Songs From A Suitcase
Well OF COURSE the Eponine was singing perfectly ! She's Samantha freaking Barks, she's played the part in the West end show :D
She's gorgeous to boot.
Samantha Barks is a real life Goddesss. You could put her in any musical, even freaking Cats, and she would be absoultly amazing!
Eddie Redmayne is the one with the green jumper. And the one with the hat...well he did not sing much in this song but he is broadway legend Aaron Tveit!
Love Enjolras! Marius eh
i've been hoping she'd get to aaron one of these days, with this, i guess i'll take it 😅
Aaron is soo amazing his soch a good singer and actor i love him so match
I was surprised you didn't comment on Enjolras, Aaron Tveit, the one with the hat.
He absolutely smashed it in my opinion
I actually thought you were about to comment on Aaron Tveit....that would've been such a huge treat to us broadway geeks! Aaron's got tons of concert videos. His rendition of "Marry me a Little" or "Being Alive" from Sondheim is worth reacting to! Please consider doing that, thanks!
Thank you for saying this @Sps27! I share the same thoughts and good song choices! Thought the vocal coach was gonna comment on Broadway veteran, Aaron Tveit! He’s clearly one of the best singers in this group and deserves a review of his own! Any concert he’s done is worth reviewing. Check out “One Song Glory” from RENT and “Che Gelida Manila” from La Boheme where he sings in Italian.
Everyone's hating on Russel but the way he performed 'Stars' is wonderful to me
Eddie Redmayne's "Empty Chairs" in the movie version absolutely destroyed me. I haven't been able to see any of these amazing shows on stage (too far, and too expensive) so the movie versions have been a real gift to me, and others like me.
Watch the 10th and 25th anniversary performance, both are far superior to the movie
This was their rehearsal for the Oscars 2013. Should react to that performance to see before and after. Jennifer Hudson sang her song from dreamgirls right before them and stole the show and the cast of les mis did an awesome job.
You can TOTALLY tell who the professional Broadway singers are :P Love this video, such a great look behind the scenes ❤
I love Eddie Redmayne's voice! He's a brilliant actor and I think he was an amazing casting choice
If you like kermit the frog lol
7:22 i thought you were about to talk abt aaron but oop, eddie was pretty good too doe
I adored Hugh as Valjean but am I the only one who low-key feels like he’d be an even better Javert?
I have to recommend the anniversary performances over the movie cast. Lea Salonga "On My Own " or the "Little Fall of Rain" duet
There's an interesting video assay on this done by the channel "sideways" and he points out some amazing behind the scene details about the clashes behind the visual vision for this and the audio vision for this (like Anne Hathaway choosing to cry during her performance for visual affects, as well as her laying down while filming and also singing for 10 hours straight that definitely affected the end musical result)
Also, that's Samantha Barks playing Eponine you pointed out - and she also portaried her on stage, in the 25th Anniversary concert for Les Mis, so yeah, she can sing 😆
Here's the Sideways video:
th-cam.com/video/1ikqU6G6Xgs/w-d-xo.html
Oh man I'd love to you see you react to Aaron Tveit singing. He's so good 😍
Samantha Banks played eponine in the anniversary concert in London 2010 before the movie, I have that DVD and that concert is so effing good. Nick Jonas played Marius there. He played the little kid when he was like 7-8, so full circle moment there 🤧❤. I love Hugh Jackman, his show he did last year was so good for what I've seen. He sang songs from les mis, the greatest showman and other musicals and stuff. He was supposed to do the Latin America leg of the tour before covid ruined everything 😭
I don’t like Nick Jonas in the 25ac concert tho. He is good with pop but I just don’t think his style fits the musical. He’s just not the strongest classical singer compared to everyone else.
@@mushroomnerd9772 nick jonas was great in it, he was classical trained since he was 7 years old. He started on Broadway, his tone might have changed because he spent years doing other type of music in between being a broadway kid and going back to it at 17-18 bit for that role he was great
@@NineAnutza i get the “full cycle” thing. Ariana Grande did the same sort of thing(going into pop after bway), but her “the wizard and I” was still out of the world. She made sure to sing clearly and I can understand every word she says (but not her pop songs). Acting wise I don’t think Nick is the greatest among so many west end and broadway legends either. Especially his empty chairs at empty tables just doesn’t give me the same chills compared to Michael Ball’s. You can see he is struggling with some notes and breathe control. Respect your opinion tho. I love his music, and he is a great singer, I just don’t think his “pop-py” sound fits well with the rest of the cast and the tone of the show. Same goes with Amanda Seyfried in the movie. I didn’t enjoy her singing, but I love her as an actress. I agree with how great Hugh Jackman and especially Samatha Barks are. I think her Eponine is definitely up there, probably on par with Lea Salonga’s. Her acting is great in both. And recently seeing her sing Let it Go as Elsa was sweet cuz it feels like Eponine letting go of Marius and becoming her own brilliant self. Sorry for rambling, but here’s my two cents. Have a great day!
