NIGHTWISH teilen einen Liveclip der epischen `The Phantom Of The Opera´ Performance von Floor Jansen und Henk Poort auf einer Bühne vereint im Ziggo Dome, Amsterdam, die auch für die Sängerin etwas ganz Besonderes darstellt, wie sie erklärt:

„It’s been 17 years since Nightwish last performed this iconic song and I couldn’t be more excited to share it with all of you. It all started when Henk, who performed as the phantom in the Dutch version of the production, and I met on Beste Zangers in 2019., He said he’d only perform the song with me if we could do it with Nightwish, and both Nightwish and me said yes! It was a dream come true to make it happen and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to perform with Henk at a sold-out Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam. Thank you to everyone who made this possible and to all the fans who have supported us along the way. Get ready for an epic performance!“

Lyrics:

In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came

That voice which calls to me and speaks my name

And do I dream again? For now I find

The Phantom of the Opera is there

Inside my mind

 

Sing once again with me, our strange duet

My power over you grows stronger yet

And though you turn from me to glance behind

The Phantom of the Opera is there

Inside your mind

 

Those who have seen your face

Draw back in fear

I am the mask you wear

(It’s me they hear…)

 

voice

In one combined

The Phantom of the Opera is there

Inside my (your) mind (beware, the Phantom of the Opera)

 

In all your fantasies, you always knew

That man and mystery

(Were both in you)

 

And in this labyrinth, where night is blind

The Phantom of the Opera is here (there)

Inside my (your) mind

 

Sing, my Angel of Music! (He’s there, the Phantom of the Opera)

Sing for me

 

Sing my angel, sing

 

Sing for me
