![Lea Salonga - On My Own (Les Misérables) [REACTION]](/img/1.gif)
I've watched too many reaction videos from Vocal coaches and theatre singers of this performance of Lea and I must say that I only understood about the reasons behind the technicalities and the over all musicality of this performance through you guys. It's so wonderful how you present and interpret your observations in a way that people who knows less or nothing about the technical stuff could understand; someone who understand this better than we do; someone whom not only have a background in the musical theatre but are passionate about it. I love what you said about the parts where Eponin was in a dream state and how she is when she's back in the "reality". It was like an "ahh" moment for me. haha....
This helped me appreciate this performance even more. Thank you so much for that. Keep it up you guys and more power to your channel. Love from the Philippines!
Ah thank you so much for this!! We love Theatre and we love the layers of detail that go into performances like this.
We appreciate it so much and will continue to do our best work!
Please share and Keep supporting.
Much love. Beth and Christian xx
@@nowthen.4363 This is so cool! Thank you for reading my comment and for responding to it. Subscribed, sharing and looking forward to watching more reaction videos. ❤️👍🏻👀
Amen!
If you see the show live, you will understand the context so much better.
One of the most iconic performances in musical theater history.
Absolutely!! X
So true!
Your discussion of the technical foundations of this performance was wonderful. But , the thing that elevated your comments above other reactors, was the explanation of how Lea handled the different emotional parts of the performance. Brilliant!
To me, this is by far the best reaction video on Lea's On My Own. Subscribed!
Ah thanks Leon! Welcome! 👋🏻 x
I agree 😍
I am a theatre person as well and it is really nice seeing theatre people like me react to theatre performances that just not focuses on singing but acting and the piece itself
Detailed, Accurate, Honest Reaction! You (both) are simply Amazing just like the Legendary Lea Salonga 👑.
#HailToTheQueenOfBroadwayAndDisney
Please react to her version of VIA DOLOROSA pleaseeeeeeeee.... A million thanks in advance.
Hey!! Thank you!! 😍👋🏻
Oh yes! Theatre Thursday wouldn’t be the same without Beth! 💙💛
She’s got the smarts and can decipher my rambles. 💭
I’ll definitely check out your suggestion. We might TRY and give someone else a look in haha! But I’ll add it to the list.
Thanks for the support ✨✨
TNVC
@@nowthen.4363 OMG. I am excited. Please, I haven't seen anybody who tried to react on Via Dolorosa. Thank you to the nth power. I am a fan of this page. Keep safe always ❤️
The great thing about Lea S. is every time she performs a song she doesn't just understand the meaning of the song but she also captures the emotions of the songwriter as they are making it. And be able to convey it to the audience with speech clarity and emotional tone of voice. No listener would miss any of the messages of the song, which is very important in a broadway musical.
She needs to perform it perfectly because she was the first asian to portray eponine and the expectations of people for the woman of color performing white character she said on an interview
I never get tired of watching this amazing performance... I don't wonder why she was chosen to do Eponine for this anniversary concert instead of the original cast. She delivered!
Yes! I thought that. I mean Francis Ruffelle is amazing but it's a very different performance. I guess Lea had alot of success and recognition with Miss Saigon so maybe they invited her off the back of that. I'll have to see if she was playing Eponine in the West End at this time, I don't know. She definitely delivered!!! xx
When you suddenly not just enjoy the music and the performer and when you suddenly understand the character and the details of this performance. Only you two can do this. This is brilliant. Massive thank you Christian and. Beth
Omg! What a reaction! So much depth and insights. And I really like how you guys brought us into your imagination of what the story is all about. My heart is full!
Oh thank you so much for that comment ❤️❤️
your comments actually made me understand the characters more and the songs more
Well that’s good to know x thank you!
I've never enjoyed a reaction this much. I could understand how you could be so astute and discerning, though. You both breathe and live theatre music and performing arts. We are lucky to have such talent and discernment breaking things down for us. You're just as amazing as the great Lea Salonga.
