Nick: "Look at me I can sing" Ramin: "Here hold my mask"

Ramin and Samantha are just on another level, they are the absolute pinnacle

Nick Jonas: "my place-is here-i fight-with youuUuUuuU" Alfie Boe: "OOOOOONEE DAAAAAY MOOOOOOOOORE"

The fact that Jenny Galloway is the 10th and 25th 'dream cast' for Madame Thénardier speaks volumes about how much she fucking nails it.

The Conductor jumping at 3:15 is amazing

Enjolras, manly man to the core, he's like "Jonas, hold my beer while I show you how to sing!"

Nick is not a bad singer but this musical is not for him. Look how the principal chorus ate his volume.

I would follow Ramin anywhere, the way he busts in 😂

Norm Lewis has a voice like butter and I want him to do audio books.

This has always been my favourite song in the entire show. I just adore how all of the harmonies gradually come together to create a whopper of a tune!

The ending polyphony and the harmony of the last 3 words kill me every time. I relisten to it like 10 times just so in awe of how beautiful it sounds. It makes me sort of irrationally upset that something so beautiful can exist and that a person could make it when the world can be so horrible at the same time.

Jean Valjean just keeps singing ONE DAY MOREEEEE

Samatha is just so fantastic, she’s been my favourite Eponine ever since seeing her in the movie!

I'm sorry but Jonas at 2:37 cracks me up every time. Just the "I did not live until toDAAAAY" Also Ramin Karimloo is a great Enjolras!

nick jonas isn't a bad singer by any means but he isn't a theatrical/operatic vocalist. he gets completely eclipsed by everyone else to an almost embarrassing extent

Everyone fauns over Ramin, Samantha and Lewis but Alfie Boe is an amazing Jean Valjean and I feel like nobody talks abt it enough

Not me over here gushing/drooling over Samantha Barks. She has a stunning voice that I could listen to all day..plus shes absolutely gorgeous

Now my top two broadway performances come from one man: Ramin Karimloo. 🙂

I was there! The most magical evening, Nick did his best. You have to look at the whole evening. Magical.

Even though Phantom is easily his magnum opus, Ramin Karimloo feels like he was born to play Enjolras, if that makes sense.

Team Eponine Forever

So lucky that I got to see Alfie play Valjean on Broadway, he was so amazing!

Other comments have already pointed this out: Nick Jonas is not a bad singer, but he is definitely not one built for theatre or for this musical. He sounds whiny and forced. And putting him aside Alfie Boe, Ramin Karimloo, among others, is just insane casting decision. Especially when fucking Hadley Fraser is *right there* and somehow was not cast as Marius. Edit 1: Nick Jonas's voice definitely benefits from a bit of post-production tweak. If you watch the version recorded from the audience (also here on YT), Jonas voice is completely and utterly buried when sung together with Ramin Karimloo and Alfie Boe.

Each to his own, but through the literally thousands of musicals created over the century, Les Miz is the greatest. Theire aren't many absolutes in the world, this is one.

Wonderful. This has been and always will be my favorite musical. I went with my mother when I was small to a local production of Les Mis and was breathless. I became obsessed, I then remember my first time watching the 25th anniversary so years ago and I was gripped. I only wish it were easier to view it in its entirety again. Copy rights and strikes aside. If only it were on one streaming service.

This would’ve been a perfect cast if it wasn’t for Nick Jonas. He’s not a bad singer but definitely wasn’t right for this role.

And that my friends, is how you finish an act! Also, if you listen very carefully at 2:24 you can hear my heart breaking.

the fact that alfie boe had to prolong his “ONE DAY MORE” because jonas ended his “I fight with you” way too early 😭

Incredibly powerful. I'm choked up just watching it on my phone. I can't imagine how it felt being in the audience or the chorus. Bravo!

They really did that. It's was like WOW! the sound and timing was perfection.

I have watched this dozens of times and each time I leave with tears in my eyes! Incredible talents every one of you!

My favourite song from the musical

My senior year of high school we played this as our marching show, brings back a ton of memories

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous 🎉🎉🎉

I could listen to this all day long. An amazing production!!!!

My favorite song from Les Miz. I wish they could somehow combine the 10th and 25th anniversary casts with Michael Ball, Judy Kuhn, Lea Salonga, Ruthie Henshall, and Philip Quast from the 10th, and Ramin Karimloo and Alfie Boe from the 25th.

Les Mis one of my fav musicals ever

I get goosebumps every time I see those flags waving

Alfie has the most exquisite high G. Effortless.

Omg the CHILLS i just felt This is just INCREDIBLE

This still affects me the same way it did back in the late 80's when it first came to Broadway. Was on a trip to New York and all I can say is I cried and got goosebumps then and I still do all these years later. ❤

This and At the End of the Day have been in my head all week. I can't get over how beautiful all the overlapping themes and rhythms are. I haven't actually watched this particular performance yet though I've been listening to it on Spotify. I need to get on that!

Magnificent! All of them! What a song!

ALWAYS. GIVE. ME. GOOSEBUMPS BRAVOO TOALL

Let’s hope this video from this magnificent performance stays up 🙏

Mind-blowing talent here.

25주년이 최고야ㅠㅠ

HAHAHA Jonas the brother yeah ummmm my place is heeeyyyaa hahaha I am dying omg i find it funny lol

Beautiful 🎉🎉🎉

Alfie Boe! Goodness me! 👏🏾

Lea kills it everytime

o nick jonas pode ser um defeito mas é inacreditável como tem o karimloo - boe - lewis em sequência. eu sempre vou ficar chocada com essa sequência dos deuses

Incredible ~

Fantastic!

