Can we stop sleeping on Nicole she deserves more recognition
how tf do you sleep on some one?
-
she's not a recording artist, that^s why in the music industry, she doesn't get grammy recognition. Just the fact that Andrew Lloyd Weber got her to sing Phantom, with a very big audience is a great recognition.
@@deenugent473 lol
no she don’t,, emmy was better
@@mariaalano3077 her discography would beg to differ.
Nicole Scherzinger is epitome of a singer whose outstanding vocal talent isn't taken seriously enough because of her knockout beauty.
not in close to why she is over looked. she was in PCD and didn't show out her voice that much so it was actually her fault.
its bc of her songs. lol
She seriously has it all!
I don't feel that it has anything to do with her beauty, if anything I think her beauty adds to her aura. I think she isn't taken seriously more so because of her association with The Pussycat Dolls, The X Factor, and her single records; which are all jokes in comparison to this.
i mean, your love makes me feel like turutututu
She can dance, she clearly can sing, and she's drop dead gorgeous…. what the heck! lol
***** What Im wondering is how the flub did she get pulled by Luis Hamilton!
shes good but she aint no legend
I know right? hahaha
chinobling83 yet...
Ann Le {Anneorshine} It's almost like she's a popstar. Oh wait...
The first guy who said "Sing, my angel of music" is melting me like a butter
It’s John Owen-Jones
It's Ramin Karimloo
@@rachaelt8729nope it’s Ramin Karimloo
@@rachaelt8729no it's not it's Ramin Karimloo
@@sademakeseditz well whoever he is, he's hot 🔥🔥🥵🥵😊😊
To be surrounded and sung to by four gorgeous tenors, you need to be as dropdead gorgeous as her.
u LUVme YASS
But they're ugly as hell...
@@gubsterte I don't care about your standards ... I'm admiring them from my pov.
u LUVme oh god rip off of league xd
How many are theatre gays though
I had no idea that Nicole could sing like that. My mind is blown.
she was classical trained ever since she was a young child.
"Don't Cha" wish she sang like this more often?
my feelings exactly.
Check out her performance when singing "Don't Cry For Me Argentina". I think she's even more impressive in that song! I'm blown away too! Much respect Nicole :)
Miss Kitty yeah it's all fake she has loads of money she proberlny either paid them or slept with them like really
I don't think enough people understand what a talented vocalist Nicole is.
Even antonio banderas is underrated for his performance
@@brierichardson8462 yes, his performance was really good. It was expressive too.
@@michellegulden1052 I would've loved to see a production that starred the both of them
@@brierichardson8462 oh that would be spectacular.
I didn’t even know she was 😱
Who's still watching in 2024,and still crying by the talent of Nicole Scherzinger
me
Me, love her. She sang this absolutely amazingly
Me
On my way home after watching her Broadway debut in Sunset Blvd, orchestrations by Webber and when I say not one butt was in their seat at the end... I would be surprised if she didn't get a Tony for her performance (singing, acting, everyone). If you're around NYC or able to do a visit and see it .. holy shit 🤌🏾
right here
The fact that she sings this song with 4 legendary phantoms, shows her true class.
No Marco Hietala here, though. Therefore I deem these weights somewhat light.
@@seetaami5810 marco Hietala is not the "stage singers" of this opera in its rendition. Four tenors here is the true phantoms of its main renditions.
@@cyprianuslilikk.p.7937 Yes, I understand that very well. There is a big difference between incorporating one number extracted from the musical into your set, and performing the entire musical on stage, live. I just wanted to make a clumsy joke somewhat relevant to the particular number seen in this clip.
Anyway, thanks for setting me straight, Lilik. I love to see that people still care about whole works instead of all not that cherry-picking Four Tenors 'highlights' crap. Musicals are not operas, but I'm sure you get my point.
The only problem that she can’t sing and looks ridiculous.
@@katerynarusakova6176 lol , keep lying to yourself.
Whenever people say Nichole can’t sing or has no talent, I show them this.
And after that, show them Selena Gomez "singing"
Not as good as the 17yo in the film
Show them sam bailey and nicole singing “I’m telling you “ stunning!
@Who let the virus out? Woof woof woofhan I love Phantom of the Opera😅 I cried at the end because he just wanted someone to love him and I relate to that.
I like all those judgmental bitches sing like this.. lmao oh right they can't...
People don’t know she can sing like this.
But they know that Selena Gomez can sing 🤣
Nico C lmao that’s true
I don't think she has any classic training ? Whereas the phantoms obviously do.
craigk621 yea Bc this isn’t they style that the industry arranged for her so no one knows... Britney Spears has a deep soulful voice but the industry makes it where they don’t show it🤷🏾♀️
AGaming CeCe Britney Spears does not have a deep, soulful voice lol. Her real voice is deeper, but she can barely hit a note. Have you seen her happy birthday to LA Reid? LOL
I love that it looks like they're fighting for Christine. Each of them bring a unique aspect to the phantom
These male singers are so dangerous to sing with. Their rocketing voice is absolutely on fire!!!