This must be one of the best reaction to lea's on my own. It is not only technical but also the talks about the emotion put into the song is on point.
Thanks so much!! 💙xx
aarghhh now im craving for more comments and reactions from you about her, especially on her performance as Fantine. i learn a lot from both of you, thank you.
We’re working on new things... so watch this space. We want to get videos out faster without all the editing!
We may have some LIVE Reactions coming up and a new system to get them out faster! 😁✨👍
ruclips.net/video/C5Mju1-nqzQ/видео.html xx
Your remarkable reaction and technical knowledge of Broadway musical, and especially on Miss Lea's performance on Le Miz's 10th anniversary. Truly amazing!
You guys are amazing, I just realized how dumb I was for not realizing the character development of this single song. I just felt it.
No you’re not dumb!!
We also made discoveries watching a song we’ve watched hundreds of times.
🙌 x
Amazing Analysis and Observation appreciate your reaction Coach😇🙏🇵🇭
Brilliant deconstruction! Thank you.
And yes, in the Paris Revival of Les Mis, Own My Own was "Mon Histoire". Eponine was played by Stéphanie Martin in the Paris Revival Cast.
Ah brilliant! Thanks! X and welcome!!
One of the best reaction videos I’ve seen on Icon Lea’s rendition of “on my own”-
Queen of theater lea
The most profound, intelligent, detailed interpretation or reaction on this song. You guys made me understood every layer of the song. You guys rock! All the best to you two! Stay blessed! Subscribed!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Ah thanks so much Malcolm! We love your kind words! ❤️❤️❤️
Now Then. ❤️❤️❤️
Lea Salonga is a great performer! This is the best vocal coaches' reaction so far. I would watch Lea being one of the vocal coaches of the Voice Teens in the Philippines. She would always say to open your mouth wide and pronounce your words well would be one of her best advices for a great performance.
Thank you Beth and Christian for sharing these remarkable features and your wonderful comments of amazing musical performances of superb artists. And, loving both of you, for remarkable analysis of Broadway star performer Lea Salonga, our very own Filipino icon. "On My Own" is my fave Les Miz songs. Kudos to you!🤗👏🎶🇵🇭
Thank you for your kind words!!! Xx
You both are so astute in your technical reaction, you are not just making things up, it showed your mastery in theatre and in all aspects of song delivery, voice techniques and color-- truly professional that you are. It's worth listening to you over and over.
Thanks Abelardo and Welcome! 👋🏻 xx ✨✨
God! You took me into the detailed journey of the song! Kudos to you both! Keep safe and more amazing reaction videos.
Thank you for playing this video of Lea Salonga our greatest pride. Love fr.d Philippines
Would you react to Lea singing "I Dreamed a Dream"? There's bootleg video of her performing it in the play with fairly good quality. It would be lovely to see your take on it. She also sang it in the anniversary concert, wonder if there's much difference. She's older when she took on Fantine and wonder if you can tell if her technique changed, her acting, her voice.
Ugh. Excellent deconstruction! I have watched this performance so many times now I thought I knew everything about it. so thank you. I will look into this piece of dream in a new light. ❤️
Thanks Ronald!! ✨ We also looked at it in a new light too. So welcome to the discovery.
Love love love how you interpreted the 3 “ I love Him“ at the end ... Lea Salonga just Phenomenal !
I was working in London in the late 80’s and early 90’s, before moving to the US. I decided to treat my GF at the time to a new show - Miss Saigon. We had gone to Les Mis, and had a fantastic time (saw Lea later in Les Mis). She was such a talent, right from the start. Seeing her live, seeing Les Mis live, is an experience that is forever locked in your mind. Memories, thank you Lea!
An in depth reaction indeed! Excellently done mates !!!Love from Philippines!Subbed!
I can't wait to see this! I truly love watching your reaction vid. More power to you ! I love theater performances so hoping this pandemic ends soon.
thank you for appreciating lea's talent #queen
Ahhhh. I love everything about this video! Thank you for a very thorough explanation!!! Absolutely stunning!!!
