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.
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'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!!!
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.
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.
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.
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
Emmy is fantastic Christine. Just look at her emotions, listen her singing - she's gorgeous. And this song breaks my heart every time I hear it. But also that's one of my favorite songs (and Emmy's
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 😐
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.
Christine's tear filled song with the back drop of the snowed garden is hauntingly beautiful - my favorite scene in the film.
Guwol wow! Wat!
@FRANCO PEREZ It could be perceived both ways.
Yeah Christine's tear made most beautiful snowy scene out of all the things I've seen

I’m sorry to hear about your mom.
Emmy Rossum is such a pure beauty in this movie
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
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"
Thanks for the lyrics to this stirring masterpiece..... 😥🤔👍
LOVE IT, every Christine gives The song her own style

Too many tears fighting back years
xD
One of my favorite songs in this musical
I cry watching this every time
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.
I really like Emmy she’s my fave Christine. Sierra was amazing as well!
yass both of them my favs and ofc Sarah herself the queen 💖
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
This movie is amazing
The Phantom of the opera in my head dreams 💋💋💋
Emmy has such a lovely voice
So beautiful.Perfection.💕10/17/23 11PM
Breath taking vocals
No one ever comments on this video they are around 2 months apart on each comment but this song is so beautiful
lol is no one gonna talk about how Christine's dad has like the biggest gravesite ever despite just being a known violinist.
Its called a mausoleum
He was a famous musician.
one of my favourite songs from the film
yes, and i love this song!♡♡
One of mine as well
good for you
Emmy is fantastic Christine. Just look at her emotions, listen her singing - she's gorgeous.
And this song breaks my heart every time I hear it. But also that's one of my favorite songs (and Emmy's
This was the first song I ever heard from Phantom of the Opera 🤩😍😇
Poor Christine 😢
0:53 to go see the movie on time for sure and we are still going to get some rest today too too early for the morning to be there
This masterpiece and THE GODFATHER are my love. They never satisfy my desire to watch them over and over.
This is my favorite song
gorgeous
Oh lord coming back to this after listening to the 25th anniversary version for weeks on end this sounds weird
I remember seeing this part when i first watched it
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
2020 anyone?
Yep
Yep
Yep
2021
Lovely!
She should've played Belle in the Live Action Beauty and the Beast
My other favorite song is very spontaneous and soothing
And sounded very sad
They spelled somehow wrong lmao...
That can happen to human beings.
@@madphantom7161 yeah but its still a little funny because it CAN happen but doesnt often :)
@@SpiderTNT. 😂
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
The Phantom of the opera 2

Mother Lois
She's not opening her mouth properly!!!
only people with strict music teachers will understand this.........😧😃
You do realize she's lipsinging
+princepeterwolf she is singing,but it is recorded and played while she mouths the words.they do the same in music videos,without autotune!!😂
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.
jenna henry that means lipsinging
@@princepeterwolf *lipsyncing, as in synchronizing ones lips with the playback of a song to imitate the look of singing.
I prefer the original version
Just a shame she went on to do shameless
She is ok, but Sierra is the best
I prefer emmy
Emmy is way better. Sometimes too much vibrato is a bad thing
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
The scenery looks great. The voice, of course, is absolutely terrible.
