- Sierra Boggess hits some outrageous high notes as Christine as she sings 'Think of Me' from Andrew Lloyd Webber and Cameron Mackintosh' anniversary production of The Phantom of The Opera.
From Phantom of The Opera at the Royal Albert Hall (2011): In celebration of the 25th Anniversary of Andrew Lloyd Webber's The Phantom of the Opera, Cameron Mackintosh produced a unique, spectacular staging of the musical on a scale which had never been seen before. Inspired by the original staging by Hal Prince and Gillian Lynne, this lavish, fully-staged production set in the sumptuous Victorian splendour of London's legendary Royal Albert Hall features a cast and orchestra of over 200, plus some very special guest appearances.

Sierra does such a wonderful job of portraying Christine’s nervousness in her voice when she first sings! The switch to the strong,confident voice near the middle of the song is absolutely breathtaking!
Yes! That's so amazing!
@@lyntanner8333 I agree!👍 It really shows Christine's transformation into a confident performer,and all of the women who have portrayed Christine so far have done an excellent job!❤
Every christine does this? It’s in the stage directions. Like that is actually the point of this scene....
I wanna give your comment a like but I don't wanna destroy the current 1111 likes :D
@@alphasia91 pretty sure they mean they like HOW sierra portrays it, not that she’s the only one who does it
At this point, they should just permanently release the musical, like come on
This needs to be heard go up u
There is more mileage to be gained by rationing the show out in installments.
Exactly just release it 🥺👉👈
@@brianaustin5467 they released the full show for 48hours back in the first lockdown in march-april somewhere as the first lockdown show. So they are just reprising the songs for anyone who did not watch it back then
@Anjelica Snorcket It looks like there are a number of people here who think that they have pulled off a major strategic coup. When the final clip is posted, to what lost cause will they then turn their attention.
POV: You clicked on this video not only because you love the song but because you are procrastinating your schoolwork.
Why are coming at me like that😭✋🏻
why you gotta call me out like that geez
I haven't even started
@@MarcoPerez-wj2ej better get on that?
yeah
Sierra is just exceptional in this role.
But can we also talk about Hadley? As Raoul, he looks so adorable here! So happy to have seen his childhood friend after so many years. His expression is just so cute, especially when the managers scolded him for clapping in the middle of the performance.
PotO 25 is just perfection.
I LOVE LOVE Hadley in this role, and he much too often gets flack for his performance and it hurts my heart because he’s just so magnificent! We need more Hadley/raoul support around here! 🥰
Omg I never noticed they tell him “stop it” until you pointed it out 😂
@@silentsmurf it's such a subtle thing but it's fun when you catch it :D
They weren’t scold Raoul the were scolding the woman for clapping with him.
@Tatum Meadors I agree! I think he’s the best Raoul! However, what sucks even more is that when talking about the show and remarking on the great performances, Andrew Lloyd Webber choked when he got to Hadley Fraser and forgot his name completely! You have 3 main performers in this show, how do you not know one of their names??? 🤷♀️💛 (Especially when he did such an amazing job!👏)
Headcanon (only because it's not explicitly stated): Madame Giry secretly helped Christine rehearse this because she hates Carlotta, and when Christine tries to run away she's like 'don't act like you're bad, we both know that's bullshit, now sing the damn song'
I honestly don't think this is headcanon, this is probably just canon
Especially since the Angel is obviously insistent on Christine replacing Carlotta
I think Madame Giry making her stay is like my mom making me sing karaoke.
Cannon: the Phantom trained her, Madam Giry works for him
;)
I love how there are layers of meaning in this song: It is first the song from the opera about the fall of Carthago - the soon-to-be fallen queen singing. For Raul it's a song from his childhood friend - asking him to remeber her. And it's also the Phantom's song for Christine - asking her to think of him fondly when she's far away and free. The only one this song doesn't speak for is Christine herself, hence the remark from Meg: "The words aren't yours"
Fascinating analysis. Your point about the words not being Christine's also alludes to her lack of agency at this point - so many decisions are made for her by Erik, Raoul, the Managers, Madame Giry and Carlotta even. It isn't until later in the musical that she truly makes her own choices, and isn't overawed by the Phantom.
