im-so-2460-done It's weird to see book Christine on stage. I'm so used to Christine with brown hair in the Lloyd Webber version that it's weird to see the Leroux version.
Second for me. In my country, the actress who played Christine is a natural blonde and they didn't put a whig on her. She looks stunning though, unlike this one :)))
Loved the performance, Emmi has such a beautiful voice, very pure and innocent portrayal of Christine as well. Bens sound is really refreshing and different from the recent phantoms on the west end. They really showed why the phantom deserved the win this year.
I'm a complete musical novice, someone who three years ago would never go to one. Bought a trip to London for my girlfriend with tickets to this and it was great. How anyone could be disappointed in this is beyond me, it really is. Cracking show, cracking music and singing, get yerself to it.
+TenakaKhan1981 TBH, I was disappointed with this performance and I'll tell you why: in the West End, there's a habit of hiring light sounding Christine's like Emmi. She's not bad, but I'm used to the Broadway production [which I've seen like nine times so far], where they cast heavier sounding Christines like Sierra Boggess, Sandra Joseph, Marni Raab, Rebecca Pitcher, etc. So it's not that Emmi was bad per se, just that it's a matter of personal preference in my case.
+R Beth see i prefer the more lighter but youthful style Christine,all the ones you have said play her more older and mature which im not a fan off as shes meant to be 16-20
+TenakaKhan1981 well when you are more expert you will no doubt become as stuck up your own arse as the critics here, so it is basically just a matter of time before you understand
POTOGURU25 No she's not. Christine is supposed to be at least twenty, at least in the book. The 16 year old thing comes from 1. people who saw the movie and 2. a mistranslation from the original French book.
fxntasyland How so? I saw the photos, the star princess actually looks really cute, with Hannibal it looks normal like on Meg, and it's absolutely gorgeous with the wishing dress. And the wedding dress- it's white, so it fits the same as the gown in this video. I saw Emmi with a brown wig, and it really doesn't fit her. Look, I like brunette Christine as well, but I don't get why the blonde wig gets so much hate, just because it's something new. They've been changing the brown wig from "almost black" to a really light shade of brown over the years and nobody complained.
Ben has a good voice but he sounded off from time to time and not in sync with Emmi. I wonder if he had difficulties to hear the music. And the last note was to short. Emmi is really good. I like her clear and deeper Soprano voice than many of the very light "teenage voice Christines" we sometimes hear in the London production. Christine is supposed to be young but to sing like an angel and not like a teenage girl. Looking forward to hear Emmi with Peter in the swedish production this fall.
Yes, they butchered his interpretation in post production, I wonder why. But the last note is a bit off by itself, and in the beginning of TMOTN he sounds a bit too much like Hugh Panaro. I like him as the Phantom, though.
TheMsiaddict Ramin is a lovely guy and no doubt very talented, but his voice is untrained and it shows. In LND, Anastasia and as Enjolras in Les Mis, that doesn’t matter so much as they were more “pop/rock”, but it absolutely does for classical roles like Phantom and Valjean.
@@melissam597 Tru Tru, but I think it comes down to personal preference I'd say. Ramin's got a lot of timbre in his voice and is very melodic which I LOVE. But Some people like a more operatic voice like John Own Jones which I can totally understand. And yeah, personally he's not my fav Jean Val Jean, but for a mysterious romantic dude like phantom, for me, he's perfect
Don't rate him! My Fav other than 'Crawford' was the Actor who took over from him-'Dave Willetts!' Also loved 'Peter Karrie!','Colm Wilkinson!' 'John Owen Jones' & 'Ramin karimloo!'x
Loved the performance! I quite like seeing a blonde Christine. I'm still adamant that no one can beat Ramin Karimloo as my idea of the perfect Phantom though.
Matt Cammelle was one of the best underrated Phantom because he was the standby of Earl Carpenter. The rare gentle and soft one. His MOTN is difficult to match. He's gliding from whispers to high notes effortlessly. He's not busy touching his hair but busy wooing Christine.
Unpopular opinion... but I kinda like Ben as Phantom 😏 He by far isn't the best (For me it will always be JOJ) but he isn't exactly awful? He's actually really good if you hear him with a fresh pair ears.
+Nicole Whinnett JOJ is my favourite Phantom as well (he was the first I saw on the UK Tour the other year)! I saw Ben the night after the Awards and his Phantom was absolutely brilliant. Not just his voice but his acting as well I was so moved.
