Do you hear the people sing?

Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes!
Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Then join in the fight that will give you the right to be free!!
Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes!
Will you give all you can give so that our banner may advance
Some will fall and some will live will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France!
Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men?
It is the music of a people who will not be slaves again!
When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums
There is a life about to start when tomorrow comes

This song from the musical "Les Miserables" has been running thru my mind the whole day... and i've been crazy enough to be singing it at work. Come to think of it, it fits the mood of the guides here! Remember we are the S'pore Pavilion slaves? hahaha...

I used to be crazy over this musical. Learnt the songs during my secondary school choir days. Watched the musical twice. Bought the cassette (CD was too expensive during those times), later bought the LD, then DVD. Tried to play the pieces on piano as well. This is how crazy i was over it! Wonder why my craze for it started today... straight after i reached home from work i started searching for its mp3. Failed, but managed to get Realplayer version. Not of good sound quality, but at least i still get to listen to it! Do listen to it if you can... i'm sure you'd like it too!
