(*QUICK EDIT*: I was not expecting such a resounding positive reaction in the comments section. Thank you all for the kind words and personal stories shared! Stay handsome!)
This mask would NOT stay on!
What you going as for Halloween? GO!
I went as Erik one year but my mask had an elastic band so it stayed on
A Clicker from the last of us
Myself.
Astarion, and my bf is going as Gale
A Viking mage or witch. 😊
And you have made me cry with happy tears hearing Music of the Night!!! It's one of my absolute favorites!! Well done!! 😍🥰❤❣
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G and I'm not just saying that because you're my son in law! Fun fact: I was pregnant with your wife when we went to see Phantom of the Opera in Salt Lake City. Played this CD on repeat! Congratulations on, once again, outdoing yourself!
Damn, I didn't think he had it in him to do more gentle, intimate vocals
Eyy thank you! This was definitely a different speed for me! 🙏
@Colm_R_McGuinness This turned out amazing. Is there a type of music you can't cover? DJ_410's head will explode when we get this in front of him for a reaction.
@@ColmRMcGuinness You should do more like this brah🔥🔥
I have to say, you did a freaking awesome job with this different tone.
@@ColmRMcGuinness Welp. You turned ABBA into metal... I would rather see you playing religious songs in metal than singing something so gentle
I have two wolves inside. 1 blown away from the absolute masterpiece I just witnessed, and awed by the care and respect for the original music and left with goosebumps over the swelling orchestrational work driving the music. The 2nd wolf just can't stop staring at the mask XD
I dislike the mask. I'm bi, and I adore Colm's butch boy loveliness. Normally, the whole point of that type of mask is to exaggerate the masculinity or femininity of a face. Not only does the mask hide too much of Colm's lovely face, but it also but it desexes Colm's masculin face. I get the dramatic point and the reference to the play. But Colm is so pretty, I enjoy seeing that.
Um. The mask is part of the story.
@@missdaisysunshine8633 I mentioned that I got the reference to the play.
The wolf who wins is the one you feed 🐺

Oh man, this was amazing! You should find a Christine and do The Phantom of the Opera or The Point of No Return. That would be amazing 😍
Yes Rachel Hardy please!
Or Elizabeth Garozzo.
Omg please.
🔥🔥🔥 Pretty Please?!?!
🤩🤩🤩🙏🙏🙏
Violet Orlandi would also be great
Thank you Colm. This was one of my wife’s favorite pieces, sung by an artist that she loved. I thought I was done crying afterall it’s been 18 months since she passed… but no I’m currently weepin aver her loss all over again.
I’m so sorry for your loss! 😢 Your wife is her own Angel of Music I’m sure! ❤
I don't know you, but reading those few words has made me tear up. The universal human experience of losing someone you love. Though it sounds lame and cliched, all I can say is . . . I'm sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry for your loss, I'm sending you virtual hugs.
Very sorry for your loss, and wishing you much strength 💜
Numbers 6:24-26 “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.”
I know you've gotten famous from your bass range, but in my opinion your baritone range is definitely your strongest suit! You've got a truly amazing baritone voice!
Lyrics for those who need them, (like me~):
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Slowly, gently, night unfurls it's splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you'll live as you've never lived before
Softly, deftly music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be!
Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling, sweet Intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let the darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night!
You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night
Thank you 🫶
Thank you
The swells, the vibrato, the emotions coloring your voice... Bravo, sir! This song, done well, always gives me chills, and yours is one of my favorite versions. I'm just gonna go add it to several playlista now, don't mind me!
Same!
On the one hand I’m really surprised by your musical range. This rendition wouldn’t out of place on the stage… on the other hand, I guess I’m endlessly unsurprised by your amazing musicality. beautiful as ever!
Not an easy song to sing, you killed it my friend! Honestly really cool hearing this sort of performance from you. 🥺
When will we get the collab with you as Christine? ❤
Colm, I have to tell you I have been listening to this musical since I was about 5 years old, as my older sister was a massive Sarah Brightman fan at the time, so needless to say this musical has always had a special place in my heart. However, I was never able to understand how Christine could become so captivated, so enamored of The Phantom, just through his voice. You are the first man I’ve ever heard in 27 years whose voice made that connection. This is the first time where I’ve ever felt that, yes…this is the voice that Christine could fall in love with. Bravo sir, and well done. This was pure joy. Thank you.
