Les Misérables: 13- Look Down

[@accordingtosophia]

Something tells me that kid who played Gavroche was way too excited to shout "hell!" on stage.

[@Geeky.rainbow.vampire]

You actually can hear it in his voice xD

[@Vigates]

Also, Gavroche has an amazing voice

[@michaelhollander5411]

I do agree his voice was amazing.... For an 11yr old....

[@clarissamitchell9936]

Gavroche has got such a nice voice. Also I don't know what is going on.

[@Cestlaphi]

It’s okay. It’ll come, It’ll come, It’ll come, It’ll come..... (😉)

[@6Shooter28]

poor people stay suffering, is the gist

[@TheDevinShaelyc]

I know this reply's a bit late, but Gavroche's accent is meant to be off to show he grew up on the streets in the lower-class slums of Paris, and as such can't speak French properly (in regards to grammar and such)

[@lsmith6046]

true

[@TheChristianFairy]

I love how a little kid is just shouting 'WTH?!' without even giving it much thought. Wonder what his parents thought of that line...

[@pillowmcstuffing9365]

TheChristianFairy it's not that bad

[@arielvillademayo]

It's not the same to shout "What the hell" than "What the f###".

[@ea6102]

@@arielvillademayo yeah but to a little kid it's all the same

[@pbjlionac7239]

Gavroche is normally played by a midget middle aged woman with a high pitched voice

[@theguywhoisaustralian1465]

Considering his parents also had to watch him get shot. I think they didn't care too much.

[@ellent.dulles-coelho9996]

Gavroche is soooo good!

[@lsmith6046]

he is sooooo me minus the cussing

[@RunningHamsterPower]

My friend and I had a lot of Les Mis songs memorized when we were in kindergarten. We sang them all the time.

[@randomdragonbooks]

I didn't know what les mis was until I was in 4th grade though...

[@Jennithebaker]

I've always loved this version of the song. They sing with so much venom. And Gavroche!!

[@bison4946]

I know this is late. Its probably just me but when Enjolras screams “when the barricades arise” I get chills. Its just really good singing but does this happen to anyone else lol

[@Jackal1888]

Only reason I am here right now

[@angeldemusique1115]

I just saw this last night, and this was one of the best numbers.......I was completely blown away by the sheer talent of the entire cast. Thanks for posting this, it's now one of my favorite songs.

[@zhangvict1]

as always, what a charming little rascal!

[@deadlybookwyrm1348]

Saw this on Broadway, it was great!!!

[@starsetjester]

I have this on vinyl. It''s the version of gavroche i love most. love both tho. just his voice is beautiful

[@caleb1413]

I have it on vinyl too!

[@Piankhi_the_Greater]

This song can still be applied to today!

[@BG_NC]

This has got to be my favorite song from Les Miserables.

[@ep6927]

Being French I don't get the obsession about the right accent to use. They don't speak italian and don't use an italian accent in Romeo and Juliet performance even if the action takes place in Italy, or Danish in Hamlet. Nothing wrong with that. Yes it is a french story, about french people in France and French people speak french. But if the actors are British or Americans, they speak english with their own accents.This is pointless to sing with a fake french accent or immitate a british accent. That boy is american and sings with an american accent. So be it.

[@lires8119]

it sounds so weird without the accents, I go to sing it with the cockney accent and it's gone hahhah!! I love it though, Gavroche is a1

[@Bball1414bc]

this is one of the greatest songs ever

[@alamex5715]

BEGGARS Look down and see the beggars at your feet Look down and show some mercy if you can Look down and see the sweepings of the street Look down, look down, Upon your fellow man! GAVROCHE 'Ow do you do? My name's Gavroche. These are my people. Here's my patch. Not much to look at, nothing posh Nothing that you'd call up to scratch. This is my school, my high society Here in the slums of Saint Michele We live on crumbs of humble piety Tough on the teeth, but what the hell! Think you're poor? Think you're free? Follow me! Follow me! BEGGARS Look down and show some mercy if you can Look down, look down, upon your fellow man!

