Far beneath the majesty and splendour of the Paris Opera House, hides the Phantom in a shadowy existence. Shamed by his physical appearance and feared by all, the love he holds for his beautiful protégée Christine Daaé is so strong that even her heart cannot resist.
The musical opened at Her Majesty’s Theatre on 9 October 1986 with Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in the leading roles, and there have been dozens of productions worldwide since then. Now in its 35th record-breaking year, The Phantom of the Opera continues to captivate audiences at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London’s West End, after more than 11,000 performances.

I love the phantom's intensity. If you watch his eyes you can see the emotions he feels and you can feel his pain and love.
Something is just so haunting and beautiful about Gerard's version. It's not technically good like Ramin's but Gerard's voice is like velvet. This version has something magical that none of us(the one's who love this version) can explain...the curse of music.( and i know I'm just going to get ripped for just saying that but I don't care)
I believe that this is the best song in the whole movie. Every time I listen to this specific song my eyes tear up, his voice is beautiful and smooth...
That was the most beautiful part of the movie. In my opinion I believe this was the most romantic, sensous, passionate and sweet scene I've ever seen.
I knew he was talented, but I never knew he could sing like this, until I saw this movie. His voice, his acting makes your heart ache for this Phantom that he plays so well...
Everytime im bored studying, playing or.drawing, i always accompany it with this music. Cause it makes u feel sad yet happy mood.
4:21 "Oh, she just fainted. No worries, happens all the time. No reason to interrupt my singing."
This shows that he is more of an actor than a singer. Rather than striving for the perfect note he instead fills the song with emotion, he becomes the Phantom.
Am I the only one who can watch this over and over without getting tired of it? C'mon, it can't just be me. When he hits that high note, it's like... O.O
seeing how Gerard Butler young was in this movie , I still can't believe he voices Hiccup's dad in How to train your dragon and I almost didn't recognize his voice almost
She was a 17-year-old high school student when the film was made; 18 when it was released. How does a 17-year-old learn facial expressions of wonder and terror as she does in this film. And sing like angel. Amazing.
A little trivia: It might interest you to know that the mannequin actually was her. They couldn't get the wax copy to look good enough, so they just had the actress pose completely still for that shot.
I don't know why people say they dislike his voice. I think it's beautiful. Just because he isn't first and foremost and opera singer doesn't mean he can't sing at all.
Gerard should just sit in my room and sing me to sleep. So beautiful.
Thank you for this beautiful post. It really inspired me to sing this and also some more show songs. Gerard Butler was awesome as the phantom in this clip. My very best regards.
It's hard to believe he had no professional singing experience before this. He's amazing.
This is my favorite scene in the whole movie because I enjoy seeing the Phantom pour his soul out for Christine to see. Beautiful.
Gerard Butler will always be the best Phantom in my eyes. Such feeling, such singing *.*
This song and scene gives me chills! I love Gerard Butler even more that I know he can sing!
I showed this to a friend of mine who'd never seen Phantom and he said he'd never look at Gerard Butler the same way again...
"Turn your face away from the garish light of day," Gerard is THE perfect Phantom. Get chills everytime.
Words cant express how relaxing this song is.
Gerard Butler as the Phantom is absolutely beautiful.. It melts my heart. His voice. His face. His hair. Is it just me, or is it simply wonderful in every detail? Enchanting, by all means.
I listen to all types of music, from dubstep to pop to classical, but nothing moves me more than broadway music. the amount of emotion that they add to a beautiful story is truly stunning. I saw this live in New York as a young child, and I have never, and will never, forget it.
Always gives me chills..
So wonderful
I don't know why Christine didn't fall in love with him right then and there
And that is how you bring a woman to the dark side.
Re-correction. Respect for a man who sang that song flawlessly in his audition for Andrew Lloyd Webber himself.
Sometimes I fall asleep to it because it's so beautiful!!! And Gerard Butler is an amazing phantom!!
I had NO IDEA Gerard Butler could sing, until this. It's surprising. He has a BEAUTIFUL voice.
to me this powerful song tells about the beauty and greatness of darkness
If my stalker could sing like him, I'd be down.
