***SPOILERS IN THESE MESSAGES***

Yes, you have to buy it first. If you "pre-order" the CD and then go through the checkout process, you will get a "digital locker." Look carefully in the upper-right-hand corner. Open the "locker" and the download will be in there. It's a streaming audio file of the entire CD. I'm listening to it right now. One question has been answered: They did NOT hire Gerard Butler because of his singing--it is adequate at best and clearly assisted GREATLY with studio magic. IMHO, a real disappointment.

Just got through listening to "Prima Donna" which sounds gorgeous. This is a number where Minnie Driver's singing must be dubbed.

Can't decide what I think about "All I Ask Of You." Patrick seems to hold back vocally. Sometimes it sounds nice and seductive, slight and breathy at other times. Emily sounds good.

ok i ordered it and im listening to it. here's my dielema. I wanted to have this item the day it came out. I was planning to go to the store at midnight monday night etc. Will amazon ship this so it arrives on the day of release or not ship untill the day of release?

Emmy sounds nice. Strangely breathy sometimes. Wow I love way Patrick does, "Can it be, can it be Christine." She sounds amateur sometimes and unsure but that may be fine. Her adlib at the end of THINK OF ME is completely original and not a copy of Sarah Brightman's.

It may just take some getting used to, but Emmy is not strong at all. It sounds like she is straining to hit those high notes. Oh God. I am getting scared, people. Everyone sounds airy and like they are singing at a Karaoke bar. Oh God.

Bronx, I think that amazon ships it on the day of release. I think we will receive it one or two days later.

It sounds closer to the original song that was played on the radio before the show was completed. Gerard, NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

[bronxboundexpress]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 6:53pm

Oh well two copies won't hurt anything. I'll give it to someone.

Yes, I am a little worried about these voices but the orchestra is beautiful and awsome.

[spiderdj82]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 6:54pm

Yes, the Orchestra is KICK ASS!!!!!! Love the electric guitar. Sweet Jesus. I say, just kick the voices off and let's just have the music.

[spiderdj82]

gerard sounds like Alan Cummings doing the Emcee, doing the Phantom. Do you agree?

[bronxboundexpress]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 6:56pm

Yeah, the title song sounds like the orignal single that Sarah Brightman did with Steve Harley(or was it Cliff Richard?) That is an awsome music video and I hope the movie is the same way.

Their voices don't blend well at the end of All I Ask of You.

SH*T!! Music of the Night just came on! Gerald, you suck kind of!

Posted: 10/29/04 at 6:57pm

SH*T!!!! He's awful!!!

[spiderdj82]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 6:58pm

He's not "awful" just doesn't sound that great. Moments of his singing is pretty good. I am just saying, is he the best? In fact, was Emmy the best? Jeez.

[bronxboundexpress]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:00pm

Yeah he sounds good when he's not loud.

Ok I just heard his loud "long to BEEEE!!!!" That was unfortunate sounding.

But now he sounds good again that he's quite.

hmmm

Could this be why his song "No one would listen" was cut and made into the Minnie Driver song?

Prima Donna sounds great.

[bronxboundexpress]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:02pm

Prima Donna just came on for me. What's with CArolotta's voice?!?!?!?!

[spiderdj82]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:03pm

None of these voices are strong (except for the dubbed Carlotta). Makes me upset.

[bronxboundexpress]

Posted: 10/29/04 at 7:06pm

I do have to say I like the way Emmy is not singing it "opera" like as much as Sarah Brightman. It sounds much more like a normal musical thetare voice. I keep reminding people that this is not an opera score and the only person who should sing operatically is Carolotta and Christine sometimes.
