However, for Anne's version, it gives me the feeling that Fantine is feeling extremely unjust, not really wanting to accept her fate (hence the more expression eg. choking sounds). In my opinion, I think the real Fantine would have been like Ruthie instead of Anne, even though Anne acted+sang really well (just my opinion, please don't bash me ><) Equally impressed :D (Y)History Lovernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-40303504385750153832013-07-26T20:12:02.887+01:002013-07-26T20:12:02.887+01:00Irrelevant.

Which i...Yes, Anne was acting rather than singing. Which is of course what is required when making a movie rather than an album. By someone who is an actress rather than a singer. ( even if she obviously can carry a tune, she still is the former really)<br />As such I think she did an excellent job indeed. :-) Opie Everhttp://www.facebook.com/opie.evernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-38533424213851359242013-03-08T22:32:47.516+00:002013-03-08T22:32:47.516+00:00I think I can agree to further qualify with "...I think I can agree to further qualify with "in pop music." Also in further qualification is the degree of emotion that Anne displayed with her delivery. The tortured depression to the level of choking back tears and that quake in the voice. I would propose that it is impossible to display that degree of emotion while retaining perfect breath support and pinpoint pitch control. If you're feeling the emotion so strongly that you're actually truthfully crying, you've already lost control, and I highly doubt any recording artist outside experimental music would go as far as she did in this. The hyper-emotional delivery worked perfectly for her on screen. The truth of it was beautiful to behold. But her emotions were an extreme, that most musicians don't need to get to in order to make good music.John Sharplinhttp://www.facebook.com/Seraph01972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-16197891866339012272013-03-08T20:40:26.035+00:002013-03-08T20:40:26.035+00:00I am by no means saying a performance needs to be ...I am by no means saying a performance needs to be technically perfect in order to be an awesome performance emotion wise.<br /><br />I am only arguing against the claim the two are mutually exclusive or singers able to deliver all that rare.<br /><br />Personally I am fan of Robert Plant for instance.

I...I think what we are looking at are extreme ends. It is possible to emote while singing and not lose technique but when you truly sell out the way Anne did, its impossible to keep it all there. Anybody who has ever tried singing with tears in their eyes and sinuses can tell you that. Just try not sounding nasally when that happens. Hit your top chest notes? Forget about it. So what Anne did was remarkable.Joelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-2679134425067374032013-03-08T16:39:36.440+00:002013-03-08T16:39:36.440+00:00I wish the great classical singer Sumi Jo had the ...I wish the great classical singer Sumi Jo had the chance to sing that song.Luiz Henrique Oliveirahttp://www.facebook.com/people/Luiz-Henrique-Oliveira/1661795740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341723937148634092.post-10151056826797462202013-03-08T12:17:31.832+00:002013-03-08T12:17:31.832+00:00And one from India
