Hey y'all! Showtunes Summer is winding down, but I still got plenty of videos in the work ;) For this entry, I'm doing the classic piece from Les Mis, Empty Chairs at Empty Tables. A highly emotional piece and quite the difficult cover. I do hope y'all enjoyed it, and please please PLEASE stick around for all the epic covers I got coming ;) And if you're feeling extra kind, pledge to my channel at my Patreon page above!
Hello again everyone!!! I...am...so...EXCITED!!! AHHHHH! Tis the Summer once more and the sun is shining down on all of us :) (at least, for those of us here in the U.S. :3) I hope you are all ready for a dosage of brand new covers, because we got'em coming ALL. SUMMER. LONG! :D
That's right! Every week, there will be a NEW COVER to look forward too. From now until the end of Summer, tune in to see AT LEAST one new cover every seven days :) It's going to be an awesome Summer, and what better way to celebrate it than to do a series based off of one of my favorite loves, Showtunes~ That means everything ranging from old-school, musical theatre, to topical, modern Broadway hits will be up for possible cover-age ;) Want to know what I'm planning?

Have you ever been in a Broadway show? If not you should audition
HECK YEAH
I second this
This cover made me cry. I can imagine him dressed as Marius from the play and singing this song mournfully to himself, sitting in a dark corner table in an abandoned tavern before his cries of anguish and regret drive him screaming to his knees.
Your music is so good. Tear-jerking, emotional, and powerful. Wish my voice was that good, but alas.
ryaku5 thank you very much! It was definitely an emotional song to sing
+Caleb Hyles Ever thought about auditioning for a part in a musical?
I have a feeling you'd be very good at it.
+BloodWolf752 I believe he stated in a livestream that he's not very good at improvising his singing, in other words, he's not good with live stuff. (Still sounded good to me tbh) but I imagine he's more comfortable with studio recording kind of performances.
Calleeeeb you should sing stars you'd sound awesome
+Hadley Dyer™ yesyesyesyesyes
I need to hear him sing stars that would be so awesome
pokkopikku I agree
4 years since you commented this I'd die to hear him cover Stars
YES
There are so many Les Mis covers on RUclips that are frankly pedestrian versions by people with far more enthusiasm than talent. The vocals here are simply amazing - I can only imagine what you sound like with a decent orchestra behind you!
thank you for the recognition :)
the internet just became your own personal infinite stage man, that was heartwrenching...
Istvan Kakucsi wow, thank you :) That means a lot.
Caleb Hyles
Thank you for responding, i was expecting at least one month before you'd see the comment, if it's not too much for you i left you a comment in the discussion panel on your personal channel about a song that i believe would sound awesome covered by you, take a look at it if you have the time, thx again, keep being awesome man!
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'
But 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.
Thanks for the Lyrics
I clicked on this and I mumbled to myself, "Mr. Hyles, you'd BETTER make me cry with this song." and you did. Wonderful job sir, I got both chills and tears from this cover and that rarely happens. You did an amazing job!
I find that many singers can't do both musical and non-musical without one of them sounding like the other, but you are really great at both! (In my opinion, I'm obviously no expert.) I always get goosebumps when I hear you sing.
When he broke out in desperation with the line "my friends" my entire body got hit with chills. This song has always made me sad, but haring Caleb sing it, and seeing him gulp down his own tears...God, it actually made me cry
The feeling that you put into this is just incredible.
Nicky Cramer thank you!
It is quite appropriate to listen to this track, given the awful events in Paris. Thanks for this performance.
My God, You're voice gives me Life!
Need more support on Patreon and shares :3 - maybe I'll get there one day :D
Caleb Hyles don't forget us (your first supporters) when you do
Never have or will Hashim Ahmad
Caleb Hyles You are amazing! Your voice is so full of emotions and life. It is really a Joy to listen every time you do a new recording (I would personatly also love hearing your take on Do you Hear the people sing)
Actually crying and goosebumps. Holy crap Caleb
This is the version of this song I've always wanted! God this is incredible, every Marius I've ever seen has been just abit too whiney for me, but you nail this. God damn dude.