Am I the only one who likes Ben as the Phantom? But for sure, he was a little bit flat on that last night. Other than that, though, I was more annoyed by Emmi's entirely expressionless and emotionless performance than his.
I don't change for nothing to Ramin, man. He treat so well the use of suspense between the phrases and take care of deliver a so passionate way to carry Christine into his world full of sensations sheltering her far away from the "garish light of day". The seduction is a important part to and... Obviously his voice match perfectly, he drives us to feel like if we were his Miss Daae
I love this so much because Christine is blonde in the book..... as for this Ramin thing... the gals are only thinking of how good he looks..... This man is good but so is the newest one ... I would have never thought a black man for phantom but OMFG he is fantastic!!!
Ailin Ell late reply ik but anyways, the both of them was kinda of in there characters bc they didn't have the boat and everything so they couldn't get in to character as well as they do in the real show. they just had to go up and walk around on a stage.
+chris d Because Christine, in the novel, is a blond Swedish girl. Emmi is Swedish, I think, so I believe they're paying tribute to the original source!
When someone is cast in a show, the people in charge come to watch at some point (rehearsal or show) and see what they want. For Emmi, they wanted her blonde (maybe because she is Swedish) and not a brunette. It's the same with Les Mis, Zoe Doano has a blonde wig because the directors liked her blonde.
I think I am the only one here who loved both his voice and his performance. I actually think that the character needs some feeling, and acting a little weird is to me basically part of the character. He is madly in love with Christine and will do anything for her. Loved this.
Damn! Why am I just now hearing about these too? That was awesome!!! And I’m so used to seeing a brunette Christine, so seeing a blonde one is a nice change
They ought to stage a POTO production where the actresses playing Meg and Christine should switch roles every other performance. Kind of like that Gilligan's Island episode where Mary Ann falls on her head and thinks she Ginger and Ginger pretends she's Mary Ann.
I saw Ben and Celinde last week, and it was incredible. I feel when performances are out of context it always changes it. For the actors haven't got fully into character. I think Ben is a fantastic phantom. And I do like Emmi here. But I didn't see her live
Lucky bastard I went to see it two days ago and fell in love with it. Ben makes an amazing phantom. He brings charisma to the character and a sense of spontaneity.
Emmi Christensson is originally from Sweden and will participate in Melodifestivalen this year, which is the Swedish national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest
I wish he would stop touching himself. The best Phantoms are the ones who don't try to be sexy. I know he is new to this role, but my goodness could they coach him? I do like the blonde wig considering the book has her as blonde. It has always bothered me that they didn't go by the book on such an easy detail. Maybe many Phantom "phans" have not read the book and therefore don't know. Oh, well. I just can't get into this couple. And he doesn't use an English accent. Hello! He is playing the role in London for goodness sake.
Послушала 46 секунд закрыла глаза и уши, внешность отталкивает актрисы, ну не Кристина она. Для меня как отметили ниже, лучшая пара это Ramin $ Sierra! До сих пор пересматриваю их партию! Ах, какая мимика, какой взгляд Ramin. Надеюсь все-таки снова увидеть их потрясающий дуэт!
She is very very good but I saw Celinde Schoenmaker on her opening night and I am still recovering from it months later it was that good with easily the Best Christine in Celinde and by far the best Phantom ever in John Owen Jones.
Oh WOW, I have never seen stage Christine as a blonde before. That is a crazy visual difference, so used to the dark hair. (Yes, I know she was blonde in the book) Anyone know why they changed it here? Book tribute, or some other reason?
I'm pretty sure that last note is pre-recorded and they use it for all the Christines because it literally sounds the same in almost every video I watch. xD
can't people just enjoy the performance. All these people with their phones are annoying and I believe being very disrespectful towards the actors and the amazing talent.
It's so beatiful! I don't get why people watch the WHOLE thourgh they cell phones... It's a pity. You lose a lot that way, I don't really live the moment! And you find a lot of this video online anyway. If I film something, than that way: Only for a few minutes only... and I film the audience, to remember the atmosphere.
I think it can be agreed that the sign language lady is the real star of this show.
She is me at every musical audition I have ever tried out for. 😂
IT'S BOOK CHRISTINE!