Ah thank you so much Callie!! X welcome 👋🏻
@@nowthen.4363 SUBSCRIBING NOW!!! ❤️
@@shabytin 💛💙💛💙 Yeyyyy! X
You guys are the best vocal coaches. Very good reactions !!!
Great review! I love how you emphasize this little details that made this performance relatable and more heart felt. I think this is the first review I've seen so far that doesn't just focus on singing techniques but also the acting delivery, it's the overall performance. I enjoyed watching. Kudos!
Would highly recommend having a look at Lea and Regine Velasquez Musical Medley. Epic stuff. Really enjoying your reactions!
Thanks Kenneth!
Do they sing together? That’s sure to be epic! We’ll have a look ✨🎭
@@nowthen.4363 yeah they do. It was done during lockdown last year. I've watched a whooooole bunch of times!
@@kennethgraham4694 Incredible! Thanks for the suggestion.
I’ll either react myself or with Beth.
Keep well! ✨
Timeless performance 🎭 everything in Lea’ performance is just perfect, thanks guys 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it! 🎶 💙
This reaction/breakdown deserves a million views
She's not just singing, she is the story teller!
Please react to her version of don't cry for me argentina..it's amazing..

Very profound analysis. Thank you. Very enlightening.
Thanks Ramon!! ❤️✨
Thank you for this insightful, intelligent and generous reaction of Lea Salonga's performance.
I used to show this video when teaching English as a second language to show how English vowels need to be shaped to be pronounced properly. Lea is so incredible.
If you liked "On My Own" you'll definitely also like "A Little Fall of Rain" by Lea Salonga and Michael Ball - really puts your emotions on check. ruclips.net/video/IyPy2Iqq-NM/видео.html
My very first time to comment on reactors analysis of a singer and the song bec of the thoroughness and completeness of such an analysis. Tnx!

Meaningful reactions
Thanks Troy xx
Both of you are so intelligent with your reactions and discussions that it helped me appreciate much Lea Salonga's performances. Bravo.
Makes me appreciate Lea much more for truly doing the hard prep work and not just relying on talent! Intelligence, hard work, and talent make her beyond brilliant!
Great commentary/analysis - the two of you explain in ways that everyone can understand what goes into a singing/acting performance. I've worked in theatre and opera (though I'm not a singer) ... I really appreciate the insight you provide, and love that it's interwoven with your emotional responses and acknowledgment of the *work* that it takes. Brava, bravo - loved it; subscribing.
Very well done. I watched this for a second time and enjoyed it even more than the first time. Your editing was superb and your perspective from an artist's point of view was outstanding. Lea is a vocalist on a level reserved for only the greatest and your video pointed out her magnificence throughout the performance. And, almost taken for granted, is the contribution of the orchestra. The dream/reality sequences were stroked so beautifully and took us on a ride with Lea.
amazing insightful reactions.. wowww
Thanks Dee!!
Your Analysis and Commentary are Perfectly accurate keep it Up Guys Appreciate Your Content😊🙏💗🇵🇭
O7:15 '..in the darkness..' in this part I always sigh too. I've never heard anyone sing, invoke imagery of the word 'darkness' in such a bright and positively magical way. It became the perfect backdrop for beautiful things or like a veil that hids wonderful possibilities.. her delivery defied the common usage of that word. She paints with her voice so well.
Brilliant contribution. Yes I absolutely agree! The darkness is her beautiful fantasy world. The real world is full of danger and depression. X
Thank you for your insights on the song and the performance.. i really love this song... i have not known les mis before but i already love this song because the lyrics are so relatable.. the beauty and pain of unrequited love..
Definitely suggest you listen to more!! Thank you and welcome! Xx
@@nowthen.4363 yeah! Definitely! 😊 i also now have a deeper understanding of the character.. tnx again..
@@lin.mar.4 💙💛💙💛
You are so informative and fun! You deserve a lot of subs!
