You guys need to listen to the Canadian Cast Original Recording with Colm Wilkins and Rebecca Cain...Russebby said:Just glad Michael Crawford isn't part of it. It will break my heart to see someone other than Sarah Brightman in the role of Christine. But after what Crawford did to Jim Steinman's Dance of the Vampires, the last person I want to hear anything from any time soon is Crawford.

I have been ga-ga for Brightman for years, so forgive me for being a little skeptical about your glowing endorsement of Ms. Cain. However, I will see if I can pick up a CD or something from the Web to hear for myself--thanx for the 411.RevKidd said:You guys need to listen to the Canadian Cast Original Recording with Colm Wilkins and Rebecca Cain...
Rebecca Cain sings circles around Brightman. I think SB, is a great singer, but IMO, their is something about her tone that sometimes sounds to nasaly... There are some songs in which she is absolutely fab.. But then some of the more pop stuff I don't care for too much...
I just hope that these people can sing in this up and coming movie...
My favorite les mis recording is the synphonic recording as well. I think all of the singers have great voices!Russebby said:I have been ga-ga for Brightman for years, so forgive me for being a little skeptical about your glowing endorsement of Ms. Cain.

I like Colm Wilkins as well. I do prefer hearing Gary Morris doing Jean Valjean--ever hear the complete symphonic recording of Les Miz? One of the best recordings of anything of all time. Cast members from around the world--New York, Los Angeles, London, Sydney, Tokyo--are spliced cleverly together to create a seamless 3-CD set that is spellbinding. The highlight of it for me is hearing the role of Eponine sing by a Japanese singer who IRL couldn't speak a word of English! A must-have for any musical-phile.
But IMHO, the best Phantom I've ever heard is Robert Guillaume (yes, THAT Robert Guillaume, the cat that played Benson and did the babboon's voice on The Lion King). He starred as the Phantom shortly after Crawford left the Broadway show. During his stay on Broadway, Guillaume performed a rendition of THE MUSIC OF THE NIGHT for some Motown special, I think in '92 or something like that.
