  • I was looking for this little tune on RUclips and no one uploaded a high quality version so I did.
    Lyrics I stole from the fandom (lesmiserables....
    Javert:
    Please know me as Javert
    I'm here at your command
    With honour due to each
    And justice in our hands
    No man's beyond our reach
    Let all beware
    Valjean:
    Welcome Sir, come guard our laws
    I'm sure we're here in common cause
    Javert:
    You've done the city proud
    You're praised by those on high
    Your success has earned a force
    The best that Paris can supply
    Your people thrive
    Valjean:
    The dignity of toil to stay alive
    Javert:
    It seems to me we may have met
    Valjean:
    Your face is not a face I would forget

    This is the only time we see this side of Javert. Around someone with a spotless reputation, he's humble, polite--even friendly. Ideally, he's kind; it's just lawbreakers harden him. The tragedy is that under different circumstances, he and Valjean could've been friends. We see here that when there's no loaf of bread or parole-breaking, Valjean is _exactly_ the kind of man Javert respects.

    Just think what it be like… you have a very successful life, your happy, you have the respect of everyone and a man from your past who can take it all alway from you in standing right there and you are just praying he does not recognize you…

    Les Misérables is a story about integrity. Jean Valjean shows it over and over. He gets impossible dilemmas, and he (after the scene with the bishop) chooses to do the right thing time after time. But the story questions right and wrong by showing us the right thing is not always what you would think. The other character that shows equally much integrity as Valjean, is Javert. Except he has based his life on following the law, with no concerns about the actual people affected by it.

    Correction, this song actually appeared in the original 1980 version but was cut in 1981 because this scene had a musical number where Valjean expresses his backstory, which we see in the beginning of the one that came out in 1981.

      I think it is in purpose. It alludes to Valjean desperately trying to put a façade to Javert

    Veljean got greedy running for mayor. Dont want to draw attention to yourself when you're a convict on the run. Dude should have run to another country and left France behind.
