These two have such old Broadway class and charm. They're just perfect together, even way back in their PROMS concerts on BBC.

I feel I've been missing out on these 2 beautiful singer I've only just discovered that Julian can sing. I've seen him in Foils War and Downton Abby but never heard him sing until the Rogers and Hammerstein 70th anniversary, and I haven't stopped looking and listening since. I'm 92 and I've seen and listened to some beautiful voices but these are on my daily Playlist now.❤❤❤❤❤

[@bcastano1105]

What can be said that has already been said. You two have such wonderful voices, If I am having a bad day I put you two on and I can do nothing but smile. Thanks to you both your music touches me deeply .

[@cphbanfb]

You've said it for me !!

[@oldfrend]

can't believe it's been 10 years since they first performed this together at the BBC proms. completely blew me away to see what the pinnacle of musical theater looked and sounded like. they haven't lost an inch of that majesty and power.

[@rosemarymartinez5797]

Such beautiful voices. I so enjoy listening Sierra and Julian's singing together 😊❤. Such talent. ❤❤❤❤

[@rosehazlett1900]

What a dynamic couple whose voices blend to perfection 😊

[@joelgarsten5121]

They were so wonderful together years ago at BBC Proms (best West Side Story balcony scene ever), how good to see and hear them again. They go naturally together.

[@gottfrieddon618]

I was listening to this the other night. Then my 7 yo daughter whom also with me suddenly started to try to sing it as well. She was awed with this song and told me how wonderful this is although she has no clue what this song is all about. That is how great performance combined with great musicality come together to produce such wonderful and heart-warming feeling to whoever listen to it. Thank you so much !!

[@sallybowkett9925]

Love the mutual love they have for each others gift. Thanks for sharing your gifts.

[@angieakeroyd9077]

A beautiful song sung by Sierra and Julian.Such Great voices.

[@remyedwards1097]

I never get tired watching and listening to Julian and Sierra singing together they make me feel young again. I hope they will keep on singing together. They’re so amusing.❤

[@davidowen9882]

I remember watching you two sing this at BBC Proms in 2012 I think it was. Loved it then and love you two now. You sing feel good music and from a wonderful era. Please keep it going!!!

[@janetmcguffey1394]

they bring glorious new life to this iconic classic..thank you Sierra and Julian!!!!!!

[@DavidAsset78]

Is there a concert tour of the US in the making? We can only hope! Or maybe a Broadway show?!

[@antonmarino6568]

Absolutely the best of the best. Wishing them success. Would be a dream to see them in person

[@sallystewart2026]

Love these 2 beautifull voices blend so well together ❤️

[@dr.donchristie7093]

Incomparable music and lyrics by Kern and Hammerstein, beautifully interpreted. How nice to hear competent voices performing this classic!

[@harryboggon8718]

Fabulous I love them 👍👍

[@drj6418]

Admittedly, while I don't know the song, the performance and chemistry between the 2 of you is mesmerizing and simply captivating. Beautiful blending of sweet and creamy voices. Of course Sierra Boggess and Kelli O'Hara are my very favorite Broadway singers/actors both of whom always seem to melt my heart!

[@nolasfamily3913]

@joelreiter I agree with you! Sierra & Julian are wonderful together! "Make Believe" is from the Broadway musical, "Showboat" & was brought to the cinema in1951 starring Kathryn Grayson, Ava Gardner and Howard Keel.

[@robertstevenschumann3705]

We need a revival of THE SECRET GARDEN with Sierra, Julian and Ramin. Please "Theater Gods" make it happen!

[@organboi]

No. They deserve a much better show, musically. Not the SG.

[@nolasfamily3913]

Beautiful, We believe you and Julian should release this show & album on DVD/CD exclusive. Brava!

[@biest]

This album is a masterpiece. I love your both voices so much! I really enjoy it ! Thank you !

[@karenwaterval4615]

I love these two beautiful singers.

[@ricardorodrigo652]

Querida Sierra, es un verdadero privilegio ver tu interpretacion. Tu maravillosa voz y tu sonrisa son un regalo para mi. Gracias

[@19441952]

Stumbled on this by accident. What a great duo. Will look for more vids by this pair. Certainly made my day.

[@TheRealDrJoey]

Check out their appearance at the Proms, sing "People Will Say We're In Love" from Oklahoma; it is one of the finest artistic performances of any kind I have ever seen. In the final chorus Sierra's entire being is given over to her singing. It is a positively stunning performance that I have now watched countless times.

[@vivianf5386]

Lovely! Thank you for sharing! ♥️

[@rixanneh18]

Goosebumps!

[@luizamsalgado]

[@zachwalraven]

Couple of naturally operatic voices that just happen to be doing musical theater at a really high level.

[@markwhitman9029]

Both are excellent and Julian singing better here than in 2012. Sierra of course awesome as usual and some of her tones send shivers. A shame she doesn't do the Met

[@timstafford5079]

Beautiful

[@nondescript2892]

both of their voices have matured somewhat...makes it even better

[@promasoundlabuonamusica1914]

[@peterhenry986]

❤️👍🤩

[@mariejusto423]

🥰🥰🥰

[@mimimayhem]

Sierra looks at Julian lovingly when he sings, but Julian doesn't. I'm missing the connection Sierra and his leading men make during duets.

[@rynday5080]

Only make believe I love you, Only make believe that you love me. Others find peace of mind in pretending - Couldn't you? Couldn't I? Couldn't we? Make believe our lips are blending In a phantom kiss, or two, or three. Might as well make believe I love you, For to tell the truth, I do. The game of just supposing Is the sweetest game I know. Our dreams are more romantic Than the world we see And if the things we dream about Don't happen to be so, That's just an unimportant technicality. Though the cold and brutal fact is You and I have never met, We need not mind convention's P's and Q's. If we put our thoughts in practice We can banish all regret Imagining most anything we choose. We could make believe I love you, We could make believe that you love me Others find peace of mind in pretending, Couldn't you, Couldn't I? Couldn't we? Make believe our lips are blending In a phantom kiss - or two - or three. Might as well make believe I love you, For to tell the truth, I do...
