- Les sigh. Eponine breaks my heart every single time... but oh how I love her... & this song. This one's near & dear to my heart. My father gave me the original cast recordings on TAPE (haha) of Les Mis when I was in elementary school & this is the song that always grabbed me. When I turned 13, he & my mom took me to see a Broadway Theater League production of Les Mis & I was officially hooked. Eponine has always been my dream role, so I hope you enjoy this as much as I did recording it!

The friend zone has never sounded so majestic.
this comment is amazing hahaha
OMG right?
😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Damn I honestly don't even know why I'm crying😂😂😂 because this song be so emotional or because I'm laughing at this comment
I have no words. You did this PERFECTLY!
The real kicker about Eponine's situation is that she never truly loved Marius. What she loved was an idea that he represented. And she KNOWS this, but she clings to her "love" for him despite being fully aware that it's false because she feels that it's the only thing she has that's worth living for.
To quote Aragorn from Lord Of The Rings: "It is but a shadow, and a thought that you love."
Eponine truly is the most tragic love story in all of Les Mis.
NeverKnew Masquerade I don’t see how that holds a candle to Fantine and Tholomyés
@@jennadanler it is a matter of opinion. I can respect that.
I can definitely tell that you’ve listened to this song a million times and put a lot of thought into it, because your version sounds different than any other I’ve heard before. I can catch influences of other performances but it’s really your own. Beautiful
* Petition for Brittany to be cast as Eponine immediately *
Yes
You're amazing 🙏
My favourite Musical! So perfectly done! Thank you
On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him till morning
Without him
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way I close my eyes
And he has found me
In the rain the pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever
And I know it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although I know that he is blind
Still I say, there's a way for us
I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him
The world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere
The streets are full of strangers
I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my life
I've only been pretending
Without me
His world will go on turning
A world that's full of happiness
That I have never known
I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own
I don't have words to describe your voice
I am beginning to think I am looking at a soon to be super star. I look forward to your journey. And how can one only listen to this once. Seriously, I need to get work done.
BEST 'ON MY OWN' COVER EVER. As always, you're amazing.
Too bad I can only click like once!
Holy crap I've never heard such a good voice both in general and technically, and the acting too. Wow.
Wow, Evan! That's so kind of you to say! Thank you. :)
Brittany J Smith literally thank you for making music! You’re one of those people that add magic to life that makes it worth it!!!!

This will forever be my favorite cover💜
Oh Kayla! Thank you so much!
It's too much. You're absolutely amazing. I love Les Mis, I love this song and I absolutely love your voice acting like this. If you get someday to be Eponine, I only pry to be able to see it, even if it is only in RUclips. My best wishes are with you always since I discovered this channel. (sorry if my English isn't the best; I don't usually practise talking the language)
This sounds so great! I am picky about "pretending" continuing up the scale rather than up and back down, but you still nailed this song.
Your vocal control and controlled vibrato 😱😱😱♥️♥️♥️♥️
One of my all time favourite songs. So happy that you delivered it with the passion and emotions it deserved. Thank you. 😘
There are some beautiful singers on youtube I could listen to all day and you are one of them. Stunning
A very well pop cover of the song. Well done. Clap clap. Brought out the emotions.
YESSSSS BRITTANY you are such an inspiration I’m so glad I’ve found you.
Thank you Melanie!! I'm so glad you did too! :)
Wow! This is absolutely amazing! You have an incredibly powerful voice and I can’t wait to see more! Can’t believe it took me so long to find your channel.
Great On My Own cover. Thank you for sharing this.
Wowwwww I’m speechless❤️
Really enjoyed your interpretation and expression of this piece. Beautifully and skillfully you convey the deep emotions of the story. Thanks :-)
I watched Les Mis last week and this song it's one of my faves. Later, I looked for some covers and I watched your old cover and I loved it, and know you've sung it again and your voice it's really beautiful and powerful ♥
I was hoping this cover was on here.. and you DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! AMAZING!!!!
Oh my God. I've heard every version of this song that's ever been made. I've seen it on stage a million times. This is simply the most sensational cover I have ever heard.
Aubrey, THANK YOU! Wow... this means SO much to me!!!
Brittany J Smith Truly astounded by every video here. I can't wait for more. Just tweeted it too because everyone should know who you are. 💕

You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for you to do this. It’s beyond stunning. It’s like Eponine was made for you. 💜
Chrissi, this made my day! Thank you sweet friend.
Honestly, Eponine deserves a hug and 3 showers
Eponine deserves so much better than what she got 😭
This is beautiful. I love this song from Les Mis, Eponine is my dream role too!!
Beautiful rendition of on my own I love the emotion you put in your covers great job.
Wow what a beautiful and Incredible voice. Wonderful cover.
I absolutely can't believe I hadn't heard this cover sooner. Truly wonderful job!

