Wow, he does an incredible job with this song, just amazing! ❤
This is the most amazing performance I have ever heard. His voice, and the piano accompaniment are just out of this world.
Haunting, especially in these very difficult times.
His performance moved me to tears. I can't believe that such a young boy can express such pain, wistfulness and regret with a song - he is truly angelic!
Quelle magnifique interprétation de l'un des passages les plus émouvants de la comédie musicale Les misérables.
This song has nothing to do with Covid. It talks of the death of children and war. This has to be the most beautiful song I've heard. This boy sings like an angel.
As in…right now. 😢😢
Yes this annoyed me too. 2:00
This song is about people bound together by a cause and an idsal, a cause that died with all of his friends that day.
It's from "Les Misérables". "Les Misérables" is a novel by Victor Hugo and also a Musical. It has been written to raise awareness about injustices such as poverty, tyranny, oppression etc.
The song from the Musical is sung by a young man, named Marius Pontmercy, who was (more or less) part of a group of young students, known as "les amis de l'ABC". These young students fought in the june uprising of 1832 for democracy and wished to end the oppression of their fellow men. All of the students die for their cause, shot and stabbed by the national guard - except Marius. Marius now is all alone, feels intense survivor's guilt and mourns his friends. This is what this song is about.
I love that they were able, with grace and tenderness, to pluck this song from its original context and so artfully extend the breadth and length of its meaning. In this performance it wears such an emotionally impactful timeliness to contemporary global events. His voice is beyond astounding. This re-imagining is heartbreakingly beautiful. I've listened and I've cried many times.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏@@katzenkind6835
I have listened to all the versions by lots of people and this is the very BEST. Perfect dictions, a voice like a musical instrument, every note hit perfectly.
You should listen to Jonathan Antoine versión.
I totally agree. My favorite version BY FAR!!
I think that this song has to be a warning for us all. We need peace all over the world 😍❤️
His version is hauntingly beautiful.
Both the singing and piano.
His Voice Gives Me Goosebumps, an Old Soul in a Little Boys Body ❤
I have listened to many of the songs that he has sung, His voice is absolutely beautiful and amazing. Such A Brilliant young man
One of my favourite songs from my favourite Musical Theatre show. Beautifully performed.
Tears in my eyes and ache in my heart. Just retired from a lifetimen in nursing, this hit me hard.
may peace be with you
I can just start imagining how many lives you have touched.
Carmac.....This is still your masterpiece! I have listened to your magnificent mastery of this song over and over. And your pianist is equally amazing!!! God bless you for sharing your talent with me. Bonnie in Indianapolis ❤
Empty Chairs at Empty Tables
There's a grief that can't be spoken
There's a pain goes on and on
Empty chairs at empty tables
Now my friends are dead and gone
Here they talked of revolution
Here it was they lit the flame
Here they sang about tomorrow
And tomorrow never came
From the table in the corner
They could see a world reborn
And they rose with voices ringing
And I can hear them now!
The very words that they had sung
Became their last communion
On this lonely barricade
At dawn
Oh my friends, my friends forgive me
That I live and you are gone
There's a grief that can't be spoken
There's a pain goes on and on
Phantom faces at the window
Phantom shadows on the floor
Empty chairs at empty tables
Where my friends will meet no more
Oh my friends, my friends
Don't ask me what your sacrifice was for
Empty chairs at empty tables
Where my friends will sing no more
Thank you for the words.
I'm listening to the haunting, angelic voice of Cormac Thompson and I can't believe that so young a person is able to express such wistfulness, sorrow and regret with a song...I must confess he moved me to tears. I do hope he continues his singing career and also makes more CDs. I found only one and to my utter regret it does not contain this song....
Hello - thank you for your kind message - good news I will be releasing a new CD with all my latest songs (and some new) later this year (2023). I will be providing details via my channel and socials etc 😀❤
This is the sound from heaven !!
Perfection 🤩 hit every nerve ending in the perfect way. So humbling being able to listen such talent 🌼🌸🌺

Inteligent message that song bring to me.
Thank you.

Great song from the musical Les Miz. He had such a beautiful pure voice.

That is why they changed it to reference the Covid pandemic which is a lived experience for a child.

❤❤❤❤❤
I heard about this from your podcast..... Your voice is strong and powerful and getting better with every month. I think it would be good to go back and sing these again. This time with more voice and less piano. The sound needs to match. Therefore pounding keyboards and high voices are clashing. Again.
did it happen in real life?
what is the story about?😮😢
🤍
Sad song he put ray j and them to shame lol
Free palestine
Absolutely no
Brilliant technical rendition for a kid his age. My only issue is the same as any time I hear a kid do a rendition of an adult song. He doesn't have the maturity for the topic of the song.
This song is about the survivor of the Two Day Revolution looking at his old meeting place and remembering the friends who died at the wall. This song is supposed to be filled with his grief for his loss, his anger for the failure, and his disappointment that his friends died for nothing. A child doesn't have the emotional experience to sell that part of the content.
Amazing
Bravo 🌹.
❤❤❤❤❤
