I just got into Elisabeth (loved it), and I was thinking what a great Death Ramin would make in the unlikely event we ever get an English-language production, then this popped up in my recommends and when I saw the thumbnail I was like... is that Ramin?! This was fantastic! Would love to hear him sing it in the original German!
@@NOONE-cd4gu Hehe hi! I'm a pretty new Ramin stan, so I've been binging all his videos. Love how all his/POTO fans keep running into each other in the comments! 😄
@@TimeandMonotony hahahahah oh so u must be after the april phantom stream right?? And yeah we are a very close community of fans and we also bump into each other in the comments and I kinda know when there is a new fan commening because its more like (fans before april 2020 and fans after april 2020) U can tell 😂
@@NOONE-cd4gu I actually missed the April stream, but I suddenly got a bunch of POTO vids in my recommends, which surprised me as, while I was really into it as a teen in the aughts, I hadn't thought much about it in years. Then I heard about the live stream and how well regarded that particular production was, so I rented it in August to see what all the fuss was about, and fell in love with it! Plunged me right back into my teenage Phantom obsession, now with added Ramin. 😝 I bought the DVD and CD (also the CD of the original London cast) and have watched and listened to it I don't even know how many times since, plus watching clips of other actors, and of course other Ramin songs. It's helped in these stressful times! And I've been recommending POTO 25 to everyone I know (my sister and her boyfriend loved it.) It's so cool that the livestreams have introduced or reintroduced so many people to POTO! And RAMIN. 💕

This one is the most powerful Japanese version I've ever heard. Yuu and Ramin's voice is harmonious. They did a great duet! Look forward to your next concert
If you love this, then I'd recommend taking a listen to the recent cover of this version by Rafscrap. I had never heard of this musical before her cover of this song in Japanese. It gives me chills just like this one
I don't know how many versions of Elisabeth I've seen by now and in how many languages. And while some Deaths are extraordinary and some Rudolphs are as well, I've honestly never seen a pair whose voices fit together so PERFECTLY. Wow. Man, I wished there was more.
This is probably the only version I can truly say has an almost ASMR feeling for me. It can actually help decrease my rotator cuff pain and later on almost energize me. It is tied, for me with the later Hungarian cast.
Ramin continues to AMAZE me. He has a great voice, stage presence, and just seems like a wonderful human being. Listening to him now on his station on Pandora.
This is awesome but I would be so up for Ramin singing in German, I'm a 100% percent sure he fits the role of death perfectly just like he did with the Phantom
It's always so good to see that "our" musicals are beloved and adopted by other countries. As a language nerd and translator, I truly love seeing these videos. What a great combo, it sounds so good!!!
Listening from 2022, this is still THE BEST 闇が広がる ever!! Absolutely love Ramin's singing! The best Death ever! Yu and Ramin's voice fit and support each other so well! Great performance!!
@@morningmoon90 there is a full version of the original German show with English subtitles ❤️ ua-cam.com/video/IGz4qseaxDs/v-deo.html. In the end they actually sing some of the songs in English as a special 😊
I have no words! It was great, wonderful, amazing! I heard Shirota Yu as Death and it was very expressive and perfect! I love his Death! And now he was as Rudolf and it was very cute, emotionally and also perfect! may be I feel it because it is my favorite song in musical Elisabeth! but it was very cool! Bravo!
I remember that Yu-san had the opposite role in toho's Elisabeth play. I have to admit that altough, I LOVED IT. Yu-san doesn't have the bright baritone nor dramatical tenor voice that Ramin has, so the role really fits more Ramin. However, it's the same for Yu-san. I think he tends to get the bad guy's role in Japanese plays just because of his heigth and "non fully japanese" look. But I really LOVE Yu-san with the hero's role. He has a bright yet masculine and softly texturized voice with a good range for high notes. I wish he could had more record opportunities where he could get his whole vocal range exposed, because even if he has not a dramatical tenor voice weight, he can reach low notes and he sounds really elegant. "A singer" focuses more on his middle voice and head voice, which sounds beautiful and natural. I just WOULD LOVE to hear more of him, specially if he took his career as a composer again...
He needs to show off his talents more... Well I need him to show off his talents more. Haha. I wish he'd release his compositions and release more songs.
I think he’s more focused on Musicals that’s why he has not much general recording music(album). He’s been into the Musical industry way way back. But he did have his own concert recently. He was on a roll last year if I’m not mistaken with musicals here and there. If he gets into recording that will totally give him a year with no rest at all since musicals in Japan could go running long in a year.
I discovered the Austrian musicals through their Japanese versions. This song with Yu and Ramin is amazing! If there could be an Elisabeth performance with them, oh God I would go to Japan just to see it!
Perfection!😍 I love Ramin so much.❤ Ramin is my favourite Phantom. I love Elisabeth the musical. Ramin singing Der Tod's part is a dream come true. Thank-you so much.
It sounds really beautifull, this song is my favorite from Elizabeth's Musical and this version is killing it right to the top, I love it! I hope we can find more excelent music in Shirota's channel in the future
This is so good. If Ramin played death, then there would have been no hope of anyone surviving ahahaha. Would be awesome if Ramin did a version of the original Austrian one (starts singing "ich hab dich nie vergessen" in distance) ...
well...it's a European drama maybe the Americans would prefer a funny show? I really adore Elisabeth but don't you think that there is a reason why it hasn't been on Broadway yet?
@@sebastianwuschelkopf7259 I doubt it. It's basically a German Phantom of the Opera, which is wildly popular in America. It just needs a good English translation.
@@TimeandMonotony well, if you think of what happened to "Tanz der Vampire" / "Dance of the Vampires"? It's a great show in Germany and Austria, but the Broadway Producers had to make it funnier and it was a terrible production. I hope they'll do better with Elisabeth...Honestly saying I don't believe that this show is going to come to Broadway/West-End. They've already been trying to bring Rebecca there for years now and no producer seems to want the show...
@@sebastianwuschelkopf7259 Ah, that's a shame. Hopefully if it ever gets an English-language production it would follow the Les Miz example of a non-literal translation that keeps the spirit of the original.
So weird Elisabeth doesn't still have an English version. In Japan Elisabeth is so popular that they have 2 versions of the same musical: the Osaka (Takarazuka style) and the Toho.
When I first saw Elisabeth (like 7 years ago), I fell in love with Mark Seibert 😍. By that time I also was in love with Love Never Dies and of course with Ramin's voice. I always imagined how his voice would fit perfectly with the "Death" character in Elisabeth. And then, 7 years later I found THIS masterpiece! 😍 I remember a video Sierra Boggess uploaded to her Ig, where she, Ramin and other two asian singers sang the chorus of this song in Japanese... And well, now the dream has come True 💜
I keep trying to figure out which one singing high pitch. If I get it right, the first part is Ramin, second part is is Shirota, but the third part is a bit confused....both of them do a part in turn?
I’m so confused which version is now my favorite version, I absolutely love the the Hungarian version that was televised, but this one I actually get goose bumps. I do think Yu is better suited for Rudolph’s role. Ramin has the intensity.

