@@candyjaned.pineda6903 ah, i guess we found the person who isnt a Les Mis fan. So: In Les Miserables (the book) there is a student group comprised of revolutionaries that participates in the june rebellion, an uprising that happened in paris in 1832. Their leader is a man named Enjolras, who really believes in the idea of a french republic. Among the students, there's Grantaire, a drunk and a cynic, who does not believe in the revolution, but 'admires, loves and venerates' Enjolras, which pushes him to participate and eventually die there. Now, because of how the passage in the book was written, and Grantaire's characterisation as a whole, most modern people read that as 'so, grantaire was super gay for enjolras' Fast forward to 2012. Les Mis is a very popular musical, and it's getting a movie adaptation. George played Grantaire in it, and if Im remembering it correctly, he read the book and played Grantaire as being head over heels for Enjolras, but without mentioning it to anyone. [Everyone liked that]. Now, in this song, he has changed a few lyrics to make it fit Grantaire and Enjolras. And it's still one of the best things to happen in this fandom. So I guess the short reply is 'we ship these two characters and george is the captain of that ship'. (I really really hope this response makes any sense and answers your question. It was a bit longer than I intended, sorry)
I think standards of beauty differ from time to time. Cleopatra was considered to be a beauty but new evidence suggests she was actually average.. Beauty is very subjective.
I saw that! I was showing it to my friend and I was like “look at him! That is the smirk of a man who know exactly what he’s doing and what he’s giving us.”
I wonder if George ever thinks of this video and starts giggling and twirling his hair like he didn’t cause the Les Mis fandom to simultaneously combust then be revived then combust again
+Alanna R. probably a fight about who should lead the fandom into the deeps of hell, because as we all know, this ship will be the death of the human race
AnnaDreamFactory When I first heard this, I paused it right after "love of mine", because I had never heard this song before, and oh my gosh Grantaire singing a love song. So when I heard "someday you will die", I paused it again, and started freaking out. Maybe NOT a love song, then. And then, with the next lyric... I about had to leave the room. I had to take a break. xD xD
I remember seeing sonething about this like and going, "Oh! I'll watch it later," and then I forgot about it. It was in my recommend section and I was like, "What the hell, let's watch it," but didnt remember he was Grantaire. Hr said this line and I screeched because, "OH MY GOD IT'S GRANTAIRE, HOW DID I NOT KNOW?!"
So, like, I know this is all Enjoltaire-y, but can we just take a moment to appreciate how sweet and lovely this song is, not to mention his VOICE??? Gorgeous.
This popped up in my feed again today and is still one of the most feral things I've seen an actor do to a fandom. Absolutely unhinged of you, mate. Thanks
I legit didn't even know this was George Blagden until he started changing the words and I was like "wait a bit, those aren't the words.... wait... holy crap that's a les mis reference... HOLY CRAP THAT'S GRANTAIRE!" XD
Love of mine, One day you will die, But I'll be close behind, I'll follow you into the dark No blinding lights, Or tunnels to gates of white, Just our hands clasped so tight, Waiting for the hint of a spark If heaven and hell decide, That they both are satisfied, Illuminate the "No"s on their Vacancy signs, If there's no one beside you, When your soul embarks, I will follow you into the dark In revolution'ry school, As vicious as Musain rule, I got my feelings bruised, By the leader in red And I propped the bar, As he told me, "R, you’re good-for-nothing, fool."

