And this is how you know when someone is obsessed with musical theater.

I don't know there is just something about John Owen-Jones voice that is just perfection to me. Especially when he sings this song it's just so clear and crisp and ugh I love it so much.

I saw Alfie in his last performance as Jean Valjean on Broadway and he got like an almost 3 minute standing ovation afterwards. I then got to meet him afterwards and not only is he an incredible performer, but he's an authentic person too!

Ramin is amazing! Known as one of the best phantoms, next to Crawford himself, original phantom in Love Never Dies (POTO sequel) original Gleb in Anastasia, and played so many roles in Les Mis and POTO! And here's the kicker- he taught himself how to sing and didn't learn to read sheet music until later! He taught himself how to act using books, and Andrew Lloyd Weber handpicked him to play phantom in LND. Literal talent and skill. Love him! [If you saw Phantom of the Opera on RU-vid, that was him on the 15th anniversary!]

I saw Les Miserables, with Alfie Boe. We were 3 rows back, and when he sang, we were so close. Something I think I will remember always.

Colm Wilkinson set the standard for me on this song. He set the bar so high. Really a favorite song of mine. Thnx for posting this! Grtz from Holland ❤️🤘🏻

Could you react to Ramin Karimloo & Sierra Boggess in the 25th Anniversary of Phantom of the Opera?? Please.... ♡

John Owen-Jones (or just JOJ) is absolutely incredible. He is best known for his stunning turns as Jean Valjean in Les Mis as well as the Phantom in PotO. You should definitely look up any video of him singing Bring Him Home (solo) and Music of the Night and the title song from Phantom.

John-owen Jones is actually my favourite Phantom followed by Ramin, That man's voice always sends a shiver down my spine

Alfie Boe and John Owen- Jones have both played JVJ many times on Broadway and the West End. Ramin (pronounced Ra-mean) also played JVJ on Broadway. JOJ and Ramin have also played the Phantom. Alfie is actually a classically trained opera singer. Definitely check out some of his opera stuff.

Songs performed by Diana Ankudinova - all live! She lives each story of the song by herself and through her feelings shakes our hearts!!! We rejoice in the light like children, or our soul is squeezed by sadness! Diana left no one indifferent...no one!!!= ))) Diana's tone gives the audience goosebumps!!! It's like a diamond with its own hue!!!=)))))

You should definitely react to more Ramin Karimloo!! I’d recommend him singing Music of the Night (I do also love him singing the role of Gleb in Anastasia, as well as Enjolras, Valjean, and Marius in Les Mis)

I'm more impressed by Tara's wardrobe i mean i've watched like a million videos of her and she always wears a new outfit and she looks amazing

John Owen Jones played the role in London and broadway multiple times. He was 26 when he first played the role. He is amazing and one of my favorites. Glad you discovered how awesome he is! They are all great.

What a detailed analysis. Glad you love the incomparable Alfie Boe.

Ramin, Alfie and JOJ in this give me goosebumps! Beautiful!

Can you do a reaction to Ramin Karimloo singing Till I Hear You Sing, and Sierra Boggess singing Love Never Dies both from 'Love Never Dies'? I would love to hear your opinion on them!

Ramin is not a trained singer. He is my favorite Phantom. Speaking of Phantom could you react to Ramin’s Music Of The Night? Rumor has it he does not breathe before hitting the A flat.

That last note about brought tears to my eyes. Perfection.

nerding out with you... this song just crushes me in all the right ways (same with empty chairs, OMG) and I had not heard all the vocalists here so that was a lovely gift you gave.... this and Ted Neely singing Gethsemane (I did get to see him perform at a 20 or 25th anniv) are my favs upon many other amazing performances. Danke darlin' ... made my day brighter. *edit - i LOVE that you said pouchier*

Also listen to the four valjeans (Alfie boe, John Owen Jones, colm Wilkinson and Simon bowman). I think there's a video on RU-vid called the four valjeans lead by colm Wilkinson.

