owen Jones and Sierra Boggess - The Phantom of the Opera (Olivier Awards 2011)

[@connorjgriffiths]

The reason I love JOJ is because he has way more variation in the colour/intonation of his voice. Like, his Music of the Night is SO smooth and seductive it's ridiculous.

[@DragonRebelRose]

I absolutely love how John pushes himself through the mist at 3:24, it adds to the Phantom's ghostly nature.

[@baileyspurr908]

RIGHT! THAT WAS SO COOL!!

[@Mr-tu4cj]

His movements are incredible, that's part of why I love him and Crawford.

[@smolb0i270]

Ramin's phantom voice may have hit me in an emotional level but holy shit John Owen-Jones has a really really powerful one

[@elizabetesantiago8051]

São meus fantasmas favoritos!! Sensacionais, ambos!!

[@haianhpham3961]

Agreed. Ramin's voice sounds like warm fire, resonating throughout with emotions. He performs the best The Music of the Night, and John performs the best Phantom of The Opera.

[@william-jaymonetti4830]

Nobody hits that last final note like Sierra. I remember growing up hearing so many actresses singing this and I always thought "God that last note is high" then Sierra comes along and shatters my tv screen.... I thought I've heard it all lmao.

[@user-ny2el4wb8n]

Уникальнейшая величайшая мелодия песни призрак оперы уникальное пение певцов спасибо

[@scottishphotographer]

Though famously (or infamously, depending g on your point of view regarding live theatre) all of the vocals on 'The Phantom of the Opera' scene are pre-recorded.

[@hitokage4]

"It's me they hear..." Oh. Oh how he said that gave me shivers. The perfect seduction, power, and control the Phantom should have.

[@Lord_Trigon]

Couldn't have described it better myself

[@phoebeyap5221]

I chose JOJ

[@karenpinson759]

I love John's acting in this scene. Every gesture and movement accentuates the music the dialogue and music. Amazing. He brings it aluve. Add in Sierra with their combined voices, and the scene is perfect.

[@sundus928]

Your description perfectly describes Anthony Warlow. He and JOJ are two of my favourites.

[@hansvonessen6259]

I agree.

[@hansvonessen6259]

I agree with you Karen.

[@AH-qu4yh]

I always come back -JOJ has the perfect voice for the Phantom ❤ if I only could experience this live, I would fly anywhere 🥺

[@teresabpblesa2638]

I did in 2010. When I tell you I could not stop crying everytime he sang... I could feel his voice in every cell of my body, It was trutly a once in a Life time

[@h.huffen-puff4105]

In addition to his voice, this guy's hands...fascinate me.

[@holyalpaca750]

I know right? His movements are so smooth and captivating...

[@marandas]

His hands are fair, soft and he moves gracefully, very sexy to me.

[@BroadwayBabyAA]

So much expressed in those hands. Grace, sensuality, power...ooooof.

[@blancespresso]

JOJ has a warm sound and a more gentle way to possess. It is a great contrast to Ramin's more dark and enchanting way. Both make Phantom alive to us

[@oblongreceptionist8486]

Have seen brilliant John Owen Jones several times as the Phantom and he was amazing, easily the best I have ever seen..

[@loriodo4502]

Amazing performance BUT there will never be another Sarah and Michael!!!

[@leilanihanaike]

It seems like she was holding back on her voice here. If you watch the 25th you know she can belt out those notes

[@rchumphries13]

***** if you have ever seen Ramin Karimloo sing then you have heard belting

[@dannyashforth6040]

Ramin is shit! John owen jones and Earl Carpenter are much better!

[@rchumphries13]

Danny Ashforth whoa dude seriously they are all great I just prefer Ramin.

[@dannyashforth6040]

Ramin is powerful but isn't as good on softer notes... Also he doesn't have as !much feeling in his performance

[@rchumphries13]

Danny Ashforth okay so you must be thinking of Gerard Butler because Ramin hits the softer perfectly he puts a lot of feeling in his performances. I highly doubt ALW would've hand-picked him to play Phantom in 25th anniversary if he didn't put feeling in his performance or wasn't hitting the softer notes right.

[@TeddyHavoc]

I LOVE the way he sings "And though you tuuurn from me..." So much emotion in that line. It's hearbreaking♡♡♡♡

[@codymays9943]

I think John is among the more talented and versatile actors in this role... Hell of a pair of lungs.

[@patriciaharman2212]

John is my favorite singer, his voice is so awesome. All of his albums are perfection.

[@carlyregehr7966]

This is the first on-stage Phantom I’ve seen that exudes sensuality, and I’m not mad about it. Very sexy Phantom. JOJ knows how to pull it off well.

[@shirokisasaki3233]

JOJ is literally the phantom with the best voice,every time he opened his mouth,I got chills.

[@a.katherinesuetterlin3028]

[@lilsisasu]

I like both, but I honesty have to say I prefer Ramin over JOJ, though I definitely wouldn't mind seeing either!

