Phantom:
Night-time sharpens,
heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defences ...
Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendour
Grasp it, sense it - tremulous and tender
Turn your face away
from the garish light of day,
turn your thoughts away
from cold, unfeeling light -
and listen to the muziki of the night ...
Close your eyes and surrender to your
darkest dreams!
Purge your thoughts of the life
wewe knew before!
Close your eyes,
let your spirit start to soar!
And you'll live
as you've never lived before ...
Softly, deftly,
muziki shall surround wewe ...
Feel it, hear it,
closing in around wewe ...
Open up your mind,
let your fantasies unwind,
in this darkness which
wewe know wewe cannot fight -
the darkness of the muziki of the night ...
Let your mind start a journey
through a strange new world!
Leave all thoughts
of the world wewe knew before!
Let your soul take wewe where you
long to be !
Only then can wewe belong to me ...
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication!
Touch me, trust me savour each sensation!
Let the dream begin,
let your darker side give in
to the power of the muziki that I write -
the power of the muziki of the night ...
wewe alone can make my song take flight -
help me make the muziki of the night
Night-time sharpens,
heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defences ...
Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendour
Grasp it, sense it - tremulous and tender
Turn your face away
from the garish light of day,
turn your thoughts away
from cold, unfeeling light -
and listen to the muziki of the night ...
Close your eyes and surrender to your
darkest dreams!
Purge your thoughts of the life
wewe knew before!
Close your eyes,
let your spirit start to soar!
And you'll live
as you've never lived before ...
Softly, deftly,
muziki shall surround wewe ...
Feel it, hear it,
closing in around wewe ...
Open up your mind,
let your fantasies unwind,
in this darkness which
wewe know wewe cannot fight -
the darkness of the muziki of the night ...
Let your mind start a journey

The Story
While the story is exactly like the stage version, some songs were revise for logical reasons. A couple of them were shortened to avoid repetition, the ending with the elderly Raoul was added that is not feature in the stage version.
Music of the Night
As mentioned, many familiar songs are feature and are shortened. Originally, the Phantom (Erik in the original novel) has a new song which was written specially for this film. But it was omitted due to time constrain, it is feature on the Special Edition DVD.
The Characters
While watching this film, I keep thinking that this film is like Disney's Beauty and the Beast, with the exception of the ending which both the antagonist and protagonist did not die.
In All Your Fantasies
So, these are my thoughts on the film and enjoy it.