John Owen jones and Allie Obe on one video??? Ugh, such legends!!! You gotta see John Owen Jones singing music of the night! So beautiful ❤️

What about “One day more” from the 10th anniversary Les Misérables concert? Or “Stars,” “Javert’s suicide,” or one of my personal favs from that concert: ”Empty chairs and empty tables”

Tara, Fra is actually from the cast of "Les Mis" the movie!

Finally! She's back with the technical reactions. Loved this video!!

The Valjean Quartet. It's amazing! Which includes Colm. Perfection realized. Just splendid.

The beauty of Ramin's vocal is he is ALL NATURAL!! He has said in many interviews he has never had a single vocal lesson! He is one of my favorite Broadway performers especially in Phantom.

So beautiful, so tender. I get emotional any time I hear this sung as well as it was here.

AB at the end is just EVERYTHING. and your vocal comments are just amazing. Why I keep coming back. Please keep giving us this gift.

Home Free does a great version of this featuring Austin Brown in a live performance. So good.

I love your reactions to these singers! When you explain things and do the playbacks it really makes sense to me. Makes me wish I could sing. My joy is listening to music and vocalists! Some one has to do it. LOL. Thank you

Sooo gorgeous! Colm Wilkinson & Alfre Boe are my faves for Jean Valjean

If you want to listen to beautiful harmonies and to geek out at Musical Theatre, please react to Ramin Karimloo and Hadley Fraser singing "Empty Chairs at Empty Tables." Those two men singing together is just absolutely sublime and hearing that duet makes me melt every time I hear it.

I played this in a brass band i played the soprano solo, it was a monumental peice to play for sop and making the instrument sing and give that rich sound was exhausting especially getting the breathing right for the last note, which felt like it lasted for ever! i love this arrangement.

Hello from Mexico 🇲🇽 Love you Tara!!! ❤🙌🏻

I love Ramin who gave him the right to be that handsome

When Ramin sang I about died. His voice. Wow.

Ultimate theater girling!

Les Mis will always be one of my favourite musicals. The music is just ... *chefs kiss*

thank you for lightening my day with this :)

It's such a beautiful, haunting song...

Nearly 600k subscribers tara!!! Let corona not stop us tarabites!!! Loved your reaction as always😁

Can you react to a song from "Hamilton"? Being a theatre kid myself, I would love to see a reaction to any of the songs!

Stunningly beautiful! 🌹

Tara has an incredible voice 💝💝

My singing teacher has challenged me to sing in my head voice and I am going to attempt this song in soprano. I have been watching as many different versions of it as I can get my hands on which is how I stumbled across this and I am so happy I did. I adore your enthusiasm. And I am now going to track down some of your other videos and disappear down the RU-vid rabbit hole getting nothing else done today - I blame you entirely and I don't even care! lol

Totally agree with your thoughts on joj, seen him live twice and blew my mind

I’ve seen Alfie boe live a few times and he is unreal, especially when signing this

This was beautiful.

Your entire point about the last line of the song is EXACTLY how I feel about the last line of "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again" from Phantom. Wish more performers would sing the last not of that song like this as well.

This song. Those voices... OMG!

Thanks for the amazing content . 😀

Ha ha, you’re so cute. Very beautiful performance by these guys.

Spine-tinglingly good!

Goosebumps...and the one on the right..50/50 ❤😎😊🤣

YES! More John Owen Jones PLEASE!!!!!

I LOVE THE SOUND OF A MAN’S VOICE! MALE SINGERS HAVE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL DEEP AND RICH VOICES I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT

Please do a reaction of Colm Wilkinson singing this song, apparently it was composed for his voice and for me is the most amazing version

You look so beautiful ,and thx for your help for us begin singer

I've seen the stage version,the special on PBS,and the movie,loved them all,my favorite is I love him,close second,bring him home!😊👍

Oh my gosh! This was a GREAT reaction! Keep em coming Tara! Would love to see you to react to SoHyang “Everyone”.

Am I the only one that screamed “Ramin!!! Not ramen!!!!” When she pronounces his name like the food??? 🤣🤣🤣

Tara, please keep reacting to musicals songs, I love this!

