Well, it's not really, (see "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" for that one) but a random and strange question occurred to me yesterday evening:
If "Les Miserables" (the musical) was reinvented into a modern day musical with an entirely new soundtrack, what would be some of the new songs sung by the main characters?
Now, I adore the Les Mis musical, PASSIONATELY, but, I admit... the weird question posed by my bizarre subconscious intrigues me.... (No, I'm not crazy; HONEST :D).
It's really, REALLY hard to decide!! Just for fun, I've decided to, on my free time, find some songs that would work OKAY with some of the characters and their stories. Like I said, it's REALLY hard!! I've never thought of another song for a character in the Les Mis musical, BESIDES what they originally sing... it's difficult, but I'm determined! I'm not sure it's even possible, because the original is SO iconic, and SO memorable and beautiful, I'm sure if I should/could/can 'reinvent' it, even if it's just for fun; I'll try, and see what I come up with...
So far, I'm sorta toying with "Just a Dream" (Nelly cover) by Sam Tsui and Christina Grimmie and "What Hurts the Most" (Yanou's Candelight Remix) by Cascada... I'm not sure who gets what at the time being, but, for now, those two are on my virtual playlist.
Over and out. Rinse. Repeat.
Peace out, y'all :)