Especially Ramin ! That's one hell of a voice
I felt this
@@burburchacha wich one of them is him?? His voice is just....
@@cheyendijk1750 The younger and handsome guy with a dark beard.
@@burburchacha thank you very much mate. It's not only his looks you know. Also his voice (I like the little cracks)
Phantom : sing for me
I sing
Phantom : you can shut up now, i'll haunt someone else
Hồ Huy hahaha
Me: depressed
😅🤣😆
Hilarious!!!
The phantom isn't a supernatural being though.
Why is no one talking about the male singers
Their voices are 🔥
Someone commented that they weren't above average, but Nicole was great. Talk about nonsense
These are all singers who’ve played the phantom on Broadway. Makes it even more special
Our phantoms are amazing! Each one u can hear their unique style. What makes ppl comment on Nicole and not them is the fact she is not a phantom cast member and some people would be surprised to hear her pull it off so fantastically.
@@allisong6 she's not bad, but I prefer Ramin and Sierra's version
@@jacobmast6217 agreed, but then she is classically trained so different instrument. But that is my favourite pairing too
I am 11 years late... Seeing Nicole sing those notes made me love her more. The four guys were amazing, all of them together were on point. Can't believe this is my first time seeing this.
Me too! I am later than you. But, better late than never. Wow 💗💗
Same!!! I saw a comment on a performance of hers on masked singer and they mentioned how it wasn't better than when she sang this.... in had no clue!
You're just in time to go see her in west end later this year in ALW's Sunset Blvd. Not the same, but an enticing event nonetheless.
Those aren't just four random "guys" you bafoon. They are the Phantoms of their respective shows on Broadway and such.
Right? Masterful, truly!
For those wondering:
Phantoms in order
1. John Owens
2. Ramin Karimloo
3. Simon Bowman
4. Earl Carpenter
Wow thank you for this
I knew it was Ramin the minute he change the note on stronger he’s done it several time before😂
John owen Jones is amazing
Thank you!
Valjean and Javert really out here being the Phantom together
Don't cha wish your Phantom was hot like me...
W
Taryn Tinoco i thought the sameeee ahahahha
Taryn Tinoco 😂😂😂 Bravo 👏Bravo 👏
Taryn Tinoco 🤣🤣🤣
YES!!!! You win the comments section!! 😂😭👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My vocal chord when I'm watching this: "Don't you ever try that last part"
If only I would listen amirite
Does it anyways
Muhammad Ridwan Lol me too.
Bruh, I tried it. Did NOT go well 🤣 The highest I can do comfortably is a G#5 and if my tuner app is correct, Nicole's finishing note was an F6 😳😳😳
And I shouldn't have attempted to do the F6. I squeaked out a C6 and now my throat feels like it's on fire. OUCH
Nicole showing how amazing her talent is. People don’t give her enough credit for her vocal range. Truly powerful performance.
When women are sexy and pretty and almost perfect physically, society tends to discredit their talents and intelligence. Sad reality. Nicole is way more than just a pretty face. She's extremely talented and her heart is so pure.
NotJustAGirl Idiot...So true but very sad that it is true. Nicole is so talented in so many ways, and her vocal range is incredible. Also she is a great dancer, and very beautiful woman. Beautiful inside and out. Have you ever heard and seen her song and video "Run"? Fantastic!
Her talent was hidden behind the sex symbol image. I concur. She has more than a pretty face. she has an amazing voice.
People don’t look at pretty faces nowadays and expect them to have no talent. They expect them to be great at everything! They laughed at Paul Potts and Susan Boyle because they were ugly and they expected ugly voices. It just isn’t true about people who are beautiful not getting a fair shot. Name some ugly pop stars and tell me you can’t find ten times the number of very attractive ones.
Simp harder.
I understand what you’re saying & agree in general, but let’s not forget that Nicole put herself from the beginning in the pretty-sexy-video-vixen frame, I mean she was the lead singer of a band called The ”Pussycat” Dolls, she could’ve chosen a different path if she wanted, a Sarah Brigthman path for example, but she chose a Pussycat path, more fame, more money and easy money, so if society objectives her it’s because she chose to look like an object for many many years!
Everybody's talking about Nicole and nobody about those INCREDIBLE phantoms??? They are amazing, stunning! Nicole is also killing it!
I think the phantoms are unknown to most people unless you are following them. They are all pretty incredible equally although we all do have our favorite but I guest people are waiting for Nicole to crack, didn't know she could sing like this. I was pretty amazed, thought she was just entertaining but now a new respect for her.