The lower register of your voice just really makes me wanna hear you cover Evermore from Beauty and the Beast pls
The Phantom of the Opera is a childhood favorite musical. and you gave me the opportunity to fall in love with this work again❤
Here the same❤
Holy crap 😮 This is a different side of Colm. More musicals please. I'm still wondering how you got to the "soar" note. This is a masterpiece!!!
He is Irish even if he is not a tenor. I hypothesize it is something unique to that gene pool.
The folks in those isles must have a very strong minstrel gene in their genome.
Nope for me. I still think Gerald Butler was singing better. His voice was very confident, well trained, had also dark tune in it and also added with amazing acting talent created absolutely fantastic experience. The guy here struggles. He does his best but he struggles.
@@lubystkaolamonola529
Gerald is great.
But this guy's technique is unique; not just trying to be Gerald.
@@cynthiagonzalez658 NONE tries to be Gerald. This is not the point. The point is to become phantom. Magical angelic voice, with shade of the darkness. This voice should enchant you with its beauty, carry emotions, creep into your soul and haunt your heart with the darkness and like a demonic possession.
Well Colm, as a very choosy connoisseur of all things Phantom of the Opera and when it comes to covers I'm extremely picky, I have to say you did an excellent job of this one. Your more operatic vocals in a majority of the song really carried the weight of the song as it ought to be, and you nailed that final drawn out note quite nicely. Well done! Commendable job!
Thank you so much! That note damn near killed me, haha!
Colm, the range that you have constantly astounds me. That vibrato? Those gorgeous high notes and baritone? The emotion? God, mate. This musical and song have been a favorite for me for over a decade, so I'm rather picky with covers, but your portrayal of the phantom -his longing and sadness- is so haunting and lovely.
I was in the middle of another video when the notification came up. I didn't even hesitate to abandon it.
Me too
I had just woke up looked at my phone just to check the time needless to say I'm here now
This song played at my Great Grandma's funeral. She meant the world to me. She lived in my family's home since I was too young to remember. I put on the Phantom of the Opera DVD for her so often since she couldn't figure out the DVD player on her own. Hearing this brought back memories I had forgotten for a long time.
You did this song such justice, thank you.
He always manages to pick the best songs!!!
Phenomenal job Colm!!!!!
Not in this case. He needs to train more, because he sounds like he is drowning. Geralt Butler was better .
I have heard many many versions of this song but I cannot remember any version as fragile as yours, so beautiful, so haunting. The way you portray the phantom in his sadness and love towards Christine and music is just insanely beautiful. Thank you for this music of the night. I will go to Spotify right away and put it into my lists❤
HOLY COW IS THIS EVEN THE SAME MAN!!???!
Your voice is so beautiful and comforting 🤍
do stuff like this more often, it suits your voice perfectly, the soft tones, with the occasionally bassiness of your voice, perfection
Oh my.... Cap'n 🥰 . Your versatility is astounding, your voice intoxicating. Once again, you have excelled yourself ❤. Hi to Savannah BTW 😘 hope you're both doing well 🫶
that feeling when you're cooking dinner and then you get a notification about a new video. and you drop everything and run to watch this, without a doubt, another masterpiece
I actually cried a little bit at the end, I love Phantom of the Opera, it's one of the few places that I've actually been fortunate enough to see in my life and I actually even managed to see it on Broadway even managed to see it on Broadway
Soooo good!! Please do more from Phantom. Great job!! 😱💜💜💜
Yes please!!! ❤❤❤

WOW! I have always loved the phantom of the opera and this is one of my most liked songs in the movie, he sounds so much like Gérard Butler when he played phantom. I got chills down my arms from that. Also, I agree Melinda, Rachel Hardy, or Violet Orlandi would be perfect for the Christine parts!
It's my lucky day, this is my favourite song from Phantom of the Opera.
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought: yesss, it makes so much sense for Colm to cover this, he can shine both in the high and low notes, and be both powerful and bring out lots of that rare but amazing softness too, it will be perfect! And it was! This is my new favourite version, thank you!
Though I have to add, your version felt like an honest Phantom opening up about what he loves, rather than the deliberate seduction I most often get from the song. Which isn't a bad thing at all. I'd follow this Phantom anywhere ;)
This totally different vocal styling shows your versatility. If I had only heard this, I wouldn't have guessed you were covering it. Well done- again.
