Nice.

I always notice the music more when they don't sing in English, or French.

I noticed that at the end she doesn't say " I love him, i love him, i love him" as well. She says something like "So strong, so tender " i think.

I don't speak russian, but i know little bit of czech.

Wow, what a pleasant surprise. That was actually pretty good.

I love the orchestral track. I wonder where they got it from? The rearranged drums in the second half give the songa very pop-ish sound. Interesting.

I liked the girl's voice. Her acting was pretty convincing too and NOT annoying like most Eponine wanna-be's, lol.

I think that's the hardest thing to pull for anyone attempting to do this role whether professionally or not - is not being annoying. I can't explain it as well as I'd like to, but I think it has to do with getting absorbed enough into the character, that you come off convincing. Those who dwell on the pity part like to portray themselves through the character and end up ruining the song. I think when people hear that the role needs "emotion," they interpret that as having to make sad expressions and being whiney. No. It only means convincing yourself and the audience that you're who you're supposed to be playing.

I think this is why I hate Diana Karrina's and Lea's concert Eponine. They were far too self-absorbed and I did not believe their interpretations one bit. I hope I'm making sense. It's late.

Btw...what were those creepy, cloaked thingies in the beginning? Laughing

I don't know Smile I think it was a concert with songs from different shows, and those "things" just forgot to get off the stage before the next number started... Laughing