If you are part of the "musical" world you know who those Phantoms are. They are big, big, big, big musical theatre performers. Nicole is a trained vocalist, the vocals she performs on her own material is more of a pop sounding vocal, but she can sing different genres, she's actually quite talented, completely underrated as a solo artists. I'm glad Andrew Lloyd Webber saw this in her. She is one of his favorite pop-artists today. But if you want another example of someone like this, look up Charlotte Church, all she did was opera styled music, and then she went commercial/secular and did a pop album, vocals are a complete 180.
Thank you for the insight. I see that you are a lover of the opera. I am now just looking into. I was a pussy cat doll fan and when I saw Nicole here, I was curious. I would love to know these phantoms. I have never heard of them or seen them before here. They are so beautiful. I cried every time the female hits that high note.
tang yang yes she’s actually been on broadway before lol (not in this show though)
tang yang you should look up Ramin Karimloo (the guy at 3:23) Like ALL the girls (who are into broadway) love him!! Lol (I think he is attractive but I’m not a huge fan or anything lol)
This completely changed how I thought about her. She's amazing.
JamieFailsAtGames ikr? shes so good, i listened to some acoustic covers of hers and i was like why she sings all those fake things? but i think she has mentioned she likes what she does better, its a bit sad imo :/
JamieFailsAtGames Same here
hasan tylou She was classically trained in opera. :)
Amber Webb She's classically trained, she doesn't sing opera.
It changed mine too. At first I only thought of her as another pop singer with decent voice who made money off her body, but after hearing this Ive become her fan
Imagine being sick and she can still sing like this. Nicole is the most underrated singer in the world. #maskedsinger
Ela estava doente?
The older man's voice is my favorite. It sounds romantic and desperate.
Listen to him singing, Why God why, from Miss Saigon with Paul Wylie skating in the 1992 World Challenge of Champions (I think that is it)
Music and skating in perfect harmony ♥️ 🌟 ❤️
Simon. The original Chris in Miss Saigon
😂 love this comment
@@jzurka Thank you for saying who he is, I think he is drop dead gorgeous and best voice, my favorite one.
Same! I really admire their voices though I love the way he sung the most! I feel enraptured!
Okay but the Phantom voices? Like seriously they are great
And then there's Gerad Buttler.
*Phantoms glance at each other uncomfortably*
"he was adopted"
Sam Neil was a surprise!
@@angryasfuck6662 At least he tried and didn't get auto tuned to death like Emma Watson in Beauty and the beast. I think he did pretty well, he may not be the strongest Phantom voice wise but he did really bring the phantom out acting wise.
KaiM F
I am totally with you with the the Emma Watson thing. that movie was just horrible in general. and yes, Gerad Butler did do a pretty good job acting, but the phantom is simply not the phantom if he can't sing. you can feel him struggling to try and put his best efforts onto acting out the part as well as sing. And anyway, even without Ger, that movie was still a mess, in my opinion. it had a lot of potential but they in completely destroyed it. but back to the singing, they should have just had professional signers dub the actors and let them focus on what they are actualy good at: acting!
@@angryasfuck6662 I have a soft spot for the movie because it was the movie that introduced me to my love of musicals. The only strong singer in the movie was Emmy Rossum and I think it would have been way better for an actual singer to have come in to help. Especially since most of the songs aren't simple and are very much hard vocals. I don't know why some people get so mad when actual singers come in and they just dub it over. Some actors can't sing and some singers can't act.
Does anyone else love it when Ramin does his signature "touching her but not touching her" thing under the chin??? Just ugh *faints*
That definitely makes me really happy but my favorite signature thing he does in this role is the different second note on "stronger". 😍
I get GOOSEBUMPS
@Juliet Antonio. I CANNOT stop watching this and now I'm just in love with his "touching but not touching" move 😍😍😍😍😍
@@CarolynsReadingRamblings which part?
@@sowhat... the part Juliet was talking about where Ramin moves his hand under her chin but never touches it, the first "sing my angel of music" line I think.😍
The way Ramin Karimloo looked at her right before he said "sing" made me quiver 😍
Those phantoms are daddy material, I can't lie
Preach it girl 😩
Eh, I've seen better.
But they're certainly good singers.
@@chloeruiz6543 🙌🙌
😂😂😂 was lookin for this comment 😉
They sure were!!
I had no idea that Nicole could 1. Sing classically, and 2. Could hit notes that high.
I remember reading an article about this way back. From what I can recall, she had to work very hard as she's not classically trained. While it was easier because she has that natural talent, not everyone can sing opera.... Especially with these four surrounding her.
Hello, Nicole is classically trained but she chose to go pop maybe there’s more money
Pussy Cat Dolls formed becasue her rock music was "not marketable"
@@evechewietan Yeah I think it was a smart career choice - not just for the money but the opportunities that a high profile career will bring. Pop sells and that means publicity. She has many lesser known but no-less impressive talents too. I think above all, she has made very wise choices with regards to her career and now she gets to enjoy the fruits and explore other genres.