such emotion, such feeling, this is exquisite Brittany!
PLEASEEEEEE, do the song "Do You Hear The People Sing" from The Miserables!!! Please please please
Or "I dreamed a dream" :-)
Great idea. Now, to find 3 other vocalists that could carry a candle to her...
Brittany I've gotta tell you... This is pure talent, with an amazing voice and a perfect smile, you make our day. Thank you so much, we all love you.
From Brazil
Probably the best rendition of this song, one of my favorites. Wow!
she's good indeed but you have to hear the original, the one and only legend. You'll see the difference 😉
My favorite musical 💕 (the 25th anniversary stage performance ) samantha barks is proud
Wow! Is the only way to describe how you sang and let your face tell the full story and feeling of the song.
I can say with confidence that you are great as I have seen Les Miserable 8 times and my nephew is playing Marius whilst on tour with Les Miserable in the 🇬🇧
binge watching your vids and waiting for you to go viral!! you’re so talented
Oh my Goooooood, your voice is so perfect ♡ this song is amazing
Not many people I've seen can do this song in a way that appeals to me (I think it's just because I'm overly critical) but Brittany J. Smith absolutely nails it!! Love this version.
Daaaamn. It was amazing!!!!!!!!
Absolutely marvelous. There's nothing else to say.
Thank you SO MUCH, Tom!!!
Absolutely beautiful!
Wow I had Goosebumps when I was watching this. You are soo good at signing 🎵🎶🎵🎶
You are fantastic. I enjoy what you do. Your voice is captivating and emotive.
Your voice gives me all the chills, so beautiful💕
Oh my god......you've absolutely outdone yourself.... I'm in awe
this was the only cover on my channel I was remotely proud of but that's now changed, this is my favorite cover of 2018
cheeky little self plug there
Haha! Thank you Kierren! I'll have to check your cover out too! :D
Brittany J Smith no problem at all, it's from around a year ago, most of my covers fins their way on facebook as of late :) I appreciate both your reply and again, the chance to listen to this beautiful cover.
Once again beautiful! Can't wait for the next one!
Dawson's Creek memories
Congratulations, very good! Greetings and many successes from Uruguay
Giiiiirrrl you're giving me all the feels 😍
I don't even like musicals 99% of the time, but this one always destroys me. Especially this song. And you did it SO MUCH JUSTICE.
What?! This is so sweet! Thank you!!!
Beautiful song, you sang like like a famous star ⭐️
This gave me chills! Your talent never fails to amaze me! Love you girl
What a coincidence you sing this song right after I watch the Les Miserables movie for the first time! This is hands down my favorite song in the musical and you just nailed it. :D
1:16 the best part
Man I love hearing you sing anything from this.
WOW! That was amazing!
You nailed this song
Gorgeous! I simply love your covers!
I watched this a few days ago with my mom, it’s one of my favorites! You sing this so amazingly!!
I love your covers, your voice is amazing and fits perfectly on any song! If you get the chance can you please sing a song from “be more chill” or “heathers”; also I hope you did well at your audition!
I always thought nobody was perfect... Then I found your channel ❤️
This was extremely creative and well done ❤️
The most heartbreaking of heartbreaks.
wow! just wow
Youd make such an amazing Cosette !💛💛💛
Nicely done! And the b/w videography was a great touch for this piece. Had to check my phone to make sure I was seeing correctly :)
hehehe thank you Bill!!! I thought it added to the drama of it all :) Glad you liked it!
Sorry to be an audio geek for a moment, but I absolutely love the vocal treatment on this. I'm not sure what's going on here.. Maybe a new compressor reigning in the dynamics? The quiet passages are nice and forward, and I can hear that soft vibrato. Balanced very well with the backing track. Whilst I'm here, I might as well also say I loved the performance. This song always gets me, and it's worthy of a Brittany treatment :)
I came across some Les Miz songs on YT last night, ended up listening to the various singers of Stars in the plays, quite a powerful song. Which brings me to being pleasantly surprised at you covering this sweet song. Very well done, I enjoyed listening to this Brittany :)
This name will be on a giant billboard soon and I called it!!
Ahhh, Hector!! Thank you!
OMD, didn’t know you did some Les Mis too. Love it 💜
.
Just jumping around Les Mis video's getting in the mood for the new production opening on the West End and boy am I glad I clicked on this. I saw Samantha Bank's sing this live and thought it was the most beautiful version I would ever hear... Until approximately 3 minutes and 3 seconds ago! 😍👌
Oh WOW, Jon! That's very high praise & so kind of you to say! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :)
My heart shattered at 2:37
a breath of fresh air
Sin palabras!!!! Eres fantástica, maravillosa y es voz es de angeles 😍
Yas queen another beautiful performance
Outstanding!! Queen does it again!!
You have a new subscriber! This is amazing!
You become more awesome with every damn video I watch. You're crazy cool, Britt, and you deserve success.
this is bloody beautiful
Wow so much talent! I must confess some time ago I was totally friendzoned and, stupid as it may seem I was in love with that girl for three long years. Pure love that didn't expect anything back. Very special experience that maybe everyone should live at least once (but just once). You are a super talented singer and I wish you all the luck. Best wishes from Spain!
YOU ATE THIS UP MADAM

This is amazing!
new subscriber!! you are so amazing!!💗