I cried when I met her because of how accurate she was.
im-so-2460-done It's weird to see book Christine on stage. I'm so used to Christine with brown hair in the Lloyd Webber version that it's weird to see the Leroux version.
im-so-2460-done Makes me excited!!! lol I hate that she's always brunette.
Quick addition, I'm going to see Ben as the phantom next month and I'm thoroughly looking forward to it!
Yeah
Finally! A blonde Christine! I'm glad to see tribute finally being paid to Gaston Leroux!
First blonde-haired Christine I've ever seen...
Same here
Second for me. In my country, the actress who played Christine is a natural blonde and they didn't put a whig on her. She looks stunning though, unlike this one :)))
Kate Wibberly even better, she's probably Swedish or Norwegian like Christine was in the book
Adam Pajkowski She's Swedish! I love that she has a bit of an accent, which I assume Christine would've had ^^
She's my second. She was blonde in the original tale so I kinda like it.
omg blonde wig makes me too happy :) (book accuracy, haha)
Same!!!
It isn’t a wig... or I don’t think so
And she’s a Swede... ACCURACY
Yes, it's a wig, cos styling the actresses hair would destroy their real hair, so they're using wigs
The sign language interpreter is getting more into this performance than the actors are.
Is that a common feature now? How does she interpret when Christine goes hysterical at the end of the number?
im laughing sorry
Justin Shea 😂😂😂 the girl at 4:29-4:30 perfectly described my reaction after watching all these.
Justin Shea I know lol😂 but good that People with hearing impairment get the same performance.
everyone: look at the sign language lady
me: look at his eyebrow
Loved the performance, Emmi has such a beautiful voice, very pure and innocent portrayal of Christine as well. Bens sound is really refreshing and different from the recent phantoms on the west end. They really showed why the phantom deserved the win this year.
OMG A blonde Christine!!! People, I'm geeking HARD
I'm so excited there's a blonde Christine like in the original novel! :D
I'm a complete musical novice, someone who three years ago would never go to one. Bought a trip to London for my girlfriend with tickets to this and it was great. How anyone could be disappointed in this is beyond me, it really is. Cracking show, cracking music and singing, get yerself to it.

The video failed to catch the creepy Phantom.
I've read few people complaining on the blonde wig. I personally think it looks better, and it nicely fits with the white nightgown.
fxntasyland How so? I saw the photos, the star princess actually looks really cute, with Hannibal it looks normal like on Meg, and it's absolutely gorgeous with the wishing dress.

I am really impressed by her voice, she hit all the difficult notes perfectly ✧
Oi, the mask. They added like half an inch to the protrusion of his nose. The actor's nose isn't so beak-y and hooked as all that.
I actually really like blonde wig for Christine as much as I love dark 😊
Can you guys just stop complaining about ben forsters voice!!
You could not have Done it half as good. He makes a new and mysterious phantom.
His voice was not nasally before the trap door accident.
Oscar&Peder
He's not as good as Matthew Cammelle who was Peron when he was Magaldi in Evita.
Oscar&Peder I’m a girl and I could do it like 10 times better than him!
She truly sounds like an angel....
And it sounds like she could go even higher with those notes!
Her voice is so clear and gorgeous. I have been REBORN.
Ben has a good voice but he sounded off from time to time and not in sync with Emmi. I wonder if he had difficulties to hear the music. And the last note was to short.
Emmi is really good. I like her clear and deeper Soprano voice than many of the very light "teenage voice Christines" we sometimes hear in the London production. Christine is supposed to be young but to sing like an angel and not like a teenage girl. Looking forward to hear Emmi with Peter in the swedish production this fall.
The songs were shortened.
+Rickard Nyberg I still think Emmi is too light sounding for me, but I'm used to the Broadway production.
R Beth
This was autotuned. If you want to see the creepiest phantom, there's a raw video from an audience.
Yes, they butchered his interpretation in post production, I wonder why. But the last note is a bit off by itself, and in the beginning of TMOTN he sounds a bit too much like Hugh Panaro. I like him as the Phantom, though.
Liked Emmi Christensson's voice. Ben Forster was great but no one can top Ramin. what I really liked most in the video is the sign language lady tho.
Trouble cuber
No one can top Ramin? Are you sure?
Trouble cuber
JOJ, John Owens is better.