@@kevinmoore2929 she is a classically trained opera singer and studied musical theater- opera concentration at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio for three years on a talent scholarship.
this song really makes me feel good in quarantine mod...
Same !!!! 🤧🥰💞
Check also the Nightwish version out from the end of an era concert 😍
@@alexiss6990 WOW!!! JUST WOW 🤯😳💞
And my neighbors also😂 6 to 1 sound system 😂😅
lol
I can’t believe she can sing like that. Amazing vocals
The ultimate geek-gasm... being yelled at with "SING FOR ME!" by not one, but FOUR phantoms!
I second that
omg yes theater geeks unite
+Noel Cander i fourth it
yes yes yes!!!
yass
the dude with the beard can be the phantom of my opera anytime he wants
Lorenzo Alejandro Campuzano Belisario IM IN TEARS HAHAHHAA
I thought the same, he's astoundingly attractive to me...
😂😂😂😂😂
S a m e
Thats Ramin Karimloo. THE UNDERRATED GOD
It's almost a shame that she's a judge on Masked Singer she would be a phenomenal contestant because so few people realize how incredibly talented she is...😍
She would be The Cougar
that’s what I was thinking listening to this. She’s unrecognizable from what she’s normally known for. If she ever left the show she should definitely go back on as a contestant!
Agreed. She should be on Broadway
@@allisonfoley6759 i agree. She wasted so many years in mainstream pop stardom when she could easily snatch them Tony's with her amazing acting skills and theater abilities. Not to mention the godly vocals.
Tellin my kids this is the Pussycat dolls
So Nicole is Nicole and the candlelights in the back are the rest of the dolls? Same amount of singing 😂
@@MaRiaRaFaeLLa xd
1:08 John Owen-Jones; 1:17 Ramin Karimloo; 1:25 Simon Bowman; 1:34 Earl Carpenter
Please pin or put in the description, thanks!
Thank you, I repeat Ramin’s part over and over
thank you so much lol
@@oksanarose6879 You guys are welcome! I was looking for timestamps to help a student working on this song, but figured it could be helpful for many if I added them in myself
Thank you!!
I've never heard of any of the men, but loved every one of them!
She is so underrated 😪
i have so much more respect for this women !!
pop music hide the real talent
She did it better then Sarah Brighthman
Nah she isn’t better then Sara tho and will never be even tho she blinks more then 4 times
In my top 10 she isn’t even near last place
The five of them complimented each other so much it gives me chills
For sure they did. Rather, I tend to look up to ensembles that complement each other.
What do you think of this with 3 Christines? th-cam.com/video/vpgLXSe3MFE/w-d-xo.html
pure orgasmic
Nicole nailed it ! Her pitch ,her breath control, her phrasing and range.. is just perfect. This shows she's a true vocalist and talent. Rock it girl !
Nicole Scherzinger is so talented. I didn't know she could sing like that.
neither did it, this is really impressive, why did she ever join that girl group if she had a voice like this i wonder?
And the Opera singers have trouble singing anything but Opera...and yes I've checked Ms. Borgess singing pop songs. Not even karaoke worthy lol
Dsome Rsome this isn’t even Opera. And she is classically trained.
Skibone21 she’s not an Opera singer lol. She’s classically trained and is a broadway actress. Completely different from Opera. But yes I’d imagine hearing Sierra singing a pop song would be weird lol
Neither did I
Who's idea was it to have them all sing together. I'm so grateful. I listen to it over and over again and cry every time.
Yes of course a Lot of power in one place. Also make me cry. Amazing!!! Right!!
It was Andrew Lloyd Webber’s idea as he and Andrea Bocelli have supported Nicole Scherzinger’s musical career for years and she has featured tracks on some of their released albums. Nicole also performs live frequently with Andrea Bocelli; most recently at NYC’s Madison Square Garden and Boston’s TD Garden in December 2018.
What do you think of this with 3 Christines? th-cam.com/video/vpgLXSe3MFE/w-d-xo.html
@@ROCKCHALK0229 Thank you for this info, I was pleasantly surprised to learn this. This post is so amazing.
What are the names of the singers?
I was blown away by this. I'm shock. I had no idea that Nicole could sing that way. Btw... The 2nd from the left Phantom is cute af. The Latino lookin dude with the dark hair and beard
Simon Bowman 💕 🌟 💕
Watch her Don’t Cry For Me Argentina performance you’ll be blown away
@@HalluCinogen91 I love The Honest Vocal Coach and her opinion on Nicole's singing of it. ♥️
julie Harris didn’t know the honest vocal coach reacted to her singing, i should check it out
Shes started as a classical singer cross over to pop music
I can’t believe the algorithm only showed me this NOW. This was so beautiful and honestly part of the beauty is see a pop singer kill it as a opera singer. Her mannerisms, face, all of it, beautiful! The not-touching touch, gave me chills!
