+Shawn Leong She needs to work on her diction. I couldn't understand a word she was singing while I understood Josh fine. This song and role also requires a classical voice which Josh does reasonablly but Kelly is belting too much. You can't possibly compare Kelly to the likes of Sarah Brightman and Sierra Boggess.
Since i will not be able to come to a live performance , i content myself by listening to ALL your music on youtube ! A PURE TREAT ! MAY GOD ALMIGHTY BLESS YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES
The Phantom of the Opera is the greatest musical of all time. The story is so heartwarming and the music is beyond words! Whoever is reading this comment please watch the movie or the musical, that's "all I ask of you".
It is a truly breathtaking show. I have seen it 8 times on Broadway, tours and community theaters. Every cast member add something new and special o the show and it never gets old. And I cry every time at the end. My all time favorite :)
I like it. The people who complain are purist who wants to hear the same things as is (over and over). Kelly's voice here is like broadway mixed with pop. So she uses mostly her head voice and then she has pop inflections like a note ending in obvious vibrato. She doesn't do pop runs or anything to stray from the melody. Also, it is clear that the volume is lower on her parts (as to not overtake Josh in terms of volume). Those people saying Kelly needs to match Josh in talent is just plain ignorant. Josh is a popera/adult contemporary singer and he is amazing at what he does. However, can you imagine him singing rock or the blues, country or even r&b? Kelly sings all of these with ease and changes her tone/technique to match the genres such as doing growls, falsettos, twangs, and melisma as necessary. I believe Josh's intention was to have a powerful singer like Kelly who will sing the song in a more audible fashion (you can clearly here the lyrics as opposed to a traditional opera singer).
lea210 Couldn't be better said. As a musical theatre, and not really pop, enthusiast/singer, I think Kelly actually does a fantastic job with this song. Like, people, she's not playing Christine; she's doing a cover and she does it beautifully.
This is one of my favorite renditions of this song. Josh is a caring, soothing Raoul while Kelly sounds young and hopeful like a teenage Christine hearing the words she's always longed to hear.
This is an absolutely breathtaking duet!!!! Who would have thought that Kelly Clarkson and Josh Groban would sound so fabulous together??!!! I am so excited about this new CD!!!! I can't wait to buy it for myself and for all of the special people in my life!!!!
This is nice..Kelly is showing her true singing talents ....of course whatever Josh sings it's just wonderful...keep up the good work Josh....we all love u...keep on making us h a p p y
Like everyone else, I was skeptical. But holy crap Kelly! You nailed it girl! I expected wonderful things from Groban, but damn! Kelly was the one blowing me away!
Saw Phantom Of The Opera in San Francisco. It is the best musical I have ever seen. It's spectacular to see it onstage in person. The emotions and feelings are unforgettable. This was incredible.
filigree You are listening with young(er) ears and a fondness of Pop music. I didn't discover Groban until late 2013 because I don't listen to Pop Music - my niece convinced me to give him a listen to. I'm older (Beatles came out when I was a teen - ;o) with a strong Choral background. Explains a lot, doesn't it.
Had to come here and listen to this outstanding performance by 2 outstanding artists. Love Kelly's voice and this shows more and more what an amazing talent she is. Thanks Josh for asking Kelly to do this duet with you. Love you 2.
Raoul gets a lot of undeserved hate just because he isn't Erik (the Phantom). A friend of mine put it best when he said that he sees Raoul as the classic guy who's rich with material things but poor in his heart and Christine fills that void. He finally finds someone he can connect with and wants to share life with. Erik, as pitiful as he is, seems to want someone to be subservient to him. All his lyrics talk about Christine either singing for him or serving him in some other way. Raoul seems to want to experience life with Christine as opposed to her doing anything specific for him. "Love me. That's all I ask of you". (Granted, Raoul in the book does a lot of the same creepy, stalker-y things Erik does, but at least his intentions were noble; he wanted to find out what was going on with her while Erik was manipulating/kidnapping her).
I totally get the point! On the flip side though, Erik uses his voice to get Christine to love him and follow him because he feels nothing else will work. (I use 'love' loosely, considering his circumstances he probably doesn't know the real feeling of love, so in his mind him having power over her is love. Just a thought) Also If you saw someone with a horribly scarred face you probably wouldn't love them either. Except Gerard Butler, he made the Phantom look good even with all the scars!
+TheaterRaven When It Comes To Phantom Of The Opera Cant Help But Agree However When It Comes To The Official Sequel "Love Never Dies" Well Lets Just Say That He Deserves A Lot More Hate Than He Gets
+Andrew Ginez (Sora) Which is exactly why, among many other reasons, I like to pretend that the sequel takes place only in Christine's head. She became the stereotypical bored aristocratic housewife and fantasized the events of "Love Never Dies" to cope. That's the only logical explanation I can think of for the sequel existing (although I would've preferred if ALW just left the story alone, no sequel needed).
