[@TheMrplayitsafe]

43 is pretty good though. I hope I can have that.

[@celestialunique9348]

I cried while singing. It was too beautiful even though I was too sharp or too flat a few times. her voice was instantly bringing out my emotions that I have kept in. She's such a talented singer.

[@mayrabarrios2876]

Me to 😭😭

[@sketcherwonders2766]

I'm 13 and I honestly just fell in love with musicals and orchestra music by the phantom of the opera!! Thank you go leading me to a new interest!!

[@katg3024]

Me to! And the movie is awesome!

[@KatieBeij]

Me, too. I'm actually singing this song for a voice recital! I get to have a costume and everything!

[@margaretsadler422]

13? pfft… for me it was 11!

[@carissakasper8140]

Maggie Sadler I fell in love with the music at 12 and finally watched the movie at 14. My parents wanted me to play sports, so they isolated me from classical and jazz music.

[@KatieBeij]

Carry On wow..... that sucks.....

[@fantacylandfilms]

This song is so beautiful because its about moving on after tragedy, and thats an incredibly hard and brave thing to do.

[@iceluvndiva21]

Something Christine has to do. And she knows it

[@abigailhurst4081]

Too many years, fighting back tears....why can't the past just die?

[@leemeilin1839]

No... it shouldn't. This is a previous part of me that i will not let go even though it hurts me so because... that's a memory of you and I that can never be remaked

[@Deathangel12ish]

This is how I feel for my grandparents. I miss and love you guys, always kept the family together I will never forget you two

[@princeismael4204]

May God bless them

[@pamgilman5781]

[@ryanlove35]

[@animetrash-lf7lg]

The Feels of Phantom of the Opera are coming back.... oh god

[@iceluvndiva21]

*hands you the tissues*

[@zalia5028]

I lost one of my best friends last week to osteosarcoma (a type of childhood cancer) and this was one of her favorite movies. Tbh I'm sobbing

[@sodapap4128]

[@sodapap4128]

Zalia Ancheta I know how it feels. But with animals

[@bolindai9327]

I have never lost anyone in any shape or form but whenever I sing it I always start crying.... This musical is incredible.

[@akirayuki6140]

A few months ago I decided to try out for my high school's play for this year, The Addams Family. It's my junior year, so I wanted to do something more than just marching band. In the tryouts, we have to sing a song from a Broadway musical. My first thought was Phantom of the Opera. I wasn't sure which song to pick at first (because they are all glorious) and my best friend suggested this song because it isn't one of the most memorable from the play. THIS VIDEO was the video I searched up and practiced with for a whole month in preparation for my audition. After an issue of stage fright, I was finally able to get up there and sing, and I did surprisingly fantastical. I didn't get a part, unfortunately, but I just wanted to say THANK YOU SO MUCH because this video was my saving grace for those auditions. Thanks! :)

[@roxyrebel15]

Man. Seeing the lyrics really makes this song more meaningful. Beautiful song.

[@carissakasper8140]

I actually didn't like this song until I heard a trumpet play it. I looked up the lyrics, and it's one of my favorites.

[@Necrobatix]

Everyone's like "For my parents/grandparents/friends, etc." and I'm here wishing a cat that wasn't even mine was still alive....What is my life?

[@lialovesfood4479]

right

[@maxthebat_]

I have no problem with that. my cat ran away a while ago, and I still miss him

[@Zephariah]

+Liv Snape someone with feelings. :)

[@rachelnielsen6399]

It's fine once my sister cried at a funeral for my friend's grandma even though she didn't even know her grandma ,we were just there to comfort her family and pray for them and she cried more than the family did .

[@pamgilman5781]

Lukas the Lucario you are a beautiful soul

[@showyface]

This song means do much to me. My wife, best friend, soul mate, my world of 30 years, walked out of my life 2 years ago without any explanation. I have not heard from her since then. I would have died for her, but I guess it was not enough. I get that funny feeling and try not to cry when I hear this. We saw the Phantom 8 times together. All I can say is "Wishing You Were Here Again".

[@mandipasquarello2884]

Justin Case I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope everything gets better. My sister sings this song all the time it makes me cry when I hear the song, even though I try not to

[@showyface]

Mandi Pasquarello Thank you for your kind comment. May God bless you. They tell me time heals, but time is long in coming.

