we always see a very poised and controlled Christine during this number, but she brings a very chaotic, truly wrecked and raw Christine, very fresh take, love her!

[@danielmacerin1518]

Exactly

[@vivaverdi84]

Excellent point!

[@ALittlePriest101]

Not to rain on your parade but like a lot of Christines GO OFF on this song. I know you just wanted to praise Meghan but what she's doing is hardly new (and this in no way is a jab against her, I love her a lot and do think she's a GREAT Christine)

[@teresesanchez4138]

Meghan's interpretation is how I always invisioned this song to be performed. Whenever I perform this song it's more about the story of Christine being at her lowest point then it sounding pretty. I prefer to watch someone be emotional and powerful than a young naive flower.

Terese Sanchez amen, same here sister #phamily

[@bekahburgoon1554]

i got to meet her at the stage door and she was the absolute sweetest person! so kind and humble.

[@ariannam1000]

HER EMOTION!!! NOTHING BUT RESPECT FOR MY CHRISTINE

[@ashleydeangelis2436]

God her soul and acting gives me chills like I truly feel that she means everything she’s singing

[@sk8rgrl1418]

Met her at stage door after a Love Never Dies performance. My goodness, she is one of the nicest people I’ve ever met and a phenomenal actress.

[@austinpearce5442]

Sofie Tovar had they made the phantom movie only now, she would’ve been perfect.

[@sk8rgrl1418]

Austin Pearce I completely agree

[@rosemont2283]

I did too! Same!

[@Waywardwind13]

Met her at the stage door two weeks ago, she is such a sweet person! One of my favorite parts of the show was when John Riddle one-arm lifted and swung her during “All I Ask Of You” lol.

[@marcusgoguanco6921]

Omggggg!!! I watched Meghan during the POTO World Tour here in the Philippines!!! IT WAS SOOOO AMAZING!! I HAD CHILLS ALL OVER MY BODY😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️

[@tazgriffin]

Galing noh? Watched her in SG. Minessage ko siya after watching. Sumagot naman at nagpasalamat :)

[@adotburr6494]

I saw Phantom recently and the cast was so amazing!!! It would be awesome if we could have an updated cast recording with the current stars because I would pay a decent amount of money for that

[@christinedaae7323]

What did you think of Ben Crawford‘s Phantom?

[@DrawnByDragonfly]

I saw her as Christine two days ago! Truly a magical experience!

[@roboat5107]

I just realized I have a similar voice type to hers so... *l e t m y o p e r a b e g i n*

[@monochrome3619]

Same-

imagine having a voice type that is capable of singing , couldn't be me :')

[@cynthiaklenk6313]

Darn it, I'm crying AGAIN!!!!! Brava!!!!!!! Bravisima!!!

[@marisamitchell8611]

I've always loved this song. Now that my dad has died this song is much more relatable & expresses just how much I miss him.

[@kisses4kiki979]

My condolences im sure he's in a better place may he rest

[@marisamitchell8611]

@@kisses4kiki979 Thank you very much.

[@saranotsarah]

she sounds incredible! makes me want to see the show a third time!

[@colleendermott2248]

I sang this song for a performance as a part of my vocal training program and this video made me remember how much I loved singing that song. She’s so talented

[@SuperBlindBowler]

Saw her live once. What a performance! It was mental!

[@melindabevan6667]

Meghan is stunning and THAT VOICE 😍😍😍😍

[@clydegenesisocampocuevas1943]

So proud to have seen her as Christine in POTO world tour 😭😭😭❤❤❤❤

[@tazgriffin]

Watched Phantom of the Opera for the first time in Singapore and she did not disappoint. Glad that she made it to Broadway last year after the international tour. WTG. Meghan! 💙💙💙

[@CarloHofilena]

I cried watching this

[@mike.marziliano24601]

I saw her as Christine on Broadway earlier this year. Excellent performance!

[@JeddtheJedi]

Her Wishing is life-changing. This is my favourite rendition of this song I've ever heard.

[@katielawrence5420]

I love Meghan Picerno.

[@victoriaferreira1724]

Literally chills all over my body right now

[@de-lovely7859]

So blessed that I got the chance to watched her. She's Amazing💕💕💕✨✨

[@mylesm4335]

I saw her on her opening night! Chills! Absolutely phenomenal!

[@Anna-vd4kt]

Met her at the stage door in Singapore. She is so sweet and I loved her performance as well as Jonathan Roxmouths'.

[@Eclecticapricot]

She is amazing!!!

[@hoipolloi1258]

Chills omg chills and tears

[@jklayon7606]

It was truly an honor to watch Ms. Megan as Christine when they toured here in the Philippines last 2019. Such a magical and memorable moment! Hoping her, Jonathan Roxmouth and Matt Leisy visit us again!

