No uou can see real emotion I struggle with reading g emotions I'm autistic and hsve bpd, but he shows real emotions that rven people like me can read and that in itself is a immense talent I'm surprised thry don't burn out si aging with such emotion
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.
This is the classically trained voice I have repetitively come in awe and tears and awe. Mr BOE. I give you my greatest thanks and deepest admiration. You have brought me home, many times.
Apparently Alfie auditioned for JVJ for the movie literally right before Hugh Jackman...they must’ve only wanted star power because how did they not cast him?! He’s phenomenal!
They just wanted people with name and that sucks. I am sorry but i dont think hugh was right for the role at all. He cannot sing as well as alfie can for example.
@@______-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!
My last memory with my late auntie heather. Was seeing alfae boe live at caird hall . Met him afterwards hes so humble and a gentleman. Meeting a legend and saying goodbye to another one
SO REAL; saw him in les miz on broadway for my birthday when i was 9 on his final weekend and my god he was incredible and the sweetest person ever, truly an unforgettable experience
After watching the movie Les Mis, I wanted to show my husband what Valjean was actually supposed to sound like, and I came across this stunning performance by Alfie Boe. Thank you for making me cry; beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!
I’ve seen Les Miserables three times. So soon as we are past this Covid pandemic, it’s the first performance, I shall book and, no doubt, I shall cry once more.
I have seen it 8 times so far and still get goose bumps. I am 58 now and just decided to visit it 4 more times at least till I die. Unfortunately it is not shown in Germany on a regular basis anymore. Wish all of you a chance for more visits! And Alfie for me is also the best „Home Run“! 😄😄
I could not agree more! The first time I heard Alfie Boe sing: "Bring Him Home", I could not stop crying! As a trained vocalist it takes extrodinary talent to bring me to tears. Mr. Boe is that extrodinary talent!
I had purchased Bring Him Home by Colm Wilkinson long ago . There is NOBODY who sings thus song like Boe. I cry when I listen to this song! WHAT TALENT!!!!!!!! I am in love!❤
May I add what comes to my mind when I hear this song - every single time. My brother, Edward, was in auto accident which ended his young life. I - always - think of my poor mother when she first learned about her son. They both are in Heaven now together. This brings me peace. I hope they both are in peace as well. 🙏❤️ 😢
There's a story that when when Colm first sang this song, someone said that this was proof that the musical was about God. The response was "Yea, but you didn't tell me you got God to sing it." Well, if Colm is God, then this man is Jesus. Such power, my favorite Jean ValJean.
What a voice! So powerful, yet tender and vulnerable, and full of emotion! This song always sounds like a prayer, and his facial expression and especially eyes are so expressive that they make me cry. I can feel him vibrate like a musical instrument as he sings this like an angel!
I heard this song in concert when my son was serving our country in Iraq… the song grabbed be by the throat and wouldn’t let go; I couldn’t breathe. I look over at my husband, and he had the same reaction. What a beautiful emotional song, perfectly done here. ❤
To this day, your song is my absolute favorite. My son used to travel across the United States for 20 years and during that time, many times I never knew if he was safe, as he worked on high tower and buildings doing dangerous welds, etc...And I would not hear from him sometimes for close to a year. The first time I heard your song, I cried like a baby, and then I found comfort in it there after. Thank you so much for this beautiful song!
There are no words to describe Alfie's beautiful voice and delivery. Tears flow every time I have watched him sing this masterpiece. Absolutely sublime!❤❤❤❤
Absolute perfection. Missing my 18 year old grandson serving a 2 year mission in the mountainous jungles of central America. He is struggling. God above, protect my boy.❤
I hope he’s safe and happy. It’s so sad when you miss your kids. My grandson came over for a visit from USA on. Friday. Hadn’t seen him for 9 years. I’m dreading him going back I may never see him again and it breaks my heart.
His voice is stunning.. I GET chill bumps..every time I I hear this song..anyone who has ever lost a loved one in war reacts to the bottom of their heart to the words
Wow! He IS classically trained. He understands very clearly how much more support you need to sing a high note pianissimo, than to sing it loudly! And, the amount of buzz he has when he goes for it! He honestly reminds me of Mario Lanza! To put it in soprano terms, he has Caballe's high pianissimo AND Callas's squillo! Bravo, sir! An absolute pleasure to listen to you!
@@Ignasimp Hmmm. Well, I suppose everyone hears things differently. To me, I hear more of a lyric tenor in Bruce Ford. Hmmm. Perhaps Alfie Boe is a potential future spinto tenor, and that is what I am responding to. I don't know...
@@Ignasimp I suppose it would be a question of how much weight he has to his tone, as well as overall size. In truth, I'm not a guru of determining facher. To be totally honest, I haven't determined my own fach. The only thing I can tell you is that coloratura agility has come FAR easier than legato! In the end, I am a Susan kind of soprano! Lol!
@@pointofnoreturn3103 My whole point though is that he has no real chestvoice. He sings with fake clarity and sounds like modern tenors (and that is not a good thing). Real classical singing sounds nothing like this.
I actually got the chance to see him on Broadway. His version of Bring Him Home was still the longest applause afterwards compared to any other show 've been too
This mans voice is absolutely beautiful.. filled with emotion and passion.. also he fits the part perfectly.. Les Miserables is my favorite show.. Alfie is absolutely perfect for Jean Val Jean.. and he held that last note so long and so perfectly.. bravo to infinity power Alfie!! 💙🙏💙
Thank you for replying...really appreciate it. A music critic I am not.. a lover of good music I am.. and this man's beautiful voice and impassioned performance touched my heart and warmed my soul.. Alfie would be magnificent in this role..so beautiful to hear he is! Again I thank you! 💙❣💙
The first ever time I heard this being sung, the opening immediately got me and I immediately thought of my brother in law out in Afghanistan at the time. Recently at a concert a singer started singing this and again it got to me as I thought about the first time I had heard it and the worry that I felt at this time. I then told my wife why I was getting emotional as I had never told anyone before. Truly brillant voice.
I love his backstory of the role of music in his family, his early jobs of auto finishing, suggestion to try out for a regional music opportunity, finally got to London for training but slept on a park bench when he ran out of music, etc., etc. Excellent talent from a blue collar family.
In person is the only way to truly appreciate his performance. I got to see him in NYC, and when he came, every other performer stepped up their A game, best performance ever. Saw people's heads jolt back when he opened up and a large man who sat besides me who sat there mostly unmoved started crying.
Nice to hear a true dramatic style tenor able to bring all the richness of his classical training to the music AND nail the dramatic interpretation, too.
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. 🙏🏻
Could a man sing this without passion...impossible and this rendition shows how that emotion can be expressed so beautifully...just look at those tears in his eyes....
What an amazing performance ALFIE BOE . When I hear him sing I fall in love with his voice all over again here it is a year later and I'm looking through all my recordings and I find him and again here I'll go and fall in love with that voice what a beautiful tenant boys he has makes me miss watching Les miserub the play my DVD player is not working so I have to get a new one but I forgot how beautiful that voice is so I'm going to definitely get a new one
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.
You have such an Incredible Voice...Amazing range in your voice as well! The emotion that you bring to all of us through your voice and talent is very rare, and So Impressive! Thank you to share your gift with all of us!
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.
Who is the best Jean Valjean in your opinion?
Alfie Boe for his performance in 'Bring Him Home' without a doubt! 💕💕💕
Alfie!
Ramin Karimloo definetely!! Close second is Colm Wilkinson.
Ramin Karimloo 🌹 :)
Ramin Karimloo
I don,t think anyone can touch him in that roll. Excellant voice.
It's just how he roles.
No uou can see real emotion I struggle with reading g emotions I'm autistic and hsve bpd, but he shows real emotions that rven people like me can read and that in itself is a immense talent I'm surprised thry don't burn out si aging with such emotion