So Tuxedo Mask and the Phantom are singing together. Best thing that I never knew I needed until now.
I thought this was my comment for a moment; I said the same thing almost word for word on a different video 😅
Haha, yeah. xD I stumbled upon a video from the musical and was like: "Itn't that Yu Shirota, a Tuxedo Mask actor?" xD
This one is the most powerful Japanese version I've ever heard.
Yuu and Ramin's voice is harmonious. They did a great duet!
Look forward to your next concert

Ramin doing a German version like in the original Elisabeth would be amazing.
Also, great job Shirota. A man of many talents.
that is not German xD
Rumpel Stilzchen the song they’re covering is from the German musical Elisabeth das Musical!
It’s a visually stunning musical with lovely songs!
@@rumpelstilzchen7871 the original Song is in German
@@minajahan5313 ah, okay. das habe ich noch nicht gesehen, steht noch auf meiner Liste :)
can't belive my eyes that Ramin's Japanese pronounciation is so perfect
Ramin continues to AMAZE me. He has a great voice, stage presence, and just seems like a wonderful human being. Listening to him now on his station on Pandora.
Yu probably helped teach him for the song
This is awesome but I would be so up for Ramin singing in German, I'm a 100% percent sure he fits the role of death perfectly just like he did with the Phantom
Ironically, Yu plays the role of Death in one of the Japanese performances and he is AMAZING!
what the hell. I had no idea Ramin did a cover of this! SO awesome!
Their harmonies are so good!
The voices on both of these amazing gentlemen - stunning! I'm in awe.

After all, Shirota's voice is splendid. And I really love his version of Death in Elisabeth
I don't understand a word but it is fantastic. .Ramin, you always put your all into everything you do with such passion and power.
Gosh i love shirota's voice
I fell in love with this since the moment I heard it on Ramin's instagram. AMAZING 😍😍😍

Love it! Hope yuu’s talent can be more recognized one day :)
Holy craaaaaap 😵

Amazing duet
These two are definitely the Batman and Robin of singers.
I keep trying to figure out which one singing high pitch. If I get it right, the first part is Ramin, second part is is Shirota, but the third part is a bit confused....both of them do a part in turn?
No me canso de escucharla, esto es música y no otra cosa!
and just a moment a while ago, i realized that you.. Yu shirota singing so well . so excited..
Gosh these two!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hooshit so happy I found this
Bravo!!! Que voces , hermoso!!!
Playing this on repeat until I finish writing my paper lol.
Beautiful song
Yu shurota was a awesome singer😊
OH MY GOD.
Or should I say "Oh my Ramin?" 😂😂
*NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE WHO MAY BE OFFENDED IN ANY WAY* *YU IS ALSO GREAT AS USUAL*
So beautiful, i love it
Oh god I can't believe how much time I searched this song...and now I found it. Guess what, now it's in my playlist in spotify😆😆😆
Please release a version with JaeJoong from the concert
WOW! I just wanna close my eyes and listen.....
A perfect duet! And I don' t understand a single word....
Amazing! "Love the music!
I’m so confused which version is now my favorite version, I absolutely love the the Hungarian version that was televised, but this one I actually get goose bumps. I do think Yu is better suited for Rudolph’s role. Ramin has the intensity.
Una de las canciones que más me gusta del musical.. Realmente increíble!!! 😍😁gracias por su arduo trabajo 😉
Amazing performance.
My favourite song from the musical.^^
This is probably why Tuxedo Mask dies so much, dang
Most likely.
So awesome!!!

Incredible! I love the voices!!!
Phantom and Tuxedo Mask?! No way!! Legends!!
This is so beautiful ❤ glad I found this channel❤
