Lyrics:
In sleep he sang to me
in dreams he came...
that voice which calls to me
and speaks my name
And do I dream again?
For now I find
the Phantom of the Opera is there-
inside my mind...
Sing once again with me
our strange duet...
My power over you
grows stronger yet...
And though you turn from me,
to glance behind,
the Phantom of the Opera is there-
inside your mind...
Those who have seen your face
draw back in fear...
I am the mask you wear...
It's me they hear...
Your/my spirit and my/your voice,
in one combined:
the Phantom of the Opera is there-
inside your/my mind...
He's there, the Phantom of the Opera...
Beware the Phantom of the Opera...
In all your fantasies,
you always knew
that man and mystery...
...were both in you...
And in this labyrinth,
where night is blind,
the Phantom of the Opera is there/here-
inside your/my mind...
He's there the Phantom of the Opera
Sing, Sing my Angel of music, sing, Sing For Me!
This song was just begging to be made metal.
\m/
Tali'Zorah vas Normandy this is metal....
George Jefferson, I think Tali'Zorah vas Normandy was referring to the original version to which they are now singing a metal cover of. Check it out
EnoEnasni Pretty much
+EnoEnasni metal isn't just electric guitars....
James Baird While that may be true, Nightwish *is* considered symphonic metal. Do some research before calling people ignorant...
Phantom of the Opera was made for metal, I tell you.
Indeed. I think even Andrew Lloyd Webber would love this cover.
yes it was
Correction: Made for _Power Metal_
+ sympho metal
StarlitSeafoam hhhhjjhhhhhhn
I like Nightwish, I love Phantom of the Opera. However, I rolled my eyes when I saw this. I thought it just wouldn't mix.
Fuck's sake I hate being proved wrong all the time
That's why I'm not in the stock market.
Try the live version :)
Oh, HELL yes, the live version! The vocal solo at the end really showed Tarja's range and skills! She practically brought the skies down!
It’s freaking Nightwish. They make EVERYTHING better. XD
Look not to the shame of the past brother, but forward to the glory of the future.
I Love this version, the male singer sounds like Alucard from Hellsing lol.
... I can never hear this song the same again XD
Kelly M I love Hellsing and that makes the song even better.
omfg I cannot unhear that
Ok, someone needs to make a HELLSING AMV to this song now. XD
Natsuki Kruger What’s wrong with that?
You know.
I did not think this was real when I first heard of it.
Glad to be wrong.
My chair epically rocks back and forth to this song. My face can never be more emotionless. But my chair. My chair...
Yeah, ecstasy does that. lol
Stick with kush. Can't go wrong.
old youtube comments
If I went back in time and told my Phantom-obsessed 14 year old self that at 18 I'd be a metalhead she'd slap me in the face
got into metal with 12, now its 9 years later. and i reget nothing
oh girl... same thing!!!!! I hope your a mom (I got two by age 23)!!!!! cheers from Portland!
Now I am 14, Phantom obsessed and a Metalhead, which surprises are awaiting me in the future?
@@plasterordnance2501I'm 25 and plan on having exactly 0 children
This is the best Phantom of the Opera for all times before and after!
Maiden OP.
Draganko123
i dont think you can really compare the two, seeing as though they are completely different songs, this is a "cover" of the song from the musical The Phantom of the Opera, whereas maidens is an original song based on the story of The Phantom of the Opera.
Maiden :P
Guys don't get it wrong , iron maiden's version is not about the musical, but about the story itself
(Sorry for bad english , brazilian with sovietic image xD)
Neol The Hunter And Nightwish have performed a fragment of musical, blending it precisely with power metal, thus acquiring a symphonic power "Phantom". Then the "Phantom" was performed also by Floor Jansen (ex-After Forever) and Joachim Cans (HammerFall), this also sounds pretty cool.
This is great! But I have to say I prefer the Live version better. You can appreciate Tarja's vocals a lot more.
coringillingham Thank you, but no Thank you. I had a big lunch.
Damn that's how you know a video's old, when it still has that One True Media screen before it starts.