Her voice is angelic! At 4:07 it's so impressive how she goes from licking her lips right to the high note without hesitation! I had no idea Nicole had vocals like this. :0
I noticed that too. I imagine myself in a situation with such a high placement then licking lips lile that to hit the same high note before it thereafter. Talent!
it's several takes and they cut toghether
I’ve often wondered, could it mean she did playback? It still her Boyce after all. And she had a cold that day.
Also noticed that, 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@ungoliver ???
The 4th guys vibrato gives me shivers
Ayanna Mae ik its so good also his high note is so great
Ayanna Mae who is he?
Felicha Amanda I don't know, I just know I love his voice
That's what a supported voice "on the breath" is supposed to sound like- relaxed, free, and with a spinning quality. Tenor #3 is the exact opposite. Numbers 1 and 2 are okay, but can improve to the quality of #4.
Fach is not always clear-cut, as some tenors have low, rumbly chest notes, and some baritones have good extension above the staff. However, the timbre of Carpenter's voice around and above the passagio demonstrates an affinity to sing tenor roles for musical theatre.
As for "power" in #1's singing, that is quite irrelevant, IMO. They sing with amplification, unlike in opera which is unamplified and relies on the singers' natural abilities to project.
True, musical theatre puts less emphasis on technique, simply because the vocal talent required of musical theater performers is less than that of opera (a LOT less in most cases). Yet, the topic of the original post was that of a technical nature, that's why I analysed the singers on those merits. Note, I didn't say the singers *should* improve to the level of #4, but *can*. As far as technical mastery goes, Carpenter is indeed ahead of the pack.
Every girls dream is to have 4 phantoms singing to her at once
Cat Kubick damn straight! Love these phantoms but bearded dark hair one is awesome!! :)
Every girls who know what is it ,,Phantom of Opera". At my school... just me.
Yesss you got that right 😍
No thanks
Especially Ramin karimloo, he's a beauty.
And people praise Christinas Voice, Lady Gagas Voice....Mariah Careys voice, while this PURE Art-Angel is so underrated
Girl this is nothing. One flat note. Mariah and Christina would’ve changed octaves 5 times. Very minuscule vocal ability. Much better than her pcd days, but… not much.
@@raquelbrown90 yes they would have changed octaves 5 times, in a piece, that instead requires to hold the note clear and strong instead of doing that christina screaming up and down the scale.
I just shake my head at all these comments nitpicking at what was overall a great performance considering she is not known for singing opera. At least give some credit in spite of yourself. Most pop stars can't do this.
1st this is not opera, it's musical. 2nd her area of strength is actually not pop she was trained as a theatre singer
Kwudhbw whinv it may be considered a musical, but the theme is opera, the singing style is indeed operatic.
Kwudhbw whinv it may be considered a musical, but the theme is opera, the singing style is indeed operatic.
Joe Schneider it's neither is called crossover. It's not traditional opera not is it musical. Operetta at best but the most accurate term is "classical crossover". You sing this for an audition at any respectable conservatoire and you will not be accepted.
Adele Clarkson
I hate that people forget how incredibly talented she is and just recognize her as some “stupid oversexualized pop star” when she can obviously do it all.
They do the same with Lady Gaga even though she constantly reminds people of her talent.
I kinda wish Nicole did what Gaga does too (constantly remind people that she has talent, but necessarily being over the top) just so people give her the recognition she deserves. I hate when great artists are underrated.
Ikr😢
She is way way way more talented than lady gaga...Gaga can't dance and doesn't have a vocal prowess like nicole...
@@prodemocracyyot8083 that's where you're wrong. And you're wrong because you're pitting two great women who do different things against each other. Sit down.
@@prodemocracyyot8083 she’s one of the best vocalist sit down somewhere
Am I the only one shocked that she could hit those notes. I MEAN WOW!!! Nicole is amazing!
Nope, I can't believe it, this is insane!! I will be watching this over and over and over, Those voices were all amazing, but I never expected Nicole to have pipes like that!
Of cOurse. Theater is her early trainings,thus, the leaning..
I'm not really "shocked" since she has always been talented to me. People knew her from Pussycat Dolls so they think "Oh well she's in a girl group so she surely can't have a great voice!" But yeah, my point is, i've never thought that way
Since i always knew she was extremely talented vocally.
Yeah I didn’t realize til recently that she’s actually trained in opera. Never would’ve thought that
I am shocked as well !!! She is full of surprises 😮
It doesn't matter how often I watch this, Nicole's range always gives me goosebumps. She is the best Christine imho.
Those phantoms can come to my room and scare me whenever they want.
Honestly I will happily be spooked,
@@hopeworld_2190
The phantom: BOO!
Me: Hi daddy
Hahahahaha
Haha 😄
Haha, would you settle for 3 while I occupy Ramin....?
The older white haired guy had the best voice for the male part imo
I ageee
Simon Bowman😍
Same for me
Danny Devito hes the best looking too
.
