Les Miserables. Incredible.


I had the privilege to go see this incredible movie last night. It was incredible. I loved all the fond memories (follow link to another post) it brought back of when I was in Les Miserables. A wonderful aspect of being in a musical is that all of the music in engrained in my memory. Even though I haven't listened to the music for two years all the words came flooding back to my mind. Beautiful words. I am so happy to remember them all.
"Do you hear the people sing?
Lost in the valley of the night
it is the music of a people who are climbing to the light
for the wretched of the earth there is a flame that never dies
even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise!
We will live again in freedom in the garden of the Lord
we will walk behind the plowshare
we will put away the sword 
the chains will be broken and all men will have their reward!
Will you join in our crusade who will be strong and stand with me
somewhere beyond the barricade there is a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing?
Say do you hear the distant drums?
it is the music that we bring when tomorrow comes!
tomorrow comes!"

Please go see this movie. You will be riveted and blissfully lost in wonder of its beautiful tale.
