The fact that he can sing more classical-sounding musicals like POTO and Les Miz, but also do rock operas like JCS and Rent, AND sing bluegrass and gospel; my God, this man's range!
The fact that he can plausibly play a character like Roger and just as plausibly play Phantom is amazing. I love Adam Pascal but you couldn't say the same about him.
Bethany-I was just thinking the exact same thing after listening to Ramin sing Glory. I've got to say that he's picked his path well. If he continues down this road over the next few years, I think anything he sings and acts in is going to be a treat.
It's like...the lost album. This is before he got his fame. The record company is with now, pretends that this Album doesn't exist--that "Ramin" is his debut Album, when in actuality, it isn't.
Wow, I never knew he covered this song! Although I still like Adam Pascal's version more, this comes very close. His voice has that 'raw' quality, perfectly fit for Roger. Too bad he's too old for the role now.
yes, I know that :) I was just responding to someone saying they thought it was odd to hear him with an "american" accent...... I don't hear any accent in this song :)
Damn, he definitely would have been Roger once if his career path started from Broadway instead of West End. Can't complain though, I think he made good decision but imagine if he is in Rent.
okay, heres an idea Ramin sierra bogess and hadley fraser star as roger, Mimi and mark and adam pascal, rosie dawson and anthony rapp play the phantom, Christine and Raoul. i know its kinda crazy but what do you think?
I think he did really good with this song but it wasn't his best...in my opinion any ways. My favorite song that he does is his version of Music of the Night. It seems to enhance the song with a contemporary flair on ALW's master piece.
What... like he sounds so unlike himself here. But I mean that in the best way, I mean he sounds very Roger instead of sounding Ramin. He actually sounds a lot like the original/movie version too.
Nah, I think that Ramin is better in both roles. Aaron's voice is more suited to soft pop, not the rock and operatic requirements of Roger and Enjolras
The fact that he can sing more classical-sounding musicals like POTO and Les Miz, but also do rock operas like JCS and Rent, AND sing bluegrass and gospel; my God, this man's range!
This man could sing Phonebook: The Musical and I'd pay for it!
2023 and still of the best version
This is a masterpiece
The fact that he can plausibly play a character like Roger and just as plausibly play Phantom is amazing. I love Adam Pascal but you couldn't say the same about him.
Confirmed, Ramin could sing literally any song and it would be absolutely flawless.
I can't help imagining The Phantom singing this, what a surprise it would have been for Mimi
Another awesome performance from Enjolras Roger "The Phantom" Valjean!

OMFG Rent is my favorite musical and Ramim Karimloo is my favorite singer! This was a gift I didn't realize I needed. I ligit almost cried during this
And this is incredible! But this was YEARS ago. :'3 Imagine how it would sound now with his voice now! :'D beautifulness would occur.
I loved this song when Adam did it- as I love Rent very much. But I must say...Ramin has made this better.
He can sing anything and will always sound amazing.
ABSOLUTELY beautiful!!!!! *.* I'm totally in love:DDDD
My favourite RENT song sung by one of my favourite musical theatre performers EVER... A genius combination. :)
He sings opera AND rock. That automatically makes him God.
One of my favourite Rent songs.... Now one of my favourite versions :)
who would love too hear him sing Your Eyes???
Ramin Karimloo is the most amazing Phantom ever :) xx
ohhhh my god!!! complete ecstasy right here :D
This guy can sing anything!!! He's still a wonderful Phantom also!!!!
amazing! saw this on tumblr...had to hop over her to "like" it!
It's like...the lost album. This is before he got his fame. The record company is with now, pretends that this Album doesn't exist--that "Ramin" is his debut Album, when in actuality, it isn't.
I LOVE THIS SONG ALREADY. NOW I LOVE IT EVEN MORE
I'm afraid that is impossible. Ramin cannot help that he is absolutely amazing
Wow, I never knew he covered this song! Although I still like Adam Pascal's version more, this comes very close. His voice has that 'raw' quality, perfectly fit for Roger. Too bad he's too old for the role now.
Tan Nguyen Aaron Tveit never had the determination in his voice
ramin stahp being perfect
Ramin is such a very handsome young man and also a very cool Phantom!
I think I just died RENT is my all time fave musical and as much as I live his phantom, he'd be a great Rodger
One of the most beautiful songs form "Rent"... We had our Argentinian version some years ago, and it was great!
I agree. I would totally go to New York and see him do this. He would be perfect.