1:35....the way he sings “Phaaaaaaaantom” made my knees weak. Ramin is still bae
I legit love this one that sounded not as deep at first, but at the end, he went from son to daddy real quick 😂😂
They’re all great! Ramin will always be the Phantom to me but the other three were all unique in their own creative way. I loved how angry and jealous the “behind” sounded. Superb
Lol that is not ramin but earl carpenter
@@josieprudentino8734 I know which one is Ramin lol. I’m saying that I loved how earl sang it BUT Ramin is still the OG and he’s still bae lol
It was so powerful without even knowing I instantly tried to mimic it. He just made me want to sign opera with one word.
I think she’s such an underrated and under appreciated singer.
Blame on her Pussycat Dolls phase.... Awful
So I'm a HUGE fan of Phantom of the Opera. HUGE. Sarah Brightman was always the pinnacle of the role of Christine. Knowing a little about Nicole and her basic Pop music, I avoided this video like the plague each time I wanted to hear this iconic song. Boy, I'm eating crow because SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I'm totally in awe of her voice, holy CRAP.
I know this was posted 8 months ago, but she was classically trained before pop music :D
You should listen to phantom of the opera by nightwish it is amazing
she was trained for this. she totally deserves best recognition! glad you watched it!
Cha Cha so true! She’s waaay underrated!
Sorry, Sierra Boggess was and is the only person that can walk in these shoes.
Bruh normally in these type of things the “main” person is the best singer but holy cow all of these singers were amazing
The bearded one (Ramin Kamirloo) definitely manages to stand out as the phantom even though everyone there is insanely talented.
incredible ... can't stop listening
They're AMAZING. the masculine presence is WOW
None of the men are much more than average! But Nicole does the song credit! She hits the high notes perfectly!
@@drwoo6090 are you kidding me? You did not just call Ramin Karimlo average at singing. That is music blasphemy
Oh my gosh all these phantom’s voices have the capacity to melt my heart like butter 🧈
th-cam.com/video/EBDxEHzidx0/w-d-xo.html
Reference to the butter knife in the movie??🤨😏
im a guy .. and those guy are melting me lol
Gerard was the Best.
Nicole for us?
All 5 of them absolutely nailed this. Holy crap
3:33-4:22...my mind is blown. Shredded. F%$^&* up. I had NO BLOODY CLUE Scherzinger could sing like that. A soprano as lush as a warm blanket, yet as spectral and lovely as the Aurora Borealis. Her ability to hit, sustain and add such a spine-tingling vibrato to her VERY high notes is nothing short of breathtaking. This is what she should have been doing all along. PCD held her back. THIS was her calling, and, goddamn; is she brilliant!
Her breath control is outstanding!
she is very underrated!
so true
+Swagii Bananas She's quite mediocre compared to other opera singers, you do need to realize that
+Skystunt123 She isn't an opera singer, this isn't opera.
+nemo saunders Please tell me you weren't being serious what else is it if it isn't opera ??? People these days
ambra moschin It's a musical.
Dude she’s the best Christine I’ve heard so far. Bravo.
holy shit!!!!! what was she doing limiting herself to pop songs? ii had no idea she had those pipes. those notes!!!
Chris Conrad
i feel like the PCD needed her to get famous. but honestly, I'm sure no one knew she could sing like this PCD or not.
can you imagine all the superstars who can't actually sing but are famous AF: Britney Spears, Madonna, J. Jackson, Taylor Swift, etc...lol but Nicole had this voice and she can't sell albums.
You are very easily impressed.
well, the money is in pop songs, just for that
Have you heard the whole musical? That's the easiest song. Google "Think of me"...If she can sing that song, especially the cadenza, then I will be impressed.
+Ceasar carcus have you seen Evita, Madonna sang in that and I thought it was very good. However a lot of people slated it and said it was shit but I really don't agree I thought her voice was good throughout.
This is an absolute eargasm
Timmy Staedt Omggggg I went straight to google to check on what that word meant-duhhhh hahaha
All these people upset, but remember she was a pop singer and she sang this... an impressive jump.
She was also classically trained so I don’t know why people are mad .
Ayanna Mae because her voice type is not quite right for this role. Someone who is playing Christine needs a sort of operatic sounding voice such as Sierra Boggess (who is also classically trained.) Nicole has an amazing voice and is an incredible singer but she doesn’t have the right voice for Christine.
Purp13luver I agree with you but I also think Nicole did a stellar job of this . If we are going to compare, even better than Emily Rossum in the 2004 movie version. She did not seem to have control over her voice. I seen phantom of the opera live at her majesty's theatre in London in 1998 and have loved this ever since.
It was either Sarah Ryan or Jill Washington who played the role of Christine. I don't recall. Anyway it was a fabulous experience
+May couldn't agree more, she's good, but compared to others, her singing didn't give me chills.
lisa birtles I think she did too! I just think there are such better choices for Christine.
