Im inspired to share this clip when I watched the sensational rendition of the song from one of the contestants of the popular UK talent show, Britain Got Talent. Her name is Susan Boyle, a Scottish 47 years old that impressed the judges, including Simon Cowell himself and a big surprise to everyone.
Well, there is so much talks over Youtube channel now after Susan's clip was posted this week. It is annoying to read comparisons between Lea Salonga who sung it in Broadway and Susan who just starting her quest to a new career. Frankly speaking, there is no comparison at all - it is like comparing an apple and pineapple. The message of the song is really beautiful and while watching Susan, it reminded me of the musical that Ive watched live in West End two years ago and Im still hoping that I will be able to watch Lea singing this song as she did it on this video, maybe in Broadway...

A celebration for Pinoys - courtesy of Lea as Fantine (Les Mis)
Well, after giving birth to a baby girl two years ago, Lea (aka Miss Saigon) did perform in Broadway again, playing Fantine in Les Miserables production. She will explain why it is a celebration for her and her countrymen/women in the Philippines.
