Lea Salonga and Simon Bowman- Last Night of the World- Miss Saigon

[@denisewendt8580]

No two people will ever play these roles of Kim and Chris in this Production of Miss Saigon like Lea and Bowman. The perfect matchup. Have heard all the other actors who have played these roles but none compare to these two. They played their parts so brilliantly with such raw passion. They were so young then. Their voices were beautiful together. And listening to them singing 25 years later with the same passion takes your breath away, you actually get transported back in time to what it must have been like in Saigon during the war. Two Amazing Actors and Singers.

Lea and Will Chase = Perfect Kim and Chris

Who needs therapists when I can let these artists serenade me with their voices and music? 🎶 ❤

[@artsandculture26]

The original is always the BEST! Lea and Simon's chemistry is unequaled; they're a perfect pair whose singing & acting evoke sincere feelings of love and tenderness. I can listen to them again and again when their interpretation of the songs was in 1989 and during Lea's 40th anniversary. I hope they can record all of the songs they sang in Miss Saigon, just the two of them as duet.

[@hillmiss1736]

Lea and Will Chase had the most bloodcurdling chemistry as Kim and Chris.

[@t1328]

@@hillmiss1736 I just watched Lea with Will Chase on KZbin singing the same song. Will is good, but his vocal range isn’t as good as Simon’s. He struggles with some of the higher notes, and it’s noticeable in this song. Maybe he was having a bad night

[@hillmiss1736]

@@t1328 Will does not struggle at all with the notes. If anything, he has a better-sounding voice. Simon has a nasal approach to his singing, especially when it gets higher, whereas, Will simply blasts them out very easily. Watch more of his work, be it Rent or Miss Saigon, vocals is never a problem with him - nor his acting, which is miles better than Simon's.

[@mizconti]

I can die now. Their voices are straight from heaven and I don’t even believe in god or heaven. I mean I could listen to this 100x and never ever get bored of it. I’d just cry each time.

I'll be back here after 10 yrs

[@Howdareyou123]

March 2020. Lea Salonga's voice, diction and acting is beyond perfect, crystal clear, magical and excellent and the same for Simon Bowman and you can't help to fall in love with him. And the strong chemistry, connection, respect and comfortability between them makes it perfect. In conclusion, ORIGINAL KIM & CHRIS which is Lea & Simon is still more perfect, awesome and incredible other than Kims and Chris out there! ♥️

Just watched the 25th anniversary concert on Sky Arts. It was fantastic to see these two come on again and reprise this brilliant number

[@meredithchandler73]

May I ask you something? I don't know what Sky Arts is - I'm guessing that's a streaming service available in Europe? (I'm in the USA.) I wanted to check if what's available is the full show of the revival of MISS SAIGON and/or the special concert after the show that included some original cast members. Thanks in advance.

[@SJ.Jane.]

watching this makes me fall in love both of them.

[@kacieremata9014]

There's gotta be a MOVIE of this. They've made LES MISERABLES and THE GREATEST SHOWMAN before. So now hopefully they have MISS SAIGON pretty soon for the MOVIE of it. 🎥 PRINCESS JASMINE and FA MULAN is Lea Salonga. She's the singing voice of the 2 Disney Princesses.

[@patriciamarie4709]

nakakalig naman to! 🤭

[@meredithchandler73]

Interesting that this was taped in November 1991. Lea and Simon opened the West End production in 1989. Lea opened the Broadway show in 1991 and won the Tony Award, so she must have taken a brief leave from Broadway to go to London and take part in this performance. I wonder if Simon Bowman was still in the West End production as well or if they brought him back.

[@amielschotz4982]

Miss Saigon is powerful and dramatic and gives the Puccini opera a gritty realism utterly spellbinding. It requires supremely powerful performances by great actors/singers and has been a deserved world wide success. But the music just does not measure up to the authors’ previous Les Misérables-a masterpiece.
