00:00 Thank you. My next song is a song about faith. The composer that wrote this
00:09 particular piece has been so supportive of me throughout the years and is a
00:14 wonderful, wonderful friend. Tonight I would like to thank him for all the
00:19 beautiful music he has written and also for the beautiful music that he has
00:25 given to me to sing. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Andrew Lloyd Webber.
00:49 Sarah, your voice seems to have developed since I last saw you.
00:56 And wonderful so. Thank you.
00:58 It's fabulous to hear you singing. You sound fantastic tonight.
01:01 Thank you.
01:02 It's wonderful. And thank you for asking me.
01:05 I'm really glad you could come.
01:07 Well, I only live around the corner, so I have not much excuse.
01:11 Anyway, I'm supposed to go through there.
01:14 Okay.
01:15 [applause]
01:33 Right. This is from a musical of Andrew's that's opening in London next year.
01:41 And it's called Whistle Down the Wind.
01:45 [applause]
01:49 [music]
01:55 Whistle down the wind.
02:00 Let your voices carry.
02:05 Drown out all the rain.
02:08 Light a patch of darkness.
02:10 Prejudice is scary.
02:15 Howl at the stars.
02:20 Whisper when you're sleeping.
02:25 I'll be there to hold you.
02:28 I'll be there to stop the tears and all the weeping.
02:35 Make it clear once to all.
02:40 Stay the whole night long.
02:45 Every signal that you send until the very end.
02:51 I will not abandon you, my precious friend.
02:58 So try and step the tide.
03:04 The war is over now.
03:08 Set the flare up in the sky.
03:11 Try to burn a torch and try to blow the fire.
03:18 Every signal that you send until the very end.
03:24 I'm there.
03:30 Whistle down the wind.
03:33 For I have always been right.
03:38 [music]
03:57 Howl at the stars.
04:02 Whisper when you're sleeping.
04:07 I'll be there to hold you.
04:10 I'll be there to stop the tears and all the weeping.
04:17 Make it clear once to all.
04:22 Stay the whole night long.
04:28 Every signal that you send until the very end.
04:34 I will not abandon you, my precious friend.
04:41 So stay the wind.
04:48 Run out all the way.
04:52 Light a patch of dark glass.
04:54 Treacherous and scary.
04:59 Every signal that you send until the very end.
05:05 I'm there.
05:11 So whistle down the wind.
05:15 For I have always been right there.
