La Cour des miracles (English) - The court of the miracles

[PyroGothNerd]

Wow! This is way closer to the book than the Disney Version! Make it a movie!!!

[HighonBoots]

he is sharp!!!!!

[05kritty]

Poor Gringoire... I love when he say: See how love comes, just in time... (L)

[carlabellis]

I love this song!!! Wunderbarrr!!!

[anotheraxelfangirl]

Dude. Clopin is SO freaking creepy in this song, especially his laugh at the beginning. And not creepy in a good way. Creepy as in, "I'll be checking under my bed tonight to make sure he's not hiding down there waiting to eat me"

[Trancilian]

where is the audio from? It's not on the cd. bootleg?

[EsperonNDA]

really awful dub. too bad; the original is SO GOOD

[jumpdafence]

Shaaaaarp!

[LaMeyoDelColosseo]

I prefer the italian version

[kouklamou92]

ahh this version is the main problem. the french would still be better, but this is just not a good rendition.....

[3crazypets]

Everytime I watch this video I always get sad because Clopin dies in the end:(. Clopin rocked:(.,

[AnnamariaCiucci]

in english it's terrible!

i prefer the french and italian version

[mazsizsuzsi]

Not bad, but Luck Mervil is so much better

[Medusa0999]

Grine gawr? it's gringoire XD poor clopin is a bit confused lol

[babyes123]

blea è meglio ma molto meglio italiano

[bea0515]

french will always be more beautiful. they just can't make it so sound amazing. english is too harsh.

[Adirondaque]

Once you heard luck mervil... this is way too diluted...

Tina is amaziiiiiiiing! :D

[annony11]

Yes, the French version is more elegant, but that is just due to French being a more elegant language and because the music was originally written for the French lyrics. I think the translating lyricist did an amazing job with the whole show, so much better than other English translations of French musicals (Romeo et Juliette for example)

[xXYamatoXx]

...why didn't Luc Mervil do this one too??

[jozi53]

wow...he's way flat....

and this song is terrible translated.

....I think they should have spent more time make the lyrics elegant like they are in French.

[noticeme10]

Some of the words are very awkward and I don't much like the singing, but I do like how they tried to do an almost exact translation. That's very admirable!

[theweirdgirloverther]

I agree about the words being very akward, but allow me to say this in the english's defence. This show was only translated once for a temporary showing in Vegas. Does anyone really expect an honest effort to duplicate the beautiful flow that is in the french versian? In Vegas?

[Waterlilycat]

The play is also in English for London, I do believe.

[southafricaness76]

Yep, watch it there, great with Bruno, Tina Arena as Esmeralda and St.Pierre as Fleur de lys

[Mattbrain]

I gotta say it. When it comes to foreign musicals, hearing them in English kinda seems like cheating almost cuz let's face it, the French version sounds absolutely beautiful.

[LLMBC]

perfectement d'accord avec vs.

[Mattbrain]

I don't speak French but I'll take it as a compliment. So thanks.

[LLMBC]

You're welcome. I meant i'm totally agreed with you.

[harumomiji]

@Mattbrain

i thought the italian version was better than the french version..it had more emotion

[Mattbrain]

@harumomiji I've heard the Italian version since I made that comment and I definitely agree with you. Especially the Italian version of THIS song.

[brighttomorrows]

Definitely: French version is much better (Vive Luc Mervil!). It doesn't help that this is just the song in English set to the French vid, so the singer doesn't have the same resonnance.

[AquilaCat]

It's nice to hear it in English, but I do agree that the French version is better.

[QueenSupreme89]

"All the poets of France, from the rope should dance." The translation is SOOO weird here!

[SILLYbeesEntrtanemnt]

Its sounds grim, but he's referring how people shake when they are hung.

[Medmontreal]

Thanks for sharing the video. I agree with 83gemis, the singer is horrible at the beginning of the song. BRING BACK LUC MERVILL :P

[83gemis]

Oh, he starts completely out of tone!!!

[MarieLeah]

Clopin seems flat in the english version

[FrollosGypsy]

I totally <3 the dancing XD

[SuunFlower]

the frensh singers are way better!