This song has an inexplicable effect on me. It makes my heart swell and my blood slow in anticipation of each note, each word. It's beautiful in every sense of the word, and it possesses my very soul every time I listen to it.
Love this song and Gerard's singing
His voice is amazing...I LOVE HIM SOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!
This cracks me up...she goes from a freshly washed face in her dressing room to this black eyeshadow look during this song... Magic!
Gerard Butler's voice is amazing and he is a great actor!! I like him!!
I have been singing this since I was a very little girl. I saw the show live when I was about six, and was in love with it ever since. Only shows, the darkness is not something to fear, but to embrace and let it betroth you. What I thought was beautiful in the light, turned to be foolish and cross. The dark reveals the true beauty you cannot see with your eyes. 3
As far as I'm concerned, Erik is the most tragic character in all of literature. He loves Christine, but has no idea how to convey it. He desperately wants to be a part of the world that rejected him, and hopes that Christine will be his link to that world. He never developed any social skills, and so has no outlet for his genius. When Christine chooses Raul, He tries to hate her, but can't. In the end he can't reconcile his love for Christine with his own ambitions, and he lets her go. Tragic.
Love him. How can someone resist that man?!? Mutated face or not, I'd take him over raoul 100%. Somehow, it seems to make him look more attractive. And that voice... ;D He's so sweet and just wants to be loved. Even though he's a killer.. and also is insane. The world's cruelty made him that way. He's just lonely and extremely insecure.
OH my God. How beautiful. What a voice!
I think Gerry did a wonderfu job. I spent the first thirty years of my life with music.I am a retired concert violinist and I've heard many people sing this song and I can say that without a doubt, Gerry Butler did a better job than a lot of the other singers did in the same role.
I fell in love with the phantom. :)
He got so much criticism but had we (the people) had our chance to vote.. WE LOVE HIS VOICE and his interpretation of Erik... Gerry please keep on singing to us.. we love you,, and your voice.
i watched this movie in choir last year, and every time the Phantom sang, especially this song, i was like in a trace much like Christine appeared to be. I just stared at the screen in complete awe. I'm still in awe when ever i hear or see this movie. Gerard Butler portrayed the Phantom very well.
I love this song so much! when he sings its like magic!
I love the rawness and emotion and even vulnerability in the way Gerard Butler sings and depicts the Phantom. So moving (albeit in a slightly creepy way, which I think is the intended effect!)
I sure would have chosen to sing the music of the night with this gorgeous man..for life ;)
Gerard Butler really does put so much feeling into his singing its incredible.
I have never seen this movie, but I am going to read the book. This song really makes me shiver. Plus the phantom's high note was really great! Love Opera!
the lyrics of this song are so seductive
He is one of the best actors they could have chosen to play the phantom un my opinion he is amazing! 3
I can't ever see this enough looking at HIS face and listening to that VOICE... love love love. That is all :-)
I bet the phantom was the only person in the world who got to see THOSE bedroom eyes. I bet even Raoul couldn't get that look out of her. ;)
sexiest phantom EVER!!!!! I choose him over raoul any day
i sang this one year back when I was in Vocal, we didn't have Orchestra, just vocal. i fell in love with this song when i saw the movie, can't believe i didn't realize it until i saw it on a list of movies he was in that this Gerard as the Phantom, and that he did his own singing, Great voice and great performance Gerry!
Out of everyone who's ever sang this song I've always felt that this guy did the best interpretation of it. Unlike all the other people who just sing it loudly and think they can get away with it.
his voice, it freaking touches my heart each time
i love this version mainly because Gerard Butler can sing like a champ
Gerard is my favorite Phantom. Love his voice and ooh, so handsome.
Me: I shall be productive today and make all of my homework!
Phantom of the opera videos: Lol, nope. *CAPE SWOOSH*
my first time seeing this movie 2013 and I love it! love it! Gerard Bulter is just the most!!! but in real life a guy like that, I would RUN!!! I love the fantasy!!!! In this day & age there is none of those left to the imagination???
I believe being creepy was the point. But you have to love him anyway.
love this movie, Gerard was the best. So crazy seductive and sexy and the strength in his voice is amazing. Gives me chills every time.
*sigh...never gets old ♥
how can you possibly not love someone as that ?
