Lucy Lincoln ....... or any of the songs in the show. I’m reading the original Victor Hugo book. You have to wonder how anyone thought “Hey! This is so dark and depressing. Let’s make it a musical!” and then did it (rather successfully). Big revelation so far is Epinone is actually the innkeepers daughter. I certainly never figured that out.
Harrison Waterhouse That I didn't get the relationship? Ya, I guess I should have but I'm not sure where in the play I missed it.

Yes. There is no question to it. Brings all the cast together and finishes with the absolute perfect crescendo to set up the second act. It is the best. There is none that even come close to it.
@@sheilas1283 I agree. It never fails to move me, after so many versions and variations. I would offer "Defying Gravity" but at the end of the day "One Day More" always brings down the house
Actually, when Matt Lucas played it in the 25th Anniversary, it was his first time plus he never sang. He is friends with Alfie Boe and he gave him lessons. In fact, he lived with Matt at one point because his apartment flooded. It’s really more of an important role than I thought at first. At least they are alive at the end!
Type in ”Les Mis 25th anniversary, Alfie Boe teaches Matt Lucas to sing”. Matt really was a rookie. Clips of Alfie singing in Matt’s kitchen ”warbling” they call it - should come up. Have to wonder what the neighborhood thought....”0h Lord, HE is here again!”
Their editors are professionals, so I'm sure they already had the professional equipment they needed. The editors should be given more credit. They made this presentation flow perfectly. I just wanted to add for the nonprofessionals, there is a software package now that they can use. Our Church choir is using it. Each member sings the songs individually in their homes to the music and emails their videos to the editor. The editor uses the software package to put all their voices and videos together. This task may be more of a challenge, because the singers are not professionals and their video skills are well, not professional. Therefore, it's not as polished as this video, performed and edited by amazing professionals, but it is a way to see your Church choir make a joyful noise. Actually, I must say, the Church choir, they weren't bad at their Easter performance.
It's interesting that Les Mis is being featured so much, besides being one of the best musicals ever, it seems very apropos at this time in history. It gives you reason to add that extra bit of emotion, that extra push into the song. But as usual, the people who need to hear it most, will not in any way realize how it's words and meaning applies to them. So, may the people keep on singing, till they hear those freedom bells a ringing, once again.
@@celestejohnston6613 Yes, I have a vision of people from all over the world singing this song, with each language being highlighted at different times. A group from Hong Kong also sang it in their language. You can find that one on You Tube as well.
Like everyone in this comment section, I've heard a *lot* of recordings of this song. But I think a creditable case can be made that this -- a recording made when most of the people weren't even in the same *state*, and nobody could leave their driveway -- may be the canonical version of the number. Bravo tutti, from the future!
I was in high school when I spent more money than I had to buy a front row balcony seat to Les Miz and I'm so glad I did! Great memories from this musical--all five times I've seen it!
I saw this on Broadway about 20 years ago and at the time, didn't even know what Les Miserables was! By the time the play ended, I was starstruck! The best musical to ever come out of Broadway!
As a New Yorker living on Broadway by Lincoln Center, this is very near and dear to my heart. I truly had tears streaming down my face whilst watching. God, I miss this extraordinary art, and these extraordinary artists. My gracious thanks to all of them, and to you for sharing. Genuinely a ray of light, and hope, in these difficult times.
This is one song I never tire of. Especially the final, verse, "Tomorrow we'll discover what our God in heaven has in store." God is always the one who decides the final outcome.
Going on 2 months working from home without interacting with my wonderful coworkers. Listening to these phenomenal artists just pulls me out of my “aloneness doldrums” and I just know I can survive “One More Day...”. Thank you to all the cast members all over the world.
It's 5:00 am my emotions are a mess, I'm torn between crying because this reminds me of how much I miss singing in my choir and experiencing live music, or laughing about Enjolras, he was amazing!
That was incredible! I do not believe that a better play was ever written and these performers have such incredible, God given talent. Les Miserables is such an incredible tale, so very reflective of the real life Grace of God and how He has, by His Grace and love, sacrificed Himself for our salvation! I believe I’ve seen Les Mis 6 or 7 times on Broadway and I’ve often wondered how anyone performing in the play and hearing this message 6 or 8 times per week, could ever escape the pull of God’s love and grace.
Disagree 100% her voice was so thin and pale compared to Marius and Cosette. "But he never saw me there" should be a strong belt and she barely sang it. She might as well have not been there. Paging Samantha Barks or any of the significantly superior Eponines. I've seen it over ten times and I've never been so disappointed in the casting Eponine
Thank you! Came to say the same. From the final credits, she is Eve Montpetit from the Canadian bilingual tour. Loved her tone and the fact that although she's Eponine, you don't automatically want to hit her with a cheese grater. She's not going for the yelling olympics and I am grateful.
I was supposed to see les mis but it got cancelled, but for one of my classes i had to do a favorite quote so i did Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise
What an inspiring performance from young thespians. The voices are incredible. the intentions, spot on. Great job. So sorry this could not be seen in it's entirety. Good luck to your futures. Marci Bing, Theatre Three, Port Jefferson, NY
This is amazing! Very good singing! I have listened to this at least 25 times! Projecting your voices is wonderful! I always sing this song, but I can't sing more than one voice at a time... still, outstanding!!!!!!
Great job. My late brother-in-law, Michael Burgess, was with you in the original Toronto cast. I wish you could have figured a way to pass a flag virtually between you at the end!
After his run as Veljean Colm Wilkerson took over the role in the original Toronto production bless your brother in law he was the best actor and he did our national anthem at hockey games .
Btw - if you ever saw the Dream Concert (the 10th anniversary concert), Craig Shulman (who performs as Valjean here) represented the US for the international encore with the 17 Valjeans. He played Valjean in over 2000 performances both on Broadway and other international versions
Get a copy of the 25th anniversary performance video recorded at London's O2 arena. Unbelievably good, including the bonus of having the original B'way cast participate in an encore of this very number. It will make you cry!
I could be wrong but..... @1:44 The guy at the bottom right of the screen was on Britain's Got Talent a few years ago. His voice shines through during the final 'one day more.'

