It is the first time the audience hears the Christine character's voice.ĭavid Archuleta covered this song on the Apepisode from American Idol's 7th season. The song begins in the key of "D", and modulates to the key of "Eb," and is the third song in the show. The lyrics of the song itself are asking someone to think of the singer (Elissa), even when they are "far away and free."
During the performance that night, Christine's childhood friend, Raoul de Chagny, attends and is particularly impressed when he hears her. Tentatively, Christine begins to sing, but soon she gains confidence and amazes the entire company with her voice and is given the role. The managers almost cancel the show, but Meg Giry suggests that her friend Christine Daaé could sing the part. She quits, having had many similar experiences for several years. At first, Carlotta Giudicelli is cast in the part, but during rehearsal a backdrop falls dangerously close to her. It is sung by Elissa in the fictional Hannibal opera.