I was just about the bring up that samantha already had plenty of experience as eponine. I though nick jonas did a pretty great job as Marius especially compared to the kermit the frog that eddie redmane did.
The main reason I do not like the 25th anniversary production is because of Nick Jonas. He should have NEVER been cast as Marius. His performance was flat and disconnected. "A little fall of rain" is an amazing duet. Samantha was great, but Nick was just awful. He might be Broadway trained and all, but they really missed the ball casting him as Marius.
I can kinda of get the "full circle" moment by casting him, but he should have been one of the students (Enjoras perhaps?). A great "full circle" moment was bringing Colm Wilkinson (the original valjean) back as the monsignor of the abby.
Omg please please react to Aaron Tveit!! I feel like you'd LOVE him as much as us theater kids do. He's the hat guy recording in the back! Their actual performance at the Oscars is amazing, but he also has tons of videos of concerts, and performings of Moulin Rouge! The musical, and other projects he's been on
Fyi this particular rehearsal was their live performance at the Oscars
I actually liked Russell Crowe's performance because it is out of his norm. I liken it to Bradley Cooper and Joaquin Phoenix because I don't put any of these actors on a list of being singers and good for him to get out of his comfort zone. There's an interview with Hugh Jackman saying that singing for this movie, the actors maintained the tempo unlike a stage show where the actor has to keep up with the music.
Bradley Cooper sounded great. Crowe, not so much.
It’s actually not out of his norm. He has his own band and has sung lead in that for 15 yrs now.
@@mamabear1135 I think this style of music is outside of his norm, though. I can't help but wonder if he felt at all awkward among all these people who obviously trained as singers. Russell is mostly self taught actor if I remember correctly. I actually liked him in the role but there were a few times I kind of cringed. His acting part was perfection, though:)
@@filmsenseii watched an interview with Russell on this role, apparently initially he wasn’t interested, but did a lot of research on the character, apparently Javert and Valjean are based on the same person, who actually existed. He really resonated with the person so accepted the part, his understanding and emotion’s really show through
I'm a bit late for this but this is their rehearsal for their Oscars' performance.
This was rehearsal for the Oscars performance... not for the movie. The film was done already, no?
Russel Crowe has a history of musical theatre in Australia and New Zealand
As for tempo - this is sped up so I dont blame him or anyone looking at conductor
they really put that arpeggio on for like a full minute only to start a different song
People hate on the way Russel performed in the movie but I personally think it fit kind of well with the type of character Javert is, very rigid and straight to the point, like yeah vocally it wasn't AMAZING but it fit the character
Russell backstory is pretty interesting. How he was trying to keep up to speed and on the beat and then at the end just gave up and/or didn't care at all and stopped singing. Which is just sad.
7:22 He's an Oscar winner Eddie freakin' Redmayne
Les Miz is pronounced “lay Miz” not “luh Miz”.
Thank you. That was getting on my nerves.
this was the rehearsal for the oscars
Can you do empty chairs at empty tables from the movie?? That one really shows Eddie Redmayne’s vocal chops!
+Ashley T oh that makes me cry like a baby!
You should react to the 10th anniversary show version
I love listening to Samantha Barks she's amazing. ❤
All actors and singers have their own way! I loved every take was sung live for days and days! I am surprised any of them had a voice left! It is Eddie Redmayne
I thought this reaction was a few months ago , but just have like 50 minutes , love this channel
maybe it was bring him home or on my own that you saw?
Was that Sacha Baron Cohen?! (BORAT?!!😳)
Are we just gonna ignore that Borat was messing around filming them on his phone? Lol 😎
Love it, I fucking knew it, the moment Samantha Barks start signing you would stop the video right away in awe. She was the best in the whole movie imo
Boy, you can really tell this was pre-covid. So many people in such a small room and no masks. Miss those days.
Actually Russel Crow is ahead of everyone in this recording, but some good tips
It’s midnight. I only stay up for your videos ❤️✨
Aw that’s so sweet! ❤️❤️ Stoked you’re enjoying my vids
@@SongsFromASuitcase ☺️❤️❤️
I think this was a rehearsal for the singing they had on the Oscars gala. (Excuse me if my English isnt clear). Anyway, great great song and singers.
"Tomorrow we'll discover what our God in Heaven has in store" cue the water works. It gets me every single time. 😄
Russel Crowe was possibly one of the best cast people, I love Hugh Jackman, but badly cast for this, Russell really researched his part, and it shows in his emotions, the emotions can cover many deficiencies in the singing.