Trouble cuber while I love Ramin, I believe that no one can be as amazing as Anthony Warlow
TheMsiaddict Ramin is a lovely guy and no doubt very talented, but his voice is untrained and it shows. In LND, Anastasia and as Enjolras in Les Mis, that doesn’t matter so much as they were more “pop/rock”, but it absolutely does for classical roles like Phantom and Valjean.

And yeah, personally he's not my fav Jean Val Jean, but for a mysterious romantic dude like phantom, for me, he's perfect
finally! a blonde Christine like in the book!
Is it safe to say that Ben's Phantom is the creepiest since Michael Crawford's?
+Vikram C its the eyebrows hahaha
+Pj Narciso
Most likely his eyes.
Don't rate him! My Fav other than 'Crawford' was the Actor who took over from him-'Dave Willetts!' Also loved 'Peter Karrie!','Colm Wilkinson!' 'John Owen Jones' & 'Ramin karimloo!'x
+Wayne Dev
Matthew Cammelle.
Yes.
OMG A BLONDE CHRISTINE!!!!!!!!! Finally paid attention to Gaston Leroux!!!! 💗💗💗 I am such a Phan and geek😂😂🤓🤓
ive been spoilt by Ramin and Sierra
Sarah SAMEEEE there's just no going back! Lol
Sarah lol I agree nothing can beat them haha
Ramin and Sierra are the best
Sarah same.
Once you’ve seen them you’ve passed the point of no return....
Sorry. Check out Celinde Schoenmakes, she’s pretty awesome too!!
As someone who has seen the US multiple times, it's odd but refreshing to see the blonde Christines.
She and Sierra is kinda my fav ATM, but no one Can top Rierra
AND SHE IS BLONDE. I LOVE IT!!!
that last note gave me chills. They have amazing voices!!!!
I loved her vocalizations at the end.
It's perfect solution. Beautyful blond Christine - it's very nice, and she perfect to that scene.
Loved the performance! I quite like seeing a blonde Christine.
I'm still adamant that no one can beat Ramin Karimloo as my idea of the perfect Phantom though.
Matt Cammelle was one of the best underrated Phantom because he was the standby of Earl Carpenter. The rare gentle and soft one. His MOTN is difficult to match. He's gliding from whispers to high notes effortlessly. He's not busy touching his hair but busy wooing Christine.
I think John Owen Jones and Ramin Karimloo are on a par. JOJ was a fabulous Phantom.
@@gabriellethomas1551 totally agree!
No chemistry or emotion except for the sign language lady. Keep rocking.
Watching this again. Wow, Ben's voice is on point.
These two are amazing live!
The guy at the beginning ... "cheaper on DVD" haha
😂
lol and there laughing,bloody idiots
Unpopular opinion... but I kinda like Ben as Phantom 😏 He by far isn't the best (For me it will always be JOJ) but he isn't exactly awful? He's actually really good if you hear him with a fresh pair ears.
Yes John best,Ben doesn't sound too bad as I thought,before anyone says bad about his voice,listen to Marcus lovette first
+Nicole Whinnett JOJ is my favourite Phantom as well (he was the first I saw on the UK Tour the other year)! I saw Ben the night after the Awards and his Phantom was absolutely brilliant. Not just his voice but his acting as well I was so moved.
Ugh. The best one chose to live in a village.
Nicole Whinnett he's a good phantom
JOHN OWEN JONES IS AMAZING
Am I the only one who likes Ben as the Phantom? But for sure, he was a little bit flat on that last night. Other than that, though, I was more annoyed by Emmi's entirely expressionless and emotionless performance than his.
I like him as the phantom very much!!
He is stanning. Emmi is ruining everything...
Celinde should have sung.
Autotuned here. Find the raw video from an audience.
*****
Different. Because the raw video focused at Ben's performance. No zooming out. The creepiest ever.
no...Ramin is the best phatom ever with co-star serga bogges
Ms.jetcutie Robert *****
Matt Cammelle is the best. Find his MOTN on UA-cam.
I don't change for nothing to Ramin, man. He treat so well the use of suspense between the phrases and take care of deliver a so passionate way to carry Christine into his world full of sensations sheltering her far away from the "garish light of day". The seduction is a important part to and... Obviously his voice match perfectly, he drives us to feel like if we were his Miss Daae
Blonde swedish Christine ever who can speak proper british accent and crystal clear soprano voice
I love this so much because Christine is blonde in the book..... as for this Ramin thing... the gals are only thinking of how good he looks..... This man is good but so is the newest one ... I would have never thought a black man for phantom but OMFG he is fantastic!!!