This very sensible and educational discussion! Why didn’t I cross onto this much earlier? Props to both of you wonderful coaches! 👏
She is so good! The BEST!!!
Watching this video react brought me lots of feels. Firstly, I got genuine and techncal views and secondly, I got some pointers on how to deliver a song like this. Singing is not just all about performing, it is about the ability to tell a story as well, effectively.
thank you to both of you.
Due to watching and hearing that video over and over again I can detect that you kind of lowered the video in your reaction. Legit, I had to go back to the exact video to confirm my thoughts hahahah I find it very weird since I know how she really sounded...But wowww nice reaction over and over again! Love it! Please do react to Lea Salonga's Blurred Lines
Truly she's a legend in musical theater.. Thanks for this. Love from philippines❤️
Thanks Jane xxx
You had me at Lea❤️ subscribed
Wow, such an intricately detailed review of this beautiful, heart-wrenching, classic, all-time favorite theater song. You took me to a journey of really feeling & minding each part & lyric, to almost becoming the character herself. Thank you.
Another fantastic reaction! I will echo the request that you react to Lea and Regine Velasquez doing a Broadway medley. You will love it!!!
Thanks Meredith!! I'm exited. I loved them both!! X
You guys are so on point! 👍
Seeing how Lea is a technical singer and how she had to make her performances absolutely perfect back in the day, I would like to think that she has a basement somewhere that’s just full of notes on characters she’s played, their personalities in certain songs, her vocal capabilities in relation to the character, how she can portray her character through voice, etc.
this was great. I love the perspective of theatre experts.
The most beautiful song ever written right here
I just subscribed to your channel. Fantastic analysis. 👍
Thank you and welcome 💙✨
these deserves more more views
What makes listening to Lea sing such a transporting experience is you don’t get distracted by any gimmicks. You don’t even notice when she takes a breath. Does she even breathe when she sings? It’s almost not human.
Brilliant analysis to a legendary performance and musical masterpiece...
You got me. Or maybe it’s Lea. Subscribed!
This is so beautiful 😭
I love this reaction. Really!
Pls react to Lea Salonga’s Don’t Cry for me Argentina
Would love to see a reaction to Ben Platt in his role as Evan Hansen 💖💖
fantastic channel... subscribed. 💜
Amazing reaction video!!! Thanks. I would love to reccomend you make a reaction video on Lea and Rachelle Go's duet. That was superb!! Rachelle is also a Filipino who played in the revival show of Miss Saigon. Their duet about the song I Know Him So Well! I'm so excited.
Please react to Lea Salonga HIGHER from the Allegiance
The lady's insights are 🎖
Oh yeh they are!! 👌
Queen Lea. If you have not yet, please react to A little fall of rain also from Les Mis with Michael Ball. One of the most heartbroken and best performed acts ever 🙏🏻
Well done!
Fantastic content!
Great duo reaction!
Please check out Lea Salonga’s first audition for Ms Saigon :) 👌🏻
Wow love your reaction!
Thank you!! 😁
The one and only...
I love your reactions! Can you please also react to Lea Salonga and Michael Ball singing "A Little Fall of Rain" from the same production?
Absolutely on our list xx
Love u both from philippines❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Is it just me or did you do something to the sound? Did you change the quality/texture? Well, I don't know the right term for it but, Lea's voice here especially im her low register sounds really deep, dark, and round.
Anyway, I really love your reaction to this. Aside from all the technicalities you mentioned, my favorite part of your reaction is the Dream Word vs Reality. The changes of emotion for those parts. Omg... I love singing. I love art.
Woweeee u guys are the best!!!, I'm a theater drummer, sorry can't think of the real name, but anyways, yeah I just wanna say congratulations on ur in sight,so good.
Please react to Lea Salonga playing Fantine on the 25th anniversary of les mis. I love how they adjusted the key to fit Lea’s mezzo-soprano voice.
Next to this no., my favourite is a Little Fall of Rain because she's finally happy to be with him even if he still doesn't love her :')
