Très Bon: Les Misérables (Golden Globe Nominated)
It’s hard for me to remember a time when the song “Do You Hear The People Sing” has not been among the top rotation of songs that just constantly live in my head. I’m not very political and I’m far too afraid of being arrested to ever actually participate in a sit in; nonetheless, I have a fantasy about taking a stand for some injustice and just when defeat seems imminent and those that stand with me seem about to cave, I break out loud and clear with: (see video below) The truth of the matter, I, like so many others have listened to Claude-Michel Schönberg and Alain Boublil‘s score…
