About:
Far beneath the majesty and splendour of the Paris Opera House, hides the Phantom in a shadowy existence. Shamed by his physical appearance and feared by all, the love he holds for his beautiful protégée Christine Daaé is so strong that even her heart cannot resist.
The musical opened at Her Majesty’s Theatre on 9 October 1986 with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in the leading roles, and there have been dozens of productions worldwide since then. Now in its 30th record-breaking year, The Phantom of the Opera continues to captivate audiences at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London’s West End, after more than 11,000 performances.

Christine's tear filled song with the back drop of the snowed garden is hauntingly beautiful - my favorite scene in the film.

[@funwithkendalljones220]

Guwol wow! Wat!

[@elisabethvdwilt]

@FRANCO PEREZ It could be perceived both ways.

[@lalamia7797]

Yeah Christine's tear made most beautiful snowy scene out of all the things I've seen

[@myplace95]

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 seemed if I just dreamed 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" Help me say, "Goodbye"

I wish she was cast as Belle in 2017 Beauty & the Beast... She was truly born for that role

Voice, full-lips, brown hair and big brown eyes

LOVE IT, every Christine gives The song her own style

[@brookeelizabeth1104]

I've heard this song by so many amazing singers and each one brings so much emotion to the song and such a unique point of view that comparing them would be like comparing apples to oranges!! I love this version, Emmy Rossum is an amazing performer and I love this version!!!

[@MrMadmalable]

Impossible to compare different singers. Emmy has such an innocent beauty about her, where as Sierra bogoss brings a kind of powerful but more mature version to the song, and both are outstanding in their own way.

[@aedanstorm]

My mom died when I was 9. She loved the phantom of the opera so much and this play is one of the only things I have to remember her by. Every time this song comes on I break down in tears.

[@stacysaint-ilma781]

I’m sorry to hear about your mom.

[@El.dude97]

Emmy Rossum is such a pure beauty in this movie

[@AresWar-mq3bc]

They spelled somehow wrong lmao...

[@madphantom7161]

That can happen to human beings.

[@SpiderTNT.]

@@madphantom7161 yeah but its still a little funny because it CAN happen but doesnt often :)

@@SpiderTNT. 😂

[@butterfly.girly007]

Yeah they did i just looked at it for the whole vid and I was like, that doesn't look right, five minutes later Oh it's spelled wrong

[@SkeleLock]

This part of the movie was one where I was really not happy with the Phantom because she's trying to grieve her father being gone. Some respect for those in mourning seems like a given, and definitely not the time to stage another kidnapping.

[@AdorableAnimeFreak]

lol is no one gonna talk about how Christine's dad has like the biggest gravesite ever despite just being a known violinist.

[@sarahgrizzle4015]

Its called a mausoleum

[@windmuser]

He was a famous musician.

[@Ali_bean]

One of my favorite songs in this musical

[@samanthahughes6045]

I didn't listen to this song for a while after my grandmother died. It would have been way to painful, but the part where she sings the part about the sculptures being the wrong companions for her father kept playing in my head because it was true for my grandmother to.

[@antonvanderbatez6015]

Too many tears fighting back years

[@OccyDaBoss]

xD

[@nitagirl614]

She should've played Belle in the Live Action Beauty and the Beast

[@shamster2360]

I cry watching this every time

[@WellRaven]

Oh lord coming back to this after listening to the 25th anniversary version for weeks on end this sounds weird

[@Brittany_Williams]

I really like Emmy she’s my fave Christine. Sierra was amazing as well!

[@gglovesgorillazmj7784]

yass both of them my favs and ofc Sarah herself the queen 💖

[@cottoncandygem1885]

No one ever comments on this video they are around 2 months apart on each comment but this song is so beautiful

Poor Christine 😢

[@Louisa.Bowman23]

This was the first song I ever heard from Phantom of the Opera 🤩😍😇

[@JoshuaOrro-MustangPrinceOR-YTB]

Emmy has such a lovely voice

[@_lexi]

one of my favourite songs from the film

[@johnconstantinidis9134]

yes, and i love this song!♡♡

[@A_Morgan_S1400]

One of mine as well

[@OccyDaBoss]

good for you

[@jennahenry6273]

She's not opening her mouth properly!!! only people with strict music teachers will understand this.........😧😃

[@princepeterwolf]

You do realize she's lipsinging

[@jennahenry6273]

+princepeterwolf she is singing,but it is recorded and played while she mouths the words.they do the same in music videos,without autotune!!😂

[@UmmOopsy]

The only musical I have seen move to movie that has actual singing (I think) is Les Miserables. I feel like that's the only musical where there is no lip sync.

[@susushisushi]

jenna henry that means lipsinging

[@emolyemu89]

@@princepeterwolf *lipsyncing, as in synchronizing ones lips with the playback of a song to imitate the look of singing.

[@이은지-s9h]

gorgeous

[@stacysaint-ilma781]

My other favorite song is very spontaneous and soothing

[@stacysaint-ilma781]

And sounded very sad

[@lalamia7797]

I can dare to say its the first song that I remember whole lirics of it. When I wanna go somewhere inside myself, usually travel hearing this

[@Deanquez]

I remember seeing this part when i first watched it

[@ingridmay66]

This movie is amazing

[@xxhorror13]

This is my favorite song

[@amyclarke41]

i get how she feels in yhis show ok life has got easier but certain people like the other song can twist u both ways not romance i meant some family members could say things about my mum and i loved them and my mum 😐

Just a shame she went on to do shameless

[@hikarihikaru3175]

I prefer the original version

[@alexchung736]

She is ok, but Sierra is the best

[@itsannabellie]

I prefer emmy

[@arnoldmendoza3907]

Emmy is way better. Sometimes too much vibrato is a bad thing

[@annams12345]

Alex Chung both are really good but personally I prefer Sierra

@@arnoldmendoza3907 sierra doesn't wander around looking like she's stumped by a hard sum tho

Yes it’s weird listening to this after listening to Sierra singing for weeks on end

[@MarioStahl1983]

The scenery looks great. The voice, of course, is absolutely terrible.