I thought I wasn't going to like Kelly in this but I loved it. You definitely have to let go of your expectations of the usual operatic voice and appreciate it on its own.
Absolutely stunning Kelly has a versatile voice ! She can sing any type of music, duets, you name it and Josh he has a wonderful voice as well. The Phantom of the Opera is one of my all time favorite movies and I love singing along.
How does her voice keep getting better and better? Every couple of years I think, wow she really stepped it up this must be the peak of her voice. Wrong every time.
Aloha Josh Groban and Kelly Clarkson !!!!!! You both sang beautifully "All I Ask Of You." Followed both of your careers when you both started and you both have blossomed up into the musical sky and loved by millions of people !!!!! Am 78 years old and love all your songs !!!! Gratefully, Robert S.J. Hu August 15, 2020. God bless you both !!!!!!!!!
Pleasantly surprised by this. I've tried to listen to all the RUclips videos of this song with various artists. Aside from knowing the basics about Kelly Clarkson I wasn't really familiar with her voice. Of course, I could listen to Josh Groban read the phone book and be transfixed but I'm glad that he found a worthy partner for this duet.
Lots of really well known singers have performed this song and done so technically very well. However, the Josh Groban and Kelly Clarkson version is the only one that makes me forget it is a song, and takes me simply to the feeling at it's core. Kelly's voice has a lovely sweet vulnerability that is absent from other versions, and of course Josh's voice is clear and consistently beautiful also. They should both be proud of this exceptional rendition of this beautiful song.
I'm in tears. If I could marry a voice, it would be Josh's. And Kelly is my favorite person in the world, and I am SO happy she gets to show off her prowess here. This is beautiful.
"All I Ask Of You" [Raoul (Cliff):] No more talk of darkness, forget these wide-eyed fears; I'm here, nothing can harm you, my words will warm and calm you. Let me be your freedom, let daylight dry your tears; I'm here, with you, beside you, to guard you and to guide you. [Christine (Sarah):] Say you'll love me ev'ry waking moment; turn my head with talk of summertime. Say you need me with you now and always; promise me that all you say is true, that's all I ask of you. [Raoul:] Let me be your shelter, let me be your light; you're safe, no one will find you, your fears are far behind you. [Christine:] All I want is freedom, a world with no more night; and you, always beside me, to hold me and to hide me. [Raoul:] Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime; let me lead you from your solitude. Say you want me with you, here beside you, anywhere you go, let me go too, that's all I ask of you. [Christine:] Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime. [Together:] Say the word and I will follow you. Share each day with me, each night, each morning. [Christine:] Say you love me ... [Raoul:] You know I do. [Together:] Love me, that's all I ask of you ... Love me, that's all I ask of you.
I don't think i've ever been this enraptured by a male voice before. Not that I've never liked or even loved male voices before, but josh has this, calming timbre to his voice, almost motherly, like with every word he sings he's telling you everything is okay and you believe it.
I didn't expect to like this. I didn't expect an ounce of me to like this combo. But as soon as either of them opened their mouths I was so drawn into the music. I cannot to explain how happy it makes me to hear Josh singing Phantom. And Kelly really surprised me with her ability to blend far better than expected with a classically trained singer. I am so happy in every possible way about this song and this album.
Simply Beautiful!!! Josh & Kelly sing this with pure great voices together!! Well done!! ( I did not look at the video, just listened to the song) so I've no comment on the Opera or comparisons of Opera singers, don't care for Opera personally. This was sung with heart and soul by both, BEAUTIFUL!!!
This is so beautiful, but I can't help but get tickled at what true love really looks like. It's waking up each day to stinky breath, a house full of rambunctious kids, fast food because parents are too exhausted to cook, misunderstandings, loved ones taking all their frustrations of the world out on you, but yet waking up each morning because the good times far outweigh the bad and true love fights together to overcome all the bad stuff.
I think literally stopped breathing during this entire song. What an amazing duet, Kelly is amazing, and perfection. Josh, again a phenomenal job. Love this, it gave me goosebumps.
In the end, Kelly Clarkson will always be remembered by everyone as one of the greatest vocalists to grace Earth. She is a gem! Josh as always is incredible.
Love them both individually and was so excited to hear them together. KC's voice isn't traditional Broadway but it works somehow. That last high note...JFC.
I was about to say something about this duet combination then I heard the son and there's no words to explain how perfect this perfomance is....Speechless...
This is truly a touching rendition of this wonderful piece. Josh Groban ... speechless as usual. But Kelly Clarkson's take on Christine really shines! What a gem of a find for them to have done this duet together.

