you know their acting is effective when you feel like you're third wheeling

idk how actors can do these kinds of scenes without falling in love with each other.... i end up having a crush on anyone who says 2 words to me

Seriously, the chemistry is so thick I feel like I'm invading their privacy. I can't even look at them :)

I’m just gonna pretend the rest of the story never happened and that they made it to America safe, together and happy.

Seriously, that first soft, perfect note of Sun and Moon was so... perfect. If I had a voice like her

This scene is so romantic yet full of uncertainty and trust at the same time. This is the exact thing why Miss Saigon instilled it's emotions to the audience. Love and all its forms. Love ain't easy.

it's so sad to watch this after you've seen the whole play

CAN WE JUST TAKE A MOMENT AND APPRECIATE THE WAY CHRIS LOOKS AT KIM PLEASE?!?! IT HURTS ME SO MUCH!!!

I like the acting of Will Chase. Very natural and super match with our Lea Salonga

those laughter in between lines and the way they look at each other

I can't stop thinking on how Kim sat on Chris' lap and traced his features. To his forehead, to his nose and how she bit her lip and smiled genuinely. *I'm crying don't mind me*

I feel like this song is always forgotten. It's the song that sets the entire musical and makes me emotional every time I listen to it. The simplicity of their love, compared with the sun and the moon is so powerful. When they say 'and we meet in the sky", it sounds so naive out of context but fits so perfectly in the story, because they are naive and so lost in life. They only have enough to know that their love is as remarkable as the sun and moon's limited encounter in the sky. If you watch the entire show, you'll realise that the theme of sun and moon is everywhere. It's truly an amazing song. Boublil and Schönberg are an incredibly genius duo. Sun and Moon is definitely the best song in the show and by far my favourite song in the world because it's the only which has genuinely got me to the core.

How she can sing with a perfect note after that kiss 😲 she's really amazing.

Lea is so small, she just fits perfectly for Will.

This looked so real and intimate and romantic I feel like I'm intruding on a private moment. A true testament to this scene's emotional impact.

their acting is so intimite that I almost had a heart attack after watching this

They're much sweeter than the orginal Chris!

I was left by my American father and I was always been teased as a GI baby. I have tried searching for my father but I have no idea what his name is. My mom died while she was laboring and I am left with my grandparents. This story resounds so much and it calms the storm inside of me. It revives the memory of my mother. And it reflects the hardships I have experienced. Miss Saigon will always be a part of me.

I love how he raises her up from her kneeling position, to show that she's above him, and then sits her on his lap so that they are now equal ;_;

Literally the cutest moment I’ve ever seen in a musical- Chris: how would you like- Kim: how would I like?! (Excited) Chris: *laughing so freakin excited* How would you like living with me? Man, it’s not just these lines but the way that he can’t stop holding her to make sure she doesn’t leave him, the way he seems shocked when she responds so quickly before he even fully knows what he’s asking because he’s so suddenly in love he hasn’t even thought about it yet. AH! My HEART!

They seem so in love, I absolutely love it! Their chemistry is just perfection.

I was lucky enough to watch Lea perform this live in New York many sun and moons ago and it was magical! But this performance is sooooo sweet and tender. It felt as though they were really in love. Amazing...

This is a classic example of a performance that delivers all the emotions but did not compromise the melody and the vocal requirement for the scene! By far the rendition so far that I have seen in my opinion :)

looking so young but shes 27 at that time 😊💜love you lea

No joke.. I saw a tour performance of this show from the front row, this was years ago.. this song was soo powerful and the actor and actress that were playing Chris and Kim were both weeping during this song.. no joke and it was not scripted. Both of them cried thru it. It was so powerful .. not sure why.. i believe to this day it was the utter POWER and beauty of this song...

And this was the moment I fell in love with Will Chase.

Don’t mind me, just doing my daily praise of Lea Salonga

I have always loved Lea Salonga. But this particular performance just added my love and respect for her work. I don't just admire her as an astounding singer she already is. But for the passion she puts on every performance. That's true love over there. Not for Will Chase but for the art and performing.

everyone around me: shawn and camila are #duetgoals i feel like two people singing this song terribly would still be a better duet.

Bago pa man dumating yung "baby baby you're my sun and moon" my sun and moon na tayo noon pa.

I'VE WATCHED THIS SO MUCH IN THE PAST FEW DAYS I CAN'T STOP

currently 14 and im sad that i couldnt live in such a beautiful generation- where everyone bonded over beautiful music, classical movies like the sound of music, miss saigon, and all i can experience is hearing stories from my mother, grandmother. i felt so curious i had to see it for myself. it took my breath away. the kissing scene is soooo ughhdjfjdkcd goosebumps, even sound of music. i dont get how my classmates and friends havent seen this. few saw it after i wont stop talking about it ahahahahaha

2020 here. 😍

Bravo! I had the opportunity to play timpani/percussion with Lea. She was incredible! She always is.