They need to design a love button for stuff like this. You are a rare talent sir, well done.
You have so much emotion in your voice. I could hear the pain of losing his friends in the revolution in your voice. Well done!
Caleb, you really capture Marius' pain in this - a crushing, terrible loss that words can't justify. Heartbreaking but wonderful, very well done.
oh man, i'm sorry, i know this was ages ago but it just blew me away. i'm doing an audition for a school talent show with this song and i've been watching different versions of it just to hear which sounds the best and yours is astounding. seriously, how are you so talented? keep rocking, dude!
My school chose Les Mis for the play last year. I went to see it twice because it was so incredible. ❤
Ah, good times~
Incredible cover! Your voice never ceases to impress!
Gosh Mr. Hyles your such a gifted singer... Your beyond impressive! Your flawless! Godly! I'm speechless your the best!
Thank you ***** :)
Caleb Hyles caleb please do another disney cover
Check my cover photo for my channel
Caleb Hyles Is there any chance you'd continue doing Les Mis? You'd do a kick ass "Stars". That or "Who am I."
I love Les Mis, so no worries, I have plans for it - just might be a little bit a wait :) hope you can stick around!
Your voice is amazing!
yes you should be marius pontmercy singing that song to be casted in Les Miz
Man. I gave you a constructive criticism on your Beauty and the Beast song that I didn't feel the pain of the Beast. I take that all back for this one. *applause* Great capture of the torment and loneliness in this one.
Thank you MCWestover :) greatly appreciate criticism and compliments! Thanks for sticking with me!
I happened to stumble upon your channel tonight. I was actually watching some of Pellek's stuff, when I saw your cover of Hellfire in the suggestion list. That being one of my favorite if not my favorite song from that movie, I automatically clicked it. And I was blown away. So I went to your channel and started browsing, and eventually saw this and... I don't even have words. Aside from the sheer beauty of your voice, to be able to convey THAT much emotion is a talent you rarely ever see. You, Sir, are AMAZING.
EmmaLee Grauman Wow! Thank you very very much, Emma :) I really appreciate your kind words, and I'm REALLY glad you're enjoying my covers :D Feel free to stick around for more! I'll be releasing some awesome stuff soon ;)
I love how you add the true raw emotions that this beautiful song deserves. I cannot stop listing to this version. Of all the versions I heard this one is by far one of my favourites.
You just filled my soul.
You are seriously the best Les Mis and Phantom singer I can find... I'm speechless. I've watched this at least 30 times and I can only sit here and envy your voice. Huge fan. You deserve to be a lot bigger than you are and I mean that.
Beautiful! Go on Broadway! :))
I have become a human goosebump
This guy is insanely good.
Thank you Robert Headley !! :)
I was actually hoping that you had done the confrontation from Les Mis. Would be a good song for you.
Nailin' the survivor's guilt vibe in this song...every damned note is riddled with pain and anguish...that touch of metal you added was just right...I mean, dude, "Les Mis" is edgy af.
Caleb is my favorite musical
Les miz
so much emotion in you covers, bro, it's beautiful...
One of my brothers was in a musical for this. He played the character who sings this. Thank you for reminding me of a good memory of him.
This is my favourite song from Les Mis - you definitely did it justice. Thanks again for a great performance!!
One of the best you have ever did, especially for the emotions in it! You are amazing *cries*
How did I miss this before!!! One of my favorites ♡
Okay... mind blown. You belong on Broadway!!
Goosebumps!
This is my favorite musical of all time and Caleb nails this song. Oh my God, beautiful, the emotion. No words.
Thank you Denise :)
I love this song. I have a kind of attachement to it, the lyrics remind me of a few things so this song is very touching for me. When I got online and saw that you have uploaded it I went like "oh god, Caleb is gonna kill me". You were amazing. Thank you for singing this :')
*hugs* :)

Amazing! You almost made me cry with this song, it has too many emotions just wow
One of my all time favorite songs. Beautifully sung!
Goosebumps right up my arms...
There is magic in your voice. The emotion I hear in this song brought tears to my eyes. I had to listen again right away. I hope you sing more songs like this.
Simply amazing I have no words, once again.
I can feel the pure emotion you've put in this song... Just fantastic!
Perfectly on point!

