Sierra Boggess & Michael Ball: All I Ask Of You (2013)

From "Andrew Lloyd Webber: 40 Musical Years", first shown on ITV on March 31, 2013.

[@voulafisentzidis8830]

There's a timbre to Michael's voice which sends shivers down my spine. Glorious.

[@kenschneider-cq3tj]

Thank

[@Meggymiyeko]

Sierra really is the best Christine and every time I’ve seen phantom no one compares to her & Ramin

[@willie8765]

She’s alright,but I feel Sarah Brightman will always be THE Christine.If you catch Sarah’s performance with Michael at the 50th Birthday tribute to ALW at Albert Royal Hall in 1998, she was at her peak and her singing/ performance gave me goosebumps,was amazing.

[@a7xguitar666]

Didnt andrew lloyd webber cite sierra as his ultimate ideal christine?

[@suelutz5364]

And Hadley!

[@phantomv5627]

@@a7xguitar666 Yes which is weird because in earlier interviews he said that Sarah Brightman (HIS EX WIFE) was the inspiration on how he felt Christine was like. I feel like he just said that about Sierra because she was popular and was one of the big actresses that sold out almost all of her shows.

[@ninanelson1665]

she’s good but i don’t like how she sings with an irish accent

[@gabriellasaab2929]

I'd pay big money to see these two play Christine and Raoul in Phantom. I don't care that Michael is 50 and Sierra is 30. They're absolutely perfect together

[@Marylmac]

Apparently he was the 2nd Raoul in POTO???

[@maureengillies9495]

That is lovely I love Michael Ball and Sierra is wonderful

[@Daisy_009]

She played in the play in 2020 😌

[@ianvale9510]

I’d pay big money to see these pair together too absolutely fantastic performances

[@dr.ralphprotano2256]

Sierra Boggess is an amazing talent. My favorite Christine, was lucky to have seen her in Phantom.

[@playa111ism]

Every time I listen to this beautiful duet it is the acting and nuance and gesture that touches me. I have heard many stars sing this beautiful song without the chemistry and tenderness and perfection of Sierra and Michael and inconsequential 20 year age difference

[@gamevids4181]

Oh for goodness sake, that's about as close to perfection as you'd find anywhere. Just wonderful.

[@isabelleo2758]

She's my favorite Christine.

[@user-ub4wc7rb1x]

The way he looks at Christine really seems like they fell in love deeply❤

[@RSKurtz]

Here we have two great singers doing an amazing rendition of "All I Ask of You." Not only does Michael Ball have an amazing voice, he really gets into the lyrics. I love the way he looks at her when she is singing and smiles at her. He makes you believe he is really in love with her. Bravo, Michael Ball. You are a master performer.

[@johnthompson7836]

you would think he actually loved her!

[@CoversByGuys]

@@johnthompson7836 To be fair, it would be harder to act like you're not in love with Sierra Boggess

[@maureengillies9495]

It is wonderful

[@bethsmallwood6972]

ABSOLUTELY 💯 BEAUTIFUL ❤️❤️❤️❤️!!!!

[@TheBlondeBomb1000]

I think Sierra is the most beautiful girl to have played Christine, but more than that and her fantastic voice, I love what she brought to the role. She plays a spirited and dynamic Christine and her acting really draws you in. I've seen some Christine float through their performances as if they'd taken too much Ambien and others that really just roll with a two dimensional version of the character that doesn't really make you feel anything. Sierra is like a unicorn - she's got the voice, the looks and the acting chops. Very rare.

[@avrilhope-hill8638]

Jj

[@mimimayhem]

Ambien 🤣

[@phantomv5627]

Clearly you haven’t see much Christine’s. There’s over 150+ Christine’s WITH videos/audios. Take a look at Monika Sommerova she’s very good at the role also

[@TedCohen1]

Thank you for that wonderful perspective.

[@maureengillies9495]

I love Michael Ball and Sierra is wonderful

[@murielbarker4311]

The thing Michael Ball knows how hard the musical theatre is to get into so he always supports new up and coming new people coming into the profession he really liked singing with her❤️❤️

[@rivkaclifford427]

Superb. I never tire of hearing Michael Ball, and Sierra Boggess' rich voice is so beautiful.

[@JanReasonover]

I just recently found Michael, and I fell in love! He is just marvelous and she’s very much his equal. What a superb duet!

[@MchaelBall]

Thanks for the love and support💙

[@Adirondaque]

That guy can still sing, damnit. It is known.

[@mikeluck4448]

To sing and act with love is a real talent for both. Just a marvelous duet.