@@lordyeetus8843 Correct me if I’m wrong but I do believe Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again is the only song that doesn’t call back to a previous song or allude to a future. It’s also the only song where Christine doesn’t have a duet or lyrics written for her (not sure if that’s an appropriate way to describe it but I hope you understand what I’m trying to say)
Great analysis!
@@alexgray727 Oof, that hits me - the only time she has a sort of musical form of agency is when she's at one of her lowest points in the musical, emotionally distressed from everything happening with the Phantom and Raoul, and still grieving over her father.
Weirdly the character Christine’s playing is supposed to be Dido/Elissa, the mythological first queen of Carthage, who loved and was abandoned by Aeneas and lived centuries before Hannibal did. Is she supposed to be singing about Aeneas here? If so she’s taking it a lot better than she did in the Aeneid.
They're uploading this entire musical song by song, and they're doing that for us. Legends.
My brain: The Girl Scouts helped my heart grow strong
Not for me!Sorry!I like POTO, but it is not my favo musical !😊
@@ESC-lover Fair enough! What is your favorite, out of curiosity?
@@TimeandMonotony I love all that they showed us so fair, but I absolutely love Kinky Boots, Hairspray and the Wiz!
@@ESC-lover Ooh, I missed those ones! I'll have to watch the clips they've uploaded. ☺
Sierra is one of the most talented performers I’ve ever seen. Her singing voice and the way that she acts is insane!!
She is just phenomenal. I am so in awe of her voice!!!!
Your account thumbnail...
Is there evidence that there is a true story similar to POTO?
firmin and andre are like 'damn the viscount can sing should we cast him'
no
lmao 😂
🤣🤣🤣
My daughter is auditioning for the part of Christine for Broadway this week. Cant tell you what its like to hear her sing that song live in my house. Hope she gets a shot. She's amazing. (thanks for letting me brag a bit).
Good luck
Any news? Regardless, getting to audition is a huge deal! She must be amazing
When I read this, I really want to hear the beautiful voice from your daughter :) I hope the best for her
Update?
WOAHH
Being named ‘Christine’ listening to this soundtrack is both terrifying and really good for my self esteem
.....
At least it's not like my friends (who are older brother and little sister) being named Christina and Eric. Both of them are in theater.
Lol that's awesome!! My middle name is Christine!!
@@nexiondxt1230 What a coincidence
@@nexiondxt1230 No I was saying like it’s pretty cool that your friends who are named Christina and Eric are in theater
I also like the arts. I’m even taking a music class in college right now
@@brianorozco1074 that's awesome
we did it guys we got them to post the whole musical
(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
Now we only need the finale pls😔😔😔
Big deal. It hasbeen available on Dailymotion for ages.
that final layer moment tho
@@nd6316 exactly pls I need that moment 🥺🥺🥺🥺
I now realise why Sierra is my favourite Christine. She has this special, sweet quality to her voice that captures Christine’s innocence, youth, vulnerability and inexperience, while still being powerful and impactful.
A lot of talented stars have played Christine, with most singing the score as a legit, seasoned soprano. Which is still beautiful, but it doesn’t fit the character as well.
This and also Sierra's portrayal has better acting that most. A lot of Christine's are pretty one-note for me. Just constantly sorta wide-eyed and empty headed. I feel like Sierra gives her more depth.
I totally agree - I think Sierra being a coloratura soprano helps in this role a lot. They tend to be very agile singers and can do those difficult runs and high notes and all the crazy singing stunts while still sounding light and "younger". Which I agree, fits the character of Christine perfectly. And Sierra is just absolutely the best Christine ever, in my opinion.
I'm a simple woman. I see Sierra Boggess, I click.
She makes that cadenza look so easy and effortless. Love her and POTO!!!
A credenza is a piece of furnture. A cadenza is a musical passage.
Good to see that you have corrected your comment.
@@brianaustin5467 You clearly knew what she meant..such a petty comment.
@@brianaustin5467omg shut up
I like when madame giry hits the floor with her caine, it perfectly shows her character, she is passionate for the performing arts, she is tough and strict but for good reasons, she is only like that because she wants Christine to succeed in this business since she knows how hard that is
Awww thanks
@@madamegiry1450 your welcome, an underrated character from the show
Can we all appreciate how Raoul said "Brava" correctly?
