Confused on "A Heart Full of Love"I was listening to Les Miserables (The OBC version), the other day and decided to look up the lyrics to "A Heart Full of Love". This websitehttp://www.lyricsondemand.com/soundtracks/l/lesmiserableslyrics/ Showed the lyrics to be as follows: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cosette, Marius & E - A Heart Full of Lyrics (Time has passed. Suggest Marius convalescing, encouraged by Cosette who takes his arm as he walks with firmer step) COSETTE Every day You walk with stronger step You walk with longer step- `The worst is over.' MARIUS Every day I wonder every day Who was it brought me here From the barricade? COSETTE Don't think about it, Marius! With all the years ahead of us! I will never go away And we will be together Every day. Every day, We'll remember that night And the vow that we made: A heart full of love A night full of you The words are old But always true. Oh, God, for shame You did not even know my name! MARIUS Dear Mad'moiselle I was lost in your spell. (Valjean enters, unnoticed) COSETTE A heart full of love No fear no regret `My name is Marius Pontmercy' MARIUS Cosette, Cosette! COSETTE I saw you waiting and I knew. MARIUS Waiting for you At your feet COSETTE At your call BOTH And it wasn't a dream Not a dream after all VALJEAN(interjecting, to himself) She was never mine to keep. She is youthful, she is free. Love is the garden of the young Let it be... let it be... A heart full of love This I give you on this day. (They notice Valjean) MARIUS M'sieur, this is a day I can never forget. Is gratitude enough For giving me Cosette? Your home shall be with us And not a day shall pass But we will prove our love To you, whom we shall call A father to us both A father to us all. (Cosette leaves) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I own both the Original Broadway Cast recording and the Original London Cast recording. Neither has these lyrics. Is there another version out of Les Miserables that I'm not aware of, or are the foreign parts spoken words of the musical? Need help to find some answers. You guys are the best. Thanks for you help!

Those lyrics are from "Every Day", which is after Empty Chairs At Empty Tables. The tune is the same to "A Heart Full Of Love", and some of the lyrics are also from AHFOL, but the song is NOT AHFOL. So the website is wrong. The real AHFOL comes right before Attack on Rue Plumet. You can find a copy of the song "Every Day" on the Complete Symphonic Recording LM cd. | ||

The above lyrics are also called 'A Heart Full Of Love Reprise' | ||

It's mislabeled. Those are the lyrics to "Every Day."
Get the CSR; you'll hear it there. |

Thank you all for the speedy reply. I really appreciate the information. I had no idea that a third version of Les Miserables existed, i'm referring to the CSR. So, just so i know, is that it in terms of double disc CD sets?
1) Original London Cast 2) Original Broadway Cast 3) Complete Symphonic Recording Are their any more that I should be aware of? |

4) Tenth Anniversary Concert And yes, that's it -- in English, at any rate. |

Very Angry Woman, you are awesome. Thank you! I'm going to check out the CSR and the 10th Anniversary versions. You know, I'm slowly getting back into listening to musicals. In high school and college all I knew were Phantom of the Opera, Les Mis, Miss Saigon and later Rent. It's been 8 years since then and I have no idea what's going on in the musical world. Do you have any recommendations? Any musical that stands out as a MUST listen to? I appreciate all of your opinions, thanks!

I can try. (It's late. OK, not that late, but I'm sick so it feels late...)
Some of the favorites on my shelf are: * Side Show * 110 in the Shade (this is very hard to find at a decent price, though, so you may just want to hear samples on Amazon first) * Tick...Tick...Boom! * Urinetown (although I much prefer the first national tour cast to the OBC) I also have the cast recording of Spelling Bee, but sadly haven't even had the chance to open it yet. |

Thanks Angry Woman. (by the way, with so much beautiful music, why are you so angry?) I'm looking forward to listening to new musicals. | ||

Other new musicals? Jason Robert Brown. The Last 5 Years, Parade, and Songs For a New World. His music is stunning (although his lyrics can be a bit iffy). | ||

The misc forum is a good place to chat about musicals other than Les Mis. |