[@TheMsiaddict]

Matt Cammelle was better than them. It's pity that he was only standby.

[@Robert-li4cr]

There are no words that can complement Sierra boggess accurately. Her voice says it all she is the real Christine. Magical!

[@iamtheassassinofjoy]

Michael Crawford is forever my favorite Phantom - the almost angelic quality of his tenor coupled with the forboding and tragedy he brought to his performance - the stuff of magic. But JOJ - just sensational. The moment he belts out "Sing once again with meeee" - left me completely mesmerized. Fucking magnificent, and this is just a small slice of a great show. What a treat it would be to see him perform it from start to finish.

[@nuttybex]

This. No one, like NO ONE compares to Michael and his performance as the phantom. He visualised the character from the first time ALW played him the Overture, he was obsessed with the movement and use of his hands to convey the Phantoms torment and vocally he absolutely nailed every song and the emotions give me goosebumps

[@iamtheassassinofjoy]

​@Bex Lane Crawford is absolutely exquisite. Homie won that Tony for a reason. He performed "Phantom Of the Opera" with a female singer about a decade ago in a televised performance - his presence during that performance was incredible. He was in a simple black suit, no makeup or anything of course, but he embodied the Phantom with every thread of his soul, so fantastic. I've always loved his Phantom, and his will always be my favorite, but occasionally there's that particular performer that makes you just kind of pause in awe. John Owen is 100% that dude. Just amazing.

[@The_Razors_Edge]

I can’t get enough of this!! Breathtaking from both!

[@Merthurmad]

I saw John Owen Jones as the Phantom last Thursday at Her Magesty's Theatre and he was awesome!! The way he licks his lip like that is just so hot.

[@crispyy.roseeMUA]

John Owen Jones has been the single only person I have EVER thought fit the role vocally as perfect as Michael Crawford himself. Absolutely incredible.

[@seashell_aphrodite]

John Owen Jones is absolutely AMAZING! He has a fantastic voice and is a great phantom - one of the greatest! PLUS he is the nicest, most funny person ever when you meet him :)

[@justoneguy2487]

I will always love Crawford Wilkinson put the Phantom in Phantom of the Opera Panaro's acting is unmatched Ramin's emotional delivery is just pure rawness although his phans are a bit much. But vocally, JOJ is better than all of them. His range is out of this world not to mention he is in complete control of his entire performance and his voice itself is out of this world.

I'm SO happy John Owen Jones is now Phantom on the west end! he is my favourite along with Ramin, and it was incredible to see him with celinde and the rest of the new west end cast last week!!

[@kansha2301]

I like JOJ as the phantom more (despite how dreamy and electric Ramin is ) because this is essentially a story of a young girl beguiled/groomed by an older gentleman (which JOJ pulls like boss). The apparent age difference has be there for the story to have that kick in the stomached!

[@Equus21]

JOJ is my favorite Phantom I think. His movements, his deep voice. Embodies the character for me.

[@Tymala1]

And yet he played the phantom and Jean Valjean in his 20s, 30s, and 40s on and off. You can see videos of baby JOJ and mature JOJ.

[@nyxee55]

Johns voice is amazing and fits so well with the character. I will admit Ramins acting is a little better but John definitely has stronger vocal abilities.

[@darakenny5408]

JoJ has a more powerful voice while Ramin has a more emotional voice. Colm Wilkinson could combine both but not do either as well on there own

[@ixaaicactus]

Wooow!! she looks amazing!! They were both perfect!!

[@jaysalvoro9834]

Fun Fact: John Owen-Jones was considered to be The Phantom in “The Phantom of the Opera Live at the Royal Albert Hall” but Ramin was chosen because of his chemistry with Sierra. {IMO, that’s bullshit because JOJ is a way better Phantom tbh. But chemistry is important. But still, I still feel JOJ is better.}

[@POTOGURU25]

john way better than ramin,he should have got the 25ht along side gina beck but ramin and sierra are webbers top of the class types lol

[@cheetahinireland18]

I'd believe that, even though I don't know if it's true or not lol. JOJ has the BEST voice, honestly. If I had to imagine the perfect male singing voice, his would be it. Ramin's voice is edgier and less trained. But Ramin and Sierra have the best chemistry of any Phantom/Christine pairing I've ever seen. And I've seen a lot of them...I think they play off each other very well when they're acting, to the point where they can anticipate each other.

[@AT-nq1rp]

Ramin is way better! Their chemistry is undeniable and I find his voice more appealing and just better in general :/

[@AT-nq1rp]

@@chazj2425 Finally! Ramin was just getting bashed in here even though he’s the more believable actor. Sierra is simply irreplaceable, and her with Ramin in POTO 25th Anniversary is far superior than JOJ with her IMO. I just think Ramin’s voice is better too, even if it is “edgier and untrained”, which I didn’t think so. :/

[@chazj2425]

@@AT-nq1rp yes!! I LOVE Ramin’s voice too, he is my favourite. I personally love that he doesn’t have that perfectly trained sound, just pure amazing raw talent which is even more of a testament to him. Sierra is perfection just like Ramin so it’s a match made in heaven 🤷‍♀️ can’t get any better then that duo. They are the only ones that are believable for me, and Ramin’s portrayal brings me to tears. Cannot believe so many people hate on him 🤣. Not only that but he is such a wonderful person in real life, just an all around amazing talent and person 🤷‍♀️

[@allysa189]

This, for me, is Sierra's best rendition of the high notes...