Will Chase is my favorite. I just love him =)

I can't help but wonder how the audience felt being like a third wheel to this couple 🤔

One of the best Broadway scenes and songs in history. Thank you, Lea and Will for this epic performance. Absolutely beautiful

Lea looks like she’s still 17… she never ages! This is such a different interpretation from the original…very believable! It’s wonderful, of course. The original will always hold a special place in my memory and ♥️ Lea and Simon created Kim and Chris with pure talent and sizzling chemistry!

CHRIS YOU HAD ONE JOB

Will Chase played an American GI Chris, superbly, Again with so much passion as a Marine so in love. Theyre was genuine chemistry between him and his Kim, and his voice was great and sang with conviction, matching Lea's really well, Beautiful and harmonious. I liked it when he really kissed her, it showed the true depth of their love. His acting was fantastic and you felt what he was feeling, and I loved his curley red hair, that was an extra bonus for him. A true love story very similar to another Tragic Musical, Madam Butterfly. But in reality, this is what did happen to so many young girls in the countries where there were GI's. Why are some men so weak and fickle in their emotions that they're never willing to fight for what they really wanted and loved. They were just so ready to give up and live secret lives of guilt never thinking of the repercussions and emotional devastation of their actions and the havoc they left behind. I suppose, as they say, it's one Price of War. So Sad.

Thinking that lea salonga was just a teen when they performed it and hearing her said in an interview that during that time, she doesn't have any romantic relationship, she really did very good in acting to be inlove.

This song, as well as "Last Night of the World" (also from Miss Saigon), while tinged with sadness, are two of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Every detail that Lea Salonga and Will Chase put into their performances, both vocally and in their acting, really hit me in the feels. Lea and Will are my favorite Kim and Chris.

I'm amazed at her ability to act "young" here. A great actress, indeed! And of course, superb vocals as always!

So this is the theater... i never knew it so magical.

2020 na pero kinikilig parin ako sa dalawang to HAHAHAHA

All chris' broken promises. Dammit I feel like i was the one chris' left behind

I love the chemistry! Great performance! :)

the sad part is i will never see Lea doing Kim live. First I wasn't born when the play was made and second I'm only 16 years old so-

Best Match !!! Perfect Match. Will chase sweet, romantic and natural acting matches Leah's best. Emotionally powerful!!!

I’ve seen this play 4 different times with 4 different Girls who played Kim and still Lea Salonga is the best amongst all of them!

Lea Salonga is a great singer I love the way she sings it

pls, the way Chris and Kim looks at each other is immaculate. Lea and Will freaking nailed this. I'm crying idek why.

It's 2018 and I can't stop watching this sEND HELP I've been replaying the video for 3 days now ;-;

its chills me to the bone. They really captured my heart... what a beautiful performance... MISS SAIGON IS TIMELESS...

Will Chase's voice is playful. That makes me love him more. 😍

I had the privilege to watch miss saigon here in the Philippines 3 times, played by 3 different Kims. Lea Salonga, and the 2 others i just forgot their names. It was held at CCP manila. It was such an unforgettable and magical experience. All of the audiences who watched were formally dressed. It was treated like youre really in broadway.

It's so sad watching this again after knowing what will happen at the end :(

This performance is literally so flawless it’s unreal. They’re both perfect

[KIM] You are sunlight and I moon Joined by the gods of fortune Midnight and high noon Sharing the sky We have been blessed, you and I [CHRIS] You are here like a mystery I'm from a world that's so different From all that you are How in the light of one night Did we come so far? [KIM] Outside day starts to dawn [CHRIS] Your moon still floats on high [KIM] The birds awake [CHRIS] The stars shine too [KIM] My hands still shake [CHRIS] I reach for you [BOTH] And we meet in the sky! [KIM] You are sunlight and I moon Joined here Bright'ning the sky With the flame Of love [BOTH] Made of Sunlight Moonlight [KIM] Tomorrow will be the full moon I can bring friends to bless our room With paper unicorns and perfume If you want me to [CHRIS] Unicorns? sure. . .

I love this guy playing Chris, I saw him in Miss Saigon in New York in 1999

I just watched the 25th Anniversary performance yesterday and I'm back here. I'm crying because the story is so pure. The only safe haven on this story is this scene. My emotions are taking over. I'd better go.

