Lea Salonga - On My Own Live

[jamesgardell2]

@BritneyThe Legend: You mean Lea Michele with the annoyingly squeaky MINNIE MOUSE voice and the DIVA attitude when she doesn't even have talent which is why she's HATED in the industry by reporter, photographers, and castmates alike? The Lea MIchele whose best performance is lip-synching to showtunes that Glee totally ruins?

[hypereactiveGBU15]

I loved how she sang it in the 10th Anniversary of Les Miserables...

Search this up in YouTube

"[Les Miserables] 10th anniversary - On My Own "

Definitely the BEST!! GIVES ME SHIVERS!! AND HER FACIAL EXPRESSION CAN MAKE YOU FEEL THE PAIN OF HER UNREQUITED LOVE...BEST EPONINE!

[LadyClifftastic]

One of my all time favourite songs ever! What a pity it´s so far away but her voice is just beautiful! She´s my favourite Eponine of all time!

[paulobrienfan]

Wow shes amazing. And she looks like Lea Michelle from back watching the big screen lol. :)

Love it. Thanks for adding!

[BritneyTheLegend]

i like Lea Michelle's version better

[yellowsunflowers8]

@BritneyTheLegend Hahaha.. wait, you're kidding, right?

[bonbonquest]

@yellowsunflowers8 ...let's understand people like them. They'll never have the same kind of musical appreciation as we. I can't stop ridiculing the idea, though. Hahahah!

[MintMickeyDotCom]

Spine chilling when she gets to - "I love him, but when the night is over...he is gone - the river's just a river."

[jaymcb]

Both Lea's do the song justice. No need to compare.

[OfficialWhyRock722]

Try looking for her performance of this song on Les Miserables 10th Anniversary Concert. It's much wonderful!

[OfficialWhyRock722]

Say, I'm only 13. People keep saying "You're too young to be Lea's fan." Well am I? I don't feel like it. I love her very much. Call me "baduy" or whatever I don't care. HAH.

[omlee26]

she's great but i still absolutly love the other Lea...

[Disney69]

hmmm....really now...what LEA are you talking about???...I only know ONE Lea and that's LEA SALONGA...I have no IDEA what Lea your talking about...she must NOT be an INTERNATIONAL star like Lea Salonga...so what Lea are you talking about...???

[omlee26]

i dont know if she's international, and i have nothing against this Lea but i like Lea Michele a lot and not just bc of this paticular song

[Disney69]

ok ok...i see where your coming from...thanks for the info....JC

[anafortun]

@omlee26 "the other Lea"? There is only ONE Lea of consequence on Broadway and she towers above all these WANNABEs who want to be Eponine and sing On My Own...

[NomiMalone4]

Lea is perfection

[rcacoustic91]

I really enjoyed listening to Lea's voice for the uniqueness and the clarity of her voice. Having sung in a choir, I have sung with someone whose enunciations of words is bad and it makes a song or hymn bad. I enjoy singing for the challenge of performing to the best of my capabilities and it appears that Lea has done this with this song. She definitely has the pipes too!

[ikklecookiemonsta]

i love the story (yes, book AND musical), love the character, and omg lea's voice!! eponine is such a strong, passionate, sad but ultimately hopeful character... can't help bawling every time i watch her die in marius's arms, happy at last... *sigh*!!

[schmaxie10]

One of my ALL TIME FAVORITE SHOW TUNES-- LEA IS BRILLIANT :)

[aton87]

this is so far the most clear and beautiful version of her for On MY Own i like this better than her version on the dreamcast concert cus here her voice is just ride on...

[Disney69]

Thanks for the comment! I just gave it another listen and your right it does sound really good!! LOL!! I do love her version from the anniversary concert. I wish they would do one for Miss Saigon...NOW!!

[mydear4ever]

ahhh..i love this song! bravo Lea!

[payuan01]

I love this song. very good singer rather excellent singer.

[mysonjoma]

Brilliant voice... brilliant talent!

