I don't think that there is a 'superior' Christine. I love this version, I love Sierra's version and I love Emmy's version. Obviously, this is the original so we have Sarah to thank for originating such a beautiful musical. Christine is such a vocally demanding role and so I think anyone who takes on the role deserves some appreciation!!!!

Christine grew up thinking that the Phantom is her fabled Angel of Music. It took her finally figuring out the terrifying identity of her Angel of Music, experiencing trauma and PTSD, rage quitting the Phantom right after All I Ask of You, her finally telling her friends and Raoul of the abuse she endured to get her seraphic voice, and many other things......to realize that Christine herself is the Angel of Music all along.

The part was written specifically *for* her. Her husband, the creator of this musical, had *HER* in mind for this role. She is the original. And considering the "talent" of these days, she's better than all the rest. I'd challenge any of todays divas to match her range and purity of sound. You need to truly know musical talent to know that Christine was a force to be reckoned with, in both her prime, and even now.

Sometimes this tune gets stuck in my head. For me this is nothing unusual. I have all sorts of music bouncing around, from Gustav Mahler to significant one-shot greats from the 60s. Without deliberation, my mind will shift from Beethoven to some modern-day pop performer. One minute I'll be listening to Katy Perry and the next moment I'll be listening to Brahms' first piano concerto. I'm usually totally unaware of the shift. It's weird. I don't want to enter into who was the best Christine debate or who is a better singer. I'll leave that up to your individual judgment. Sometimes, when I hear this song I hear Brightman -- other times I can hear Rossum. If I listened more to other singers, I'm sure they'd get a place in my unconscious. When I listen to Boggess, I think, wow, that's really supreme, but I'd have to listen to her more often for her voice to enter my unconscious. I'm a big Sarah Brightman fan but find no need to defend her. Other artists have given this song a real range and I'm glad of it.

Sarah Brightman and Michael Crawford were magnificent as Christine and the Phantom. It was when she kissed his hideous face and told him if you were not so Angry I could have loved you (with that kiss), that I understood unconditional love. In his song recounting that he had a face that only his mother could love (Masquerade), I was transfixed. This play will go down on history for me as the greatest love story ever told.🥰. This is coming from someone who hasn’t had a relationship in over 10 years. I have embraced Solitude happily. But I could go to this play again and again.🥰. I do believe in human kindness, when it appears. Phantom of the Opera will always get a huge BRAVO from me.

They were both spectacular I will see it again when possible, but doubt anyone can match these two wonderful performers. Love Emmy Rossum and Gerrard Butler too, but no comparison to S.B. and M. C. The other stage version A 25 yr. Celebration at Crystal Palace was also amazing, ( televised version ) but still not as amazing as Crawford and Brightman. ....... Pauline Gribben.

@lettersfromkay I acknowledge your point. But I believe that without Brightman this song would sound quite different. It was written for her and her voice exactly, every tremor and dynamic was to suit her voice so naturally she would be the one perfect for it. Unlike other people who sing this, she had a special connection to the song beyond the fictional character itself, so when she sang it she didn't just embody Christine, she WAS Christine. And she was Weber's Christine, and our Christine.

There would have been no Christine role for Sierra to sing had it not been for Sarah. ALW was inspired to write POTO for Sarah. Not Sierra, or Sandra, or Celinde or anyone else. It was written for Sarah. The end.

This is so amazing, I mean it. Sarah Brightman is perfect for this song. However I don't like the statement which defines that this version prevail against Emmy Rossum's version. I think we cannot compare. Sarah is undeniably devoted to opera genre and she's been doing this for ages. However, Emmy was only 18 when she sang this and we can tell that it was her first time. But within this circumstance, she was still impressing. So I think both of them are great:)
