Les Miserables 25th Anniversary Concert, 10/3

I wanted to go to this really badly, but i knew flying to London to watch Nick Jonas would probably not fly. Even when i said i wanted to see Norm Lewis (who played Javert), we still didn't go. So i have been watching the couple of videos that have been uploaded from the concert, and living vicariously through them :)
The original London 1985 cast singing One Day More, let's be honest, definitely almost made me cry yesterday. Michael Ball as Marius is just too much: he is phenomenal!!!
sidenote:  when i was, i don't know, maybe 12, we went to London and saw Chitty Chitty Bang Bang starring Michael Ball. AFter the show we accidentally almost bumped into him outside the stagedoor! goodtimes. :)



All the videos i have seen have been amazing, but I'll post three more. If you are wondering why they are singing into mics, its because it is Les Mis in CONCERT and not the actual show. Here is Nick singing Empty Chairs...i have no words for how ridiculously good he is at this:



A Little Fall of Rain: (Samantha Barks, playing Eponine, is Nick's supposed current girlfriend. Personally, i really like her, so i don't mind! haha)



AAAAAAND my very favorite Les Mis song, Red and Black. I'm pretty sure there are few people like me whose favorite song is this one, because everybody else likes "On My Own" or "I Dreamed A Dream", etc. But have you ever sang Red and Black (Or Do you Hear the People Sing, my 2nd favorite song) at the top of your lungs before? You may just change your mind. :)



enjoy! And to my dad, watch these. Then let me buy the DVD. merciii.