I LOVE U FOR POSTING THIS
YES. YES. YES. (hadn't thought about how similar his voice is with adam pascal but it is!)
And he also lived in Italy for quite some time! LOVE his accent!!!
That moment when you go from being 100% sure you’re not gay to being 99% sure you’re not gay
Amazing!
If Ramin was in rent i would DIE OF HEARING TOO MUCH WONDERFULNESS!!!! (but Aaron Tvie will always be my Roger)
has to be one of my favorite male voices EVER!!!
next to Adam Pascal-Josh Strickland-Mitch Grassi-and Aaron Tveit
NIIICE work.
DAMN! I'm just blown away by this man! Adam will always be my favorite singer of this song though...
Absolutely brilliant.
Less than three Ramin :D
I just compared the two, (by playing them at the same time). It sounds like Ramin is echoing Adam fangirling
listen again... i thought the same at first, but it grows on you
OMG Brilliant or what :) xxx
One of the best Rent songs
OMG You're so right!!!! I was wondering why it sounded familar!!
very nice!
Love Ramin. Sounds a bit like Jonathan Larson singing
We need a good RENT revival with Ramin as Roger.
uhhh is this album NOT on iTunes? I think i'm going to cry because I can't find it anywhere.........
Ramin got rid of this album because he didn't like it.
If I recall correctly, apparently Ramin did rock bands before musicals, so I'm not too surprised.
Fetus Fetus holy crap Fetus!!!!!!😍😘
Dear Ramin: Please do Rent. Love, everyone. :D
@wittymama88 Sorry for the late response but he's done The Impossible Dream. :) Although you've probably found the recording by now lol
yes, I know that :) I was just responding to someone saying they thought it was odd to hear him with an "american" accent......
I don't hear any accent in this song :)
Was he ever in Rent or he just decided to do this for the album?
I think you mean "A Very Potter Musical" sounds like Rent.
The beginning sounds just like "A Very Potter Musical"
He could've been the BEST Roger!
♥♥♥♥♥♥
Damn, he definitely would have been Roger once if his career path started from Broadway instead of West End. Can't complain though, I think he made good decision but imagine if he is in Rent.
Even though that's his own accent ... yes. Yes it is.
OMG I need a fanfiction.
lol same
got a light? why is it only one song!
I'm auditioning for Mimi in October for Rent. Please be my Roger?
ramin should star in rent.
okay, heres an idea
Ramin sierra bogess and hadley fraser star as roger, Mimi and mark
and adam pascal, rosie dawson and anthony rapp play the phantom, Christine and Raoul.
i know its kinda crazy but what do you think?
That is Adam Pascal who is part of the original Cast/Movie cast
@jelliclekat24 agreed
HEAR HEAR
Seriously regretting the fact that I'm only fifteen. :D
아담 파스칼도 좋은데 라민카림루도 장난없네요 ㅠㅠ
@musejoanjett I did the EXACT same thing!
I think he did really good with this song but it wasn't his best...in my opinion any ways. My favorite song that he does is his version of Music of the Night. It seems to enhance the song with a contemporary flair on ALW's master piece.
He should totally play Roger sometimes. And we should have Hadley play Mark. Okay.
hmmm I dont hear an American accent? I mean he sounds just like he does when he speaks or sings Sheytoons songs, any cover, or his own songs lol :)
He looks a little like Elvis on this album... No?
I'd prefer if they actually did that, but, sure, fics wouldn't come amiss!
What... like he sounds so unlike himself here. But I mean that in the best way, I mean he sounds very Roger instead of sounding Ramin. He actually sounds a lot like the original/movie version too.
Prefiero la versión de Luke Evans. (Lo siento Ramin, pero te conocí como Phantom en Love Never Dies y así te quedarás para mí). :)
If you think of him as Enjorlas, it's kinda hilarious
mmm Roger where are you? I can't find you in this song
Hadley isn't enough of a wuss to be Mark lol
anyone else totally weirded out hearing him with an american accent? lol
how does someone have an American accent if they are Canadian 🤔🤔🤔
Not a good choice for you.
I like this version but I think that, like with Enjolras, Arron Tveit did it better.
Nah, I think that Ramin is better in both roles. Aaron's voice is more suited to soft pop, not the rock and operatic requirements of Roger and Enjolras
as soon as i heard him sing 'constant angel' i needed to know if he ever did rent and oh my god, not disappointed.