Goosebumps

chills

So Fabulous.

I just went to see Les Mis and loved it. Goal is to see Ramin perform in real life one day. Why is Nick Jonas there? Did he get lost and wandered on the wrong stage?

I wish I had been able to see Ramon in Love Never Dies. Love this song.

Gives me serious chills... I

Hadley and ramin are my favorite boys

Chills

Absolutely amazing Cosette and Enjolras in this one!!!!!

new age musical, yes they will come with new beats and slick tunes. But this. This should always be regarded with a high form of respect always. There's something operatic yet modern. A bridge towards every musical these days.

Woo! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💕

One day more Another day, another destiny This never-ending road to Calvary These men who seem to know my crime Will surely come a second time One day more I did not live until today How can I live when we are parted? One day more Tomorrow you'll be worlds away And yet with you, my world has started One more day all on my own Will we ever meet again? One more day with him not caring I was born to be with you What a life I might have known And I swear I will be true But he never saw me there One more day before the storm Do I follow where she goes? At the barricades of freedom Shall I join my brothers there? When our ranks begin to form Do I stay, and do I dare? Will you take your place with me? The time is now, the day is here One day more One day more to revolution We will nip it in the bud We'll be ready for these schoolboys They will wet themselves with blood (one day more) Watch 'em run amok Catch 'em as they fall Never know your luck When there's a free for all Here's a little dip There a little touch Most of them are goners So they won't miss much One day to a new beginning Raise the flag of freedom high Every man will be a king Every man will be a king There's a new world for the winning There's a new world to be won Do you hear the people sing? My place is here, I fight with you One day more We will join these people's heroes (I did not live until today) We will follow where they go We will learn their little secrets (how can I live when we are parted?) We will know the things they know One day more Watch 'em run amok (tomorrow you'll be worlds away) Catch 'em as they fall Never know your luck When there's a free-for-all We'll be ready for these schoolboys (and yet with you, my world has started) Tomorrow we'll be far away Tomorrow is the judgment day Tomorrow we'll discover What our God in Heaven has in store One more dawn One more day One day more

Mr. Mackintosh.... Out of all the Mariuses available - around the world - ANY ONE you could have chosen to perform in this monumental Anniversary....and THIS is who you pick? Seriously?

눈물줄줄나네

Ahhhhhhhhh, Ramin 😊

Alfie and Ramin are my absolute favorites!

🙏🏽💙

Phat performance.

Is that one of the Jonas brothers? Who knew!

❤❤❤❤

Plot Twist - Enjolras survives the shooting but his face is heavily wounded, and he crawls to the Catacombs, eventually ending up under the Palais Garnier

Nick Jonas is talented. But not theatre talented. It's a different beast. When Enjolras came in, Ramin ate him alive in one note. His voice gets lost in the mix. Again. He's a great singer. A great pop singer. He doesn't have the force or protection needed. Because he doesn't need it. The reedy voice is perfect for pop. In theatre? You'll get lost and forgotten in the wall of sound.

I'm really happy with Nick Jonas's performance here. Well done!

The really interesting thing about watching this is how had Nick Jonas has to try compared to the rest of the cast. For almost all of them, it’s like they are barely putting in effort to produce such incredible sounds, but Nick looks like he’s gonna drop dead from the effort at any moment trying to keep up and yet failing

I came here to watch without knowing who is who. The cast had definitely put on a magnificent performance. I was surprised to read thru these mean comments of Nick. I mean, come on he sang well!

1:20 Ramin jumps in at last to rescue us from Nick's weak vocals

im actually pleasantly surprised by nick jonas. i didn’t know he had it in him to sing for marius. although he is still not the choice i would have gone for

Ramin❤

Nothing beats the 10th Anniversary. All vocals were powerful. Though i love the voice of Eponine and Cosette here in 25th. But why Jonas, though? 😕

Samantha is first class!

I actually loved Nicks performance it was cool to see him play the role and I think he did a good job :)

No offence but how did Jonas get this role - he was so out of his depth

I know everyone likes to hate on Nick Jonas for even trying to be Marius be he's really not that bad! He does a good job he's just kinda pop-like instead of theatre-y you know?

Does anybody know if this version is on spotify? And if so, can somebody send the link? I can't seem to find it anywhere :(

Nick Jonas won the part and thats that. He contrasts nicely with this cast IMHO

Literally me today, one day before BARBENHEIMER

Oh Nick Jonas…swoon!

Ok

I think Norm Lewis was completely right for this role.

Why all the hate forJonas? Bet none of the "critics" can sing or have stage or mike experience. Like Ramin he showed some emotion. Even boe showed no emotion whatever. But he did break character.

Remember when anniversary concerts celebrated great performers of the actual roles over the years, instead of random celebrities? (I'm not *just* talking about Nick; theres also Matt Lucas)

Leah Salonga and Michael Ball are the best duet, Samatha Bark has learned from Lea's style of singing!

Joe Jonas does an admirable job considering he is a pop singer and not trained in theater. Give him some credit.He certainly didn’t embarrass himself.

One. At. A. Time

I don't doubt that in some capacity Nick Jonas is talented. But putting him on the O2 Arena stage surrounded by actual West End and Broadway alumni is like covering somebody in meat and shoving them in a lions cage. The poor boy was going to be eaten alive.

Nick Jonas was so young to take this on, for better or worse 🤷🏻‍♀️