12 years too late but wow!!!! I knew she could sing but I didn't realise she could SING. I was here trying to find videos of her singing sunset boulevard after the olivier awards, now I get why she's doing musicals ❤❤❤
4:12 - 4:16 Ugh, that guitar riff peeking through as Nicole is singing, that does it for me. That makes this my favorite version of this song.
Holy...what an ending. I bet those opera professionals were impressed by her range. The men were excellent, I couldnt choose a favorite. When they all had to sing together in unison, wow. Absolutely beautiful.
Those are musical theatre singers not opera professionals. All very good but it’s. Different thing
damn! she nailed it. PERIOD! there's no need to compare her voice and performance to SIERRA or SARAH each of them have a distinctive voice and range of voice that cannot be compared to one another. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT NICOLE CAN SING AND YOU CANT.
YES!
It can be compared. You simply have to choose your favorite.
oijiohiup
ahaha! ur right but comparing for the sake of telling who sung it best is a little bit of record bcause Mr. webber would not agree that Nicole will sing it if he hasnt heard/saw Nicole singning it b4 and he didnt like it..
the only thing she nailed is a vocal cord with a very large hammer, because i have heard cats skinned alive with a better voice than that .
you clearly know shit about music . she is a laughing stock among real singers , and i don't mean aguilera , i mean REAL singers
olfursson kyllian
and u bet ur 1 of them :P
How am I just seeing this now…this is phenomenal. They all killed it
Guys stop pressuring her
lmfao
Perhaps the greatest comment in the history of mankind
Sing for meeeeee my angel
The part from 1:25 - 1:34 I've listen like 1000 times ❤️ What a voice!
@go back to sleep and starve lmao yessss👌👌
YES. I CANT STOP OMG.
Simon Bowman. Absolutely gorgeous voice.
Who is he ? Thanks
@@gameanime8961 Earl Carpenter 🙂
Nicole could probably save all the passengers from Titanic with that Air of hers. Good lord that oxygen Nicole.
😂🤣😂

Nicole was actually fighting a heavy cold on that day...
She could've done way better if she wasn't sick.
She was still great!
Liar
I was wondering about that. She sounds like she's stuffy, and her eyes look like they're burning with fever
I couldn't tell she was sick
If that's how she sounds when she's sick then wow
Can’t stop listening and pretending I can sing along LOL 😆 my vocal range is like “sing in your head, girl”
Lmao same girl !!😂😩
Jenny Nagel same

You can try singing Don't Cha

The first phantom's singing always gets me, so powerful!
so good. i like the 4th
@@hmtqnikitashakur3399I Love them all. I'm so impressed with Nicole Scherzinger. People underestimated her because she was "just a pop star" in the Pussycat Dolls. Lol, I guess the joke is on all of us who didn't take her seriously. She can outsing 90% of the females on the charts.
@@missmew3499 this was the first time i seen her perform like this. she's an amazing singer. thats undeniable
John Owen-Jones. Definitely one of the top tiered Phantoms.
They usually have him do the “The phantom of the opera is there” and the “start to soar…” because he hits those high notes so well. His “soar” fills a room like no other.
I agree!
that 3rd phantom tells me to sing and I’d say YAS DADDYYYYY AAAHHHHHHHHH
Hahaha you so funny, yaaas Daddy....more? Hahaha
Lucky lucky woman!
SAAAAME LMAOOO
Fivefootseven Gal you can call me daddy 😏
Same 😁
I love the 3rd male singer. He was splendid. Gave me goosebumps. She did a superb job on the singing, especially the high notes. That's what I was waiting for before I complimented her.
Simon Bowman ❤️,he has played Raoul and the Phantom ,Marius and Jean Valjean ,and the original Chris in Miss Saigon.
I knew Nichole Scherzinger could sing- but MAN- I did not know she could sing like THAT. I have WAAY more respect for her than I ever have before!
Rebekah Segun she’s actually been on broadway lol just not in this show
This made me DROP MY JAW! She saves those high octaves for a true ending and all the males they bring in to take on the Phantom really brings to light a whole new perspective to the performance. This is brilliant!
Damn Nicole. You sang your ass off. Incredible. I knew you had pipes. But seriously girl. Wow. Just wow. Bravo to all of them.

heres the recording of the UK phantom I went to see w Ben Forester and Harriet Jones if you wanna check it out
Zapomniany
She’s a trained opera singer. She studied theater and wow😮 I would definitely buy an opera album of her
I know Nicole is supposed to be the star of this but I LOVED the voices of the men singing. They were all amazing.
the voice of men so so so good! i agreed with you
true! 😃👌👌
The phantoms are incredible! Loved all them!
I remembered when Simon insulted her and then she sang Whitney Houston's I Will Always Love You.... She nailed it just like this one
Ahaha I just came from that video and found this one out!!!! Wish she'd told him to watch this online instead.
Actually, "I Will Always Love You" is a Dolly Parton song. Houston covered it.
