Which track?

what one track do you guys think sums up les mis? (exlcluding 'one day more')

i think it's 'who am i' as les mis is about identity (to an extent) if you think about Fantine searching for her lost dream, jean valjean having mixed identities, javert always stuck by who he was only to realise he had been living in the shadow of a lie, eponine trying to find what she needs to do for marius to love him etc etc...
Ulla Dance Again!

Hmm...

Good question.

Well, At The End Of The Day could sum up Les Mis... mainly because at the time there were issues with the middle class (or lower class) with the main government... but Who Am I? definitely fits all the characters.
Fantine

Interesting question...

'Do You Hear the People Sing'

Because this actually words the feelings of helplessness, the people's fears and that they've had enough of this repression. I think you can find this in every character, once you've looked at a possible deeper meaning beyond the fact that it's a song about the revolution.

I second that! And that's also linked with the end bit of the finale which is like a message of hope.
