He also had film roles in 'The War Lover', 'A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum'. and 'How I Won the War' (which brought him into the same work as John Lennon).
Andrew Lloyd Webber's casting of him opposite Sarah Brightman and Steve Barton as the Phantom in 1986 shot his career into high gear. Winning a Tony Award for his role, Crawford also had the aforementioned tune, "The Music Of The Night", reach the British Top Ten. He has released several studio albums such as 'A Touch of Music in the Night' and 'On Eagle's Wings' among others.

Holly Greenhalgh
Some of us belong to the stars
And that is where I am going.
I will soar all over the sky
And I won't need a Boeing.
Most people stay and battle on with their boredom.
But what's the sense in dreaming dreams if you hoard 'em ?
It won't be long before I say my ta-ta's,
I belong to the stars.
Some of us belong to the stars.
Up there is where you'll find me.
If you want to come for the ride.
Then form a queue behind me.
Soon I'll be wallowing in all of life's riches.
I'm going to carve myself some crater-like niches;
You better go rehearse your hip-hip-hoorahs!
I belong to the stars.
Some of us belong to the stars;
There's followers and leaders.
Some of us are born to be great
And some are born conceders.
So I will go wherever winners assemble.
Yes, from now on the world won't spin, it will tremble.
I'll soon be passing round the Cuban cigars,
I belong to the stars.
Some of us belong to the stars.
We fly around in orbit.
We soak up the wisdom of life
While others can't absorb it.
I'll hang my hat in every part of the atlas.
Most of the time I will be hopelessly hatless.
You must come visit one of my shangri-la's,
I belong to the stars.
Christine Srock
I have loved this musical for so many years. I saw it TWICE in London in 75/76. Michael is dynamic, and it's hard to believe shows like this can't be made again. It will leave you signing and dancing forever.

This morning I awoke with an ear worm, a song from this show that my mother took me to see nearly 40 years ago, I was 14 and so began a lifelong love of musical theatre. So pleased to have found this here today, its made a middle age man very happy indeed!

I am glad to have fulfilled your lifelong ambition to find the song - it has haunted me for years and I only found it on a big John Barry Themependium compilation I downloaded years ago. Thanks for your comment.
mavis wood
andijs2000 Wow,first heard Gary Wilmer sing this on a Don Black Show on BBC 2 I think he told us it was John Barry's favourite from the show and mine tooFantastic
Mary Hatch
I saw this show in London back in the mid-1970s. I remember it as a joyous experience, so good I saw it two or three times. Michael Crawford had the sort of stage presence that continually drew the eyes. Happy times.
Martin Bowyer
I was 14 or 15 when I saw this show with my parents. I'm 62 now but it will always be with me.

This song gives me goose bumps. One of the best theatre shows I have seen. I’m still confused how Michael got from one side of the stage to the other. I need this music on cd as I lost my vinyl of it.

I’ve been humming this tune for over 40 years! Saw the show in London on a trip after college graduation! By chance I started doing searches and was delighted to find this clip!
Richard Hall
Billy is in my top ten of musicals and this song is the reason why. A great performance and a knock out tune from John Barry.
Gretchen Chellson
I was the harpist on this record, and for the run of the show.