Now, if they had sung like this in the movie it wouldn't have been as bad!
Behind the scenes there was a lot of bad choices that let to subpar vocal performances in the movie.
For example, Hugh Jackman was starving and dehydrating himself so he would look emaciated, but both of those things also destroyed his vocal cords. He sounded terrible compared to what he's capable of.
Anne Hathaway did something like 20 takes of her solo, sobbing every time. Stage performers know not to cry that much and create that much mucus because it just kills your vocals. Doing it for 20 takes? Good grief....
Better choices would have lead to better performances.
Totally agree! I thoroughly enjoy Eddie Redmayne's singing. He's got such a graceful voice and he sure as hell knows how to use it. Don't ever understand where that Kermit frog thing comes from.
Z Zh💜🎶🎶💜
You should react to more Samantha Barks. I love her voice

When did you see the musical in London? I was lucky enough to see the 25th anniversary in 2010 actually my first musical experience and it changed my perspective of music and the performing arts so much and you are right it is such an emotional and incredible experience.
+Andreas Klausen it was about 12 years ago but I could be off by a year or two. So like 2008 ish? Sadly I’ve never kept the playbills for the shows I went to. Just never thought I would want them for Refference...little did I know!
Never seen this before. Amazing!
Can you do in my life from les mis?
The movie
Or popular from aaron tveit?
Hearing your reaction as a vocal coach to Hugh J.’s JVJ, I am very surprised. Maybe it’s the music educator in me but I can’t ever recommend his singing in Les Mis to my kids. It’s pitchy, not well placed, and you can hear him straining badly at times.
I was recommended to your channel by one of my kiddos and I believe you are one of the good vocal TH-cam coaches (and there are not many good ones) who give sound, healthy advice for singers.
But in this case, and in this roll, the music is simply to big for Hugh and it shows. His performance in Oklahoma was much more in his singing ability and it translated to how well he did in comparison.
Eponine is my favorite.
Still with the Queen snub ?? You are hurting my soul teacher!
I’m dying inside
I Russel has the great gritty and cruel feel of Javert and in the movie he did great but I think that in the promotions and in the live shows after the movie he just wasn’t there
Someone said not long after this movie came out, that Russell Crow didn't get as much training as the other cast members.
Almost everyone cast had some singing experience before, at least I think they did. Helena Bowman Carter is the best, she just seems to be messing around with fellow cast members and having fun!
I've never seen it live, I've seen some youtube videos, so I don't have anything to compare it to. I've seen RENT live and the movie version, both of which are great. I've also seen Phantom live and the movie, live is so much better! Jesus Christ Superstar was another one that was good for both the movie and live. Maybe you could do something from RENT "Take Me Or Leave Me" or "Out Tonight"?
7:36 The word you're thinking of is "organic"
LOL thank u ♥️
How would I go about requesting or seeing if you'd be interested in checking out songs to react to? I would love to see you break down the technique and what the singer is doing also if she is even doing the right things.

Just so good..
I don't know if this is true and I have no sources nor have I ever confirmed this, but I heard that Russel Crowe had actually been a pretty great singer, but after they casted him as Javert, decided he needed a bit more coaching but apparently, this only succeeded in making him slightly worse. This could all be totally made up though, but thought it might be worth mentioning. Idk guys.
Eddie is an excellent actor and a good singer and he brings those skills here to give the edge you are speaking to. Aaron is a strong broadway performer, not as experienced an actor and you can see the difference in their styles. As for Russell, as Cam often joked on Modern Family - Russell Crowe was terribly miscast!
Ah, the good old times when they hired singers to do movie musicals!
Stephen Brooker is the MD. He’s usually very strict. He’s behind all the Les Mis stage shows. And he really had to help Russell a lot. You can tell the rest know what to do. Even if it was 2013. I would have had another Javert. Even someone from theater, Broadway or West. Prefer the theater version. The film didn’t work for me. Cutting heads to ‘prove’ they sang live. Watch the 10th anniversary concert. Best version ever IMO! They show how to sing live and in time.
th-cam.com/video/0c2sx47p31M/w-d-xo.html
I think Crowe did better at the performance of this song at the 2013 Oscars
Pleeeease reaction to James Borden’s Carpool Karoke version of this song with Lin Manuel Miranada!!!!
have you ever watched the movie?
I have! We're gonna do a live Watch party here on TH-cam for Les Mis next, next week as well.
@@SongsFromASuitcase yesss!! so excited!
Who is that? That would be Best Actor Oscar Winner Eddie Redmayne. Nice analysis. Thanks.