I mean don't get me wrong Ramin's voice is wonderful.
Ben doesn't sound as bad as audio I heard of him,emmi sounds amazing thou but they both look the part very much
Anybody notice the double voice when she started the cadenza? Almost as if she is trying to sing over the recorded notes...
No. this is autotuned.
+TheMsiaddict This is, but if you watch one of the videos recorded by the audience (which obviously isn't auto-tuned), it's really obvious
No. I didn't hear the difference. But maybe it's just me. I'm too mesmerised by the Phantom creepiness 😁.
I can hear it
My first thought: IS THAT A BLONDE CHRISTINE!? finally!!! Someone goes with the book Christine
Loved Emmi's voice but her acting was a bit off?
Ailin Ell late reply ik but anyways, the both of them was kinda of in there characters bc they didn't have the boat and everything so they couldn't get in to character as well as they do in the real show. they just had to go up and walk around on a stage.
i watched him live and he was amazing!!!
I am in love with them!!
Anna Łojek then go and watch the performance with Ramin Karimloo and Sierra Boggges😇
Really loved Ben in this but really loved him in the rocky horror picture show
emi christensons christne is the most lovely to see
I have to admit,the mask for phantom always makes the person at least 10% hotter. I dunno why,it just does.
I like blonde Christine
Finally a blonde christine!
Why is she wearing a blonde wig.?
Because she is a blonde Christine!
+chris d Because Christine, in the novel, is a blond Swedish girl. Emmi is Swedish, I think, so I believe they're paying tribute to the original source!
+M. Imari I think that might be part of it, but I've also read a lot about them not liking her with brown hair (?)

For Emmi, they wanted her blonde (maybe because she is Swedish) and not a brunette. It's the same with Les Mis, Zoe Doano has a blonde wig because the directors liked her blonde.
The understudies have blonde hair. I have seen the show twice and the first time I saw it was with the understudy and she had blonde hair.
Celinde should have sung this
Agree.
+Sarah Chaffey I agree! She's a lot better
+Sarah Chaffey See Emmi's performance in theater, its stunning
+Sarah Chaffey why didnt she?
Elle Oswald I'm not sure it could have been to do with the scheduling at the theatre or something.
great they won , my fave show besides wicked to do well
my fave christine and i met him ben i dont know ben !😏
If you look at the phantom's lips you can see the special effects.
I think I am the only one here who loved both his voice and his performance. I actually think that the character needs some feeling, and acting a little weird is to me basically part of the character. He is madly in love with Christine and will do anything for her. Loved this.
Damn! Why am I just now hearing about these too? That was awesome!!!
And I’m so used to seeing a brunette Christine, so seeing a blonde one is a nice change
Why is Meg playing as Christine? 😂
Meg?
It was a joke
Jamming Rag
Oh, grins. I just remember the blonde wig.
They ought to stage a POTO production where the actresses playing Meg and Christine should switch roles every other performance. Kind of like that Gilligan's Island episode where Mary Ann falls on her head and thinks she Ginger and Ginger pretends she's Mary Ann.
1517CalvinMartin
London productions always have the fixed Christine as I know. They don't switch with Meg.
I saw Ben and Celinde last week, and it was incredible. I feel when performances are out of context it always changes it. For the actors haven't got fully into character. I think Ben is a fantastic phantom. And I do like Emmi here. But I didn't see her live
I was lucky to have met Ben here in Thessaloniki😍😍 his voice is one of a kind💎💎
Yesterday I went to see phantom of the opera, I met ben Forster and got a selfie with him!!
Lucky bastard I went to see it two days ago and fell in love with it. Ben makes an amazing phantom. He brings charisma to the character and a sense of spontaneity.
I agree
Emmi Christensson is originally from Sweden and will participate in Melodifestivalen this year, which is the Swedish national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest
Amazing
Wao!!!! I fell in love with Ben's Phantom❤❤❤❤❤
I´m a little bit disappointed. Especially the last note of Ben Forster was not clear..really sad bout this..
Does it matter? THIS IS STILL AWESOME
It's the ribvarto
Christine, he's right behind you!
