    I love how he changes his voice to imitate Piangi!!! This song is just fantastic.

      I think this is the only version I've heard where Eric actually does that, pretty nice detail. I mean, really, you're gonna kill off a guy and then imitate him, you think your pupil of yours can't tell the difference between your voice and this fat spanish guy who she's been working under for quite a while as well?
      On a side note, between the piano piece and the 'offkey' part of what we hear, I would love to actually watch a full 'Don Juan Triumphant'.

      I love how him singing the word 'prey' is our first indicator that this is not Piangi. It's incredibly subtle, but also not his voice.
      The second indicator being how cold his hands are further into the song, as indicated by Christine's reaction by retreating away. She knows something is wrong, but isn't sure if she's just being paranoid or not.
      By then, the audience is already invested in the song. And goodness knows, the show must go on. Yet she only knows for sure when she leans down to touch his face with hers, feeling the hard mask beneath.

    When she's behind him during the part where she's singing about their bodies together, seducing him, and his hands turn to fists into his pants and then shake because he's so overwhelmed. God damn. His performance as the phantom is amazing! He loved her and wanted her so badly the poor man was about to have a freaking stroke. I love that this is a common trait between actors of the phantom. But I love how Ramin makes the most use of this trait

      I caught that too when I watched the 25th anniversary performance. It was honestly a perfect detail, because we all know that feeling he had in that moment of finally feeling desired by Christine not only shocked him, but felt very much like a dream come true. Simple things like that really make a character realistic and not feel so fictional.

    Ramin has this hauntingly seductive and beautiful color to his voice. Some of his notes just float in his register and give you chills...he completely ruined the role of the Phantom for me- I can’t listen to any other the Phantom beside him! He really embodied the Phantom in acting and vocals. His voice is completely addicted and really makes you feel like Christine- getting lured in by that voice. 💛

    I think that Christine recognises his voice (He had been giving her singing lessons for 3 months prior), so that most likely gives it away for her. I noticed in the 25th DVD that she looks to Raoul. He most likely noticed the fear in her eyes and responded :)

    In the last parts when he's saying "all I ask off you" makes it so much more emotional after reading the book understanding that he wasn't as awful as he seemed and that Christine actually did fall in love with him at one point and all he wanted was to live a normal life with the woman he loved. If you've never read the book I highly suggest you do cause it puts a whole new perspective on the characters

      Kyla HInt - I agree,the book really gives a lot of information. In POTO he is kissed for the first time - not even his mother kissed him. He thought the woman would die if he kissed her. What I love about LND is they make love - both virgins. Then he has a child. Never in his life could he imagine these things. In the book, however, he tries to die of a broken heart because he does let C leave with idiot Raoul.

    • @Makeji
      @Makeji 6 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      Ana Sofia - thank you. I will get the Kay novel. I didn't want to read the original, but when I did, I loved Erik even more. I am addicted to POTO25 and LND - LND even more than POTO these days. All through POTO, I knew she loved Erik. Never understood the Raoul thing - especially after reading the book. He was such a child. The way ALW portrayed him in LND fits with the Raoul in the book. A spoiled child. He couldn't handle Christine's gift and what Erik meant to her. I am annoyed that Erik was portrayed as a murderer in POTO. In his past, he was, but the Persian said that he made Erik stop that. Buquet died because he was nosing around and got caught in the torture chamber (his fault) and there was no Piangi in the book TO kill. It is very easy to accept Kay's interpretation based on the LeRoux book. After the Persian and Raoul were rescued from the Torture chamber. They are taken to Erik's house and are nursed back to health by Christine.

    • @Makeji
      @Makeji 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Ana Sofia - Me, too. I talk to myself about them all the time! The music is in my head, for sure. Raoul was the childhood sweetheart and Christine was forced to grow up. Yes, the way Sierra played her in POTO25 - the only version I've seen. I'm a senior lady and never saw POTO because of an argument I had with my late husband in 1991! I bought tickets to the show in LA, but they were for the day after Michael Crawford left and hubby refused to go. Took it out on POTO. One thing that might have influenced Sierra's choices was that she and Ramin had just done LND together and this was the first time they had done POTO together. Their chemistry is amazing. Raoul would not have been allowed to marry Christine - the brother was trying to stop their elopement when he died (was killed?). What bothers me about LND is her doubt about Erik and wanting to be with him. She's constantly arguing with herself and even seems to want to leave with Raoul, despite the fact that everytime Erik shows up she wants to kiss and hold him. Just ordered the Kay book and look forward to reading it. Since no one else seems to be posting, I don't see a problem with long posts. :)

    • @Makeji
      @Makeji 6 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      Ana Sofia - Many posts that I've seen suggest that POTO25 is the ultimate performance. The only objections tend to be about Michael and Sarah - the originals. I think this is our good fortune and I really appreciate that ALW decided to do a full blown production instead of actors standing around singing with scripts in their hands. They did the Oz production of LND with different actors which I really don't care for, much prefer to watch the bootlegged videos of Rierra. One of my first experiences with LND was the death scene in the Oz LND and all I could say was: oh, she died. When I watch that scene with Rierra I cry every time - just like I cry when Erik sings to the music box and C returns and he tells her he loves her. Back to the comment you made about C not telling R that she loved him in return, I agree. Am going to see the production of LND in April so will see all the changes. I have finally forgiven Mark for being such a purist so many years ago - I'm kind of that way myself now.

    So I saw this on Pinterest I think but I wanted to share. At around 5:45 , when Christine pulls off the phantoms mask, he whispers “damn” under his breath. Correct me if this is wrong, but the fact thing I saw this on said that ramin improvised that and also said “shit” after Christine kissed him in the final lair scene. I just felt the need to share this, as I personally love picking up subtle hints and quiet stuff characters say. I feel like it makes them seem so much more real and reveals a lot of personality. Also one of the many things I love about this pair❤️

    You have come here
    In pursuit of your deepest urge
    In pursuit of that wish which till now has been silent
    Silent
    I have brought you
    That our passions may fuse and merge
    In your mind you've already succumbed to me
    Dropped all defenses, completely succumbed to me
    Now you are here with me, no second thoughts
    You've decided, decided
    Past the point of no return
    No backward glances
    Our games of make believe are at an end
    Past all thought of if or when
    No use resisting
    Abandon thought and let the dream descend
    What raging fire shall flood the soul?
    What rich desire unlocks its door?
    What sweet seduction lies before us
    Past the point of no return
    The final threshold?
    What warm, unspoken secrets will we learn
    Beyond the point of no return?
    You have brought me
    To that moment where words run dry
    To that moment where speech disappears into silence
    Silence
    I have come here
    Hardly knowing the reason why
    In my mind I've already imagined our bodies entwining, defenseless and silent
    And now I am here with you, no second thoughts
    I've decided, decided
    Past the point of no return
    No going back now
    Our passion play has now at last begun
    Past all thought of right or wrong
    One final question
    How long should we two wait before we're one?
    When will the blood begin to race
    The sleeping bud bursts into bloom?
    When will the flames at last consume us?
    Past the point of no return
    The final threshold
    The bridge is crossed, so stand and watch it burn
    We've passed the point of no return

I wonder, dislike folks, do you dislike the fact that these are still shots shown to the music OR is it the amazing impeccable singing of the two inimitable Broadway stars? Hats off for both of them to my way of thinking.

I am a little disappointed I couldn't find Phillip Quast on here, seeing as I'd heard that he did six years performing Phantom of The Opera once he retired from Les Miserables.
