Do you like any songs in the movie Les Miserables?

youless @youless (114117) • Guangzhou, China 17 Mar 13

Les Miserables is a musical movie. Do you have your favorite song in this movie? I especially like the song On My Own. It can really describe the heart for the one who is in love. Since it is a secret love, it is a little sad.

Musicals being made into movies, repeat pet peeve

TheRealDawn @dawnald (85137) • Shingle Springs, California 4 Jan 13

I complained when they made Mamma Mia into a movie that, as fun as it was, the singing was just not that good. Why, oh why do they have to put big stars into movie musicals instead of people who can actually sing? I love Pierce...