That's so good to know!
I've been backstage for a few that had fake reputations.
Love him,great voice and such a a nice person. Very witty is Mr Boe💯❤❤
Colm Wilkerson.
How nice what a nice guy and a great memory for you
@@peggybeckwith3479I know no one will beat him at Jean Val Jean
Alfie Boe really is my favourite Valjean
Yeah Colm Wilkonsin be damned
Me too
Mama mia
yes
Him and Colm Wilkinson are the best interpretations of Valjean ive seen
How do you tell someone that their voice, their gift, their song, brings one to tears from the beauty of it? Such a gift. Absolutely beautiful.
Nobody sings Bring him Home like Alfie, Nobody. Thank you Alfie.❤
Bless you Alfie, you are such a beautiful soul. 💞
I beg to differ. While he has an amazing talent and voice, Colm Wilkinson is by far the best JVJ. He's the Sean Connery of Broadway.
Nobody nobody . Heard you the first time
Alfie's eyes are so expressive. When he sings this, it always seems he is near tears.
Alfie is magnificent!
I think so, too.
❤ love the song love the singer
Acting
This is the classically trained voice I have repetitively come in awe and tears and awe. Mr BOE. I give you my greatest thanks and deepest admiration. You have brought me home, many times.
Bravo
My maiden name is Hume. Hope is well with your family. Alfie Boe is amazing and also touches personal moments
Magnificent! Thank you!
His dad was also a fantastic singer. I taught him to canoe & went out with his sister
Eyeroll
Apparently Alfie auditioned for JVJ for the movie literally right before Hugh Jackman...they must’ve only wanted star power because how did they not cast him?! He’s phenomenal!
Wtf
Absolutely agree, the movie was a real spectacle but I was disappointed with the quality of the singing JVJ and Javert particularly.
They just wanted people with name and that sucks. I am sorry but i dont think hugh was right for the role at all. He cannot sing as well as alfie can for example.
@@______-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.
Russel Crowe ruined the film for me.
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!
Lucky you........
My last memory with my late auntie heather. Was seeing alfae boe live at caird hall . Met him afterwards hes so humble and a gentleman. Meeting a legend and saying goodbye to another one
Fortunate to see him, out of this world ❤
SO REAL; saw him in les miz on broadway for my birthday when i was 9 on his final weekend and my god he was incredible and the sweetest person ever, truly an unforgettable experience
It’s that beautiful voice for me
Yesterday we saw Alfie in the Les Miserables concert with Michael Ball. Half the audience were in tears. Truly amazing.