I still can't believe he actually did this. Mr Blagden, you are the captain of our ship! (And it doesn't metter how much we love E/R - we all know it's impossible to ship them more then George does.)
I think the main reason he ships them so hard is because his whole script must have gone something like " Grantaire stares longingly and lovingly at Enjolras" "RED" "BLACK" "Grantaire stared longingly and lovingly at Enjolras"
--In Revolutionary school, as vicious as Musain rule, I got my feelings bruised by the Leader in Red and I propped to the bar, as he told me "R, you're good for nothing, fool" and I hear every word he said-- HOW COULD YOU DO THIS GEORGE YOU SHIP HARDER THAN ANYONE OF US!
+Zuzana Mlcochova he is singing from the perspective of Grantaire alias, "R" of les Miserables if im not wrong . A lot of people love the relationship Enjorlas and his character have so...yeah.
+susanka susan He plays Grantaire in the Les Miserables movie. The book that it is based off of shows that Grantaire is obsessed with Enjolras who is the "leader in red" as they try to start a revolution. Their "headquarters" is the cafe Musain and Enjolras hates Grantaire because he thinks Grantaire is a useless drunk.
I'm currently reading a fanfic about that! Grantaire has a RUclips account where he does music, but it's anonymous. And of course, Enjolras (who he has a crush on, obviously) is his biggest fan, without knowing that it's actually Grantaire.
@@saphira4366 read a similar one. R had a channel where he was basically ...shitposting? What's the term? Anyways, E's got one about social judtice, of course, and when R finds that there's a dude on the internet who actually cares about all this so much, he can't help himself and starts arguing with him in the comments. ...it wasn't bad :')
every now and then i get hit with how much i miss George Blagden’s voice and have to come back to this video so i can properly cry over it all over again
I just had the worst day of my entire life and spent the last hour crying and I couldn’t calm down so I scrolled all the way down my likes and found this from years ago and halfway through I stopped crying. This video has healing energy I swear
ellen m if it helps, the original french describes a "coup de foudre", a clap of thunder, as he dies. However, that is also a french euphemism for falling in love☺️
Elliana A. K. Fun Fact! The reason this video is titled “?” Is because when Victor Hugo sent his first copy of Les Misérables to his editor, the attached letter simply said “?” The editor wrote back, his letter only saying “!” in reply.
I thought i was over this fandom. And then barricade day happened. And now that i've finally teared myself away from Drink with Me, well, it's only to come here instead :')
THIS is EXACTLY what I did just now. Watched all the gayest "Drink Witth Me"s and then... went straight here to make it a plaster to my feels *sobs anyway*
Anyone wanna get even more broken ? Legend says that after Les Misérables were published, Hugo wrote to his publisher the shortest letter in history, with *only an interrogative sign*, as if he was saying "so did you enjoy my book?" and the publisher answered with "!". George knew perfectly well what he was doing. I will never be ok again.

I wonder how many times through the years I have watched this? Must be a hundred times at least. And every. damn. time. I just... loose it? This is too precious and fantastic and George is so gorgeous and his voice is so beautiful and... I just think this is the most magical thing I've seen. No joke. I was 21 when this came and I'm turning 30 this year and I still remember the day he posted this. And I'll probably return to this until the day I die.
Gabriela They really didn't give his talent enough acknowledgment. I mean, he sang better than 70 percent of the cast and he didn't even really get a full solo.
So true! I was so dissapointed because he was cast so well yet didn't get much screen time or any solo time, expecially in Drink With Me. Grantaire is one of my favourite characters in the book and stage musical so this was disaapointing to see. I had to practically search for Graintaire in every frame.
Here I was thinking "I feel like having my heart broken a bit" and went back to this, only to see the 10 year anniversary? I guess my soul knows. Thank you, George, please never take this down.
six years later.. i'm late to the enjoltaire fans ;-; i never saw this until a few days ago?? it's so beautiful, i showed all my friends but no one else i know except family has seen/listened/read les miserables.. they don't understand T^T
Love of mine one day you will die but I'll be close behind- I'll follow you into the dark Me: Oh, nice cover In revolutionary school Me: Les Mis? I got my feelings bruised by a leader in red Me: What? And I propped the bar Me: Grantaire? As he told me R, you good for nothing fool Me: No! *starts crying* And I heard every word that he said Me: *sobs loudly*
george: love of mine, one day you will die, but i'll be close behind... me: but... but.. george: our hands clasps so tight.... me: why you do this to me? george: i got my feelings bruised by the leader in red..... me: *cries* george: I heard every word he said.... me: *in between sobs* I'm just so sad...
Happy Barricade Day 2024! This drove the entire fandom insane when it came out, I remember the day it dropped (god I feel old). Not only does George have a beautiful voice, he’s a fantastic dramatic actor. Les Mis, of course, but if you ever watched the BBC show Versailles he was FANTASTIC in that as King Louis XIV. We’re lucky to have him
The Les Misérables fandom can fangirl over Grantaire and Enjolras all they want, no one ship them like George Blagden himself
It's so funny how he ships them the most, yet he his Grantaire. Gotta love George (:
***** I mean he just did a freaking fansong about enjoltaire !
Cindy S. true 😂
It's so true!!!
Youre wrong! Victor hugo ships them the hardest
George Blagden and Victor Hugo are officially the Co-Captains of S.S. Enjoltaire