[@princeismael4204]

God is always there to help us and like they say that every thing happens for good maybe she wasn't your true love but the day you find your true love all of your problems will disappear stay happy😀🌷💓

[@showyface]

Thank you for your comment. When God is ready, I believe He will answer my prayer and that special gift will be given to me. I only hope He dose have time to answer with His busy schedule. I do BELIEVE AND TRUST in HIM and know He is there. He Hears, He Listens and when He is ready, He will answer. Thank you once again.

[@princeismael4204]

I am sure God will answer your prayer and that day will get a lot of happiness for know stay happy and enjoy life is not always this bad😇

[@sonnetmyers6044]

I lost my dad a few years back then I lost my stepdad a few years back and they were all I could think about when I listened to this... I miss them so much

[@zoebiancofiore7112]

me too sonnet, you are not alone RIP dad

[@TheNickJGirlfriend1]

My grandpa died 7 years ago last night from cancer. This song is so special to me. For one, my grandpa loved musicals and this was the one that he got to see live and that stole his heart. Plus the words are straight from my heart as if I myself wrote them this is what I would say.

[@heatherlightell]

RIP to my darling husband on my second Valentine's day without him.

[@chloearendt9618]

I'm so sorry.

[@jameslittle2032]

So sorry to hear that

[@user-gj6ne4tu7p]

Rest in peace

[@stefanlunte54]

play this at my funeral

[@andresortiz6706]

This is simply beautiful, I can't correctly describe what I felt the first time I listened to this song. God!, I can't stop watching this!

[@lizziejohnson9630]

I can't sing this without crying

[@m.nicole7996]

Neither can I

[@raykunstek1553]

The song that makes me cry everytime I hear it is Danny Boy. I sang it for choir in 8th grade right after my cat died I had for 10+yrs. He died 4 days after my 15th b-day😭😔

[@TheStarwarsgirl13]

God, this song makes me cry every time I hear it.

[@myvictoryismine1]

My mother's friend's husband died of cancer. Our friends are like family to us. I went to his funeral. I almost had to leave because I was so sad. I never saw any of his children because they were all in their room crying. :'(

[@stardreamwriter]

I went to New York to the Majestic for our schools junior trip we watched Phantom of the Opera. I thought I would hate it or be bored. Dear god was I wrong. If you only ever get one chance to see a Broadway musical make it this one

[@angelinapatchett7651]

This movie came out when I was 4 and I remember watching it almost everyday of my life. It was my favorite movie and I'd watch it so much that I'd sing along to the songs, knowing a few of the words.. lol I still love this movie!!

[@hemidas]

Someone said that cry is good for your soul, helps you get relieved from negative energy. This song proves that is completely true.

[@mikesosa1146]

Thanks so much Jenna for the lyrics. This song is beyond outrageously beautiful.

[@elizabeththomas4345]

Love this song

[@benli1243]

This song almost makes me cry! It's very touch,man!

[@user-le1zx5bp9p]

Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again You were once my one companion…you were all that mattered… 你曾是我的一個同伴，你曾是我最重要的人… You were once a friend and father - then my world was shattered… 你曾是朋友兼父親，後來我的世界粉碎瓦解了… Wishing you were somehow here again…wishing you were somehow near… 但願你如往昔身在此處，但願你如往常就在身邊， Sometimes it seemed, if I just dreamed, somehow you would be here… 彷彿只要我夢想，你就會出現在此地…. Wishing I could here your voice again…knowing that I never would… 但願我能再次聽到你的聲音，雖然明知絕不可能… Dreaming of you won't help me to do all that you dreamed I could… 即使不斷夢著你，也無法幫助我達成你期望我做到的事…. Passing bells and sculpted angels, cold and monumental, 消逝的鐘聲與天使雕像，冰冷且不滅的， seem, for you, the wrong companions -you were warm and gentle ... 你似乎是找錯同伴了，你曾是如此溫和而親切… Too many years fighting back tears…why can't the past just die…? 許多年來擊退淚水，為何往事不能就此逝去？ Wishing you were somehow here again…knowing we must say goodbye… 但願你如往昔身在此處，明知我們必須道別， Try to forgive…teach me to live…give me the strength to try 試著原諒，教導我生活，給我力量去嘗試… No more memories, no more silent tears… 不再沉緬回憶，不再暗自落淚， No more gazing across the wasted years…Help me say goodbye 不再凝視荒廢的時光…幫助我道別吧…

[@thescarletgamer8735]

I grew up with this musical, and this song basically discribes some of my life. When my grandfather died and when my uncle died I went to this song. I LOVE THIS MUSICAL.