@@buyanaa0327 Where can I find the video?? :)

Goosebumps start at 3:43 and don’t stop until the end. Exquisite vocals by all 😍
3:34 actually 🤧
Good call! 😍
Literally covered in goosebumps.
Oh my God flawless this changed my life forever
Wrong. 3:22 😂
Who gathered these 5 geniuses is brilliant. The performance is BREATHTAKING. The fourth phantom’s voice is extraordinary. Nicole Scherzinger is a breeze of fresh spring air . This performance is absolutely my favorite version of phantom of the opera ,hands down ♥️♥️
Same here. I have to say the male voices were the most impressive for me. I watch this video EVERY DAY. But I love her voice too. Just GREAT.
To me the best male voices of the worldwith their queen.
I just watched Sarah Brightman and Antonio Banderas sing this. That's what brought me here. Both amazing performances.
@@Pashasmom1 me tooooo . Was quite impressed by banderas’s voice
What do you think of this with 3 Christines? th-cam.com/video/vpgLXSe3MFE/w-d-xo.html
i seriously seriously seriously dont understand why people think Nicole is lip-syncing , even those who think she is lip-syncing that last note. Thats an insult to Nicole, thats an insult to the royal variety show and the royal family, thats an insult to andrew lloyd webber and the other 4 phantoms. i dont understand why people think they - as in the royal variety organisers and andrew lloyd webber- would ever allow nicole to lip-sync - that goes against their entire philosophy . why would they even allow it to happen and be performed to a royal family member? it doesnt make sense for them to do so. If nicole wanted to lipsync, they wouldnt even ask her to do it, there have been plenty of other christine character singers who would be capable of singing that live, but why choose nicole if she couldnt do it? because of her fame? well they didnt exactly need it did they, the royal variety is fame itself - they dont need her fame to help promote it! and they are all about giving spotlight to new, capable people anyway.
The whole idea of Nicole lipsyncing doesnt make sense , so why is it so hard to believe that she really can sing like that. Dont get me wrong, i'm not some hard core Nicole fan, i used to think she was just a pop singer before this, but i just dont get why people doubt her when shes just shown it here! its obvious she works hard to broaden her singing range and it just kinda seems unfair for people to just hear her sing and then go " pfft its fake, shes just a liar" - blows my mind
Exactly. Well said. PREACH!!
Omg exactly finally a like-minded person. I have known she could sing since she released Hush hush hush with TPCD. Never did I imagine I would see her on a stage production singing opera :3
not to mention she's actually trained in this field
The end part of this piece is always what we call 'click track' pre-recorded to preserve clarity, yes. In Broadway, and in the West End shows of Phantom. She is not singing the last part live. I work in theatre myself. Hope this helps clear up a few things. XO
***** I thought Scherzinger was self taught?
These men have powerful voices.... beautiful❤
Without meaning to be sacrilegious, I think angels were performing this.
The note she hits at 4:19 is the same note I hit when I stub my toe on something
mrtreytony Omfg, I died 😂😂
mrtreytony lmao!
That was good mate 😂😂
the funniest comment i've seen on my life! lmfao
i feel you😅
Soooo much respect for Nicole. I had no idea, but wow.
The only bad thing of this performance is the fact that I can’t have it on Spotify
And can't sing
Yea I wish I could cut out the audience's applause at the start and ending of the performance...
this is why i subscribe to youtube music instead of spotify :p
@@whiitly YT music is far better than spotify. These Iphone users really in their own limited unvierse

The young guy with a beard and old guy with a beard fkn amazing.
THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING they're my favorites, the way they not only sing but also act is so goood
Ramin Karimloo. He’s the definitive Phantom. Along with Sierra Boggess as Christine.
WOW ~ Nicole that was outstanding, and the top notes were full and really enjoyable. I knew you could sing ...... but you can SING.
Hitcher177 In my neighborhood they say she SAAAAANG! :)
+Rachel Santiago same here 😂
There's a whole competition going on between these 4 phantoms when they say "sing for me"
For sure. I think they're preparing her voice to ramp up for the highest note in the end.
I'm pleasantly surprised. I never thought she actually had pipes in her... but here we are... My word that was well done.
Well, it's obviously because of her music. But yes, this was indeed a great performance and she has the vocal ability to perform it.
WOW. For me the best version of the phantom of the opera i have heard. And the 4th "phantom' (01:35) is awesome! In general interesting approach with the phantom quartet. Nicole is super engaging, cant take my eyes off her. And very well designed and atmospheric direction. Hats off.
The 4th phantom has a more of a vampire way of spelling and it goes so well
@@xexinhuxD I didn't know vampires has a special way of spelling
Floor Jansen was better, this version is also fire
Watch Nightwish with Tarja
@@West-Telecom i dislike tarja's voice very much haha. For me its too posed. Nevertheless she has a very prestigious and imposing appearance, quite like a witch.