When I first saw this I was waiting for the moment he takes off his clothes and has the spartan armor on and scream ''THIS IS OPERA!!!''
When I hear this, I'm always in love with the Phantom.
Thanks Gerad Butler and Mr. Webber! :)
I've always pitied the Phantom and favored him. I dont know why but he attracts me:)
In my opinion, I think Gerard is veri underrated in this role, I personally think he did a fantastic job at it!! I can never understand why there are so many people judged him wiv so many -ve comments...I like his voice in this song as well as the Phantom!! Even if his look is not taken into account and just listen to his voice, he has one of the most passionate, sexy and beautiful voice!! How can others ALWAYS bashing about his voice and ignore all the strength he has!?:(
Omg I just love his look when he is walking behind the candles!!! :3
No one can play 'PHANTOM ' the way gerard can...seriously.
this is way too brilliant. just pulls you into their world. art and poetry at their best
I love so much this scene. Great voice Gerard :)
Stuck in the world of the phantom... for ever
Respect the man who can hit that high note
Gerald Butler was an amazing Phantom. thats all i have to say
its so nice to hear someone your age say so ! Not that im some old geezer (im 41), but your comment gives me hope that younger generations can both recognize and appreciate the beauty in classical, opera, and other types of music that arent necessarily "main stream" these days. There's so many talented people out there who can make beautiful music, and its so under-appreciated by lots of young people. I saw Phantom as a teenager (on stage in NYC) many years ago, and it blew me away !
She had such a beautiful & soulful connection to him. I would have been more interested in what this relationship turned out to be, more than Christine & Raoul's.
1:48... Oh lord have mercy...
Ramin is my favorite Phantom, but I will always love Gerard Butler in this movie. He was my first Phantom and I think he did a great job.
This is my favorite song in the movie
Gerard Butler did an amazing job
His voice is so good!
I've decided the part when she closes her eyes is foreshadowing for how she regrets choosing Raul... lol
his voice is so tender! i love it!
God he makes an amazing Phantom. His voice is beautiful 3
I really want Love Never Dies played by this cast. Just because this movie has earned a special place and sentimental place in my heart. Even if it ended up not that great, I would be grateful for it.
He was about 32 at the time and she was 16 when filming began. When they went out in public together, they had a chaperone. Emmy turned 17 during filming and was old enough to consent to the "Grope" scene, we see here...in all it's beautiful romance...and commented about having to wear those tight corsets that the real original Christine, from the 1800's had to wear. She commented that she could hardly breathe at times, after 14 hrs a day in them. Great production by Joel for 90 million pounds.
Gerard Butler, your voice is very surprisingly magnificent. Lovely.
I was mesmerized by Eric and his voice to begin with. Then when I found out it was Gerard Butler...BOOM! When a good looking man can sing with such beauty.
I remember when this first came out on DVD when I was a teen. My best friend and I were both /horribly/ infatuated with the Phantom. I remember we used to re-play the moment where he turns around suddenly and sings "darkest dreams" (1:28) over and over again because we thought it was so sexy! God, we were weirdos.
My parents always tried to engulf me in musicals including this. I remember this soundtrack playing on saturdays and I hated it. However as an adult I really can appreciate the story and the music and the power that it holds. Good stuff.
Gerard will always be remembered for this movie and song.
Yes he did. He used to play in a band with some of his mates when he was a lawyer, or before that. He had 24 extra singing lessons to get it right for this movie. ALWebber wanted his voice, a slightly rock n' roll ballad type voice and Emmy sang her part too. She was ballet and singing trained since she was 4 or 6yrs old and is the most perfect Christine ever.
For me personally, this scene is the best of all time in my lifetime.
He's hypnotizing her :)
Gerard carried the mask better than any of the other actors that played Erik. They are good in their own way but crawford freaked me out and ramin's voice wasn't dark enough. Gerard knows how to be dark and dangerous. Plus....he's so cute!
Ok. wow. he can definitely cure the random insomnia I get at times
Omg I love his voice
Notice that when he says, "Open up your mind! Let your fantasies unwind..." at 2:29, she looks down at his crotch. It's those little nuances that really bring these types of performances to life. It's a very sensual song.