There's a huge difference between opera voice and musical voice. Kelly's voice is the musical one and it suites this song perfectly as Phantom of the Opera is a musical. Well done!
+Ilyas Vekilov Neither Kelly nor Josh have received operatic training. Kelly comes from a pop background and just happens to have a good and powerful voice, which is why she can sing songs from the musicals so well. Josh did receive voice training but did not specifically train as an opera singer, which is normally performed without amplification. This is why he is therefore able to perform both operatic pieces and music of other genres comfortably The combination of the two voices on this recording is excellent and works perfectly.

+blackbeasthamish I agree 100%. There are people who say that Kelly is not operatic enough here. I think, she doesn't have to be. Because Josh's classical crossover voice suites perfectly with Kelly's pop-musical voice. :)
In less than a month, I'll be dancing to this with my best friend and the love of my life as our first dance together as husband and wife. Phantom of the Opera was the very first thing that brought us together, and he proposed after singing Point of No Return with me at karaoke, changing the closing words to "marry me, that's all I ask of you". It's a moment I will cherish for the rest of my life. :') It's even more amazing that Josh Groban has always been one of my absolute favorite vocalists, so I'm BEYOND thankful that he recorded this beautiful rendition with Kelly and that I'll be able to share it with my husband on that day. ♥
GlossandSparkle i just used *insta PHAMOUS. C0m* earlier and all my followers are legit,i sent them a request and they followed me back and liked my pictures! so awesome
Josh and Kelly did a wonderful job on this duet I really enjoyed it, wish I could see them sing it in person have been a fan of them both for a while. Kelly u are beautiful hope to meet u and Josh some day. Please do more duets together
My new favorite song! Kelly and Josh need to collaborate more often. Kelly gives me goosebumps like Streisand does. Pure perfection. Now I have to pull out my copy of Phantom Of The Opera to watch:)
Joshie, LOVED the song from phantom of the opera. Gorgious ,beautiful stunning. Great job bro. I do love you. I miss seeing you sing and wish you would do more performances on RUclips so I can see them. Here's a hug from me
Can't stay away. I'm going to see Kelly at Radio City July 16th. Maybe Josh might be there and he and Kelly will perform this song. I'll be in heaven and so will everyone else in that beautiful theater!!!!
Your talents are definitely a gift from our Lord. Beautiful song truly reaches a heart, and interprets ones innermost longings the way nothing else ever could. It especially intensifies love: and that's the #1 thing God wants his children to do. Thank you. What a beautiful voice.
I came here for Kelly..and WOW...she didn't disappoint! That note at the end that was belted..and not a head voice like the usual rendition was fantastic. Lovely duet. Yay Josh and Kelly!
CLCM28 I knew Kelly had it in her to be so awesome on this duet. Apparently Josh did too. Can't get over what a talented and diverse artist Kelly is. She and Josh are supper amazing on this duet. There's a SPECIAL tenderness that they bring to this version...
I don't care how many musicals I watch, how many love songs I listen to, none of them will make me ball my eyes out like this one right here. No matter the adaptation. This one. Tears. Ugly crying. They love eachother so much and they deserve the world 😭😭😭😭
This is *beautiful*, Josh. You both brought your talent in this and blew me out of my boots. Thank you *so* much for sharing this with us! Edit: No, you know what? This is the most beautiful duet I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. It had the hope and pain of love and the beauty of an angel at the same time. An opera piece sung by the two of you somehow surpasses the original and soars to new heights. This was an evocative performance and I, with a enormous smile, like and favorite this for both relaxation and those days where I *need* people like the two of you to lift me up.
Josh and Kelly have both been gifted and blessed by God with beautiful voices!
Kelly's high glass-like voice perfectly complements josh's deep bass- like voice. this rendition is divine
You won't hear an argument from me!
After she sucks the life out of trafficking victims from their hijacking of communication towers.