Who can hear this without sobbing? Not me.
100pc not me 😢😊

I - always - think of my poor mother when she first learned about her son. They both are in Heaven now together. This brings me peace. I hope they both are in peace as well. 🙏❤️ 😢
They are together, never fear that they're not ❤
Alfie Boe is a fantastic talent but how incredible is it to see Claude Michel Schönberg, who wrote such a fantastic musical, on the piano
There's a story that when when Colm first sang this song, someone said that this was proof that the musical was about God. The response was "Yea, but you didn't tell me you got God to sing it." Well, if Colm is God, then this man is Jesus. Such power, my favorite Jean ValJean.

Reading your story moved me ad much as this beautiful song….
I trust he made it home safely to his parents loving arms!
Alfie boes song 'bring him home' I chose that for my dear husbands funeral song, hair tingling, magnificent, brilliant artist
What a beautiful gift you gave your beloved father. Everyone should have such a blessed transition. Hugs to you on the loss of your father.
To this day, your song is my absolute favorite. My son used to travel across the United States for 20 years and during that time, many times I never knew if he was safe, as he worked on high tower and buildings doing dangerous welds, etc...And I would not hear from him sometimes for close to a year.

What a wonderful voice thank you through tears
Beautiful 💗
This man is a treasure.
Of course Alfie's voice is magnificent. Who's talking about those eyes though?
All the emotion...
Oh, my God - I'd never heard this gentleman till tonight...........unbelievably brilliant.
What a voice. Makes me feel like crying. Such emotion. ❤️
I cry everytime I listen to it😭
I did cry, it’s was so beautiful!
Brings tears every time , was played at my lovely son in law funeral , he cried when he saw the production in London.
I know, I was suprised how good he was actually, I sing with tons of emotion too, sometimes too much
There are no words to describe Alfie's beautiful voice and delivery. Tears flow every time I have watched him sing this masterpiece. Absolutely sublime!❤❤❤❤
One of the greatest show songs of all time, from the greatest stage musical of the 20th century.
This was the song I chose for my husband's funeral five years ago , so emotional to this day
Absolute perfection.
Missing my 18 year old grandson serving a 2 year mission in the mountainous jungles of central America.
He is struggling. God above, protect my boy.❤

