I have no words. You did this PERFECTLY! The real kicker about Eponine's situation is that she never truly loved Marius. What she loved was an idea that he represented. And she KNOWS this, but she clings to her "love" for him despite being fully aware that it's false because she feels that it's the only thing she has that's worth living for. To quote Aragorn from Lord Of The Rings: "It is but a shadow, and a thought that you love."

I can definitely tell that you’ve listened to this song a million times and put a lot of thought into it, because your version sounds different than any other I’ve heard before. I can catch influences of other performances but it’s really your own. Beautiful

On my own Pretending he's beside me All alone I walk with him till morning Without him I feel his arms around me And when I lose my way I close my eyes And he has found me In the rain the pavement shines like silver All the lights are misty in the river In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight And all I see is him and me forever and forever And I know it's only in my mind That I'm talking to myself and not to him And although I know that he is blind Still I say, there's a way for us I love him But when the night is over He is gone The river's just a river Without him The world around me changes The trees are bare and everywhere The streets are full of strangers I love him But every day I'm learning All my life I've only been pretending Without me His world will go on turning A world that's full of happiness That I have never known I love him I love him I love him But only on my own

You and I have very similar stories about becoming hooked on Les Mis. My mom was listening to the highlight cassette tape one afternoon and I asked her about it. I subsequently "borrowed" the tape from her (pretty sure I still have it) and listened to it over and over. That Christmas, my parents gave me the complete symphonic recording on CD. It was the first CD I ever owned. By the time I saw the show that April, I had every word memorized. I've since seen it four times live and listened to dozens of different versions of the songs. This is by far the best cover I've ever heard, and right up there with some of the actual cast recordings I've heard. Just out of curiosity, who's your favorite Eponine?
@miriamlaestaciondelalectur12606 жыл бұрын
I watched Les Mis last week and this song it's one of my faves. Later, I looked for some covers and I watched your old cover and I loved it, and know you've sung it again and your voice it's really beautiful and powerful ♥

Sorry to be an audio geek for a moment, but I absolutely love the vocal treatment on this. I'm not sure what's going on here.. Maybe a new compressor reigning in the dynamics? The quiet passages are nice and forward, and I can hear that soft vibrato. Balanced very well with the backing track. Whilst I'm here, I might as well also say I loved the performance. This song always gets me, and it's worthy of a Brittany treatment :)