@@celestesmith8596 me too, but I think he'd love this video.
Enjolras should read this and feel sorry for hurting poor R....
@@celestesmith8596 I'm French and I specialised in litterature in my studies so needless to say I had to study Hugo extensively. Actually one of my finals was about him, and another year-long project was all about him hi slife and his work. And if there is one thing I learned is that he knew oh so well what he was doing. there is no way he didn't think of all the romantic subtext (not always so subtile tbh) between Enjolras and Grantaire, that was totally on purpose haha
now mind you, at the time there was a thing called "l'amitié amoureuse" (meaning somehing like "love friendship" or "romantic friendship") and it used to describe a friendship that is closer, both physically and emotionnally but without any s**ual relation whatsoever. This is why there are rumors or allegations that Marie-Antoinette was bisexual , and it could be what Grantaire feels for Enjolras. But I'm pretty sure he's in love with him and Victor Hugo wrote it this way for a reason imo x)
I wonder if George realizes that:
A- He broke an entire fandom
B- this is a rite of passage for all new Les Mis babies.
He’s the nicest guy ever to a fandom. He did the absolute best thing a guy in his situation could have possibly done.
if you look at the grin at the end, this man knows exactly what he's done

@@kateb1761 I was about te reply to my comment coz I re-read the original lyrics then I noticed that it's different from what he's singing.
Wasn't Grantaire supposed to be unattractive? I mean seriously? George Blagden? Did they even try??
probably not lol
the only thing "frightfully ugly" in this video are the surprise les mis feels
Les Walking Dr. Musical Lover same
I think standards of beauty differ from time to time. Cleopatra was considered to be a beauty but new evidence suggests she was actually average..
Beauty is very subjective.
(I think Cleopatra was only described as primarily beautiful after her death by those trying to discredit her achievements)
At about 1:02, right before he goes into the second verse, there's a tiny, tiny smirk. He knows what he's done. He knows exactly what he's done.
I saw that! I was showing it to my friend and I was like “look at him! That is the smirk of a man who know exactly what he’s doing and what he’s giving us.”
Is he really into this or just sadistic we’ll never know
@@edieduffy6050 I think he’s really into this😂
Reasons I am like Grantaire:
references classics and mythology constantly
painfully bisexual
in love with Enjolras
-bad at math
-“particularly ugly”
honestly same
same, but I am pansexual
I wonder if George ever thinks of this video and starts giggling and twirling his hair like he didn’t cause the Les Mis fandom to simultaneously combust then be revived then combust again
Sometimes I remember this exists and I just whisper "what the hell" and then imagine a shipping fight between George and Victor Hugo.
Victor Hugo, shipping founder since the 1800's
Except there would be no fight because they're in total agreement.
+Alanna R. probably a fight about who should lead the fandom into the deeps of hell, because as we all know, this ship will be the death of the human race
They will probably rule as joint queens of hell.
But why would they fight?
the moment I first heard him sing "i got my feelings bruised by the leader in red" was the moment i died tbh

I wonder whether George ever just sits reading the comments, smirking..
I would😂 lol every comment on here is hes so beautiful.
I wish! Pop corn/blanket/sofa 😂
So, like, I know this is all Enjoltaire-y, but can we just take a moment to appreciate how sweet and lovely this song is, not to mention his VOICE??? Gorgeous.
Can we just appreciate that he changed an existing song to better fit Enjolras' and Grantaire's relationship?
Because I'm crying.
Also low-key Athelstan and Ragnar's relationship 😭😭😭😭
I thought that was Athelstan. Wow! I did not know he could sing
This video is a historical monument and must be preserved at all costs

he ships enjolras and grantaire even more than victor hugo and i think thats amazing