[@mandipasquarello2884]

TheScarletGamer Me 2 Grew up with this musical I absoutley love it and listen to the songs every day :D and I'm so sorry bout your grandfather and your uncle

[@beautyblueblossom]

I'm getting voice lessons and my song is this. It's coming along nicely.

[@indialavoyce95]

I played the instrumental of this on piano. The whole room of people were in tears. This one and My Heart Will Go On gets them everytime.

[@food603]

I miss you daddy. You're little girl is okay, there's no reason to be worried. I love you.

[@emilyward2301]

This song is absolutely beautiful and heart wrenching

[@MissAthenaGirl]

This makes me think of my nanny from back when I was younger. She was the mother of a family friend; her name was Enelda, though we kids called her 'Bita 'Da. Her 1st anniversary of her death is today, I believe. Honestly, if anyone deserves heaven, it's her. She was so sweet and loving and never was selfish. She was also the person responsible for our early exposure to Spanish. We all miss you, Abuelita Enelda! RIP.

[@Annabug7productionz]

I love the Emmy Rossum version! She has such a gentle, yet powerful voice, and it's just so beautiful.

[@highlyhp]

You were so loved, Kirsten, and still are.

[@Jinxprincess13]

I think I have to sing this for an audition. I know it's a song from Phantom of the Opera (my teacher chose the songs for us depending on what she felt suited our voices) and this is the only female solo I found so... It sounds kind of difficult aah...like, I can hit the high notes no problem but it is a teensy bit jumpy along the scales at times, to my ear at least, though I've only listened it through once in my life...welp, here's hoping it goes right! (And that this is the one I'm singing, I quite like it)

[@gingerg8464]

+Jinxprincess13 How was your audition?

[@Jinxprincess13]

ginger gittelson I'll tell you after I've done it. Thankfully I have a long time to prepare. Not sure how long one normally has to prepare, but still...

[@maxthebat_]

Did you do your audition yet?

[@Jinxprincess13]

Yeah...could have been better. I was ill and my stomach hurt so much that having to do the dance part of the audition was hell. (and the teacher was pissed off that I used a song he hadn't chosen to dance to) but the singing portion went well! I was really loud...but the important thing is I didn't screw up! (my backing track did though, it looped at the end and I couldn't find a track that had music over the last line so the intro was playing to the last line and god damn it why?)

[@maxthebat_]

Jinxprincess13 I'm sorry...

[@sukmandragon]

How beautiful and touching! Every time I hear this I just feel like crying... Thank you so much for sharing!

[@georgiacobley3393]

For my nana :( love her very much. She was like my second mum

[@jnk5790]

Same also my Grandpa.

[@hayleyrose1438]

This is one of my favorite Phantom songs. I can relate to it so much since I lost my father too. But I love the message it sends also

[@La_LaChan]

I had no idea where my grandmother was for years, the last time I ever saw her she was incoherent, after years of not seeing her, not knowing where she was and not knowing what her physical state was until it was too late, wishing I at least said goodbye, I couldn’t bring myself to do it....this song hits me, wishing I could sing to her.

[@luizswim1]

This film is just perfect ! The performances are just awesome.

[@randaljbatty]

One of the best scenes in the entire movie. Very emotional material.

[@2ndLtPlank]

Goodbye Raggedy man I love you.....

[@TheRebalAngel]

Oh my Gallifrey, That's was what I was thinking. -goes and cries in a corner-

[@2ndLtPlank]

***** It just fits..... *goes to the corner as well and cries*

[@TheRebalAngel]

Well at least I have company.

[@2ndLtPlank]

yes

[@aa13ok]

Why did you do that?!?! That part of the episode almost made me cry. Yes it works but now I am even sadder.

