  • @annief31 LOL! Next time, fans of "career-less has-beens" should refrain from mentioning creatures beneath Salonga in videos that are not about these untalented, "wooden" performers, ha ha ha...

  • @LtsSng1: What a fitting description of Ruthie Henshall's voice: MATRONLY (totally inappropriate for Fantine's characterization). Henshall has a rough, ugly voice and her 10th anniv "acting" was as wooden as a tree. It's no wonder that being a career-less now, Henshall has been described by posters as a "domestic starlet has-been," esp. compared to her UK counterpart international sensation Susan Boyle.

  • Luxray bingo. I could not have said it better. Ruthe has a quality to her voice a matronly lovely edge to her voice that makes her unique for this role. In my opinion after the 10th reunion this show should have never again been presented. You can't improve on the best-don't try.

  • Her voice is so beautiful...everything she touches (or sings :)) turns to gold

  • Indeed, it's amazing to see how Salonga has grown into the role of Fantine: from this moment prior to her Broadway stint (she had just started studying Hugo's book thoroughly), to Les Mis' anniversary where Salonga's informed and spectacular performance showed her ACTING AND VOCAL SUPERIORITY over the great Patti Lupone and the much-overrated Ruthie Henshall. It's no suprise that theatre critics have dubbed Salonga The Legendary Fantine!

  • It is STUPID to compare a single outing of this song in a generic concert with Ruthie's performance in character on stage. Lea Salonga's performance at the Les MIz 25th anniversary in October 2010 shows HOW MUCH BETTER she is than ALL ACTORS COMBINED who have ever played Fantine - in terms of voice, every nuance of emotion, diction, and particularly stage presence. Salonga was -- and remains -- the best Eponine, but now adds BEST FANTINE EVER to her credentials.

  • She is singing a realistic lyric with an oriental emotion. Filipino singers cannot avoid this singing style. That includes Lea.

  • the best performance I've heard