(In Opera,you say "Bravo" for a male performer and "Brava" for a female performer.)
Bravo, Hadley and brava Sierra! 👏👏👏
Brassiamiiiiii
Fr
Well since it takes place in France, they say Madame/Monsieur and Raoul is a french name it would only be correct to say Bravo and nothing else since brava doesn’t exist in french but only bravo does
Italian makes that male/female distinction. It also uses "Bravo" for a mix of people, or when the gender isn't known.
I thought Brava was just the Italian translation.
It’s such a simple touch but I love it when she says “thank you so much” at 1:01 I just think it’s so cute and makes her Christine so endearing🥺
CHRISTINE:
Think of me, think of me fondly
When we've said goodbye
Remember me every so often
Promise me you'll try
On that day
That not so distant day
When you are far away and free
If you ever find a moment
Spare a thought for me
FIRMIN:
Madame! Monsieur!
CHRISTINE:
And though it's clear
Though it was always clear
That this was never meant to be
If you happen to remember
Stop and think of me
Think of August
When the world was green
Don't think about the way
Things might have been
Think of me, think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me trying too hard
To put you from my mind
Think of me
Please say you'll think of me
Whatever else you choose to do
There will never be a day
When I won't think of you
RAOUL:
Can it be?
Can it be Christine?
Brava! Brava!
Long ago
It seems so long ago
How young and innocent we were
She may not remember me
But I remember her
CHRISTINE:
Flowers fade
The fruits of summer fade
They have their seasons, so do we
But please promise me that sometimes
you will think
Of me
I really want to copy and paste in my notepad and rehearse this song but I can't on UA-cam
Wow
need it so muchhhh
Спасибо за текст песни .
I'm an OLD head, they changed the lyrics a bit from the original that I remember as a kid with Sarah Brightman.
Sierra Boggess is, without a shadow of a doubt, my favorite Christine - her portrayal is perfect and her voice is absolutely gorgeous! it’s so clear to see how passionate she is about this role! :D
She is also Andrew Lloyd Webbers favorite..
Mine too!🩷
Her voice is incredible, she has so much talent. He and Ramin are my favorite phantom and Christine.
The Show Must Go On musicals has been one of my media highlights to come out of lockdown, really uplifting!
I first heard about this channel from my mom’s friend. My mom doesn’t watch musicals or anything theater related, except movies, and her friend sent her like a trailer of the CATS show from this UA-cam channel and then my mom showed it to me and then I watched the musical
hadley is so handsome and his acting is on point, love him so much. and sierra, flawless as always
Am i the only one who thinks that in this scene he kinda looks like a young quantin tarantino?
he even brought his Eyeliner, he's so charitable.
The special effects of this show were an absolute spectacle. Broadcasting a live video the audience behind Christine to act as the “audience” of her performance was incredibly genius and added a new level to the show.
And the shots they used were just gorgeous too
It provides a great transition to "backstage".
Every audience in Opéra Garnier in 19th century: be quite,enjoying the song peacefully.
Raoul:WILL IT BE CHRISTINE?
:) me: she’s good 😃❤️
Everyone is so focused on her beautiful voice, and rightfully so. But, can we talk about her overall performance? Because she commanded the HELL outta that stage and worked her costuming!!!
I clicked faster than it took for raoul to notice Christine
copied
@@JuperLuperBruh?
@@impressionnisme5167 someone did that in 'all i ask of you' vid
@@JuperLuperBruh oh?
lol
I love how we now have some manager scenes now, along with the amazing Hadley Fraser
the fact that she's doing this while wearing pointe shoes im speechless
a QUEEN
The best Christine, hands down (and paired with Ramin, the best Phantom, and Hadley, my favorite Raoul!)
Agree :D
I feel the same way.
No gread butter and Emmy rossum is the phantom and Christine
@@daynacooper1163 no Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman are the Original Phantom and Christine. Emmy and Gerard only portrayed the role in the Movie
This is blatant Michael Crawford and Rebecca Caine erasure and I won't stand for it!! ;) (Sierra and Ramin are definitely the best of the modern era though, no contest.)