[@lorenaortiz4218]

i read the comments and every one wrote about their dead family but with this song i just remembered Doctor Who show

[@kailakruger7685]

This is one of the songs that got me playing my viola again.

[@breeherman4457]

♥️for all those lost trying to cope ♥️

[@food603]

This is my favorite PoTO song thank you! :3

[@giaderosa238]

for grandma july 8 2004 i ❤you and wish. you were somehow here agaim

[@Kirithian_OW]

It's okay, i don't need a heart anyway...

[@mayrabarrios2876]

True because you'll be hurt then the true damage sets in

[@leahlabat]

This song is a real tear jerker. This song can soften anybody.

[@CarloftheBells]

I wish MY school would do a phantom of the opera musical...... these songs are just amazing!

[@iwannabeavampire1013]

This is dedicated to my friend's father that just passed away today.. He may not have been my father, but he was such a fatherly figure to me. I remember when I first shed a tear, my friend looked at me and said, "You love that man," and I nodded, sobbing more intensely. The sad thing is that last night, she called him to ask to stay at my place for a few more days and he said, "That's okay; I'm not gonna be gone soon, anyways." Rest in peace, Jeff Brown...

[@zaynmalik-tv1wk]

this song reminde of my uncle I miss him so much he's like a father to me I don't love my father I love my uncle more so much than him I did not see him from 3 years I wish I can see him soon 😢❤❤❤

[@kyrythkessler1316]

This is my first Father's Day without my daddy. I was devastated when he died 5 months ago and I posted this as a tribute to his today. Like Christine I was an only child who loved her father and letting him go has been the worst challenge of my life.

[@connievulpitta6270]

My papa died not knowing me because he was paralyzed, this song helped me get over how sad it was

[@inspiredbysnowx3]

isn't it amazing that someone you love who is now gone is never truly gone? that they live on in your heart?

[@LiveFromTheBasment]

Reminds me of my dad. I listen to this song every day. My dad was my bestfriend. I'm only 15 right now and I was 13 when he died. This song explains exactly how I feel.

[@samanthamiller6621]

Indeed this song fits how I feel about my father very well. I wish I could sing it to him. Oh well he can hear me from heaven. R.I.P daddy :(

[@annemariegoss3762]

Love this song and her voice! Simply amazing and beautiful

[@TheNeopest3]

yes. they live on in your heart forever and ever. its the thing that stays with you the most.

[@gloriousunicorn4896]

[@DiscoInfernal999]

I love this song. I'm 14 years old, and I prefer rnb over opera, but this song is just simply... Amazing.

[@mirjamleesalu5188]

This always makes me think of my grandparents and it always makes me cry... :(

[@pamelasargeant6044]

For Larry, the love of my life, taken too soon by Parkinson's July 27th 2017. Wishing I could hear your voice again, knowing that I never will. Godspeed dear man, until I see you again.

[@MakennaKeating]

I miss you oh, so much chris. I'd give the world to hug you again, or even hear your voice. It gets harder every day.

[@mmsw.9255]

[@user-xw4kr7hu6i]

I’ve been missing my autistic soulmate. He was head over heels in love with me and I was the same way about him. I’ve been wishing for me to be with him again. I miss you so much, Blake. My heart is waiting for you to be filled.

[@cookieloveer98]

this reminds me of my grandmother, this is the most beautiful song in the world

[@1114jewels]

[@rascal77234]

We are playing Phanton of the opera for our field show this year in Marching Band, but last week durring Band Camp 2 of my best friends who are in the band were rushed to the hospital to find their dad dead so we play this in Honor of their dad.

[@megann.128]

Could literally listen to this song all day

[@maxthebat_]

+Megan N. I know

[@rhawke805]

This song makes me cry every time. After my grandpa passed away, I couldn't listen to this without thinking of him. Then, my husband passed away. In the movie, Emmy did an amazing job while singing this song, she looked so emotional...

[@youthgirl08]

This reminds me of my guy friend who I said good bye to on Thursday since he's graduating high school in like 2 weeks. I really miss and love him.

[@alouie2657]

Beautiful song for my first love Kim. She left us 6 years ago today for Heaven. I think of her everyday and miss her so much..

