I saw this in NYC in 1994. I couldn't believe the calibre of her performance, it was otherworldly, it took my breath away. We saw 6 Broadway shows during our visit and her performance topped them all.
I came here wanting to enjoy her singing this again, as I'm still in awe with her and the whole show when I was lucky to experience it live 8 years ago in London when she did a semi-staged production! Her voice and the whole experience were just goosebumpingly heavenly throughout!
I saw a much older Glen Close at the Semi staged Sunset Boulevard in 2016 at the London Coliseum,the voice was nothing like this but it didn’t matter as she has the elusive Star Quality. Moving forward I saw the stripped back reimagined Sunset Boulevard last year at the Art Deco….. Savoy Theatre with Nicole Scherzinger ….i loved it even more…… It is now in previews in New York…….if you can Go….❤
I was lucky enough to see her play the role of Norma Desmond on Broadway back in 2017. Her performance was simply breathtaking. Hoping she reprise the role soon, preferably in the UK!
I am at the Sydney opera house tonight watching the show. Sarah Brightman. I am watching this during the intermission now because I need to remind myself how good this song can be. It’s really really TOO big of a difference!!
@@liv6531Sarah is not here in all Tuesdays and Wednesday matinee shows 🤣 hahaha jk but honestly saying, I love the shows too and I still think it’s worth it ❤
@@liv6531 I know tho Sarah is not on any Tuesdays shows or Wednesdays matinee 🤣 hahah but seriously speaking, I still think it’s worth it. I’m like u too I really love the show ❤ I’m not saying Sarah isn’t a good artist. It’s just that everytime I watch her in musicals, I don’t think I’m watching a Christine Daae, I’m not watching a Norma Desmond. I’m just watching a Sarah Brightman. She’s a good singer yes, but instead of focusing on expressing the emotions, feeling and performing as the character, she’s just showing out how good she is a a singer. I feel I’m just watching a recital when I watch her, not that she’s performing in a musical (if you know what I mean). However, watching Glenn, it’s a completely different story - I see a complete Norma Desmond portrayed to a T in the flesh. I don’t mean to criticise and undeniably Sarah is still a talented singer. It’s just she has her unique style, but maybe this style isn’t my taste personally? It’s like how I love Sierra Boggess, Jeremy Jordan, Leotyne Price etc but I’ve also heard many people not liking these talented artists. Just personal preference/taste probably
Tell you a little secret: try the Silvie Paladino and you will find a huge surprise than Sarah ‘s version (yes, I tried both and you won’t regret for Silvie’s version ❤)
Yes there is. She can't turn back time. Apparently there's talk of a film of Sunset Boulevard. Miss Close is now 76 years old. And in the show, she's supposed to be having an affair with a young man, who is around 25. Hello???? The ship sailed, about thirty five years ago. Time to hang up the turban.
