Masquerade _ Why So Silent_ (Live at the Royal Albert Hall) - Andrew Lloyd Webber |
| [00:04.82] |
Masquerade! Paper faces paradeon |
| [00:08.44] |
|
| [00:09.43] |
Masquerade! Hide your face so the world will never find you |
| [00:14.49] |
|
| [00:16.18] |
Masquerade! Every face a different shade |
| [00:19.88] |
|
| [00:20.88] |
Masquerade! Look around, there's another mask behind you |
| [00:25.94] |
|
| [00:26.74] |
Flash of mauve, splash of puce |
| [00:28.24] |
Fool and king, ghoul and goose |
| [00:29.74] |
Green and black, queen and priest |
| [00:31.30] |
Trace of rouge, face of beast, faces |
| [00:34.98] |
Take your turn, take a ride |
| [00:35.91] |
|
| [00:36.60] |
On the merry-go-round in an inhuman race |
| [00:40.65] |
Eye of gold, true is false |
| [00:41.90] |
Who is who? |
| [00:42.71] |
Curl of lip, swirl of gown |
| [00:44.21] |
Ace of hearts, face of clown, faces |
| [00:46.52] |
|
| [00:47.64] |
Drink it in, drink it up till you've drowned |
| [00:50.39] |
In the light, in the sound but who can name the face? |
| [00:53.76] |
Masquerade! Grinning yellows, spinning reds |
| [00:57.25] |
|
| [00:58.13] |
Masquerade! Take your fill, let the spectacle astound you |
| [01:03.57] |
|
| [01:05.00] |
Masquerade! Burning glances, turning heads |
| [01:08.55] |
|
| [01:09.86] |
Masquerade! Stop and stare at the sea of smiles around you |
| [01:14.85] |
|
| [01:16.54] |
Masquerade! Seething shadows breathing lies |
| [01:20.23] |
|
| [01:21.10] |
Masquerade! You can fool any friend who ever knew you |
| [01:25.90] |
|
| [01:26.90] |
Masquerade! Leering satyrs, peering eyes |
| [01:31.95] |
|
| [01:32.52] |
Masquerade! Run and hide, but a face will still pursue you |
| [01:37.38] |
|
| [01:38.50] |
What a night! What a crowd! |
| [01:39.94] |
Makes you glad |
| [01:40.62] |
Makes you proud |
| [01:41.38] |
All the crème, de la crème |
| [01:43.31] |
Watching us, watching them |
| [01:44.50] |
All our fears are in the past |
| [01:46.30] |
Three months of relief |
| [01:47.06] |
Of delight, of Elysian peace |
| [01:50.48] |
And we can breathe at last |
| [01:51.55] |
No more notes, no more ghost |
| [01:52.86] |
Here's a health, here's a toast |
| [01:54.23] |
To a prosperous year |
| [01:55.36] |
To our friends who are here |
| [01:57.54] |
And may the splendor never fade |
| [01:59.88] |
|
| [02:00.56] |
What a blessed release |
| [02:03.00] |
And what a masquerade |
| [02:04.81] |
Think of it, a secret engagement |
| [02:06.93] |
|
| [02:07.62] |
Look, your future bride, just think of it |
| [02:12.37] |
But, why is it secret? What have we to hide? |
| [02:15.68] |
|
| [02:16.74] |
You promised me, no, Raoul, please don't, they'll see |
| [02:18.74] |
Well then let them see, it's an engagement, not a crime |
| [02:21.84] |
|
| [02:22.53] |
Christine, what are you afraid of? |
| [02:26.89] |
Let's not argue |
| [02:28.63] |
(Let's not argue) |
| [02:29.89] |
Please pretend |
| [02:31.26] |
(I can only hope) |
| [02:32.44] |
You will understand in time |
| [02:35.32] |
(I'll understand in time) |
| [02:36.81] |
|
| [03:50.88] |

|
| [05:13.06] |

|
| [06:12.21] |

| [06:16.65] |
|
| [06:23.20] |
Madame Giry. Madame Giry . . . |
| [06:28.26] |
Monsieur, don't ask me - I know no more than anyone else. |
| [06:31.63] |
|
| [06:32.14] |
That's not true. You've seen something, haven't you ? |
| [06:34.76] |
|
| [06:35.38] |
I don't know what I've seen ... Please , monsieur don't ask me ... |
| [06:40.12] |
|
| [06:41.12] |
Madame, for all our sakes ... |
| [06:43.12] |
|
| [06:49.36] |
Very well. It was years ago. There was a travelling fair in the city. |
| [06:59.34] |
|
| [07:00.65] |
Tumblers, conjurors, human oddities ... |
| [07:05.96] |
Go on ... |
| [07:07.02] |
And there was ... I shall never forget him: a man, Iocked in a cage ... |
| [07:15.06] |
In a cage ...? |
| [07:16.81] |
A prodigy, monsieur! Scholar, architect, musician. |
| [07:21.73] |
|
| [07:22.36] |
A composer ... |
| [07:23.04] |
And an inventor too, monsieur. |
| [07:24.36] |
|
| [07:25.86] |
They boasted he had once built for the Shah of Persia, a maze of mirrors ... |
| [07:32.16] |
Who was this man ...? |
| [07:33.28] |
A freak of nature ...more monster than man ... |
| [07:38.09] |
Deformed ...? |
| [07:38.53] |
From birth, it seemed ... |
| [07:40.52] |
My God, Christine! |
| [07:41.45] |
And then ... he went missing. He escaped.: |
| [07:44.83] |
Go on. |
| [07:45.82] |
They never found him...it was said he had died ... |
| [07:50.13] |
But he didn't die, did he? |
| [07:51.63] |
The world forgot him, but I never can |
| [07:54.81] |
|
| [07:55.68] |
For in this darkness I have seen him again ... |
| [07:59.30] |
And so our Phantom's this man ... |
| [08:00.89] |
|
| [08:01.71] |
I have said too much, monsieur. And there have been too many accidents ... |
| [08:06.09] |
Accidents?! Madame Giry! |