I wish sadira singing voice was kelly clarkson if disney did season 4 Aladdin animated series back in 2005
Music is about interpretation, not replication. I think Kelly has encapsulated the meaning of the song very well! One of the best voices around!
+Shawn Leong Totally agree.
+Shawn Leong TOTALLY AGREE. WELL SAID !!!
And Kelly is a 3-time Grammy winner, so she's already PROVEN to the world she's one of the best female singers of our generation!

Kelly slayed her part here, I'm pretty floored. The best vocalist ever from American Idol
I tuned loop , there is so much grace, voluptuousness and romanticism, everything I love
I absolutely love this duet with Kelly Clarkson...I've listened to it at least 100 times n never get tired of it...looking forward to next 100 times
The Kelly Clarkson duet is an eye opener for me. I've not been a Kelly Clarkson fan, but she does have a beautiful voice proven here!
I can't believe I'm just discovering that this duet exists. I can't get enough of it now!
This is one of my favorite renditions of this song. Josh is a caring, soothing Raoul while Kelly sounds young and hopeful like a teenage Christine hearing the words she's always longed to hear.

It was awesome. I loved it.

Beautiful song, beautiful music, beautiful voice..

yes!
That end high note she did. .. wow. ... Very Celine Dion!
filigree that high note was shrill and garish! and so abrupt when she first came in. What were the producers thinking?
Ethel grogan I wasn't listening with earphones but through my speakers it sounded kinda awesome
filigree I'm with you....beautiful...
Instant goosebumps! Kelly is just incredible..

These two should make the music for the next Disney movie
Maybe Josh Groban can do Frozen 2
Aladdin's Joy This is just a cover, they didn’t actually right the song.
Like they would waste their talents on a Disney movie
Josh's songs have a way of restoring my faith in humanity. Beautiful song and a great duet.
Had to come here and listen to this outstanding performance by 2 outstanding artists. Love Kelly's voice and this shows more and more what an amazing talent she is. Thanks Josh for asking Kelly to do this duet with you. Love you 2.
Josh groban has got one of the greatest voices. He can sing anything.
Their voices are so powerful and beautiful!

Who else cried while listening to this AMAZING VOICE?! I really want to sing this now -- JUST LOVE Phantom!!

