Michael Ball is Marius and will always be Marius to me similar to how Valjean will always be Colm but to an even more rediculous degree

It tends to be cast as a lyric tenor. He has an operatic voice. That nearly changes the song into a hymn or a prayer! It definitely takes it to a new level! I'm so thrilled and blessed to have stumbled onto this rendition! It's magical!

@dmiracomeny5511 3 жыл бұрын
Nick Jonas is not a bad singer, he was just majorly outclassed in that production. Think about it: Marius is usually singing opposite either Éponine, Cosette, or Enjolras. So in that production, he tended to be paired with Samantha Barks, Katie Hall, and Ramin Karimloo. Along with Alfie Boe at the point where Valjean tells Marius who he really is, and Hadley Fraser as Grantaire during ABC Cafe. So, majorly outclassed.