[diamonddonut]

you know people why you all like her voice??

it's because there is no complexity she is singing simple notes and everything simple in this whole life is the best of them all.

[wirsindhelden0]

haha i don't even understand this. maybe i'm the simple one lol!...but i think it might be the fact that the end of the last sentence has no structure at all. lea is one of the most talented singers of her type out there. the notes she sings may be simple, but the feeling she puts into them are complex. it's actually a simple concept if you think about it. you could recite a simple, monotone sentence but if you really MEAN it and FEEL the words, everyone else can too.

[diamonddonut]

i mean living simple is the best. singing simple is part of it too :). check whitney she sings nice but not simple so it will never be a situation that you want to listen to her while you want peace or trying to sleep unless you're an alien. :)

[eddy190783]

1 of the best singers ive ever heard, her voice is crystal clear!!! brilliant

[Yourwillbdone]

Her voice is so amazing.:D

[jarsiberr]

lea salonga is amazing, a credit to the show, and every note is perfect!

wow, her voice!

[bling2coladudette]

i'm proud to be Filipino and she's not like other singers its like when she sings its like she's singing her whole heart out

[gallovesmusic]

just think it's bin 13 years since she doing this on the concert!! wow you can't tell! she is amazing!!!!!

[aleakimkeanu]

when lea sings, it comes from the heart, clear diction! she is amazing, she's not screaming or what ever! don't compare her to anybody else. her voice is for listening pleasure! we love you lea, we watched your concert in san manuel, may sakit ka pa noon pero nakaya mo par in iba ka talaga!. thanks for uploading this video

[Dean814]

I love the clarity of her voice. It's like crystal clear. It's a pleasure to listen to her. Most singers now, groan and do this annoying growl or worse, mumble the words,while singing, but with Lea a listener can understand what she's singing.

This is not my favorite of her performances though. Her rendition of On My Own during the Les Mis anniversary concert is the best. I think videos of that performance are posted here on YouTube.

[JulianneOliveira]

She's my favorite Eponine! In my opinion, of course...

[maraaortega]

amazing :D

i'm proud to be filipino

[retailtheraphy]

love this..lea is d best

[imagineoceans]

she's amazing!

this is my fave song from Les Miserables.

=D

[Phanatic24601]

I think Francis Ruffelle is the best Eponine ever. Lea is still really really good though.

[goody1shoe]

agree. lea is great but she is not the best singer in the world. she's only one of the best singers in the world but not the best. her voice is not round compare to katharine mcphee, a. franklin, etc

[na18oux]

lol please never compare Lea Salonga to Katharine McPhee again.

thanks.

[shadaxsolstice]

Did you really just mention Lea and Katharine McPhee in the same sentence? For shame.

[miranda24rules]

she really feels the song and she understands it.... maybe she had a time in her life whih this song can relate 2 . This is such a deep song, thats why its my favorite....especially when lea sings it. She is my idol!

[Disney69]

This was back in October 2006 in Chicago.

[ginoo25]

what a voice! ganda mo lea!

[artstudiescritic]

Grabe!!! Ang nag-iisang tunay na Diva ng Pilipinas!!! Ms. Lea Salonga you have been someone I look up to in almost all aspects of my life.

[junebugmeg]

wow, she, uh, really like emphasizing the "rrrr" sound doesn't she

[hdlover23]

no,not really..it just happens that on my own has "forever and forever" that you have to hold "rrrr" in forever

[Tetiktetik]

Flawless.

[NikitaItaPita]

she is the best Eponine I have heard. She is amazing, and she was the first Eponine I heard, so now I don't really like anyone else playing that part but her :)

[jambeetle]

Lea's voice is very clear with a good diction and pronunciation...Shes' the best!

[raymonda100]

Her rendition is the first time I've ever understood the lyrics. I wish more singers would understand that the lyrics are as important as the melody.

[Samar88]

Oh I'm sorry!!!!!!!!! I'm so sorry.... Actually her voice is incredible.. I realised that her voice is beauty n I'm so sorry..