Where are the swells who run this show? MARIUS Only one man - and that's Lamarque Speaks for these people here below.

MARIUS Lamarque is ill and fading fast! Won't last the week out, so they say. ENJOLRAS With all the anger in the land How long before the judgement day? Before we cut the fat ones down to size? Before the barricades arise? BEGGARS Look down and show some mercy if you can Look down, look down upon your fellow man!

[@AwesomeNinjaDoesMC]

This version of this song is soooo much more intense than it is in the 2012 film, i love iiiiiit.

[@gabriellarasinar5548]

They literally sing like angels🤩

[@lilaryan5396]

Gavroche sounds exactly like my friend Gabe!(it scares me)

[@DragonMasterThlayli]

This was one of my favorites! I was lucky enough to see the London west end musical on a school trip last year (when Alfie Boe and Matt Lucas were in it!).

[@hollisjo4023]

This reminds if Mulan or Miss Saigon or something because of the music

[@averyclayton7356]

OH MY WORD THIS KIDS VOICE

[@RikkiLove0317]

I miss Gavroche :'(

[@Liv24_Productions]

Listening to this and doing re homework

[@GallifreyJay]

I LOVE this one.

[@Bball1414bc]

@MJavert13 this is the best production, any production of les mis is amazing

[@ZSchrink]

Beautiful; thought-provoking!

[@miichan1819]

1:34 I used to think he said "cockatoo" lol

[@lamisere8337]

The ignorance displayed on these original Broadway Les Mis tracks comments regarding the absence of Cockney accents is mind numbing.

[@gracekratz1025]

Enrique Sanchez Actually, if it were to be completely accurate, their accents would be French. Les Mis is just usually done in the accent of the place it is performed in.

[@inkedwell]

At first listen I thought he said "my name's Garrosh". Warcraft Orc on Broadway!

[@gaara42394]

love this

[@furby9619]

I don't mean to be ignorant, but I've actually never heard it with the cockney accent. this is the version I grew up with, and I honestly can't get used to anything else, you know? XD

[@audreymarieburge]

I was casually scrolling thru the comments and feeling depressed about COVID-19, and your comment made me laugh so hard at the very idea of Yu-Gi-Oh characters playing Les Mis characters.

[@erisatilano8673]

Gavroche!

[@LaraTang]

+Eris Atilano I know! :D

[@dollyvalentine8455]

Am I the only one who thinks that Gavroche should be the one in the logo, not Cosette? He embodies the themes of the show more, and he does more(Including dying for the cause!)

[@booberfraggle]

MediaMaster 263 I totally agree! A lot of the show is about the things that were done to help Cosette, but Gavroche actually participates and helps move the story along. I’d much rather him be the logo. He deserves it!

[@melonyrobinson9944]

I read this in a youtube comments section once, and to pass on the message, I would say that Gavroche is a good symbol for the show, but while Gavroche symbolizes more of lost innocence, Cosette symbolizes hope

[@extremecallor]

Where is "Watch out for old Thernadier......."?

[@MrCaptainLarry]

@klorel6 It's a young boy, playing a character called Gavroche

[@oliverbornemann]

I LOVE GAVROCHE! But it sounds like he's saying "Here in Saint Michelle"

[@mattieschwartz8584]

Well, it's the slums of saint michelle, so he's right.

It doesn't sound as good with the American accent, sounds better with the cockney accent

[@KevinFalkmrbroadway456]

+Megan R xxx reason is because a cockney accent is not a french accent so when they do it is doesn't work with the setting.

[@evawendel8414]

+Megan R xxx i agree! i am doing the play Les Miserables and I'm Gavroche and my directors are having me do a cockney accent and it sounds a lot better that way.

[@LuluClimbs]

Just speaking English technically doesn't work with the setting either. I personally like the Cockney accent, too, as it represents the social status really well. But as this production is American, a cockney accent might have been a little weird, too, so...

[@henksteen2784]

maybe because he's an American?