[@GsAdventureVlog]

I had the opportunity to hear this live and I am so glad I did!! Greetings from Manila!! Waiting for Meghan to come back for Love Never Dies in the PH 😉🇵🇭

[@clydegenesisocampocuevas1943]

YAAAASSSSS ❤❤❤

[@justinprice7479]

Phenomenal as always!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@MatheusOliveira-sw5zj]

Please more the Phantom of the opera !!!!!!!

[@kelvinvazquez78]

Saw her with Gardar Thor Cortez in Chicago for Love Never Dies. They were amazing. I was in NYC 2 weeks ago (saw Wicked) and almost went to see Phantom of the Opera, but I'd just seen it in Chicago in December with Derrick Davis playing the role of the Phantom. Wanted to see it again cause it was her and Ben Crawford.

[@thespianatheart]

Saw her during the POTO world tour and she was the sweetest at stage door after ❤️

[@prestonnorris9822]

Perfection 👏👏👏💙

[@MatheusOliveira-sw5zj]

Beautiful ❤️♥️❤️👏

I don't like it!! ! But it wasn't my thump down. Still horrible. I love Katie Hall.

[@RebeccaTurner-kf8gx]

I wanted to see her as Maria in west side story movie

[@jacenaylor9537]

Please put beatle juice the musical on here so we can watch it when it gets taken out of the theatre 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@MrNoUsername]

Bravi! bravi! bravissimi! I saw my VERY FIRST live show of Phantom Of The Opera in Singapore 2019 World Tour. To be honest, I wasn't so sure about Meghan in the first act but as the show went on, she's incredible. Although her vibrato is a bit too much... (Bravi was used in the show instead of brava when I saw it)

[@wackymacky6507]

anyone else see the thumbnail and think this was Michael Jackson?

[@MJsAngel107]

No denying Meghan has a powerful and beautiful voice, but I feel like like when she hits the powerful points in the songs it's just to much..too much vibrato and the annunciation is just over the top. Christines voice is meant to have a sweeter subtle flow in it, but knows when to add the raw emotion. I do think Meghan would've been much better casted as Carlotta, her voice is literally perfect for it

[@gabrielseah6915]

She's an opera singer after all. You can hear it in the style

[@MJsAngel107]

@@gabrielseah6915 oh definitely, but I just think that she wasn't the best pick for Christine

[@melissam597]

Gabriel Seah some opera singers have soft and light voices

[@cassiby1593]

I totally agree. My favourite Christine to this day is still Sierra Boggess

[@meg4322]

Ngl i feel like part of the reason it seems that way is because of the lack of lighting and set, as well as the piano obviously not being the same instrumentals as in the show

[@JTPMalavet]

She resembles a bit like Ruth Wilson.

[@lopsideddog7925]

Way too mature for Christine

[@karastub1278]

She does sound a bit breathy

[@anastapatsak]

Yes she does... And is also a bit too nasal at times, which can sound a little annoying

[@AlyssaGTV]

She's good although there are some flats because of her vibrato. But for me, Sierra Boggess is still the best Christine.

[@mcwyman7928]

Sierra goes sharp with her vibrato quite a bit

[@Isabella-gv1dp]

Her version sounds too harsh in my opinion. I prefer Sierra Boggess personally. I'm sure Meghan is a very sweet person but I don't care for her Christine.

[@JTPMalavet]

Harsh? That’s how my teacher would push that sound for me instead of trying to sound like Sierra’s which I would dare to!

[@tiggy422]

Sierra is still the best for me too.

[@tazgriffin]

Meghan sounds better live. I'm a Sierra fan too :)

[@laceyh]

I think the thing I like about Meghan is that she is the only Christine I have ever heard who conceivably sounds like she could sing Opera. Which is probably because she comes from and Opera background! I saw her live and it was truly incredible. Like, I've seen this show so many times but I had chills the whole time. I love Sierra too, though. I've never had the opportunity to see her live but I hope to one day!

[@helenasouza9196]

Yeah, I... I... Didn't like it. I wanted to. Don't get me wrong. Stunning actress, stunning voice... BUT not only she looks too old to be the young and naive Christine in POTO (for LND she's probably perfect), it doesn't help she sounds kinda harsh from the start. The way I perceive it, it should begin soft and then, near the "why can the past just die" would be an appropriate moment to just put some raw emotions and maybe be a bit more aggressive.

[@NickofMusic]

Id love like 40 percent less vibrato

[@askforabigail9616]

Yeah. I don’t really like her interpretation. It seems too aggressive and mature for Christine. The character is sweet and naive and this song is more of an ode to her father and her past. This just seems really angry.

[@kaceyrandall6598]

Christine has been played the same way for decades, I think it's very refreshing!

[@verbalassassin5737]

Nobody will top Sierra Boggess...EVER.

[@agolden999]

michael jackson is back

[@ChewVurse]

That ain’t it chief

[@miguelbuela5552]

Not to be mean, but she look like Michael Jackson