The passion in your voice is astounding. I'm laying here, eyes closed, able to feel the grief. Superb job!

Hi Caleb, I've watched many of your videos and absolutely loved every single one of them. Your passion for this is so evident. I get goosebumps every time I hear you sing. Please never stop singing and never stop being you. You, kind sir, are fabulous! I'm absolutely flabbergasted. This song in particular though.... there are no words to express how..... just wow! Speechless...... Please do more of Les Mis! I can't applaud you enough.
One of my favourite songs from Les Miserables! You sang this beautifully its so amazing
I came to watch this as soon as I heard about it, and of course, you didn't disappoint. I seriously don't think there's anything you can't do. I just KNEW you would do an amazing cover of this; your voice is so perfect for all these emotional songs. Thanks so much, you definitely made my dream come true!
The fact that you reply to nearly every comment and have over 100k subs makes you so special and unique. You have the most incredible voice Caleb! Keep up the amazing performances

ChrilleXDXD thank you! God bless you too :)
Your voice is amazing, Caleb. I sometimes have a hard time expressing my feelings, and listening and singing to your covers helps me vent them without just keeping everything in till I burst. Thank you, you are a very talented artist and can express emotions through music in a unique way.
You are incredible, keep up the great work!!
I swear. each video makes me love your voice more and more. Keep doing what you're doing, man!
My god.
That was marvelous.
Thank you for this.
A hail from Brazil.
I have heard this song many times before but this touched me on a new emotional level and made me cry. Beautiful work Caleb!
SO GOOD!!
caleb, this is so much better than the movie version. you're a great singer!
First time hearing him and by far the most moving rendition of this song. I was in tears at the end. Congratulations Mr. Hyles
To be honest, this is my favorite Empty Chairs at Empty Tables rendition online, really love it very much.
Awesome! You never cease to amaze me with your incredible voice :)
This is why I love your covers so much. The way you sing is so full of expression I can't help but get moved. This made me cry. The best cover I've seen so far. :')
Loved it.
Omg you made me cry... so much emotions, well done!
Absolutely brilliant rendition! I love this style for you, it suits you and your voice perfectly. Your tone is pitch perfect, never falters, the emotion and delivery always outstanding and this was superbly enjoyable. More epic covers please, let your talent shine out Caleb Hyles
this is beautiful caleb,good job
This is the best version I have ever heard. I have never heard such emotion.
A wonderful tribute to one of the greatest musicals to ever grace Broadway. I loved the emotion, and unlike some who have done this piece, you maintained the musicality as well. Masterfully done, and i can't wait to hear more!
Best version i ever heard of the song, Really great job!
I have been listening to so many versions of this song, preparing to sing it myself. This is, by far, the best I have heard. Bravo, good sir. Bravo!
You're so good! You have a great voice, while more theatrical than emotional it was an immensely good listen!
i get chills *_*
Oh....my....Ryuk. I can`t even......amazing as always!
Beautiful
you have one of the most passionate, emotional voices I've ever heard, and your version of this song made me cry so hard. Absoulutely beautiful and haunting
you really put a lot of emotion in that, it really got me!
Everytime I find a new Caleb cover despite the age it’s amazing
I've been catching up on Show tunes Summer, last I'd seen uploaded was Music of the Night, and I've enjoyed every second of it. Every subsequent video just gets better and better. Thanks Caleb for all your hard work!
I love your voice! Its just so warm and hair-raising at the same time
Absolutely amazing. I sang this song my Sophomore year of High School for Solo/Ensemble competition and it made me all nostalgic. You did the song justice and I can't wait to hear what else you put out!
Absolutely amazing :)
THIS IS AMAZING
Dude, seriously. It is the first video I see of you, and what was that? You have an incredible strong voice and yet soft to the ears. I would say this is the best version I've ever heard of the song. Excellent interpretation too. Congratulations! It was simply amazing!
Makes me wanna watch les mis now!!
