    After the song, Lea talks about the beginning of Miss Saigon and explains how frightening it felt for her when she was about to rehearse the love scenes with Simon, having had no experience with a boyfriend, let alone love before. Simon could see the anxiety in Lea, so he took her and her mum aside and told them: "You can trust me. I will take care of you. Don't worry, I will not take advantage of you." With the pressure of the leading role in a world premiere musical and the entire nation watching her, as well as in light of MeToo, this obviously means so much to Lea and she'll be forever grateful to Simon that he kept his promise. You can see clearly how deep their bond goes. Great respect for Simon Bowman!

      He probably told Lea and her mom in secrecy that he's gay (not that im against it) so Lea and mom will be comfortable. Simon has never been married or have any children and known to have one. For a popular guy, his personal life is so remote. His wikipedia is almost empty. But, this duet reminds me of the past. We all get old and older. Sad reality.

Also from 6:18 u can see that his mike is not on his mouth but he still sound very clear, if its using leas mike, he should sound distant, but no. Same modulation.

It was supposed to be the first time for Kim in all aspects :) Lea, when older, interpreted the songs and the character of Kim in a more passionate way, though.

    This is my first ever comment in youtube and not interested to anyone at all. She got my utmost respect regardless of whatever negativities that others would say, she’s out of this world and literally no one could be like her.

      To comment further who could not love Lea Salonga? It's appropriate that she voiced two disney princesses because she is a princess in the flesh. Timeless elegance with a voice as smooth as the ripples on a mill pond. Her enunciation of every word she sings delivers the full impact of every song. Too many performers are so in love with their voice they over sing and enunciation is an afterthought. She is the most polished singer the stage has ever known. The greatest most versatile female singer of all time...

    Its 2023 now, 7th of January, still watching again and again these great actors/singers. The chemistry is beyond perfection! The respect for each other is so immense its almost reverence. Everything is effortless. You can't help being carried away into that place and time when love is almost perfect.

    One of the best duets ever, Sun and Moon and Last Night of the World, from the original production of Miss Saigon. Lea and Simon Bowman. None will ever compare to these two Actor/Singers. They're performances were superb, one of kind and were absolutely brilliant. They will always be what made MISS Saigon. They can do 100 Reproductions but none will ever compare to the original.