RoxyDarr I did. I cry easily. But all the songs in Phantom of the Opera are just so beautiful... I can't help but cry. haha
I cry EVERY time I hear this song. Especially, this version, but the other versions sung by the opera singers bring me to ugly crying, too.
Beautiful song from Phantom of The Opera. 🦢🦢🦢🫂

"All I Ask Of You"
[Raoul (Cliff):]
No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.
Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.

Say you'll love me ev'ry waking moment;
turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you.
[Raoul:]
Let me be your shelter,
let me be your light;
you're safe, no one will find you,
your fears are far behind you.
[Christine:]
All I want is freedom,
a world with no more night;
and you, always beside me,
to hold me and to hide me.
[Raoul:]
Then say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime;
let me lead you from your solitude.
Say you want me with you, here beside you,
anywhere you go, let me go too,
that's all I ask of you.
[Christine:]
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime.
[Together:]
Say the word and I will follow you.
Share each day with me, each night, each morning.
[Christine:]
Say you love me ...
[Raoul:]
You know I do.
[Together:]
Love me, that's all I ask of you ...
Love me, that's all I ask of you.
Thank you kind person.
Thanks mans

Soo beautiful together 🌹🌟
WOW..... THAT HIGH NOTES OF KELLY CLARKSON... LISTEN TO THE 3.22 TO 3.27
Finally All i ask of you by Josh.........its an absolute treat for the ears........ 100% perfect
I didn't expect to like this. I didn't expect an ounce of me to like this combo. But as soon as either of them opened their mouths I was so drawn into the music. I cannot to explain how happy it makes me to hear Josh singing Phantom. And Kelly really surprised me with her ability to blend far better than expected with a classically trained singer. I am so happy in every possible way about this song and this album.
Might be because she is classically trained as well :)
Great!.. Best song on CD...IMO... Josh needs to do a duet album.. Heck, Kelly should too for that matter! ! Amazingly talented singers!
Josh and Kelly are amazing!!! Beautifully done!
Simply Beautiful!!! Josh & Kelly sing this with pure great voices together!! Well done!! ( I did not look at the video, just listened to the song) so I've no comment on the Opera or comparisons of Opera singers, don't care for Opera personally. This was sung with heart and soul by both, BEAUTIFUL!!!
Absolutely spectacular!! Josh is one of the best male vocalists, and Kelly one of the best female vocalists. Together, it's a superb performance!!
OMG THIS IS KELLY CLARKSON?! Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I've never loved either of them more than i do listening to this song now!
Oh my goodness! Most Romantic song 💗🔥🌹🌹💗 they should make Many more duet songs together!
This is so beautiful, but I can't help but get tickled at what true love really looks like. It's waking up each day to stinky breath, a house full of rambunctious kids, fast food because parents are too exhausted to cook, misunderstandings, loved ones taking all their frustrations of the world out on you, but yet waking up each morning because the good times far outweigh the bad and true love fights together to overcome all the bad stuff.

In the end, Kelly Clarkson will always be remembered by everyone as one of the greatest vocalists to grace Earth. She is a gem! Josh as always is incredible.
I love all the discussion of the vocals, but how about a second to appreciate the instrumental element of this song? Just beautiful.
Love them both individually and was so excited to hear them together. KC's voice isn't traditional Broadway but it works somehow. That last high note...JFC.

I havent heard a voice so powerful , beautiful and soothing as Josh's in all my life. Simply beautiful!

Josh Groban...Cast him in the next Phantom of the Opera. I don't care if they make him Ra or the Phantom..this men needs to play in musicals too
This will be my wedding song
In less than a month, I'll be dancing to this with my best friend and the love of my life as our first dance together as husband and wife. Phantom of the Opera was the very first thing that brought us together, and he proposed after singing Point of No Return with me at karaoke, changing the closing words to "marry me, that's all I ask of you". It's a moment I will cherish for the rest of my life. :') It's even more amazing that Josh Groban has always been one of my absolute favorite vocalists, so I'm BEYOND thankful that he recorded this beautiful rendition with Kelly and that I'll be able to share it with my husband on that day. ♥

OH MY GOD what a proposal 😍😍😍💖💖
Josh, you're a musical genius, Kelly I love your silky voice... Thank you for this song so much.