381 dislike what shame people don't know what is true music..
You know, I normally hate it when people redo classics in such a fashion. But this is pretty good.
It's faithful to the original in a lot of ways.
Live version is definitely better.
Paradite Agreed
Way better
Paradite You drunk?
SING, MY ANGEL OF MUSIC!!!
i love this song very much but only live in concert at Hartwel arena -the end of an era 2005 -there Tarja and Marco they are incredible and at the last tunes ...wow!!!! the voice of her just fantastic excellent ..nothing else
In sleep he sang to me
in dreams he came
That voice which calls to me
and speaks my name
And do I dream again
for now I find
The Phantom of the Opera is there

I hope one day Tarja plays Christine
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OH YEAHH BABYYY I LOVE THIS SHITTT
its not shit its THE shit xd
Just when I thought nobody could sing this better than Ramin Karimloo
I love how sometimes a song can be so good that scatters the limits of music genre preference with such ease.
One of the best songs of all time. Period.
tarja FOREVER
floor jansen forever
As good as the other singers are they are simply not the incredible magic that is Tarja.
398 people are crazy
Either that or they're just too stupid.
epic rock has the signers of opera that liked rock music!!! she is great!
I am just picturing Nightwish firing Erik and Christine, too. :P
the live version is much much better.
This is UNBELIEVABLE!!!! Put Randy Rhoads on guitar, and you might just have the perfect song!!!
fucking childhood (Y) :')
I was hoping this was an Iron Maiden cover.
Same here.
did you not read that it says "Nightwish"?
Chris Graham I think s/he meant a cover by Nightwish of Iron Maiden's "Phantom of the Opera."
A freakin tristar m8 XD
And you found something better :)
It's like the classical sound of opera and the awesome sound of metal just rammed into each other so hard they fused into a ball of sheer audio win.
love this song also I love the film version 2004 made by Andrew Loyd Webber
The musical is even better! Ramin totally owns the part! XD
lol Andrew didn't make the film, that cunt Joel Shumacher did
Demais ...... fantástico !
This is awesome.
Phijkchu_arbok METAL GOES BROADWAY!!!!!!! \m/
Very common "riff". What about...
Echoes - Pink Floyd
Love You To Death - Type O Negative
In Praise Of Bacchus - Type O Negative
Essa música.Essa versão ♥
Fátima Ferreira Maravilhosa ela né!!
This song really reminds me of Lord Dracula singing along with his beloved wife, Lisa, in Castlevania Symphony Of The Night.
Tarja is terrible here, but Marco is awesome as always. Marco always was, always will be, the best vocalist in Nightwish.
+Derek Julian lol
Marco is my spirit animal
Phantom of the Opera ist Made for Metal and Tarja
I'm starting to listen to Heavy metal. And I'm not Emo. But I'm glad this type of music exists now a days!
@@XXpassegeofsighs heavy metal never was an emo thing
Two of my most favorite things together in one. Nightwish and Phantom of the Opera. I die and go to heaven everytime I listen to this.
it's a metal cover with distorted guitars, kinda the point
Is it wrong that I actually like this version better than the original?
Nope. It only shows you have great taste.
marco from nightwish
with me along the strip of herbage strown. That divides the desert from the sown. Where names of slaves and sultans are forgotten . And peace to thee on thy golden throne... Thats the kinda magical place this gets me to.... amazing voice.
Instrumentally awesome, vocally it seems awkward and uncomfortable for both vocalists though...
Please help me. This music or part with thr descending organ part was in some videogame but i just cant remember where....
Oh god this man XD his voice is perfect for phantomsinging :P
OHHHHH I LOVE BOTH OF THEIR VOICES!!!!! They are like the male and female Death. I can Imagine the two of them coming for my soul when it's time for me to die. I can see them both singing this song while wearing their black cloaks and reaching out for my hand.