I love you lea!!! I really love your voice.. (Just watching june 10, 2019.. )

Indeed this chemistry between the leads is palpable, sincere and deep...one is ultimately made aware that their time together is short in that millieu...but their joy in their love cannot be tarnished... WOW 🎉

Never gets old .... Lea's voice better than ever decades later

I saw her moon :)) she's so amazing, the voice quality, errthing

I've seen versions of this scene with Simon Bowman and it is NOT like this. Simon usually glances elsewhere while Will looks at Lea like he is really in love with her and never breaks that gaze like he is really in awe of her. I think Lea and Will's version will always be the best. All of their scenes feel so damn real.

i keep watching lea salonga in youtube i really love her voice

The way the music starts to swell and then finally releases on “And we meet in the sky” just makes me feel so many emotions. And the harmony between Kim and Chris is just so powerful. It brings me to tears every time. I wish this song was longer so that people wouldn’t forget it so easily.

"The perfect woman doesn't exi--"

Who's still with me? Aug 14, 2019

definitely my favourite chris with Lea Salonga, love them so much :)

Who's still watching this in 2019? 😅

Wow I was touched and mesmerised. The chemistry is undeniably strong. I was smiling throughout the whole video. Kinilig ako hihi. This performance was the best. Period

Best Kim and Chris ever!🌟 their height difference is everything😍🥰 this rendition is intimate, sexy and so moving, you never want it to end❤️

Couldn't tell where I knew Will Chase from, just realized he was Roger in Rent 😂

Aww I love the excitement and passion! His Chris seems to be more like a young boy rather than a protector and I like it that way.. Plus they make a cute couple :D

This made me cry.... every relationship has its own flame of love.

My favorite part is from 2:24 - 2:31 ! The harmony is absolutely beautiful! Lea Salonga has such an angelic voice :')

that first line “you are” makes me want to cry! 😭 Thank you Lord for Lea Salonga! ❤️

This is my favorite version of Sun and Moon. Their romantic love for each other looks natural. Everything in this is so natural

2019, anyone? who would want lea and will chase to reunite? on one stage again, anyone? urghhh. that would be so greaat!!! 😭💖

By far my favorite Chris. Will Chase is so passionate and it's truly beautiful.

2019 anyone?? ❤️😭 The feels uurghhhh

The chemistry unbelievable. The cute laughter in this production adds to the phenomenal production.

hit that replay button a thousand times..damn this is good

I've seen the full musical today. I can't stop listening to this scene and i CAN'T stop hurting. My heart grieves for Kim. MS will haunt me for days. Edit: I love Lea and I've been watching her musical clips and when i saw this one, i was smiling the whole time with how beautifully both she and Will executed it. Then i saw the whole musical and going back to this moving scene, I'm smiling sadly. This moment was a total eclipse. Sun and moon, relatively in our sky, only meet when one is leaving, much like them. Chris needs to leave when saigon was falling apart. When they met again, Kim was running out of time. They are indeed sun and moon, they cannot be together for long. But they do have that eclipse where they held each other tight and everything was perfect.

i'm going to show my voice teacher this, I must sound like Lea Salonga. She is so perfect and that's why her voice is so preserved till today. All the right, healthy techniques. phenomenal

Love this song sm😭😭miss Saigon will always be my favourite musical and I like this guy better than the other guy and ofc lea the most beautiful voice I’ve heard

I am in love with the both of them. The chemistry is undeniable. They could pass as real life lovers!

Though I love the music of the remake, and Eva and allistar do an great job, I like how sweet this one is. I feel like his Chris (though acting interpretation I know is a thing ) is more angry and frustrated, will’s is more loving and expressive but broken and needing something good. But both are great, I really love this one tho a lot

OMG LEA FORGOT TO PUT HER PANTS ON HAHAHAHHAAHAHA Lea's too sexy here

just wanna acknowledge what different of a level these artists are. Imagine singing, acting, blocking, music, etc. all in one take and it's damn perfect.

The chemistry, the acting, the lyrics, the situation IT MAKES ME CRY

How I wish I was already alive back then just to witness how Lea Salonga performed this masterpiece.

The best scene I have ever seen in any musical. It's so real and it's like the audience isn't even there. Just the two of them in love. Lea is fantastic but so is the guy, whoever he is. He really looks like a real soldier

how in the light of one night have we come so far...?

Lea's voice n acting here is AMAZING ❤

Around 2:59 is my favorite part, it just shows how sincere Kim is in professing her love and how much he thinks of Chris as her sun, while Chris looks like he was in a slight trance with what she was doing and eventually smiling at her to finish their duet. This scene just perfectly portrays how sincere and delicate an Asian woman’s love can be and Lea just showed it beautifully!

This makes me cry. It reminds me of the love I have for my Filipino gf. I would not be able to leave either. I'm completely in love with her.

I come back to this video every so often because of all the musicals I've seen, this song has touched me the most with it's pure, passionate depiction of love. It's such a wonder to watch Lea and Will, their chemistry is great in this and so tender. I CRY EVERYTIME 😭