I want to see Josh and Kelly sing this song LIVE NOW!!! That note at 3:22... NAILED IT!!! Kelly Clarkson and Josh Groban two of my favorites artist.
How is it I've never heard of Josh Groban before today... wow! Love it!
One of my favourite songs of all time...
The vocal combination my life has always asked for!!
Yes Lawd~~~~
Josh and Kelly did a wonderful job on this duet I really enjoyed it, wish I could see them sing it in person have been a fan of them both for a while. Kelly u are beautiful hope to meet u and Josh some day. Please do more duets together
My new favorite song! Kelly and Josh need to collaborate more often. Kelly gives me goosebumps like Streisand does. Pure perfection. Now I have to pull out my copy of Phantom Of The Opera to watch:)
Joshie, LOVED the song from phantom of the opera. Gorgious ,beautiful stunning. Great job bro. I do love you. I miss seeing you sing and wish you would do more performances on RUclips so I can see them. Here's a hug from me
Kelly Clarkson can sing ANYTHING! Absolutely Captivating!!!!
Can't stay away. I'm going to see Kelly at Radio City July 16th. Maybe Josh might be there and he and Kelly will perform this song. I'll be in heaven and so will everyone else in that beautiful theater!!!!
One of my favourite songs & for my kids growing up, beautifully done both of you!
Just stunning! I got a lump in my throat when Kelly says "Say you love me". I hope they perform this live together.
This song is beautiful..
Your talents are definitely a gift from our Lord. Beautiful song truly reaches a heart, and interprets ones innermost longings the way nothing else ever could. It especially intensifies love: and that's the #1 thing God wants his children to do. Thank you. What a beautiful voice.
I came here for Kelly..and WOW...she didn't disappoint! That note at the end that was belted..and not a head voice like the usual rendition was fantastic. Lovely duet. Yay Josh and Kelly!
CLCM28 I knew Kelly had it in her to be so awesome on this duet. Apparently Josh did too. Can't get over what a talented and diverse artist Kelly is. She and Josh are supper amazing on this duet. There's a SPECIAL tenderness that they bring to this version...
I have always loved Josh.. and I appreciated Kelly but now.... Go Kelly, Wow.. she is maturing into an amazing voice, and versatile performer.
Absolutely Breath taking beautifully sung ❤
Beautiful duet, such sorrow but much happiness
Wow..just wow...i'm stunned..
I don't care how many musicals I watch, how many love songs I listen to, none of them will make me ball my eyes out like this one right here. No matter the adaptation. This one. Tears. Ugly crying. They love eachother so much and they deserve the world 😭😭😭😭
Beautiful rendition! My favorite song from Phantom of the Opera!
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!! We forget sometimes how good Kelly is! Fabulous Josh!!
One of my favorites from The Phantom!
Beautiful Music, Beautiful Lyrics, Beautiful voices. This is a wonderful performance.
Music as is should always be. The best....a treasure recording.
This is *beautiful*, Josh. You both brought your talent in this and blew me out of my boots. Thank you *so* much for sharing this with us!
Edit: No, you know what? This is the most beautiful duet I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. It had the hope and pain of love and the beauty of an angel at the same time. An opera piece sung by the two of you somehow surpasses the original and soars to new heights. This was an evocative performance and I, with a enormous smile, like and favorite this for both relaxation and those days where I *need* people like the two of you to lift me up.
Can not wait until April 28th. I bet this will be one of his biggest selling albums. LOVE IT!
this song is so amazing. they both killed it. its also the only song that will make my anxiety less crazy.
King Queer IKR it's like you just melt away with the music
Belo belissimo