Lyrics:
I've been looking so long for you
Now you won't get away from my grasp
You've been living so long in hiding
In hiding behind that false mask
And you know and I know
That you ain't got long now to last
Your looks and your feelings
Are just the remains of your past
You're standing in the wings
There you wait for the curtain to fall
Knowing the terror and holding you have on us all
Yeah, I know that you're gonna scratch me, maim me and maul
You know I'm helpless from your mesmerising cat call
Keep your distance, walk away, don't take his bait
Don't you stray, don't fade away
Watch your step, he's out to get you, come what may
Don't you stray, from the narrow way
I'm running and hiding
In my dreams, you're always there
You're the phantom of the opera
You're the devil, you're just out to scare
You damaged my mind and my soul
It just floats through the air
Haunt me, you taunt me
You torture me back at your lair
@blackmist273 Yeah.. But i dont hate the new "New" singer i mean they took her in becouse she was good i dont got any probblems with her. I think she doing great:)
Guys, keep it down! This is an absolute masterpiece!! I hope that one day my grand children have the opportuity to listen to this song. It has so much energy and feelings in it! Just fantastic!! Thanks Tarja and Marco!!
marco has the most fitting voice for this song ,kinda dont want to say it but it fits alot better than toni's,altough toni kakko is my biggest idol
Combining one of my favorite bands with my favorite musical. I love it.
Geez, every pair of singers gives this song a different emotion, and the instruments give them different powers...I can never settle for one version of this song!
I love this version and the original. Both are amazing in different ways, and the man's voice on this version gives a new view to the Phantom. I actually like it.
wow, i miss this one, used to listen to it like breathing air
I just walked past a few little kids listening to this. Only five metres later I realized they'd been talking to me...music distracts my mind..
Nice upgrade
I know that feeling...In my choir I'm the deepest of the altos and most of the times I sound like a man...
Skill isn't really an opinion, because if you say someone who can't cut a log with an axe, is more skilled than a lumber jack, you are plain wrong... it has nothing to do with opinion, its fact. The male singer IS a screamo singer, and you saying he sounds bad, is opinion, because you just don't like screamo. Please refrain from correcting others, when they are correct, thank you.
Man... My friend was telling me how much he liked this song. Then I showed him Planet Hell and The Poet and the Pandelum and he said he likes Phantom of the Opera better still. So I was thinking GEE if its better than Planet Hell and Poet and the Pandelum, it MUST be REALLY good!
So tonight for the first time, this song plays in my ears and I am just blown away! The combination of heavy metal electric guitar and church organ (my two favorite instruments) is the COOLEST thing I have ever heard!
"To be true, almost every singer does it, but they edit it so you don't hear the breath)," WRONG! Hardly anyone does this, and no, it's not "edited out". I am a trained choir singer and I have been working on live productions at my church for years. Most singers don't breath into the mic like that while singing. Your statement just goes to show how little you know about music and singing.
@BinkyBoysGirl It's always in the realm of possibility, but I doubt it. Unfortunately for her, and I do mean this, I don't like to see people fail, she has no real talent. She can't sing, write interesting lyrics, or make anything really interesting. I'd love for her to prove me wrong and release something I can get into, but for now I don't foresee it happening. Considering she was so bashed for her very first single, she's not getting very far in the future.
It's a great thing that nightwish continues to do good music, with or without Tarja, and don't get me wrong - I like Tarja, but it's still nightwish without her, and her things are good as well. I hope they will release something new soon :-). Until then, you can try listening to:
Capricia - Recline in the Fire or
Capricia - Melodic Scream
Might like it too ;-)
I'm a Phantom buff. Loved it since seeing the silent version my parents raised me on as a kid. I then loved the musical. You know what? Even as a hardcore Phantom buff, I can appreciate this rendition. Yeah, the tempo, melody, and Phantom's voice is off; but it makes for a gritty, metal version of the song, that is cool in it's own way.
It's a great song, great female vocalist, but that guy.... He's just terrible....
You do realize I have no clue who she is. Also having a range of 3 octaves doesn't mean squat if you don't know anything about breath management. And to whoever it was that claimed it was romantic to breath into the mic... uh, breathing heavily like that is not romantic.
It's good but my heart is still with Sarah Brightman.
