She’s alright,but I feel Sarah Brightman will always be THE Christine.If you catch Sarah’s performance with Michael at the 50th Birthday tribute to ALW at Albert Royal Hall in 1998, she was at her peak and her singing/ performance gave me goosebumps,was amazing.
@@a7xguitar666 Yes which is weird because in earlier interviews he said that Sarah Brightman (HIS EX WIFE) was the inspiration on how he felt Christine was like. I feel like he just said that about Sierra because she was popular and was one of the big actresses that sold out almost all of her shows.
I'd pay big money to see these two play Christine and Raoul in Phantom. I don't care that Michael is 50 and Sierra is 30. They're absolutely perfect together
I think Sierra is the most beautiful girl to have played Christine, but more than that and her fantastic voice, I love what she brought to the role. She plays a spirited and dynamic Christine and her acting really draws you in. I've seen some Christine float through their performances as if they'd taken too much Ambien and others that really just roll with a two dimensional version of the character that doesn't really make you feel anything. Sierra is like a unicorn - she's got the voice, the looks and the acting chops. Very rare.
Clearly you haven’t see much Christine’s. There’s over 150+ Christine’s WITH videos/audios. Take a look at Monika Sommerova she’s very good at the role also
Here we have two great singers doing an amazing rendition of "All I Ask of You." Not only does Michael Ball have an amazing voice, he really gets into the lyrics. I love the way he looks at her when she is singing and smiles at her. He makes you believe he is really in love with her. Bravo, Michael Ball. You are a master performer.
Every time I listen to this beautiful duet it is the acting and nuance and gesture that touches me. I have heard many stars sing this beautiful song without the chemistry and tenderness and perfection of Sierra and Michael and inconsequential 20 year age difference
She was THE BEST Christine. As Ramin was THE BEST phantom hands down. And i'm a singer myself saying this. And have seen Phantom NUMEROUS times with many different musicians performing these two roles. There was just something extra special between Ramin and Sierra.
I don’t know how many times her voice has melted my heart over the years, but I’m happy to turn in to a giant puddle of mush, over and over. Sierra’s voice is pure perfection!
The thing Michael Ball knows how hard the musical theatre is to get into so he always supports new up and coming new people coming into the profession he really liked singing with her❤️❤️
This is the first time I heard this song where I can understand every word that has been sung. Sarah Brightman I never could understand anything she’s saying she just screamed.
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 love me every 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 Let me be your shelter Let me be your light You're safe, no one will find you Your fears are far behind you All I want is freedom A world with no more night And you, always beside me To hold me and to hide me Then say you'll share with me One love, one lifetime Let me lead you from your solitude Say you need me with you here beside you Anywhere you go, let me go too Christine, that's all I ask of you Say you'll share with me One love, one lifetime Say the word and I will follow you Share each day with me each night, each morning Say you love me, you know I do Love me, that's all I ask of you Anywhere you go, let me go too Love me, that's all I ask of you
Michaels voice so warm and fruity and Sierras glass shattering clarity proves that you do not need to die to get to Heaven. Sir Andrew,s prediction of Sierra's mega stardom is a racing certainty. I hope she will linger on our sceptered Isle but Sierra needs to travel and conquer the world soon. xxxxxxxxxx
Robbie Hagberg was on the way here I attended the lights on my way home now and I will you please phone up and see what I have to do after work now and can do it as a good night too as long time ago I understand us for a second
I stumbled on this recently and this version is beautiful. I love it when people that duet actually get into the role of the character. It adds so much to the performance.
just come back from seeing him in London in an intimate small club. sings this song as beautifully as he did 30 years ago . The most magnificent harmonious baritone voice anybody could possess and without doubt without equal in his portrayal of Javertl
I had the privilege to see her last Sunday and get her autograph. She is just an amazing actress, vocalist, and just an all-around positive person. But I have to say, the one thing that made me certain that it was her coming from the stage door, is her beautiful red hair. I saw it and said, "Yep, that's Ariel!" We can't forget who she was before Christine, because she might not be Christine if she didn't impress Andrew as Ariel. Truly an amazing and beautiful person and singer. And to be TRULY both of those, is very hard to come by now. I wish her all my luck and success for her future, no matter how far she is.
+Jake Broer Congratulations! She is the only star in my 71 years of living that I would like to have a autograph from. And I think she knows what it means to people to meet her.
This is by far the best rendition of All I Ask of You that I've heard. You can feel that Raoul really loves Christine the way Michael Ball sang it. Sierra is the best Christine and I love love love her with Ramin as Phantom. If only Michael Ball was cast as Raoul man, the 25th would have been perfect!
My 2 faves!!! *sigh*❤❤❤ Though I watched Sierra as Ariel, I wish I’d seen her as Christine… and I had the privilege to track her down last year when she ran for the NY City Marathon as I volunteered! Love this duet, so heavenly and romantic! 🥰
I have seen “:Phantom:of……”:both in USA and west end live and on TV, BUT BY FAR Sierra is the best. She hits the notes perfectly. Glad U tube picks it up as I watch many times - still brings tears for the perfect duet
Fact: at sixty four years old I've never seen Phantom of the Opera, however, I've Loved Loved this song for decades. 'DJ Loop' and these two beauties are keeping me company during my graveyard shift. ✨🙏🧑🦳 Be kind all and please don't raise bullies, 💖💜...
What beautiful a beautiful Love Song sung by two great Artistswith perfectly balanced voices. The Original Songwriter would be very proud of these two great singers rendition of his Song “All I Ask of You”.
The story they portrayed is just pure perfection! So professional but also makes you wish it was all true. Their emotions to the song and character is very very heartfelt.
I've loved Sierra for a while now. How could one not? This is the first time I've heard Ball sing and he is great. Thanks for the post. Anything Sierra is good to find.
What I have noticed with the male rendition of this duet is that they approach the vocals differently which I like so much. They both sounded awesome. Bravo..
Until now Im still amazed and love watching this video.. this version is same as the version from the cassette tape that i’ve listened 30 years ago.. Nostalgic and so much good memories.. ❤️😊
Every song out of the Phantom was beautiful, powerful, whimsical (Masquerade). I’m partial to Sarah Brightman, but Sierra could stand in any day and not miss a beat. Just marvelous