My favourite raoul and Christine and Erik is Patrick Wilson and gread butter and Emmy rossum
Dude, Sierra Boggess has one of the most incredible voices I've ever heard, and she somehow makes performing in this unbelievably difficult role look completely effortless. Not to mention, she acts the character perfectly.
Anyone else cry when the realized this is a perfect explanation of the relationship between Christine and the Phantom by the end of the show? Also I love when she starts dancing around while Raoul sings, it’s so cute.
It's still a mystery to me how did she never win a Tony, not even get a nomination
Even the way they thought of how to make Christine look like she preformed to the back of the stage at the end just shows how talented everyone is including crew. This is so amazing
Oh Hadley...he gets me every time 😭😭
“Think of me, think of me fondly, when we’ve said goodbye”
These words have new meanings now 😢
Sierra portrays Christine so well; we can see the emotions of Christine change from anxiousness to confidence during the performance. She's such a talented performer
I still can’t believe this absolute legend of a show closed on Broadway 😭😭😭
Sierra is absolutely amazing, probably the best Christine. The balance between singing and acting is perfect! The role of Christine is so demanding and difficult, so it’s truly impressive :)
One of my favourite details about the show is that the first time we see Raoul, he is an old man reminiscing about the past and buying all these objects like the Hannibal poster and the monkey, and then the first time we see him in "the past", his first lines are "long ago, it seems so long ago.....but I remember her."
aHHHHHH IM LITERALLY SCREAMING WHEN THIS IS UPLOADED 😭😭😭 SIERRA IS AMAZING🔥🔥🔥
I may not listen to opera all that often. But when something sounds as beautiful as this, I will gladly listen. And if the rest of Phantom of the Opera is as good as this part. Then, I have been missing out on some top-notch music.
Sierra has this charming innocence about her that makes her Christine so endearing. ♡
Every time I watch her in Phantom (or LND), it always seems as though she had been born to play the role. She does not act for the sake of living up to what people wanted to see, but to breathe life into the character itself. She becomes one with it as she adds her own personal twist without straying away from its core. When she is onstage, she is a completely different person. Add the fact that her brilliant portrayal is exactly how I picture Christine in the novel, regardless of however she was described there.
Also, Sierra has one of the most incredible soprano voices I have ever heard-truly effortless and emotive. It is amazing how when she sings, she does not only tell the tale that surrounds the song, but she lets you experience it as well.
Sierra is the definitive Christine in MY book.
Guys, we’ve been begging and prodding this channel to post more Phantom clips, and they keep doing it! I think it’s time we all just take a moment to say THANK YOU!
I've loved Sierra ever since I discovered who she was, she's great at portraying Christine.
I always go back to this show again and again if I suddenly feel I need a mood booster. So much that I almost remember all the lines and scene.
Sierra is excellent. This song is very challenging, and she did an excellent job. I like the emotion she shows. How her voice sometimes shakes. She will always be my favorite Christine. Such a strong voice. She has one of/ the best voices on broadway.
That was incredible. In front of so many audience, all in one take, with none of the "best of the cuts" (not just the voice, but everything else, including the facial expression). All the while still actually acting.
Omg yess, I’m obsessed with phantom & this is such a beautiful song. Funny how I just listened to this song and then I got the notification for this😂❤️
I been practicing this song so many times, my parents bought a karaoke machine not too long ago and I showed them this song and I sing it. They were very impressed! I actually want to go to college someday and try out for theater. I am also hoping that I can sing this song at summer camp in a couple weeks.
I love Sarah Brightman deeply. She is a true icon and original and her Christine is the archetype.
That said; Sierra brings everything I'd ever imagined about a perfect Christine to life!
She is beautiful, talented, self conscious but naturally confident using her perfect instrument.
I do believe Sierra is the best Christine there is or was.
Truly a one of a kind Angel of Music!
I just saw phantom live for the first time, my god it was amazing. Christie omg
I could listen to Sierra 24/7 what a lady. What a voice.
don't be shy... upload masquerade next.
I've been to 5 shows of Phantom but no singer has ever come close to Sierra, she is incredible.
Her coloratura style runs at the end are unreal - she makes them sound so smooth and deceptively easy 👏👏👏👏👏
I literally have a masterclass with Sierra in 15 minutes and this shows up on my recommend -
whattt that’s incredible!! How was it?
