Your gateway to endless inspiration
okay girlies i just listened to the WHOLE movie album of phantom and oh god...
everything i said in my other post about ponr still stands for pretty much the rest of the music lol. gerard cant do vibrato and it physically hurts when i hear where they cut his notes short because he cant hold out a note for that long😭
also i feel like everything is just... meh. they toned down the music so much and yes i understand that you have to do that with most stage shows turned movies because with theatre you have to be big and bright for the back audience and you can't be that big for most movies, but with phantom... i feel like you need lots of energy
phantom of the opera is such an emotional show that needs lots of big actors to play these roles and the music is also super big (sorry for saying big so much lol) and swelling because thats what fits with this kind of story. when they tone down the music in the movie it just made everything sound more muddy and half-assed🤷♀️