I don't agree the original song in not original. On the contrary, in it's time (90's) it caused a lot of impact and Andrew Lloyd Webber is an amazing composer, just as the original singer Sarah Brightman is also a legendary singer in hew own genre.
Marco Hietala is a man with a strong , beautiful voice! A Metal Master. A man who can sing like an angel in a sweet melody & like the devil in a heavy song! I would like some time to meet him , he is my MetalGod!
its sounds really good!!!!
it fits really good when JK chases U Know
on Running Man
Oh no. I'm a very big fan of the musical and then finally found this song. But I'm shocked. I really like nightwish, but this song... for me it does NOT fit to the characters. The whole song is way too brutal! Also the voice of the phantom. He's not that strong and harsh! He wants always to seduce Christine somehow and NOT scare her :((( ok, it's my own opinion, well I recommend to you listening to the original, it's great ;)
For this song, yes, I prefer cleaner vocals, mainly because of the context of the song. There are other parts of the musical in which the Phantom is angry and screaming, but in this part he's trying to seduce the woman, so screaming angrily doesn't make sense. From ofther songs I've heard by Nightwish, recommended by other RUclips users, the singer actually could have done it.
Regrettably, I don't know who Roy Khan is.
I discovered this song listening to Nightwish's version. When I understood, it was composed by someone else, I listened to the original and just found it had no originality.
It's juste one of those songs from the musicals.
Marco is perhaps a "screamo". But, it's precisely the contrast between his voice and Tarja's voice which gives this song all its interest.
Nightwish version is just unique. If you don't like metal sonorities, don't listen...
The Breathing is meant to be ornamental as a means of conveying passion. Musically the artist accomplish what they were trying to convey. You must understand that every style of music is an expression of a culture or subculture. Does "O Nata Lux" have to sound like "Jambo Rafiki" and "Kalinka" like "Lady Sweet and Kind" to be considered musically sound? "Phantom Of The Opera" by Nightwish conforms to its own musical genre and does not have to sound like a choral piece.
There are a few weak songs on it (Slow, Love, Slow and Arabesque are not exactly Tuomas-quality songs) but also some masterpieces that rival and even best the old works (I Want My Tears Back, whoa!)
While it is always sad to see a strong cooperation of artists break up, like recently with Symfonia, the reality is that they will not work together again. Which is quite okay, as both Nightwish and Tarja are doing well.
@bubbles1x The book was first published as a serial from 1909-1910. Leroux can scarcely have published the book in the early 1990s, given that he died in the 1920s, and Webber couldn't write a musical in 1986 based on a book published in the 1990s. First it was a book (1909-1910), then film (first in 1916, first surviving film is from 1925), then musical (first musical was written in 1972, Webber's was in 1986), then films based on the Webber musical (as far as I know 2004 is the only one).
@ericvids1122
No, I don't. The BOOK was written in the early 1990s, but it was done as a MOVIE (meaning no songs) in 1924. Andrew Lloyd Webber wrote a musical about Le Fantome de L'Opera (my computer doesn't do accents, so bear with me) by Gaston Leroux in 1986, which is based on his book. It began in London's West End for the queen in 1986 and was redone on Broadway in 1988. Then it was redone in Las Vegas. And recently, it was put on by my school =)
@NewxBeginnings Because if enough talent soprano singer who originally way fits with metal music, is kicking out of and the new one is pop rock voicing homelady, its the biggest mistake ever made in the history of metal. Ive hardly ever been bitter about some crews` changing of some band but Nightbitch is the big exception. And its always double harder to finnish guy as I :D Greets to those 83 swedish who opened this video.
@Any people who hate the Phantom in this rendition.
Why all the hate for the "Phantom"? No, he may not sound quite like you may have imagined or heard before, but it's still nonetheless a good rendition of the original song, IMO. In the storyline, Christine heard the voice of the Phantom, and after hearing his beautiful, bewitching, unearthly voice, assumed he was an angel. Never was it said he needed to sound as you thought.
have to say, I do prefer Tarja because of her unique operatic voice. But this doesn't mean that Annette is a bad singer, or that I refuse to listen to her Nightwish sings. She's a hell of a lot better than most singers out there, and I fully respect her as the new frontwoman for Nightwish. And, anyway, if I want Tarja's voice I can just listen to her solo. It's not like there's any problems.