@@_mel_9953 It was amazing! She told me I have a pure, clear, beautiful voice! And she said “You are enough” to *me*
@@saorelba THATS AMAZING WOW she seems so kind❤️
@@_mel_9953 She really was so kind to me, and it was absolutely the best experience I’ve had in a while
@@saorelba OH MY GOD IM JEALOUS
I went on a field trip where we met her. I cried, she is my idol.
You will never understand how much I love this musical
I love listening to her breathing
It is almost impossible to find the language to express, as a reminder, that Sir Lloyd Webber's "Phantom..." will (if it hasn't already) be defined as one of the great operatic achievements in the 20th Century...and since the dawn of the 19th Century of true romantic opera. Many, many years ago when the musical first debuted I was always: "Oh, just Sir L-W, taking advantage of what was... and copying it." Have realized over some decades that what he had done is to give honor and recognition to that history and I am more than happy to say this. There is never a moment in much of the score of "Phantom..." that one's heart is not torn apart.
Sierra and Hadley are amazing, but can we say how everything else is as amazing? Like, OMG the music, the scenario, and the costumes!
QUEEN SIERRA THINGZ!! AAAAAAH i just love how she portrays the nervousness and innocence of christine as she sings for the first time. thank you for this clip!! 😔❤
I love Sierra! I wish we had more of her
It amazes me that someone can sing like that and not look Exhausted after
The first time I watched this, I was obsessed. I still am. It is so good Sierra Boggess is amazing.
0:48
As someone who did a little bit of theater
That was a damm smooth scene change
The Shows DO Go On thanks to you and the perfect crispness of this performance. So many people would have missed an incandescent angel blessing heaven with her talent then SLAPPING the stage, a legend.
"Think of August when the world was green don't think about the way things might have been "😍
I've heard Sierra sing live when she performed her concert. Her voice sounds even stronger live. I hope Sierra gets the chance to be in a Hollywood movie musical one day. It would also be great if Ramin Karimloo starred opposite her.
her voice is so smooth and pretty
Still stunning after all these years. A timeless composition brought to life by the voice of a lifetime. Brava, indeed.
the lady in the movie almost sounds goofy singing those super low notes at the end, but Sierra fucking kills it wow
Who still watches this magical video? Cause I do and always will watch this! Sierra has a really dreamy voice 😭💖
YES
Meeeee
She's so beautiful
I've seen a rendition of this with my mom and my best friend (her first musical ever!) I literally saw her eyes light up when this song came on and thats how I got her to love musicals
I began to remember the city where I was born, It brings memories and tears to my eyes. It’s been too long, gotta visit it again(just to get all emotional)
I loved her singing.
such a pure voice
Sierra’s voice is so angelical! Ugh i love this showww
Sierras just absolutely breathtaking. She takes our air and uses it for her voice, what a woman.
This is probably my favorite song from the phantom of the opera.
These stage were fabulous
Sierra Boggess is the BEST Christine Daaé ever!
I agree!
I can imagine the Phantom seething under his breath because someone took his box so he can't watch his student perform, but he is also proud of her because he can hear her voice.
YES ANOTHER ONE WE'RE SO CLOSE TO GETTING THE FULL SHOW FOR FREE
Whoever doesn't marvel at Sierra's voice isn't a human with a sense of what the human voice can achieve in decibels and make it into music! Brava is so right!!!
The song also foreshadowed the ending: Christine is free, and this is Phantom's words for her.
I did not Think about that
thats what i always thought!
I love Hadley’s part.
Please show this again!! I need more Phantom in this lockdown!! 😩❤️
Just go to Dailymotion. It has been there for years.
*Y'all I've never seen this version, but I'm in love.*
Edit: I have seen it several times now in the course of 48hrs and I love it.
My most very best favorite Show of all time!!! Never gets old and I never tired of listening and watching this show!!! Thank You so very much!!!
Christine Daae, that was unbelievable!
Sierra nails this. Wonderful performance
I love Sierra Boggess. It was flawless going from one note to the next I am so glad she was chosen for the 25th anniversary. My only complaint was the chandelier not crashing .
Sierra is beautiful, truly.