I love this song and wanted a cover of it for a while but was unsure if Colm could do it because of how high it is. Oh, what a fool I was! I am completely blown away. This was beautiful.
Just showed to my mom and we both agreed that we have never felt so completely persuaded by a phantom before😄. She loved it.
*Standing applauses* Amazing....
That last note......... unbelievable. The whole thing was just perfect!
your vocal mastery shines so beautifully here. amazing, mindblowing cover, thank you for this!
I’m in tears this is so perfect. Your voice fits Erik SO well.
Lol your user picture.
I never thought this song would be this beautiful with your voice 🤩
I'm blown away by your lovely rendition of this classic. Bravo sir 👏👏👏👏
Chills, I say, just chills. Colm just hits another mindblowing voice addiction. I love his voice it just magic and I can't stop listening.
Moving and gorgeous! Even if the mask kept slipping, your voice surely never did. Absolutely chills over here.
I've gotta say, this one surprised me. I never would've guessed I'd see a Phantom of the Opera cover from Colm. And HOLY MOLY is it incredible! If I had just played this in the background, I don't think I would've recognized his voice. He sounds like a completely different person and still knocked it outta the park! Maybe I'm crazy, but he sounds a little like Josh Groban in this song.
If you ever read this, Colm, you never cease to amaze. I found your channel thanks to the bass covers, but stayed because of your flexibility and raw talent. Stay handsome, you legend. 💚
Well that was the best combo of storytelling-voice and pure singing skill I’ve ever heard for this song. 😱 Gorgeous!!
Absolutely love this! It's so different from your usual style of music. Definitely highlights your vocals as a singer. It's been said 'if you can sing opera, you can sing anything' and you said hold my beer. It's very impressive how you got the right tone for each word and how you held that note at the end. Also big respect for doing this song, everyone usually does the more well known song... petition for you to do some of the other songs from the Phantom of the Opera.
If they ever make another Phantom movie or bring it back to Broadway, they HAVE to cast Colm as the Phantom. This was such an enchanting rendition that captures both the darkness and love within the character.
Absolutely fantastic ❤!!!! Full body chills from this.
Colm doing anything from "Phantom," immediately watching!
Okay this is probably the most wondeful cover rendition I've ever heard. PotO is my favourite musical of all time and the reason why I started making music in the first place. You sang it in such a fragile, meaningful way, that was absolutely mesmerizing. I only recently found you through your heavier covers and would have never imagined you can sing emotionally like this. Awesome work!
okay I am going to need someone to cast Colm in this role IMMEDIATELY. my god, well done, sir! WELL, WELL DONE.
3:44 absolutely spectacular changeovers. My skin has goosebumps
This brings back the feelings of watching the movie for the first time.
Wow, didn't know you could do that with your voice too.. Big fan of all your work, but this definitely surprised me.. would love to hear you tackle more music with this type of voice
I didn't expect you to ever sing this, but you did absolutely amazing. I feel like you would sing hopeless by train very well. Your voice has been an inspiration to me ever since I started to listen to you, thank you.
Every song you make your own. I was curious as it's different from what I've come to expect of the songs you choose to cover. I am blown away, good sir. You've taken a musical theater standard and truly made it your own, unique and unmistakably yours. BRAVO!
I've been a fan of Phantom since I was a child, I've heard so many versions, and in one swoop you have taken a top spot. Bravo, bravo, bravissimo! 👏👏👏🌹
My god! There is nothing this guy can't sing! He is an absolute genius and very good to look at too. What a man!
I just showed this song to my wife, she is a massive fan of the Phantom of the Opera and this was her favorite song of the movie. She listened to it and at first she believed it WAS the original, then listening longer she said that you, Colm McGuiness, weren't just Singing the song you BECAME the song.
One of my favorite songs from when I was a child. It was in my mother's old cd collection of classical and opera music. I miss her and seeing this pop up, hearing it, brings back happy memories of my childhood and mom. Thank you. 🐈
Please do more songs from this musical! This was wonderful
From intro to end i felt this in my bones and i was in tears...im a sucker for phantom of the opera...and this was one of my favorite songs
This has been my favorite movie for 20 years now, and the play is even better. This rendition just gave me goosebumps the same way the original version has every time I’ve heard it.
Oh my god the chills I got from this! Your voice is heavenly, so strong and soft at the same time! I adore this musical so much, can't wait to hear more song covers from you!
One of my favorites! I love it when we hear your upper range it gives depth to your music.