Sierra really is the best Christine and every time I’ve seen phantom no one compares to her & Ramin

Didnt andrew lloyd webber cite sierra as his ultimate ideal christine?
And Hadley!

she’s good but i don’t like how she sings with an irish accent
I'd pay big money to see these two play Christine and Raoul in Phantom. I don't care that Michael is 50 and Sierra is 30. They're absolutely perfect together
Apparently he was the 2nd Raoul in POTO???
That is lovely I love Michael Ball and Sierra is wonderful
She played in the play in 2020 😌
I’d pay big money to see these pair together too absolutely fantastic performances
Sierra Boggess is an amazing talent. My favorite Christine, was lucky to have seen her in Phantom.
There's a timbre to Michael's voice which sends shivers down my spine. Glorious.
Thank

Thank you for that wonderful perspective.

you would think he actually loved her!
@@johnthompson7836 To be fair, it would be harder to act like you're not in love with Sierra Boggess
It is wonderful
@@CoversByGuys Really get that mate.
ABSOLUTELY 💯 BEAUTIFUL ❤️❤️❤️❤️!!!!

Please go listen to Rebecca Caine
My face becomes the same smile as Michael's when Sierra starts singing
Oh for goodness sake, that's about as close to perfection as you'd find anywhere. Just wonderful.
She's my favorite Christine.
The way he looks at Christine really seems like they fell in love deeply❤
Superb. I never tire of hearing Michael Ball, and Sierra Boggess' rich voice is so beautiful.
I don’t know how many times her voice has melted my heart over the years, but I’m happy to turn in to a giant puddle of mush, over and over. Sierra’s voice is pure perfection!
To sing and act with love is a real talent for both. Just a marvelous duet.
I must be going nutty because everytime Sierra begins singing I start crying! That has to be the first sign of a singing genius!
The thing Michael Ball knows how hard the musical theatre is to get into so he always supports new up and coming new people coming into the profession he really liked singing with her❤️❤️
I'd pay ridiculous money to see Sierra boggess,ramin karemaloo and Michael ball in London production.. absolutely,will be worth the money.
They are so adorable together you can see the friendship and the admiration they have for each other 🥺🥺🥺
That guy can still sing, damnit. It is known.
The music of the Angels. It was a privilege to see and hear Michael and Sierra
Best version Ive heard. Their voices are perfect!
It’s a beautiful version. The lady nailed it. However, as Raul, I prefer Patrick Wilson who sang it very beautifully
This is the first time I heard this song where I can understand every word that has been sung. Sarah Brightman I never could understand anything she’s saying she just screamed.
Andrews music always brings the greatest singers to bear. Thanks folks.
Sierra has an extremely beautiful voice.
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 love me every 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
Let me be your shelter
Let me be your light
You're safe, no one will find you
Your fears are far behind you
All I want is freedom
A world with no more night
And you, always beside me
To hold me and to hide me
Then say you'll share with me
One love, one lifetime
Let me lead you from your solitude
Say you need me with you here beside you
Anywhere you go, let me go too
Christine, that's all I ask of you
Say you'll share with me
One love, one lifetime
Say the word and I will follow you
Share each day with me each night, each morning
Say you love me, you know I do
Love me, that's all I ask of you
Anywhere you go, let me go too
Love me, that's all I ask of you
That was one of the best performances l have ever witnessed.

