I first saw him perform this song on the Regis Philbin show. He sang beautifully and emotionally, and teared up at the end. I remember Regis said " Wow, here he is, The Phantom, crying, he really gets into his songs!" I thought that Regis was just being Regis, but have become a Michael fan ever since. This is my favorite of all his songs.
First time I heard this song was back in 1994 and it has been one of my favorite songs ever since. Can't help to shed a tear or two everytime I song along.
I know that feeling so well - some songs reach directly into our hearts if performed expertly, and this one, when sung by the likes of Michael Crawford here, is one of them.
Michael crawford is not only a funny man and a talented man but he is also a very very caring and a very giving man and he s a very compassionate and a very humble person and i completeley adore him god bless you and natasha and your girls and all your wonderful grandchildren love you michael love beth
I've loved this song (and Michael Crawford) for years, but I've never heard of the musical "Brownstone." I would love to know the story behind this song.
The musical focuses upon five characters living in close proximity to one another in four apartments (two of the characters are a married couple) within a converted NYC brownstone (townhouse) and their interactions with one another, and is almost entirely sung throughout. One of them, the ditzy, extrovert Claudia, is recovering from a relationship break-up, and it is she who sings When You Stayed Here, in Act 2, reflecting upon what her life used to be like when her ex-lover lived with her.
@@czbikerguythank you for the reply. I think it is. I remember I was just a boy and this was on and I always loved this version from what I remember. Thanks so much for uploading!
There is no one who can convey the essence of a song better than Michael Crawford. What a great singer and a great person.❤
Yes, Michael 'lives' the song. He is well known for his emotional performances . Thank you.

His voice and this song! Wow! No one can sing it better than him. So touching and incredibly sad.

Such a beautifully moving version. Was this from the Des O’ Connor show?
I can't remember now - it was such a long time ago. I just recorded him singing this, nothing else from whatever TV show he was in, sorry.