I wish he would stop touching himself. The best Phantoms are the ones who don't try to be sexy. I know he is new to this role, but my goodness could they coach him? I do like the blonde wig considering the book has her as blonde. It has always bothered me that they didn't go by the book on such an easy detail. Maybe many Phantom "phans" have not read the book and therefore don't know. Oh, well. I just can't get into this couple. And he doesn't use an English accent. Hello! He is playing the role in London for goodness sake.
noo the best phantoms are the ones who do lol
+POTOGURU25 Ben is from Sunderland, he has a British accent.
That's Mackem accent.
Love that Christine is blonde tbh
WHOOA! Ben ROCKS the Phantom! Wow..wow! :D
Beautiful 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
nice song ,and beautiful compliments
what happened to classic phantom when Christine was brunette and her accent didn't slip and the phantom was mezmorizing and on pitch
I cant get over the gap in terms of quality of performance between Ramin and Sierra and there two, very disapointing
+BrownHair and BlueEyes Ramin and Sierra are my favorites so far
+BrownHair and BlueEyes Ramin and Sierra are my favorites so far
Sorry, Book Christine is visiting
Lmao Christine was originally blonde in the book. Get your facts right before commenting.
Послушала 46 секунд закрыла глаза и уши, внешность отталкивает актрисы, ну не Кристина она. Для меня как отметили ниже, лучшая пара это Ramin $ Sierra! До сих пор пересматриваю их партию! Ах, какая мимика, какой взгляд Ramin. Надеюсь все-таки снова увидеть их потрясающий дуэт!
Goose pimples, the set here at Covent garden is breathtaking, makes me want to see it a 3rd time. Ben is amazing.
She is very very good but I saw Celinde Schoenmaker on her opening night and I am still recovering from it months later it was that good with easily the Best Christine in Celinde and by far the best Phantom ever in John Owen Jones.
From other videos here, Celinde's Fantine is incredible as well, I'd put her up there with Lea Salonga and Ruthie Henshall.
Oh WOW, I have never seen stage Christine as a blonde before. That is a crazy visual difference, so used to the dark hair. (Yes, I know she was blonde in the book) Anyone know why they changed it here? Book tribute, or some other reason?
I don't think Ben Forster has a voice made to sing the Phantom's part... Well I don't like him as the phantom
But Emmi is so good! I agree with Ben, he was straining at times - Ramin is the ultimate phantom
+Theatre Tards yes, she is really good (actually I prefer Celinde's voice)
And yes I totally agree, Ramin is the ultimate phantom!
+Isaure John Owen Jones the ultimate phantom
I think he was just abit nervous he didn't sound like this in the theatre I saw last week
This is flat. Agree. Point of No Return is better.
And instead of enjoying the show, OF COURSE you must record it. I swear, the world was a better place before phones had a camera.
Loved Emmi's performance when I saw her play the role last year. Ben sounds a bit off though.... Hmmm
Autotuned. There's a video of an audience that catched the creepiest Phantom ever.
*****
Lol. I only gave the link once. I mean he is one of the best. The creepy Erik is good.
I'm pretty sure that last note is pre-recorded and they use it for all the Christines because it literally sounds the same in almost every video I watch. xD
Omg i freaking love this
If you think that Sierra Boggess and Ramin Karimloo are greater, thumbs up!
wickedphantom24601 AMEN
Ramin and Sierra are the Best!!!
can't people just enjoy the performance. All these people with their phones are annoying and I believe being very disrespectful towards the actors and the amazing talent.
Excellent
It's so beatiful! I don't get why people watch the WHOLE thourgh they cell phones... It's a pity. You lose a lot that way, I don't really live the moment! And you find a lot of this video online anyway. If I film something, than that way: Only for a few minutes only... and I film the audience, to remember the atmosphere.
She sound like sierra boggess
She's no Sierra Boggess.
dd inge can you not
Oh no, the short-minded comparers have returned
Not really impressed.
The Phantom is wearing more make-up than Christine.
That clímax was insane
Christine Daae , where is your red scarf 😂
AWESOME
I love Ben!
I think Ben sounds A LOT like Michael Crawford
Bravo
The very last note, the iconic beautiful high note was definitely victim to lip syncing. You can hear it cut off :/
Bland and with no feeling.
Ben Forster!!!!!!
Judging by this performance, Ben Forster does not have Phantom in his blood yet.
Ben Lewis replaced him, though.
awsome
