    I met Alfie after he gave his first concert in NYC. He came out to speak with people as they were leaving, which I did. Then I rushed back because I had forgotten my glasses, and he helped me find them. He’s an endearing, shy and massively talented man.

      @@______-bp1ml I don't think many can. However, Jackman is a far better actor and his rugged baritone interpretation I find endearing. I will say Boe is objectively a better singer though.
      Crowe was a crock of shite though. There are plenty of decent drama school alumni that are decent actors with better bari/bass voices.

    If you have never experienced Alfie Boe live, I have to say you must make the effort if you can. He is a presence - a true force of nature, with a level of energy that is truly astonishing. There are waves of humor that leave you rolling in the aisles.
    Then...as you settle in to listen, his voice grabs you by the throat and leaves you gasping for breath. He is that good.
    I saw him with the Phoenix Symphony and the musicians of the orchestra were in tears right along with the audience!

    Love Les Mis...could never afford a ticket. Although for many outsiders they live this story every day...there is always the CD. Thanks Mr Cameron and Co for a great show...any chance of a sequel!!

    I have never heard of this person. I was searching for the song. When I heard his voice, I turned up the volume. Very moving. He touched my heart. Thank you. You have made this your own. Beautiful. 🙏🏻

    Alfie Boe is simply phenomenal, unbelievably brilliant… Nobody sings Bring Him Home like him, he is the best vocalist for this song with the most magnificent voice… the emotion that he brings through his voice is absolutely impressive, absolutely the best rendition of this song… those tears in his eyes just touches me so deeply and brought me to tears as well… Perfectly performed and stunning, thank you so much Alfie Boe, you are absolutely wonderful and amazing…

    I ALWAYS come home to Alfie Boe's rendition of this song - I don't care what anyone else says about the originator of the role - Alfie Boe IS the voice of Jean Valjean for me.

    I've heard about Les Miserables since I don't know when, also love the song I Dreamed a Dream, but have never watched the play/movie in full. I've tried to watch the movie, but can't stand the singing so I only manage to watch around 20 minutes or so. But last year I watched the 25th anniversary concert with Alfie Boe as Jean Valjean and I was blown away by the story, the songs, the singing, the emotion. I shed tears countless times...

    God on high
    Hear my prayer
    In my need
    You have always been there
    He is young
    He's afraid
    Let him rest
    Heaven blessed.
    Bring him home
    Bring him home
    Bring him home.
    He's like the son I might have known
    If God had granted me a son.
    The summers die
    One by one
    How soon they fly
    On and on
    And I am old
    And will be gone.
    Bring him peace
    Bring him joy
    He is young
    He is only a boy
    You can take
    You can give
    Let him be
    Let him live
    If I die
    Let me die
    Let him live
    Bring him home
    Bring him home
    Bring him home.