[@cheetahinireland18]

I totally agree with you. And I think it's because it's live, and her vibrato sounds just perfect here. It almost makes me wish that she sang it live all the time...if I didn't know how hard that would be on her voice lol

[@allysa189]

I also think that this is probably one of her first performances of Phantom of the Opera since in 2011, she's actually doing Love Never Dies... idk... I like her vibrato here, it's FULLer and less... screechy? im not sure...

This is a brilliant performance. John Owen Jones' voice is a PERFECT fit for the Phantom. Sierra here really impressed me with her voice, it was much softer then what I've heard. I almost felt like she was holding back. However, still amazing. These two work so well together, I love it!

[@cheetahinireland18]

I don't know why everybody is saying that Sierra sounds sick. She sounds perfectly normal to me. Obviously, the click track that they used at RAH is going to sound a lot more powerful and louder than what her mic would pick up here singing live. This performance is a confirmed live one. And I thought she nailed the E6... the number of Christines that have actually been confirmed to have sung that E6 live are very few, though they obviously have to be able to hit it somewhere. But I guess the ones that become Carlottas have the least trouble with it... I think I love JOJ's voice more than any other man's I have ever heard. He's really excellent vocally. And I liked the lip-licking he did lol

[@mimicarey2391]

[@sxyghost8266]

The final note is confirmed to be live? It look like it is to me, but it's always a bit hard to tell. I actually prefer this performance over the 25th. I think her pronunciation is less strange here.

[@cheetahinireland18]

@@sxyghost8266 I agree with your preference too. And yes, this is confirmed live and it's the only performance off the top of my head where I know of any Christine singing it live. We can guess that it has at other times, of course. And yes haha, it is pretty hard to tell without confirmation, but most of the time, Sierra's click track specifically sounds pretty obvious to me. And it's probably because we've heard it so much!

[@chelles4763]

This is the first time I am watching JOJ and Sierra sing this together. Wow. Couldn’t really tell from the 25th Ann performances but JOJ is a super hot POTO! Here's why I say so : 0:43 ahhh the hand … fingers spread … so sexy. 1:13 the way his hands jerked the oar … this may need a R Rating! And though you tuuuuuuuurrn from me - wow that was probably the most sexy I have heard it sung, powerful one second ago and suddenly the emotion drops to dang it sexy! Now we all know what his bedroom voice sounds like! And at 1:32, the way he thrust out his hands so commandingly, yes yes I will take your hands, say no more! 1:44, the way he stiffens his back … that was the sound of me fainting. 1:58, I know we all (mostly) ship Rierra but the hands, the hands of JOJ as he touches her face … if this performance had continued, Christine might have gone off with POTO instead of Raoul haha. And the way he takes off his cloak … whoaaaaa don’t stop, don’t stop! At 2:45, JOJ does that clenching of his fist. Saw Ramin do that too but the way Ramin did it, I must say, it was more sexy because his hand went lower Sierra’s body and then he clenched his fist and pulled it up. I had to pause to get a very icy glass of water to drink and am still in therapy over it! After JOJ licks his lip (I can’t talk about it), he runs his hand down her arm as in actual touching. I don’t remember seeing Ramin do that but I could be wrong. 3:04, the way he stands … very predatory and so very sexy if you like the powerful kind of man … like like!! And his hands, his hands the entire “Sing, sing for me” segment … Definitely a very sexy POTO in case I wasn’t clear earlier haha. Comparing this performance to the Classic Brit Awards 2012 though, Sierra here was pretty passive compared to how she seemed to almost pursue Ramin in that performance (actions wise). Though … I am very confused. This is the year of the 25th Ann performance? But it would seem then that in a very short space of time JOJ put on so much weight, he was almost double in size! hmmm

[@alyssasalada4122]

I swear, you just read my mind and articulated each and every one of my thoughts.... O.o

[@anneahlefeld1989]

I was wondering about that too. But then I thought maybe he was at his normal walking around wait at the 25th at the RAH? Like he'd lost weight for this show?

[@cookiesncream994]

I think John Owen Jones' voice fits the character of the phantom better, but I think Ramin is the better actor (not to mention his chemistry with Sierra is haaaht)

[@lifeaccordingtome4283]

#rierra lol

[@johnjungkook2721]

I disagree about the voice. JOJ's voice is beautiful but much more traditional. He sounds like any romantic gentleman in musical theatre. Ramin's voice has much more vocal "ping", which makes him seem more powerful, and his voice is much more unique, which makes him more mysterious.