[xXpNoiFrMdAeSoXx]

just because samar cant sing for shit,,hes probably a NGO NGO,,for all u pinoys out there,,u know what that means,,lol,

[namyr3]

Are you fucking crazy Samar88?!

[ahopelessdreamer]

God I used to sing this song when I was a kid! Had forgotten this song! She does it much better than me ;p Fantastic singer, very clear.

[eevilduckee2]

Her notes are so clear.

She's so wonderful.

=]

[Samar88]

I'm sorry!! but 4 me, she is nothing!!!

[Goldylover5]

NOTHING! She's something, and ur just a hater!

[ralmasol]

samar88 said it was a very very bad song, I wonder if what he/she only hears in australia are frogs singing in the rain....???? sorry to know that you cannot appreciate good song interpretations...

[andreiliver]

very bad song?.....yeah, for deaf people and to music illiterates.....but for the rest of us normal people, this version is just wonderful......

[Samar88]

Very very bad song I ever heard!!!

[Goldylover5]

Hey hooker, I don't know who you think you are but when and if I find you, I'm gonna kick you butt. She is BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!! Samar88 you deaf as Hellen Keller's pimp.

[beastboy2007]

Hooker? XD I'm gonna start sprinkling that word in at random times now.

[Starlet21]

AMAZING as usual!

[MuskokaGirl]

She makes this song sound SO easy!! But it really isn't...you could kill yourself trying to sing it. Death by Broadway xP Bravo Lea!! Your My idol.

[durian4eva]

wow the best talaga!!!i really love lea..sana magshow ka dito sa las vegas..plssss

[nexypointy]

She looks so sweet. Fuckin hell she's the best..

[Presguy]

She is also one of the NICEST superstars I've met. When I asked her to sign before the show, she said "Of course!", and after the show, she signs longer than anyone else in the cast!

[hawaii1628]

No one sing this song better than her

[januaryeleven]

i melt when i hear her voice...love her love her!

[tricyclemint]

It's amazing that, she's obviously not wearing her Eponine costume and she's far away from the Les Miserables stage but she can completely slip into character and feel what Eponine feels.

[msvague]

simply amazing! awesome performance!

[girly5692]

wow, i love this ...boradway music is sooo my thing

[oldnomeds]

I love the way she sings; and this song is really touching :'( it makes me want to cry out of happiness for some reason. I love Lea Salongs; her voice is ammazing; thanks soo much for uploading the video.

[spoliarium98]

walang kupas! effortless!

[rinapraval]

wow, this version's even better than her previous performances. her voice get's better and better! love her!

[barnzy1987]

i think this is one of the best versions of the song

[missmystery24]

i held my breath there for a little bit... ;)

[ginohhh]

nice belt. she'd make a good elphie.

[dannya1209]

i got the chills.... so good.

[rcalauor]

The audio is great. Thanks.

[Presguy]

LEA IS RETURNING TO LES MIZ IN MARCH!!! This time as Fantine!

[oOThomasOo]

Is she?? :D:D Then I have to go and see it! New York or London? (please say London)

[Presguy]

Sorry - It's Broadway.

[oOThomasOo]

oh :( I still hope that she will do it someday! then I can go and see her :)

[Presguy]

After Les Miz, she is doing an international tour of "Cinderella" in 2008, but so far only stops in the Philippines and Asia have been announced.

[irisdc88]

this was nice. she was more relaxed in this performance.

[Presguy]

UNREAL !!!!

[andrecalizo]

Midge - you're right, but try to listen to her previous concerts where she was accompanied by a full orchestra - fantastic!

[Midge93]

I think on the more powerful parts, perhaps the music could've been louder, but was amazingggg!

[vingt20cent]

I'm LOVING her "known!" I like this version better than her "10 Year Les Miz" version.

[ed10908]

I agree! Her voice in this one is like as if her voice is sang when she was only 16 or 17 yet powerful

[Naushie]

Dude, this is from Les Miserables...I LOVE THAT MUSICAL! She did so well!

[whizheart08102006]

This is my favorite lea Salonga song... I LOVE HER!!