Bene detto, Paolo!
Beautiful in every way. Thank you.
These two great performers are commensurate vocalists! What talent!! 🥰👍

I just recently found Michael, and I fell in love! He is just marvelous and she’s very much his equal. What a superb duet!
Thanks for the love and support💙
Passion , pleasure , perfect.
makes me well up with so many emotions.
wish we lived in a gentle world with kind people
No doubt!!!
Even after all these years this is still the best rendition of this song. Their connection was magical.
Phantom of the opera
Sierra is Gorgeous
An amazing duet!!
She's just perfect. She's "Andrew's favorite Christine".
This is by far the best rendition of All I Ask of You that I've heard. You can feel that Raoul really loves Christine the way Michael Ball sang it.

What a performer you are, Michael. Love you.
So beautiful! This brought TEARS to my eyes!
Piper
A very beautiful song always brings a smile to my face and a tear to my eyes
Oh the feels. Hits me every-time I watch this video. Amazing.
This beautiful song sung by two of my Favorite Opera Singers of all times always makes my day. Danke Christine.
My 2 faves!!! *sigh*❤❤❤ Though I watched Sierra as Ariel, I wish I’d seen her as Christine… and I had the privilege to track her down last year when she ran for the NY City Marathon as I volunteered! Love this duet, so heavenly and romantic! 🥰

Michael ball always has a beautiful voice love his version of this and a thousand years
Just phenomenal, both of them! This song exists to showcase the possibilities of the human singing voice.
That is without doubt the best ever rendition I’ve heard. It’s on a tv show and it was far more superior than on stage. Brilliant.
This brought me to tears. 🥲 3 great talents on the same stage, thank you for all the joy you’ve given us. 🙏🏼
Two wonderful voices with a wonderful orchestra accompaniment! Bravo🎺🎻🎷🎸👋👋
Fact: at sixty four years old I've never seen Phantom of the Opera, however, I've Loved Loved this song for decades. 'DJ Loop' and these two beauties are keeping me company during my graveyard shift. ✨🙏🧑🦳

How they sing and act with my very best favorite love song..Both of you were Great..I love this song
What beautiful a beautiful Love Song sung by two great Artistswith perfectly balanced voices. The Original Songwriter would be very proud of these two great singers rendition of his Song “All I Ask of You”.

Gorgeous. What incredible voices.
Great job Andrew lloyd webber really puts his heart an sole into every thing geneios really special
What I have noticed with the male rendition of this duet is that they approach the vocals differently which I like so much. They both sounded awesome. Bravo..
She really is the best Christian she nails the innocent and naivety that the role needs.
Both great voices but hers is on another level. Best Christine ever?
I simply love Sierra and her fantastic voice. Whish her all the best in her future.
Beautiful lovely shaki dance with the music, voices, etc...thank u fr the music awesome hx

That is absolutely wonderful
What can I say it is so brilliant.
Powerful. All powerful and correct.
My favorite couple singing this song. So much passion in Michael Ball's performance.
Michael sings from his heart
Sierra Boggess has spectacular voice and face like a barbie.
That made me cry loved that very much
An exciting blend of two magnificent voices...love how my body delightly sways to the amazing beat of his beautiful "Phantom of the Opera" duet.
Sierra is one of the greatest voices
i just saw the names michael ball and sierra boggess together in a duet and I started getting palpitations
She has such a perfect voice.
Michael is one of the only singers that can sing this song without overdoing it. Sierra is one of the best Christine’s ever. They sing well together.
Micheal Ball such a pro,, Andrew was in tears at the end.
I know this video is old but nothing in this performance is fake. I love it!
This may have been almost 10 years ago but WOW WOW WOW! AMAZING SOUND FROM TWO AMAZING TALENTS! BRAVO/BRAVA!
Wowsie. Amazing voices. I love her voice.
Gorgeous just gorgeous
And she is one beautiful woman as well as being mega talented
Dear Michael. You are perfection!!!!!
I’m always looking for RUclips duets…., I think they’re such a great experience when we’re up late seeking new music.
Thankyou for your God given talents for the world to enjoy. Keep on paying the luv forward ❤️🦋
I never get enough of these two, they are so sweet together
Absolutely gorgeous!!
Beautiful
Absolutely beautiful- I'm a wreck sobbing my eyes out!!!
Until now Im still amazed and love watching this video.. this version is same as the version from the cassette tape that i’ve listened 30 years ago.. Nostalgic and so much good memories.. ❤️😊
Wow, what a surprise. Excellent performance.
Every song out of the Phantom was beautiful, powerful, whimsical (Masquerade). I’m partial to Sarah Brightman, but Sierra could stand in any day and not miss a beat. Just marvelous
When I see Sarah Brigjtman I am reminded of her indescretion in what she said of her ex husband.
Not good
Sierra is jist beautiful
Beautiful love song. Beautifully performed. I have seen Phantom twice & this is my favorite song.
Wow I love this song!!!!!