I also saw the show in London, and several performances by touring companies through the years. The movie wowed me! And I especially loved Hugh, Anne, and Eddie! I found the singing voice of Cosette to be distracting and Russell’s performance wonderfully stiff and wooden, which was a not improbable portrayal of Javert. Overall I thought the movie was a triumph!
Have you ever looked at "flash mob" versions of songs? Both th-cam.com/video/Cn8PiqIXEjQ/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/D1QtEC5oBX4/w-d-xo.html are excellent versions of One Day More. The second one even includes Do You Hear the People Sing. I now they are professional musical theater artists, but the way they hide in the crowd until they start singing is fun to watch to see which passerby will start singing next.
Just one tip, you keep saying 'Le Mis' but it should be 'Les Mis' (pronounced Lay Miz). It's plural. Many miserable people instead of one miserable person, ha ha. Love your videos and your extensive knowledge of vocal styles and techniques!
So apparently, Russell had three different voice coaches
I forgot all these actors were in it lol. I just remembered Hugh and Anne.
I don’t know if you watched this clip already but if not you should watch this is me from the greatest showman. The rehearsal. It’s awesome.

Russell Crowe is an amazing vocalist and started in musical theatre. He is a cop he is ment to sound gritty and dirty
Kate Bignell✨🥰🥰✨
"Lah miz"
I guess Russel Crowe is the movie version of the Jonas kid who was in the 25th anniversary concert special. He voice was so weak and out classed. Really bad. As usual, a terrific breakdown. Stay safe and stay well. Enjoy your day. 😷😎✌🏻🤟🏻
Jackman's voice was already messed up by decades of weightlifting and speaking Australian, then he dehydrated for the film, so he ruins every scene for me. Glad I didn't see the movie in the theater. Cosette hits my ear like a siren (not good), Crowe is tolerable, but the others are very well cast.
Russell Crowe really brought this film down. It’s about a B- for me and if they had a different actor, any other actor that could sing for Javert it could have been so much better
I really do feel for Russell Crowe here, he’s just not suited to music theatre singing, but I think the film as a musical performance was pretty lacklustre anyway, his performance doesn’t really affect this for me. But I think hugh Jackman should have played javert tbh. He has the low timbre for the role and it would have given way for a talented performer like Alfie Boe/ Ramin Karimloo to take Valjean on.
Yeahh
He wasn't as bad as some other people make him out to be for me but honestly they could have probably gotten a better person for it... Like Hadley maybe-
Russel is not that good in singing but hes my favorite javert
Please react to Heathers ❤️
The guy beside Eddie Redmayne is Aaron Tveit, who has appeared in a number of Broadway musicals, including Next to Normal, Catch Me If You Can, and more recently the stage version of Moulin Rouge, as well as both seasons of Schmigadoon. Amanda Seyfried studied opera; Anne Hathaway's mother is an opera singer. Hugh Jackman played Curly in Oklahoma and Harold Hill in The Music Man; he won a Tony for portraying Peter Allen in The Boy From Oz. And Eddy Redmayne won the Olivier award for his Emcee in the 2021 revival in Cabaret. His Empty Chairs at Empty Tables, breaks my heart every time.
Actually you don't give your name!? Are you a suitcase?
eddie redmayne
STOP PAUSING but just play through first and then you break down the vocals PLEASE.
Love this video of them singing!! Great video to react to! I actually covered a song from this musical! It would be awesome if you could check it out! :)
I thought Anne Hathaway was a professional singer????
is it just me or does it bother anyone else when she pronounces "les mis" as "luh mis" and not "lay mis"
She has an occasional pronunciation error in her videos, but it just proves one of my mottos: No one can be absolutely great at everything--and she's a great singing teacher.
Russel Crowe ruined the role of Javert. It was like he didn't want the part.

Russell Crowe ruined the movie version for me. Javert is my favorite part and was no where near adequate
Same!! Russell Crowe is terrible!
Owww but he tried! 😢 In this video I find him so cute trying to be on tempo
"Lay" not "Luh" Miz. How could you not know that? It's been around for decades? Lay is the pronunciation for Les, which is plural; luh is the pronunciation for Le, which is singular. ARGH!!!! You don't have to know French to have heard this. My poor ears!!!
It’s actually more like „leh” miz. The „lay” is americenized version.
Yeah @zenderlee , you're clearly wrong here. The "Lay" pronunciation is just as bastardised as americans saying "crayp" when they mean "crêpe".
@@msvsvi It's difficult to write it out with the letters we have on an American keyboard. I lived in France. I know the difference between the two words. She was absolutely saying the singular "le," and that is wrong both grammatically and for the show. Period. I gave the best pronunciation I could without accents.
Why russel, why? Out of respect for the musical, and the fans of the musical, could you not have done the honorable thing and stepped aside.