Ok but that Enjolras is A++++
TakeOneVlogs agreed
He really is!
does anybody know who he is? I would have to find more with him in it.
found it below... Doug MacNaughton
Thanks, I scrolled down just to ask WHO THE BLOODY HELL IS THAT ENJORAS?? WOW!!! Love him!!!
That enjolras looks like a 18th century french nobleman meets santa claus and i love it lol
Nailed it! The noble French Santa I never knew I needed in my life!!
But his voice 🙌
Oh what a fab comment. Laughed so hard at that. But true!!
Accurately depicts what the character would have looked in old agr
That’s DougMacNaughton here on YT
Is this the best song written to close an Act? Is it, arguably, the best musical song ever written?
Richard Nottage i totally second that!
You mean there’s another one? 🙌
Yes. There is no question to it. Brings all the cast together and finishes with the absolute perfect crescendo to set up the second act. It is the best. There is none that even come close to it.
I think it is. I’ve seen Les Mis about 6 times and could watch it 6 times more! I think it’s astonishing.
@@sheilas1283 I agree. It never fails to move me, after so many versions and variations. I would offer "Defying Gravity" but at the end of the day "One Day More" always brings down the house
They haven't lost their touch at all!! True talents. I love this very much!!
Ok for some reason the Thenardiers always sound the same in every les mis cast
It's because of all the Cockneys in 19th century Paris

An underrated observation much will loose in translation.
The Enjolras is just absolutely amazing 👌🏼also his hair is just absolutely perfect for Enjolras 💙🇫🇷❤️
The guy singing Enjolras’ part has an awesome voice.
Absolutely lovely wonderful beautiful ❤️👏
This is so beautiful, I hope to one day see this live.
I wish it so much for you. One of the best. I go see it everytime it comes to town or if it happens to be in the one I visit.
I hope you do! It’s fantastic.
I've seen it numerous times and its just as good EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
Anna Winn You must! Call me - I'll go with you. I'm not sure what my limit is on seeing it but I'm no where near it yet! 😃
Once quarantine is over, I can’t wait to do this song with my entire cast
Your under house arrest get use to it.Your freedoms have gone.