The swings between powerful and all encompassing to vulnerable and tender were phenomenal
Colm, please do NOT ever stop making music!!! The more I hear you, the more I love your voice! You seriously have one of the best voices I've heard and are one of the most talented people I can think of!!
Colm! This is gorgeous! Please please do more intimate vocals like this! Your voice is prefect for them! Maybe some stuff from Jekyll and Hyde, or from The Dracula Musical!
Also the counte of mounte cristo muscial. Imagine him singing Hell to your Doorstep and A Story Told in his angelic voice
There are some amazing pieces in Man from La Manche too
Good comment.
I'm glad to live at an age where you exist.
Wow, amazing. This is my favorite Phantom song... so powerful and moving! Thank you for this!
Damn, there are no words. This was amazing! 🙌🙌🙌
I can't wait to see what you do next.
I am such a fan of Phantom of the Opera! I am so glad I came across this! You make such an amazing Phantom!! I'm literally screaming.
This is absolutely stunning; I'm in awe!🔥 I am in literal tears over here!😭 Your talents know no bounds.
This was amazing. I am a metal head and am totally blown away by it.
OMG, this is one of my favorites and you NAILED it. You're so talented, thank you for sharing this!
Your vocal range never disappoints. Very well done Sir, hearing your covers is always a pleasure
Didn't expect this! Amazing...as always! This much talent makes my day🎉
Great performance. I can tell you put your heart in as well. Thank you for sharing your talents with the world!
You've absolutely knocked it out of the park once again, Colm. This musical holds an especially dear place in my heart, and I don't know how many times I've watched it. Thank you for another stunning performance.
Here comes Colm to give me another favorite version of a song.
God bless you, beautiful man.
I don't think I have anything to say besides "Amazing" :) I'll be rewatching this a lot in the future!
*takes notes on voice control while contacting Webber himself to see if he'll let you be the next Erik*
Seriously incredible
I'm in tears. ♥
Beautiful rendition, stirring up loads of memories in me. I didn't know this was exactly what I needed today.
Once upon a time,,another Irishman named Colm took the stage with this mask and song. Today, you've taken the torch he's passed and gone beyond the point of no return with this amazing rendition. Bravo, monsieur! 👏👏👏👏👏
This is the only version that emphasizes the emotional meaning of the lyrics and takes us floating on the music of the night.
Wow!!!!
As Always, his performance is fantastic!
Absolutely beautiful!!! I’ve seen this show in person, and you would make a outstanding Phantom❤
Your version of one of my favorite Opera songs was so beautiful 😭
O my gosh💖 I absolutely love all of these songs! I have the move and the book, this musical was actually my first piano recital, and I know all of these songs by memory. My favorite song to sing from this is “Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again”! This is absolutely amazing! Love this!💖
I cant beg you enough to do more of phantom of the opera!
It's my most favorite musical and you did such an unbelievably amazing job here!
Each and every song would sound perfect with your rendition of them!!!
Absolutely sweet intoxication. Your voice is perfect, heavenly. The best Phantom Ive heard singing this. Thank you for this indulgence ❤
Words...cannot describe how brilliantly you killed that. Mesmerizing, as it should be. Bravo, sir. I'm going to put this on repeat 🙌🖤
❤ This is the best rendition I heard of the Music of The Night !
I knew before I played this that it was going to be amazing, I think this is one of the best versions of this song I have ever heard
You really can sing anything. my gosh... this was just exquisite ♥
Wow. You did this beautifully. I remember the movie version came out when I was a kid and fall in love with the musical. Now I can not hear this song any other way
I wish there was more of these this is AMAZING!!
Fantastic, plain and simple. Colms back probably hurts every night from carrying around all that talent!
I was driving my grandmother to the grocery store today and this started playing in my car b/c it's on my Spotify favorites list, and my grandmother said
"I don't know this singer but I think he sounds like Bocelli" 😄
So I was listening to some of your other tracks, which I really like, the folky stuff with attitude, then this popped up in my feed and I thought 'no - way' then I listened. The rest of my world disappeared and I couldn't stop listening. So beautiful. I'm a 64 year old stocky engineer who is now sobbing his heart out!
Best cover I've ever heard of it - a true masterwork!
Hearing this in your voice just soothes the soul. Beautiful rendition, hope to hear more musicals from you in the near future! ^_^
I would buy a whole album of this tender beautiful voice! More tender love songs please!
