  • love it

  • Absolutely beautiful. No matter how many times I listen to it.

  • I like Shimada better on this song, because although Salonga's voice is beautiful, in that scene Eponine is supposed to be dying, and Shimada does a better job of convincing you that she is Eponine and that she is dying. Don't get me wrong, I live both versions.

  • Lea Salonga has such a gorgeous voice. It makes me bawl every single time.

  • I would loveeee to play the part of Eponine... Love the emotions that come through this song! Cant afford to see the play but one day i will!

    <3

  • I'm trying out for Eponine for our choir play this year. I don't know if I'll get the part; I cannot get through this song without bawling.

  • when marius sings "grow" and Eponine doesn't...I break down. every time. And, I'm a big tough plumber.

  • Ms. Salonga is THE Eponine

  • Eponine was my favorite character and I could relate to her! I cry every time I hear this song. MARIUS AND EPONINE!!!!!!!

  • Poor girl... suffering an unrequited love and then just having her life snatched from her like that... :'(

  • I'm in tears :(

  • SHE DIDN'T FINISH THE SONG!!!!! DX so so sad ;__;

  • i cant stop listening to this, its been on loop for the last hour and a half :P x

  • I have the music for "I'll sleep in your embrace" at last tattooed on my arm :)

  • I've never been able to see the play so I'm not familiar with a lot of the songs. I've adored 'On My Own' for more than 10 years since I first heard it, so today I decided to seek out Eponine's other songs and this is just heartbreaking. Even only knowing the barest background and a little about the love triangle and how it ended up, I wasn't expecting to be so moved by it.

  • Oh, dear. This song always gets to me! I mean, Eponine is my favorite character, so of course I would ball at her tragic death--- and where she also has to let go of the one she loves (and give him to that darn Cosette)!

  • I am making a mixed cd of my all time favorite Broadway love songs and this is number 1 :) I am also making a cd of my all time favorite love songs and it is too number 1 :D

  • I bawled for hours.. i still am now.

    this is the kind of music that inspires my poems

    there all about death. people say i'm emo but i'm not. my poems are about the final moments that are heart wrenching like this

  • This is better than the one with Nick Jonas and Samantha Barks. This has more feeling

  • is this an actuall song from the play cause im auditioning for it and i want to sing this

  • @DancingInTheRian Yes, this is the actual song. Good luck on your audition!

  • Oh dear. I nearly cried, I must admit.

  • This song is so beautiful, it makes me sad though...

  • If this did not bring tears to your eyes....you don't have a heart.

  • @UreiNeko I normally don't cry during musicals, but when I first heard this song I was bawling like a baby!