One day you will die,
But I'll be close behind,

Just our hands clasped so tight,
Waiting for the hint of a spark
If heaven and hell decide,
That they both are satisfied,
Illuminate the "No"s on their Vacancy signs,
If there's no one beside you,
When your soul embarks,
I will follow you into the dark
In revolution'ry school,
As vicious as Musain rule,
I got my feelings bruised,
By the leader in red
And I propped the bar,
As he told me,
"R, you’re good-for-nothing, fool."
And I heard every word that he said

Drove it? More like bashed it

I think the main reason he ships them so hard is because his whole script must have gone something like " Grantaire stares longingly and lovingly at Enjolras"
"RED"
"BLACK"
"Grantaire stared longingly and lovingly at Enjolras"
But the fact that R was supposed to appear to hate E in the original script and this man corrects it.

okay so like this was so fucking iconic and lives in my head rent free
he really said fuck it im in in a motion picture movie ima use that influence to validate a couple thousand gay teenagers like literal icon
Does he know how much he's hurting us? I think he knows. That smirk... HE KNOWS. But seriously, I love him so much. He's the perfect Grantaire.
He knows perfectly well how much he's hurting us. Look at his Instagram. He has E/R on there. He knows, man.
He won't tell us his tumblr. Just look for the page that's 392.5% E/R. He knows. Frost Whisker
Frost Whisker does he really have e/g on his instagram??? :o
(Gblagden) and yes. You have to scroll down, but he has it.
Wait he has a Tumblr wtf
Can we please get a cover with Aaron Tveit now? Pretty please? :)
oh my gosh that would be amazing
I need that
We will never be able to ship Enjoltaire more than George Blagden does.
No one will ever top this ship. I love this fandom.
Aww he's so talented, I wish they had kept his part in "drink with me" in les mis :(
Gabriela They really didn't give his talent enough acknowledgment. I mean, he sang better than 70 percent of the cast and he didn't even really get a full solo.
So true! I was so dissapointed because he was cast so well yet didn't get much screen time or any solo time, expecially in Drink With Me. Grantaire is one of my favourite characters in the book and stage musical so this was disaapointing to see. I had to practically search for Graintaire in every frame.
Gabriela That verse gave his character so much depth!
P.s. My mom read me les mis when I was six or seven and I asked if Grantaire loved Enjolras... I shipped it before I knew what shipping was!
What did she tell you?
She read you the entirety of the brick? That’s a lot of pages for a little kid
@@michefulkerson736 Im readingbit know, im still in the first 50 pages
She read you the brick when you were SEVEN?!
Me as a mum
Here I was thinking "I feel like having my heart broken a bit" and went back to this, only to see the 10 year anniversary? I guess my soul knows. Thank you, George, please never take this down.
not the grantaire the world deserved, but the one we needed.
Every 6 months I come back to this song and play it on repeat for 3 days straight. I love you George!
s a m e
Same
THAT FUCKING LIL SMILE AT THE END AS IF HE KNOWS EXACTLY HOW MUCH HE HURT US
he also does a tiny smile before he starts the part with the changed lyrics and I want to die
homeslice it has been 8 GODDAMN years and i still come back to this and YEARN on the regular.
six years later.. i'm late to the enjoltaire fans ;-; i never saw this until a few days ago?? it's so beautiful, i showed all my friends but no one else i know except family has seen/listened/read les miserables.. they don't understand T^T
WHY AM I JUST FINDING OUT ABOUT THIS NOW THIS IS LITERALLY THE SOUNDTRACK TO ENJOLTAIRE IM CRYING
Well I'm finding about it only NOW so I guess it could still be worse xDD
@@markyjanu10 I'm finding about it NOW so I'm sure it could still be even worse hahaha
@@imanwtk are you also spending an unhealthy amount of time replaying it and grinning like a loon? Because I sure did back when I found it xD
