la-princesse-incongrue:

On my birthday I learned that I have a lot of trouble playing piano while intoxicated, but my mom’s sleep-deprived lyrics to Stars are pretty much flawless.

Stars
In the multitude
Are really shiny
Shiny and twinkly
Twinkly stars
Shine your light on me
So I can find the man with the bread
The man with the bread
He stole the bread
He is working in a factory
And I saw him on the street
And I wasn’t sure it was him
Until he picked up the cart
And saved the woman
And then I knew
I must get the bread back
For my Nutella
It is hard to find Jean Valjean
Because he’s tricky and smart
And he picked up the cart
And if you fall like Lucifer fell
It hurts so bad
But I will find Jean Valjean
Because he has my bread
And I need to make a sandwich
And I will hunt him down and adopt a kid
Who will become a prostitute
But maybe
At the wedding
The Thénardiers will tell on him
This I swear by the stars
It’s so frustrating
I’ll find Jean Valjean

MUSICAL SONG OF THE DAY | i just felt like posting this version of drink with me.  1991 french revival cast.  it’s one of my absolute favourite renditions of the song.  everyone’s voice is perfect for their character and basically it just leaves me in a puddle of emotion.

MUSICAL SONG OF THE DAY | continuing with the les mis post per day - the attack on rue plumet from the 1988 symphonic recording!  not necessarily my all time favourite rendition, HOWEVER it DOES have the original segment at the beginning, an exchange between montparnasse and eponine that was later deleted.  it played out really well on stage and I MISS IT LIKE MAD. 

MUSICAL SONG OF THE DAY | decided to continue this meme and since Les Miserables is picking up speed thought I would maybe post some of my favourite recordings of different songs?  Well, to start here’s the 2010 Spanish cast!  Obviously not an English recording, but definitely not one to miss!  A++ highly recommended.  This is One Day More.