[@aluracore1223]

She's just perfect. She's "Andrew's favorite Christine".

[@tomtalker2000]

She was THE BEST Christine. As Ramin was THE BEST phantom hands down. And i'm a singer myself saying this. And have seen Phantom NUMEROUS times with many different musicians performing these two roles. There was just something extra special between Ramin and Sierra.

[@adamhagerty3869]

I'd pay ridiculous money to see Sierra boggess,ramin karemaloo and Michael ball in London production.. absolutely,will be worth the money.

[@victoriaferreira1724]

They are so adorable together you can see the friendship and the admiration they have for each other 🥺🥺🥺

[@lorrainewilson5234]

Sierra has a beautiful voice

[@SairaNadeemzzd]

No more talk of darkness Forget these wide-eyed fears I'm here, nothing can harm you My words will warm and calm you Let me be your freedom Let daylight dry your tears I'm here with you, beside you To guard you and to guide you Say you love me every waking moment Turn my head with talk of summertime Say you need me with you now and always Promise me that all you say is true That's all I ask of you Let me be your shelter Let me be your light You're safe, no one will find you Your fears are far behind you All I want is freedom A world with no more night And you, always beside me To hold me and to hide me Then say you'll share with me One love, one lifetime Let me lead you from your solitude Say you need me with you here beside you Anywhere you go, let me go too Christine, that's all I ask of you Say you'll share with me One love, one lifetime Say the word and I will follow you Share each day with me each night, each morning Say you love me, you know I do Love me, that's all I ask of you Anywhere you go, let me go too Love me, that's all I ask of you

[@markwhitman9029]

I must be going nutty because everytime Sierra begins singing I start crying! That has to be the first sign of a singing genius!

[@mariandogma6466]

Best version Ive heard. Their voices are perfect!

[@Unknown-vo1wh]

It’s a beautiful version. The lady nailed it. However, as Raul, I prefer Patrick Wilson who sang it very beautifully

[@rubini46]

Michaels voice so warm and fruity and Sierras glass shattering clarity proves that you do not need to die to get to Heaven. Sir Andrew,s prediction of Sierra's mega stardom is a racing certainty. I hope she will linger on our sceptered Isle but Sierra needs to travel and conquer the world soon. xxxxxxxxxx

[@MaloPiloto]

Bene detto, Paolo!

[@francesskobieranda7312]

Beautiful in every way. Thank you.

[@youtubefan8459]

I stumbled on this recently and this version is beautiful. I love it when people that duet actually get into the role of the character. It adds so much to the performance.

[@letalayon699]

Wowsie. Amazing voices. I love her voice.

[@swtpaige1004]

My 2 faves!!! *sigh*❤❤❤ Though I watched Sierra as Ariel, I wish I’d seen her as Christine… and I had the privilege to track her down last year when she ran for the NY City Marathon as I volunteered! Love this duet, so heavenly and romantic! 🥰

[@jonclement]

undoubtably the best duet of the last 100 years

[@Nikitis321]

The music of the Angels. It was a privilege to see and hear Michael and Sierra

[@carolecarr5210]

Andrews music always brings the greatest singers to bear. Thanks folks.

[@stephenhanover6376]

I have seen “:Phantom:of……”:both in USA and west end live and on TV, BUT BY FAR Sierra is the best. She hits the notes perfectly. Glad U tube picks it up as I watch many times - still brings tears for the perfect duet

[@rachaeladams8449]

A very beautiful song always brings a smile to my face and a tear to my eyes

Robbie Hagberg was on the way here I attended the lights on my way home now and I will you please phone up and see what I have to do after work now and can do it as a good night too as long time ago I understand us for a second

[@GrandiaKnight]

Oh the feels. Hits me every-time I watch this video. Amazing.

[@randallbosin5262]

Just phenomenal, both of them! This song exists to showcase the possibilities of the human singing voice.

[@donrobbo837]

Gorgeous just gorgeous

[@Jake_Broer]

I had the privilege to see her last Sunday and get her autograph. She is just an amazing actress, vocalist, and just an all-around positive person. But I have to say, the one thing that made me certain that it was her coming from the stage door, is her beautiful red hair. I saw it and said, "Yep, that's Ariel!" We can't forget who she was before Christine, because she might not be Christine if she didn't impress Andrew as Ariel. Truly an amazing and beautiful person and singer. And to be TRULY both of those, is very hard to come by now. I wish her all my luck and success for her future, no matter how far she is.

[@mikeluck4448]

+Jake Broer Congratulations! She is the only star in my 71 years of living that I would like to have a autograph from. And I think she knows what it means to people to meet her.