@@markyjanu10 oh my god YES AHAHAHAH I KEPT REPLAYING THE PART WHEN HE CHANGED THE LYRICS
@@imanwtk haha Yeah, we're an enjoltaire mess :'D
Love of mine one day you will die but I'll be close behind- I'll follow you into the dark
Me: Oh, nice cover
In revolutionary school
Me: Les Mis?
I got my feelings bruised by a leader in red
Me: What?
And I propped the bar
Me: Grantaire?
As he told me R, you good for nothing fool
Me: No! *starts crying*
And I heard every word that he said
Me: *sobs loudly*
+Abigail Davis I know! :)
+Abigail Davis I know! :)
*ME*
Me
Lol i looked at the videos date and said 'oh just a year after Les Mis, interesting...'
8 years and a Grantaire tattoo later, this firmly still fucks me up. I s2g Grantaire actors just have a gift for giving Good Enjoltaire Content
every once in a while I find my way back here for this legendary performance from our lord and savior of Enjoltaire 🙏
"happy" barricade day !!
"After the resurrection Jesus made a new life for himself making beautiful music "
SleepyBowie this is the greatest
am I the only one in love with George Blagden
You aren't ;)
Nope!
Louisa Eljoras too
of course not
Samantha S we're too much😂
This is still the best thing to ever happen to a fandom, ever.
10 years of this.... thank you for making us all lose our heads ❤️💚
I GOT MY FEELINGS BRUISED BY THE LEADER IN RED
DID YOU JUST...
Yes he did 😌
It would be great if George Blagden published his version of "Drink with me" considering that it was cut in the movie.
every month i come back to listen and every month i am emotionally unavailable for the rest of the day
Victor Hugo has been spinning in his grave ever since this video was uploaded I hope George realizes that
I need this as a duet with Aaron Tveit!
Does Aaron know about e/r?
Of course Aaron knows about e/R
Bbcat 22 What makes you so sure? I ask because this is a dude who thinks Enjolras and Marius were lifelong best friends and spells pink 'pinck'.
THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS now my lifelong wish has just been set
Minju Seuk, it would be heaven
he is one talented priest
Aiman Rockefeller was* :@
Sezen Sever DON'T YOU DARE
Alana Craib Spoilers ;)
+Aiman Rockefeller Why Floki, why do you kill Priest.
PS: --Warning-- Spoiler =P
+PYRO-SJ -63 I'm halfway through season 3. I hate you a little bit for that.
10 YEARS LATER... Im still crying
Who's here 2020 blowing away the pandemic gloomy mood? God I love this singing of yours, it's like waves, ocean and wind! Thank you!
"Our hands clasped so tight" please tell me I'm not the only one who thought of "do you permit it"????
I DID
THATS THE FIRST THING I THOUGHT
Amy Mclaughlin where's this from?
THATS THE POINT
Lord Lazy Les Misérables
FIRST THING I THOUGHT
I want this goddamn cover played at my funeral. Or my wedding. Or every day always for the rest of my life.
it's pride month. we should all listen to '?' on repeat
People: George, how much do you ship Enjolras and Grantaire?
George: *YES*
That smile at the end he is so proud of himself and I can't deal with him he is too talented for words!
george: love of mine, one day you will die, but i'll be close behind...
me: but... but..
george: our hands clasps so tight....
me: why you do this to me?
george: i got my feelings bruised by the leader in red.....
me: *cries*
george: I heard every word he said....
me: *in between sobs* I'm just so sad...
+Ariana Engelman (Ferrebear) sAmE
8 years since the movie and still waiting for your duet with Aaron Tveit T-T
Your R is unforgetable ❤
Which movie are you guys talking about, I came after watching Vikings and became a big fan of his
@@deconstjohn1136 les misérables!
Happy Barricade Day 2024! This drove the entire fandom insane when it came out, I remember the day it dropped (god I feel old). Not only does George have a beautiful voice, he’s a fantastic dramatic actor. Les Mis, of course, but if you ever watched the BBC show Versailles he was FANTASTIC in that as King Louis XIV. We’re lucky to have him