@JennyAndLenny Most bands want to keep their lead singer around. If she is a victim, that makes four band members liars. If she is the guilty party (at least primarily), that makes two people liars. Reductionism, people. I know Tarja was better looking than the rest of the band, but that doesn't mean we should throw scientific methodologies out the window. I like her new albums and Nightwish's new stuff, though Nightwish clearly had most of the talent.
The girl is amazing. She is perfect for what her role is supposed to be.
The guy on the other hand, IMHO isn't the right voice for the Phantom.
Don't get me wrong, his voice is perfect for other stuff, but it just doesn't work well here. It would be miles better if someone sang that part in a operatic/early metal style along the lines of Bruce Dickinson (of Iron Maiden) or Freddie Mercury (of Queen). That would not only fit the Phantom well, it also works with the rock/metal arrangement
@jessicamonique418
I am not sure what the point of your is comment is (not trying to be rude.)
The movie in 1925 was also based off the book "The Phantom of the Opera" by Gaston Leroux just like Maiden's song and Webber's play. Also the movie was a silent horror film, meaning there were no compositions for the movie, therefore there would have been nothing for Maiden to cover.
Regardless, Iron Maiden have said their song is an original piece based off the book, nothing else.
Word! I was thinking it's boring classical music all the years of my life. Since I heard THIS epic Version, I just can't get enough! (Anyone caught the reference? ^^)
I don't understand dislikes on music. That means someone who already didn't like it came to the video to bash it. I find beauty in all music, Rebecca Black not withstanding.
I may prefer the original, but you can't compare it to this... there is nothing to compare... that is operatic, this is metal... and they're both absolutely incredible...
I have loved the original for years. i also love this version. I think, however, that ultimately it comes down to taste.One thing for sure though, I believe that its a good thing for nightwish to of done this cover, thus opening a doorway to Andrew Lloyd Webber to a different demographic of people who may of otherwise not known of him and his work.
3:12 This part could have been way better if they used the orchestral part from the original... where's the big build up to that final note?? Tarja's squeal thing proved she could do it!! :( I'm a huge Nightwish fan but this is one cover that could have been loads better if it were more faithful with the outro.
alright people stop talking about vocal range. it all counts on the palate being lifted and making sure that you breath right. otherwise your voice turns to crap. believe me im in choir and Im also im soprano 1 so that requires me to sing really high. and yes this singer is fucking amazing, thats why i love this band. now stop with the arguing and just listen to the music
@evilpsychobunyofdoom
Actually, no. It's a musical. It was written in 1986 by Andrew Lloyd Webber to feature his ex-wife, Sarah Brightman (Christine). In 2004, it was redone by Joel Schumacher and featured Gerard Butler as the Phantom and Emmy Rossum as Christine Daaé. Either way, it's always a musical. Never a movie or show.
At first, I wasn't convinced by Marco's version of the Phantom because it was so different from what I had heard before. But it grew on me, and now this is really my favorite version. It's even better live. I like Marco's Phantom because he just sounds so dark and evil. The Phantom isn't supposed to be NICE.
@RameshChotanagour That's a matter of opinion. I personally think that Tarja was their voice and their recognition value, but Tuomas is their brain, their core, their heart and also their soul. And Dark Passion Play has got all these things, but just a different voice. In my opinion the good ones are great, too.
My opinion is that...well...maybe it sounds bitchy but I think that they shouldn't have the name Nightwish anymore. They were Nightwish with Tarja in it. Since Anette is in it, it's totally different and it sucks. So my opinion is that they should've shanged the name when Tarja was gone. I WANT TARJA BACK!!!
@xEscapeTheHatex i agree the band i am part of have done some rocky stuff (by that i do mean rock not rocky the film) there is no way you can continue without a stop you just wreck you voice , i have to stop sometimes when drumming with rock its just as bad except its your arms not your voice that gets wrecked.