How ever many times i listin to this , it always has the same effect, a tear in my eye. And Alfie’s rendition is the best.
I HAD GOOSEBUMPS THROUGH THIS
This man singing this song...Alfie Boe will always be my favorite Val Jean.
I was privileged to see Mr. Boe perform in Les Mis and to this day he is the best Valjean I have seen in the 10 or so time I have seen the show.
To say that he is incredible is an understatement.
THIS is my all time favorite .... Such power and emotion . You give so many of us joy and love .... Alfie big love to you x
Alfie Boe always brings a tear to my eyes with this rendition. So moving.
I love his backstory of the role of music in his family, his early jobs of auto finishing, suggestion to try out for a regional music opportunity, finally got to London for training but slept on a park bench when he ran out of music, etc., etc. Excellent talent from a blue collar family.
A perfect voice, what a gift . Probably the best Jean Valjean in my opinion.
I think we all agree that this is the highlight of the concert!

Beautiful tenor. Having the composer as a collaborative pianist doesn't hurt either.
My god what a voice ever time I hear this it makes me cry what a beautiful voice ❤
This guy gives me chills every time he sings x
He was first in the queue when God gave out beautiful voices....heavenly x
A perfect voice that I could listen to over and over
What a Voice, and talent, one of the best Tenors the UK has!
My all-time favorite. This version brought tears in my eyes and goosebumps all over my body. Thank for this 🙏❤️
An outstanding example of live theatre, and why we need it back in our lives! 2020 the year of no live entertainment, very sad! Bring it Back Home!
Agreed, Thank You..
Alfie Boe always brings me to tears and deep emotion with his performance... Thank you very much, Alfie 👏👏🎼
The most beautiful voice❤❤
Nice to hear a true dramatic style tenor able to bring all the richness of his classical training to the music AND nail the dramatic interpretation, too.
I love how the audience waited until the song had ended before applauding!
That is such a beautiful voice.
Can't stop crying what a voice amazing
Me to
I absolutely agree ..he is amazing what a gifted vocalist...
There’s a lot more to Fleetwood than Fisherman’ Friends -Alfie is a perfect example of this!
I was about to reply "but they're from Cornwall" but looked it up before saying something stupid.
Every time I hear him sing this I cry, it really touches my heart ❤️ love it
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!!
OMG no one sings tnis like Alfie Boe, so emotional. WOW!
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. 🙏🏻
Could a man sing this without passion...impossible and this rendition shows how that emotion can be expressed so beautifully...just look at those tears in his eyes....
Alfie Boe, unmatched tonal quality.
Alfie Boe for me the definitive Jean Valjean. Shivers down the spine, tears to the eyes.
Gorgeous voice, and such emotion!
He does this song so beautifully. Brings tears to my eyes. God has blessed us with his voice.
Oh my God, a blessed voice!
What an amazing performance ALFIE BOE . When I hear him sing I fall in love with his voice all over again here it is a year later and I'm looking through all my recordings and I find him and again here I'll go and fall in love with that voice what a beautiful tenant boys he has makes me miss watching Les miserub the play my DVD player is not working so I have to get a new one but I forgot how beautiful that voice is so I'm going to definitely get a new one
What a magnificent voice singing one of the most iconic songs from Les Misreables, just beautiful
The voice on an archangel. Glorious! Bravo!
An artist as Mr Boe makes every song as part of himself. I listen and listen and it is like being lifted into other dimension. From Peru
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…
My mum had this played at her funeral, I was the last in line, and not a son,...oh I could cry......
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 never realised how good Alfie Boe is.
Glad to see you realise now. He is tremendous
Never tire of Les Miserables!!.. Thank you!!
And that ladies and gentlemen is how it's done...
So beautiful. So powerful. So sad.
It brought me to tears.
You have such an Incredible Voice...Amazing range in your voice as well! The emotion that you bring to all of us through your voice and talent is very rare, and So Impressive! Thank you to share your gift with all of us!

I never thought anyone could be as great as Colm Wilkinson you changed my mind! Bravo!
Once again, a magnificent voice!!! Tears!! Xx Australia 🇦🇺
He wasn't the original Jean Val Jean for no reason! He brings a story of love and concern to life in his voice in a way that is so raw and real.
Alfie brings the house down every time he sings!
He’s so amazing! Brought me to full on tears!
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.
Colm. Wilkinson is my favorite Recorder of Bring him home.😊
He has a great voice and personality, my favourite male singer.
Stunning.
Les miserables has touched my heart deeply...every scene is a vivid memory.
He is wonderful! I love this song and this artist!
