For the final show in Hamburg, the Phantom (Ian Jon Bourg) and Christine (Colby Thomas) sang a wonderful duet of ‘Music of the Night’ and ‘Think of Me’ combined. It’s quite lovely, and inspired a bunch of headcanons about this being their feelings after the events of Phantom had ended.

Is the Phantom of the Opera here inside your mind with us right now?

Will Wood music is so good it’s like. I’m at a jazz show. I’m at a rock concert. I’m disassociating. I’m hyper aware of how my body looks. I hate modern society. Can’t we go back to the 50s? Wait the 50s sucked too. I’m a vampire. I’m a werewolf. I’m incapable of love. I have so much love to give. What’s my gender anyway? I am at a skeleton swing party in an animated film.

Things I quote regularly from Gaston Leroux's Phantom of the Opera:

• "Horror, horror, horror!"

• "There was a poor Raoul who overheard you"

• "How nice of you to save me the exertion at my age!"

• "I am jealous! I am jealous! I am jealous!"

• (Unhappy man! Do you want to be killed?) "Perhaps" - said with dispair

• "You don't love me! You don't love me! You don't love me!"

• "you great booby"

• "I'm kind of a Don Juan, you know!"

• "You're looking at me because I am all wet? Oh, my dear, it's raining cats and dogs outside!"

• "Baby!" (the daroga talking to Raoul) but specifically how the audiobook narrator says it

THE LAST WARNING (1928) dir. Paul Leni

[hop3isaprison]

Hello hello hello!

Today is a double feature, as these songs are somewhat one, but can be separated by lyrical topic?

Give it up for I Remember | Die Erinnerung kehrt zurück, and Stranger Than you Dreamt it | Schlimmer als ein Alptraum!

Sadly, there is no audio version for this that I could find. So here is my unfiltered rambling – I hope you enjoy!

Erik calls Christine a hussy. A bit harsh when compared with the English Lyrics. And again a change that was added when the show opened in Hamburg.

Also this is the first instance of a Frankenword (or a Kompositum in German) with the word Sehnsuchtskrank. The best translation I could find was the meaning of the two combined words Sehnsucht (longing/yearning) and krank (sick).

So far the translation were pretty easy to do, although the order of the words can be a bit complicated. Do I translate it word for word, or do I put the translation into a sentence that sounds like English?

I guess it depends on the mood of the day

Thanks for reading! <3