That's assuming they had a driveway in the first place.
Truly magnificent god knows how many times Ive clicked on this video now. The anthem of 2020/21. Excellent job everyone!!
I was in high school when I spent more money than I had to buy a front row balcony seat to Les Miz and I'm so glad I did! Great memories from this musical--all five times I've seen it!
CRYING when i recognized my Jean Valjean and my Javert from 2000... By their VOICE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I saw this on Broadway about 20 years ago and at the time, didn't even know what Les Miserables was! By the time the play ended, I was starstruck! The best musical to ever come out of Broadway!
It came out of (a) Paris and (b) London.
Moved me to tears!!
Amazing artists!
Doug's voice (Enjolras) is SUNNING!!
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!

I'd follow him into battle..!
Any Day is better with a little Les Miz. Love It - Much Needed in these CRAZY Days. Thanks ❤️🇨🇦
Saw the first cast in London, 1985. Brilliant.
Anyone else watching this on 1.19.2021?
I'm watching it on 1.21.2021
That was brilliant. They were all amazing but I could listen to the man who played Jean Valjean all day. He has a voice like velvet.
That's Craig Shulman! I saw him as ValJean a million years ago when Les Mis premiered on Broadway!
He was the USA Vajean in the 10th Anniversary Concert
That guy is a legend. The only guy to play Jekyll/Hyde, Jean Valjean, and The Phantom in major productions.
This musical is my all time favourite - thank you for sharing this beautiful music during covid.
素晴らしい!生で聞きたい!
There is almost something supernatural and magical about music and singing. That something so beautiful can come from us is just beyond belief
This is the best thing I've seen today, or even this year! A true musical for the ages!
They are legends of this musical. So powefull, encourrging.
Without a doubt one of the best musicals I have ever seen. Remember going to see it with friends, their birthday present to me
Impresionante!! Felicitaciones para este bello grupo, saludos desde Argentina❤️
Thank you much needed.
thank you to everyone who contributed- so appreciated
I hope that in eternity, God blesses all of us with voices like that.
Just awesome. Got goose bumps. Thank you all.
This is truly sung by a choir of angels, thank you so much for sharing it. Love and blessings to all of your wonderful singers.
I got chills! And Enjolras made my whole day hahaha
What asshats would thumbs down this???!!! Spectacular! Thank you for some light in the darkness. ❤🙏
Les Mis has always been a beautiful performance in all walks of life.
Daaaaaaaaang that's the best Eponine I've ever heard!
Fantastic! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤩
Incredible. Every voice here. Incredible.
This is better than any recording of the song you can buy. Bravo!!! Thank you so much for putting this out into the world!
THAT ENJOLRAS THOOO
Ironically Doug MacNaughton, who is from Canada, played Javert in Les Miz - he might even be better known as an opera singer than musical theater
Goose bumps! Bravos and Bravas!
A beauty gift to all of us. Thanks!! ♥️
THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!
love it so much.
Well Done Video. Love this number and I think this is a fine version.
Bravissimo!
Enjolras though!!!!👌👌👏👏👏
"Tomorrow we'll discover what our God in Heaven has in store", I cry every single time.
Just for the time signature... 10/4!
Enjolras clearly has opera training.
レミゼの曲全部好きだけどこの曲は特に好きだから嬉しいです🥰
こんなに歌が上手くなりたいなぁ
Oh I saw Les Miserables in 1994 and fell in love with this amazing musical and story. This is honestly one of the most amazing videos I’ve ever seen.
Have you seen Santa Clara Vanguard's performance of it in 2013?
Very nice. Love this song.
