      @@mtbottle1 A taste that you are free to express and opinion that you are free to state but that is all that they are.
      However, you are surprised that in 2019, she was "allowed" to give such a "modern" interpretation? Seriously? What next? Are you surprised that a black girl was "allowed" to play the role?
      Whichever way you choose to describe it, this rendition kicks all others into touch. Everything about it. The quality of her vocals, her emoting through them and her acting. Lea Salonga with her staring into the distance, no emotion and hitting notes by numbers with no inflexion would not have got a look-in and even the beautiful triple threat that is Samantha Barks would have struggled.

    On my own
    Pretending he's beside me
    All alone
    I walk with him 'til 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

    And now I'm all alone again nowhere to go
    No one to turn to
    Without a home, without a friend
    Without a face so say hello to
    And now the night is near
    Now I can make believe he's here
    Sometimes I walk alone at night
    When everybody else is sleeping
    I think of him and then I'm happy
    With the company I'm keeping
    The city goes to bed
    And I can live inside my head

    she has a beautiful voice. That said, that was the most Meh performance of Eponine I have ever seen. There was not one point where I felt anything from it. Im not saying it was terrible, Im just saying that it brought absolutely no emotional response. Like I said, she has a beautiful voice but this just isnt her role.

    I think of this song as being part of the musical, so it needs to retain the mode of the musical. The performance here has some of the American gospel flourishes that Whitney Houston used when she sang the Star Spangled Banner at the Super Bowl. That touch seems out of place here in this song, in the context of this musical. I think it brings too much of the individual performer into the performance, in place of the character she is singing as. It feels like graffiti sprayed on a work of art, where the graffitist has left his mark on someone else's work. This shows up, for example, at 0:51, in "beside," making it "besiyi-ide," at 1:21 in "silver," at 1:34 in "of," and in other places scattered throughout. It sounds like Whitney Houston and that school of singing, but that is not appropriate here. Gospel tends to break up long-held notes with certain characteristic flourishes like that. But this song should be sung with the long notes unadorned, because it's not gospel, and there's nothing in the musical that relates to American gospel.
