This is her standout song. She sounded great in the movie as a whole, but this song made me cry. Her voice is near perfect, especially seeing she was 16 here.
Emmy Rossum is soooo beautiful. I mean...she captures so much emotion in her face, and when she sings it's just like arrghhhhhhhhh so beautiful. And when she sings from 2:33 onward I get constant chills. She was 16 years old when she got cast. That's incredible for a 16 year old, or any age for that matter!
the monkey box was left by now elderly husband Raoul. However, the rose and the ring that were already on the gravestone were left by the phantom, showing that he too has continued to love her his whole life.
Some songs help as coping mechanisms, and this song really does. It's sad, because the woman lost her father who she loved a lot, but it's hopeful as well and she wants to be strong and move on. She's acknowledging her sadness but knows she wants to keep living. This song always reminds me of my grandpa. Thank you for uploading this!
In my personal opinion, I like this version of the song better than Sierra's. Sierra has a lovely voice and power when she sings, but I felt Emmy's was more personal. It sounded more to me like a daughter mourning over her father whom she loved dearly. The gentleness, the sweetness, the innocence, the desperation all seem more real to me. Sierra's felt more like a huge show, although it was done well. But then again, Sierra's was meant to be an anniversary.
I saw this live in Toronto when I was 12 years old and it was one of the most exhilerating moments of my entire life. Completely filled with amazement, still does it to me everytime I watch it.
"wishing i could here your voice again, knowing that i never would" i feel the same about my nan and grandad:/ my grandads last words to me were "bye, i love you" makes me cry everytime i think of that:'( i love this song so much! because it's like im telling it myself. it relates so much to me. so thankyou:)
I saw this show in New York over 20 years ago, and there was most definitely no children by the phantom in the performance I saw. This movie was a pretty faithful adaptation of the broadway musical to my recollection.
Sometimes I sing this sing and think about the first person I fell in love with. Not long after realizing that I loved them they told me to never speak to them again.
So glad to be a happy "stupid" "dumb" "ignorant" movie buff with this timeless film that all can cherish and enjoy whenever we want without being biased by Broadway and theatre and it's 100+ versions of the original musical Emmy and Gerard are our Christine and Phantom... deal with it!
I dunno. I was a 11 year-old boy who loved it, and still love it for 8 long years. Does that seems suitable for an awnser? But i believe we are weird, somehow. In a better meaning of it.
I watched this movie for the first time last night, i cried a little then afterwards i find out my best friend has fallen in love with my boyfriend... so now i keep listening to these songs over and over... especially all i ask of you...
When I was little I would skip this part because I thought it was boring, now I watch it and start tearing up. I want to play this part just so I can sing this song
The song is about sorrow and the inability to let go of a lost loved one. Weeping angels are very appropiate. One needs to have experienced this kind of pain to comprehend it's meaning. Hopefully an older person ... however, loss can come at any age. So let your words always be kind. No one is guarenteed tomorrow.
Perfect...I was filled with The Angels take Manhattan emotions and suddenly this song popped into my head. Now I can't listen to it without being overwhelmed by the feels! "Passings bells and sculpted angels Cold and monumental Seem for you the wrong companions You were warm and gentle" ...I blame Moffat for everything.
Doing this song for a talent show, but Emmy sets the standards too high for me to reach-3 she was the perfect Christine and Gerard was the perfect Christine. ALW knew what he was doing when he chose this cast. Amazing.
emmy really sang this beautifully whoever's her voice coach needa pat themselves on the back cuz this performance is a marvel she really hit every note
This is her standout song. She sounded great in the movie as a whole, but this song made me cry. Her voice is near perfect, especially seeing she was 16 here.
She was 16 when she played Christine... production started in 2002, movie released just before she turned 18... makes her even more incredible, yes?
Her voice is just so beautiful. It goes perfectly with Gerard's voice when they sing together. I think they cast them perfectly.

Emmy can still sing. and it's a MOVIE, not a stage play. they are both talented in their own right.
I remember having this song on repeat for months and crying my eyes when I was 11 and my grandfather died. It sums up our relationship perfectly.
makes me think of some one very special. my hero. my dad. love u dad .rest with the angels x
I love her voice and this song

This was my Dad's and I favorite movie. Now I dedicate this song to him. RIP Daddy.
All the songs in this movie give me chills. So beautiful.
I can't believe Emmy was only 16 when she performed this... she is amazing! Stupefying, breathtaking, spectacular!
I saw this live in Toronto when I was 12 years old and it was one of the most exhilerating moments of my entire life. Completely filled with amazement, still does it to me everytime I watch it.
Am I the only one freaking out about the weeping angels......
She has the most amazing voice! Truly sounds like some kind of an angel...I love you, Emmy Rossum!

yeah, no, that's okay, I didn't need my heart anyway.

This song is so beautiful, the emotion this character portrays in this song is simply haunting. I get chills at times, this is so pretty. :)

I just watched the movie again after a year and still cried buckets. Perfectly cast. Brilliant!
Love this show. Saw it 6 years ago and going back to see it again this year. One of the best songs in it too!
Emmy Rossum! PEFECTLY CAST! :D She was amazing in that role!
I watched this movie for the first time last night, i cried a little
then afterwards i find out my best friend has fallen in love with my boyfriend... so now i keep listening to these songs over and over... especially all i ask of you...
when I pass away I would love to have this song sang at my funeral
"Sometimes it seems if I just dreamed Somehow you'd be here" . . . :(
anyone else find it symbiotic that Raoul is wearing all white (and on a white horse) and the phantom all black
LOVE THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA!
I get chills every single time i hear this song
Emmy Rossum with Sierra Boggess are my favourite singers
im 11 and my sister is 13 we loved this movie for ever and my sis is obsessed with it
this song always gives me chills!
Is it just me who gets chills from all the angels...weeping angels?
When I was little I would skip this part because I thought it was boring, now I watch it and start tearing up. I want to play this part just so I can sing this song
*Sigh*...Not scared of weeping angles. *Blinks*. See? Nothing. Now listen to the epicness of Phantom of the Opera.
Angels voice 😘😇😳
Ok since I heard this beautiful woman singing, I truly believe in angels...
Missing my dad so much on Father's Day. Anyone know how I feel?
GUYS. it's not about what she's wearing.. it's about the song, the epicness of this musical and film.. DAMN IT,.
I love this song...so moving...
Gorgeous song sung by a gorgeous woman.
But the whole time I was thinking "DON'T BLINK DON'T BLINK DON'T BLINK DON'T BLINK"
Wow I cant believe Emmy was the youngest woman 2 play Christine when she was 18

Doing this song for a talent show, but Emmy sets the standards too high for me to reach-3 she was the perfect Christine and Gerard was the perfect Christine. ALW knew what he was doing when he chose this cast. Amazing.

I'm looking for audition songs and this is one of my preferred options, i absolutely LOVE this song.

"The angels have the phonebox;" that's my favourite, I've got that on a T-shirt!