[@markgeld6432]

Spectacular! Thank you so much for putting this together and sharing with us.

[@sd93159]

You were once my one companion You were all that mattered You were once a friend and father Then my world was shattered Wishing you were somehow here again Wishing you were somehow near Sometimes it seem if I just dream Somehow you would be here Wishing I could hear your voice again Knowing that I never would Dreaming of you won't help me to do All that you dreamed I could Passing bells and sculpted angels Cold and monumental Seem for you the wrong companions You were warm and gentle Too many years Fighting back tears Why can't the past just die Wishing you were somehow here again Knowing we must say goodbye Try to forgive teach me to live Give me the strength to try No more memories no more silent tears No more gazing across the wasted years Help me say goodbye.

[@archfeykoi]

Well, Brokenfrogs, she's not saying it can, but she wishes her unfortunate past would not haunt her anymore. Christine lost her mother when she was so young and her father was all she had left. Then he died and she became terribly sad about it and she just wants to be able to see him again. Terrific song, I'm thinking of singing it for the talent show at school.

[@Silverflower6]

I get to sing this for my voice lessons and I can't help but tear up a bit when I sing it

[@alexjones5326]

I'm doing the first verse and the chorus as a monologue in Drama :D

[@legioinvigilata]

Quite literally favorite song from This movie&Play.

[@eprog98]

it makes me cry everytime i listen to it =(

[@puppyloveminecraft5837]

For my Great grandparents who I loved so much but didn't get much time with! :'(

[@ellenskipper7888]

Hands down, my... second favorite lyric in this whole play: “Passing bells and sculpted angels- Cold and monumental- Seem, for you, the wrong companions. *You were warm and gentle*.” Pretty much all of us can relate a dear, lost loved one to that line. Cheers to those we’ve loved and those we’ve lost. 💜🥂🎶🍻💜

[@gigi5211]

My mother played the soundtrack a lot when I was young, and I didn't really think of anyone when I heard this song.. Now I'm 32 years old and I think of my late uncle, who I've known since I was a child. He was a father figure to me, and I loved him dearly. He died when I was 24 years old, about 6 months after I got married. He died due to colon cancer, and his "wife" manipulated him into spending the money on her instead of his medication and treatment. He ended up dying alone and in pain, which breaks my heart and most likely is the reason I can't heal from it. I see his death as a murder. His wife murdered my uncle and I'll never forgive her for it. I remember when my older sister told me it was like "my world was shattered". I wish I could hear his voice and his laugh again. It's been 8 years and I still get upset whenever I think about it. My uncle was a wonderful man who sacrificed and did everything he could to provide for his wife and child, but it was never enough for him and it killed him. The lyrics "Too many years fighting back tears, why can't the past just die?" I think about how I fight the urge to cry because it's been so long, I should be over it. But I'm not and I don't think I ever will be.

[@kimberlyhubbard1141]

my younger brother died Dec.8 2008 this song reminds me of him,,

[@murphyboyse4135]

sorry for your loss.

[@ScorpiaBitch]

Whenever i hear this song i think of my nan, so many wasted years i could have had with her, i lived in new zealand and she lived in england. all those times she rung us up and i didnt want to answer makes me want to cry, i hate myself for it so much. i just want her back

[@moonbeam_mayhem9158]

For my father who died when I was eight, and I only saw the abusive side of the living man I know he could've been, the loving, caring father I know he could've been. I will never be ready to say goodbye to the few moments we had, I will never be ready to let go of what I do have of him, and I'm suffering because of it. I just love him too much. I wish you were here dad... You have a daughter who loves you beyond belief, even if you were abusive, and you were never around much, and I want you to know you will never be gone... You will live in in mine and mom's heart! I wish I could hear your voice again! And I doubt I will stop thinking I could've stopped it for a while, I just was, and still am, too sad by the fact that you committed suicide by drug overdose dad... I love you... Forever...

[@more_dolant4985]

2017 and I still love this

[@horsebackridingrocks]

Miss you Suzette. 4 months ago, you left me. I wish you were you were somehow here with me. You are with me in spirit and that's all that matters. I can feel your presence where ever I go. I love you so much. RIP.
