my 3 favorite things about this video: 3) how adorable is Harry Child? I mean seriously...he is so cute I wish he was my brother 2) their voices 1) how HOT Ramin looks
@BarrelsPolesandJack he started in rock bands because the Phantom he saw in Toronto did. Colm Wilkinson was the phantom he saw that made him want to do this. and that was where Colm started in rock bands so that was where Ramin started. and now he has followed the man in 2 role the Phantom and Jean Valjean in Les Miserable
He played the Phantom in the 25th Anniversary, and the first showings of Love Never Dies in London. But he isn't the one that plays him in the Recording of Love Never Dies, that's the Australian Cast.
@mimmar3891 im not sure where but i think hes extended his time in the west end to march and then hes going over to the US it will be worth the wait he was amazing in phantom of the opera and love never dies
@mimmar3891 aww i thought hed just extended his time over here! its just hes been the best phantom ever and i dont want to trek all the way across the pond to see him in a show again but i think he is going later this year
I noticed they flipped the last two lines of the song around. It was supposed to go " To the splendor, and the glory, to the truth of the beauty underneath. You'll except it, you'll embrace it. Let me show you the beauty underneath."
Awesome song (not sure about the kid)!! Isn't it SOOOOO REFRESHING to see a musical theatre performer (yes, I know it isn't his complete background) to have other sides/genres to him as well??? What a sexy rocker and man, has he got talent!! He can sing anything and he will make it his and it always works!!
I know! I was absolutely floored when I got to see how well and convincingly he could sing country music. He has such flexibility in what he can do with his voice, and he makes it seem so easy! He can belt out the Phantom theme or sink his teeth into a twangy country song, either one done on the spot like it’s the most natural thing in the world. (And it’s all the more amusing when you consider his natural speaking voice-what sounds to me like a soft Irish brogue!) 😄
@BethMayallMcQueen Well, I'm in the U.S., and I'm sad I've never gotten to see Ramin. But it doesn't look like the show is coming to Broadway at all. :( I'm so disappointed -- I can't afford to go to London to see the show.
@BethMayallMcQueen Is he going to Toronto? I could probably make that work, since it's still unclear if it will ever make it to New York. Sorry that you might be losing him! He's truly amazing.
@BethMayallMcQueen I'll have to keep checking! I know Love Never Dies will definitely not be here in the US by March though. I don't think it will be until at least 2012. :( I wonder what Ramin is up to! Maybe he'll be taking over as the Phantom in the original show?
@mimmar3891 aww i shall have to check and let you know when he is going over! i know he wouldnt want to dissapoint all you folks in the US maybe hell do one year there one year here that would be fair
I was caught a bit off-guard, but I’m thinking they did that on purpose to avoid doing that scream. I’m thinking it’s either because they wanted a more melodious ending that showed how the song would’ve ended if Gustave had reacted to the unmasking positively, or simply because they didn’t want to tax Harry’s voice with that scream. (And it did sound like he was already having a bit of trouble hitting some of the highest notes for Gustave’s part. Though he did a great job overall!) Also, since the ending would normally be done in the context of the unmasking, it wouldn’t make as much sense for unfamiliar people without that element.
Hm? Was that a reply to another comment (it’s showing up here as a solo comment...RU-vid seems to do that a lot with older comments), or are you asking something you don’t quite wish to finish? (I think I can guess what that is, if so. XD )
On stage, the theater is dark, the bright lights blinding, so you don't see the audience. Plus, in costume, you can lose yourself in the story. But in concert, it different...the kid was nervous...
