Sierra Boggess - "Think of Me" (French)

[@da96103]

Conductor: My actual dream was to be a tenor.

[@sorestedhebytheTumtumtree]

[@williamheyman5439]

Of course. The tenor gets the girl. Who is always the soprano. I was a basso profundo. You remember me.? Always dressed in black. Always the villain. Always stabbed in the third act, by the tenor, of course. It was fixed. The tenor always wins. I should get rid of this goatee. Always a dead giveaway.

[@Glee73]

I only found out recently that she was actually going to do the show in French in Paris many years ago. The whole show was ready to go, she had learnt it entirely in French, but the show was sadly cancelled due to a fire at the theatre. The same one the phantom story is based on.

[@bitty4994]

I heard about this! Kind of a coincidence right?

[@da96103]

Phantom could not bear to see Christine again and so he burnt down the theatre.

[@kareaux]

I was gonna be in France around the same time she would be doing the show and I was so gutted for her and the whole cast and crew when the news broke about the fire. That was super sad. Luckily the theatre got back on its feet and reopened a few months later with Grease :) It wasn't the same theatre though! I think Phantom is based on the Opera National and the theatre was the Mogador. Still an eerie coincidence though.

[@laceyh]

It wasn't the same theater that the book is based on. The Mogador wasn't founded until after Gaston Leroux wrote the novel. The novel incorporates some rumors about the Palais Garnier and the Garnier is the hall in question in the novel, although the name is changed for the musical to the Opera Populaire. A chandelier broke there and killed a concierge in 1896, and some construction during Leroux's lifetime led to an urban legend that it was built over a lake due to a subterranean water tank accessible through the building, which are a couple of things that made it in one form or another into the novel and then ALW's show. But anyhow, still sort of a wild coincidence that a show which is largely about antics in a theatre got cancelled because of such an unfortunate incident.

[@GlompErik]

I was meant to go to that show :(

[@lightening1296]

The conductor: I've waited for this moment all my life…

[@KorenRedLotus]

This my friends, is the best proof in existence that when you come to see a musical, you don't only enjoy the actors and singers, but also the orchestra.

[@count7340]

I always did. When I saw my first concert, I was amazed how high quality the performance was, just like the vinyl I'd played. I'd seen live bands, and they always sounded different, but an orchestra ... amazing.

Is it me or does Sierra's voice sound maturer these days?

[@jillsison9747]

Neysa Waltz because of aging, duh.

[@AnaxErik4ever]

An old voice teacher of mine said the voice changes and grows in adulthood as well, not just during puberty.

[@IAmNotNicolex]

The lower key kind of changes how she sings it.

[@josephfilm73]

They're doing a better job recording. Some of the earlier stuff, the recording was less professionally done. Listen to some of the BBC proms pieces (where they use professionals who know how to record) and then other pieces of the same year, and you hear what I'm talking about. Around 2005 the industry was still using some analog on tape (esp for live recording), but was starting to switch over to all digital. The digital sound wasn't so good. 10 years later, things have improved. I worked for Yamaha Music Corp. Listen to some of Yo Yo Ma's recordings (where they used reel to reel quarter and half inch tape machines) and you'll really hear a difference--even converted from analog to digital.

Here are the French lyrics...for those who are wondering😁 C'est temps lointains, qui berçaient nos matins. Reviendront te chercher parfois. S'ils te trouvent alors,mon amour,souviens toi de moi... Souviens-toi des fleurs de notre été ne laisse pas les regrets l'emporter... Souviens toi quand je t'attendais muette et résignée.imagine toi tous les pour fournis pour t'oublier! Souviens toi je t'en prie souviens toi,où que tu sois,quoiqu'il advienne! Il n'y aura jamais un jour sans que je ne m'en souvienne!!

Sierra's French is very good, and so is the translation (I had feared it would not be, based on previous experience. Mais je suis rassurée).

I’ve always wondered why only Madame Giry has a French accent in the musical. Like, it’s in France, so everyone is basically supposed to speak French (vicomte de Chagny doesn’t really sound English) but ONLY Madame Giry has the accent. Not even her daughter who was born and raised in Paris. Either everyone should have it or no one at all but not just one character because “oh, damn we forgot to specify it’s in France”. Yes I’m French and yes I feel cheated 😂