Love your analysis. Home-ah. That's worth it's weight in gold

I would love to see your reaction to a less known group called Vocal Point. They have an incredible arrangement of Nearer my God to Thee. There's also a live version of the song 😃. Anyway great video as always!

Such a pretty video ^_^ also Tara you look super pretty in this video! (Not that you don't in others lol) But I love the lipstick, your bun and the top :D very well paired together! I wish Hugh Jackman could've been in the video because I love his voice.

You must do the At home version of You CAN'T STOP THE BEAT from Hairspray. Such a blast!!! Love you're channel. I'm not singing inclined but enjoy it ALL still the same. Thank you for broadening my horizons!

Goosebumps!

It is totally on pitch. He is a gorgeous singer.

6:23 really got me 🤣🤣 You’re the best, Tara

I love you, you have an amazing voice

This was great, she's not only a music lover, but knows the craft and is good at analysis, but is familiar with most of the singers. I'd be interested if she did similar on Nathan Pacheco's version of the same song. Pretty please?

New to your channel love Les Mis loved this arrangement .❤️🥰

You need to hear John Owen Jones sing this in Welsh, it is so beautiful

I don’t know if it’s just because I’m a big fan but I think it’s funny that when all the voices come together you can hear Ramin above them all lol

John Owen-Jones is incredible. I've seen him twice as the Phantom and once as JVJ. Such a powerhouse!

Please react to Acapop Kids! Their covers of Fix you, Bohemian Rhapsody, High Hopes and Breathing

John Barrowman and Daniel Boys "I Know Him So Well"

I WANT TO CRY

Do more Ramin Karimloo please!!!

does anyone notice that tara has 632k subscribers now? i personally think we can get to anywhere between 650k- 750k by the end of this year!

Ooooph...all that vocal power in harmony. Overwhelming. Speaking of musical theatre, I'm really curious about your reaction to one of the most unique voices that has ever sung on the stage. I've never been clear about whether she's a freak of nature, or has trained in a specific way to bring everything forward in her mask so powerfully. I'm talking about Broadway legend Betty Buckley, Here's a clip from the 80's of her singing two songs: "Over You" and "Memories." Also, I've always been in awe of her vowel "E," and I wonder if you'd deconstruct exactly what she's doing to get to send vowel across the room so powerfully. Also...can guys sing it like that? Thanks so much for all you do, Tara! One day, when money starts flowing again in New York City, I intend to take a couple voice lessons from you! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5w-pVb0ST2w.html

And you also look good, I love your hair that way.

Luv ur vids and I will always love it 💝♥️🎆🎇

Tara if you have a good set of headphones, go back and listen again through them, WOW!! My Bose headphones made a huge difference!!!

The one you really like "Mr. Owens" plays on broadway lol that's why you like him so much

Last singer I got chills

You can tell the guy in the blue shirt is singing the melody during the clip with him singing with the guy in black (sorry, idk their names). You can hear the tension in his voice, as you see it in his mouth/lips. The one singing harmony has a more relaxed jaw and his voice demonstrates that.

I know I'm 1 year late but please take a moment to watch John owen jones on This Morning (youtube video). It's from 11 years ago but oh my god it's stunning.

Scott was singing the lower harmony. The first time I saw it I thought it was Simon.

Alfie has perfect pitch, that is background noise for sure!

That 4-part harmony. Gods. Just... yeah.

Yesss great song and reaction. Ptx happy now reaction plz

Spent most of this with my mouth open!

Love to see your reaction to anything by Irelands newest star - Dermot Kennedy. BEAUTIFUL natural raspy voice and amazing storyteller.

JOJ and Ramin are the best Phantoms ever and I will die on this hill

Check out TELL MY FATHER as performed by Brendan McAlester. You will feel SOMETHING, guaranteed (it became my new Audition song for whenever we can do that again)

You should react to Brandy "Without you" live Bet Honors. Amazing vocals

I've never seen her so in love lmao it's cute
