OMG, KUMU MADE LOVE NEVER DIES FANART!!!

Haha!! WOWWW, this one was FUN stuff!!! My favorite part is Ramin's mouth... not even because it's Ramin's mouth, but because I liked the way it came out.

Here goes my rant:

Upon first hearing of the "sequel" to The Phantom of the Opera a few years ago, I thought that it was the worst idea EVER. I thought, "Why?! WHY, Andrew Lloyd Webber? The first one is perfectly fine by itself, it doesn't need a sequel!... Set in Coney Island, no less!!" But, as I said, this was a few years ago. I'd never given it much thought again, until last month when I was looking up Phantom videos on Youtube for kicks and giggles, and I stumbled across one of the songs from 'Love Never Dies'.

Still skeptical, I discussed it with ~Digital-ARTISTRY before I actually sat down and decided that I should give this musical a chance, and listen to the entire Concept Album. And so I did.

I must admit, at first, I thought it was really cool, and it had a very magical fantastical feel to it, but I just thought it was weird. The story wasn't my main concern, my main concern was the character "development"... I don't want Raoul to be an abusive, pitiful drunk, and I don't want the Girys to be conniving, and selfish. The music is what really got me.

Wull, lemme just say, that it was definitely something that had to grow on me... and NOW I have to admit, I freaking love it!!!!! I know about the changes made to the show and the songs, but, honestly, I have been listening to Love Never Dies music for an entire month now. I don't really associate it with the real original Phantom of the Opera show, because I sorta feel like Love Never Dies... not spoils but it makes the original story weird for me, so I just think of it as a stand-alone of would COULD happen 10 years later, not what DID happen... I don't know, don't stone me!

.......... and Ramin Karimloo....... Omg, I freaking love that guy, he's so stinking awesome. & I think Sierra is stinking awesome too. & Joe Millson & Summer Strallen. Been watching all the LND videos I can find on YouTube, I confess...

So, imagine my disappointment when I heard that this show is closing on the 27th of August... Chyeah. It's still going in Australia, which is cool, but the London production is gonna be gone on Saturday... Agh, that's so lame... but, hey, that's how these things go. What can ya do?

To honor this show, I really wanted (needed) to do some fanart. And, I'm sorry if you're sitting there thinking, "Is she done yet?!" But if you read this whole thing, then, personally from me to you, You Rock. Woulda been cool to see it live, but I'll hafta stick to the YouTube clips.

If you don't like LND, then I respect that, it's completely understandable, that's okay. Haha, just pretend it's Erik and Christine in a deleted song or somethin'... ? lol.

❀ ❃ THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!!!! ❃ ❀ Sorry for the LONG description.
