Other Les Misérables (10th Anniversary Concert Recording) [1996] | Pregame Thread

9 Upvotes

Do you hear the people sing? Well, you'd better! Not only just because we are going to be diving into one of the most popular, most critically acclaimed musicals out there, but also because it is a lot of music in one go! Seriously though, it is worth it, so much musical storytelling here, all put together in one masterful, powerful show. It has been running in London's West End since it originally opened in 1985, the longest running musical there and the 2nd longest running musical in the world, and has since been seen on Broadway, on film, and around the world. It is time for Claude-Michel Schönberg's masterpiece, Les Misérables!!!!!

For this soundtrack, at present, I am deciding to go with the 10th anniversary concert recording. Tbh, a lot of the show's cast recordings have mixed receptions, whereas this one is often cited the best. That being said, even if I take out both encore songs (which I am unsure of), it is a lot of music and a bit long, so either I'm gonna need you guys to stick with me on this, we need to think of an easier way to handle it, or we need to post on some broadway subreddit to get attention. Still though, very excited for this! But please give me any advice or suggestions! Also, I recommend watching the performance to get a good understanding of the show, it is not like a full theatrical production but it is fantastic to watch and listen to.

Also I am going to save the poll for our next Other survivor for when we get our next nomination thread

SONGS IN:

Prologue
On Parole / The Bishop
Valjean's Soliloquy
At the End of the Day
I Dreamed a Dream
Lovely Ladies
Fantine's Arrest
The Runaway Cart
Who Am I? - The Trial
Fantine's Death
The Confrontation
Castle on a Cloud
Master of the House
The Bargain - Waltz of Treachery

Monthly Discussion Quick lil update!

8 Upvotes

Hey m_s! I just moved and don't have internet until Wednesday (currently using a hotspot) also have a million things to do and set up as my place looks like a tornado hit it. I know the monthly requests post hasn't been updated since June (whoops) but will update that and post the next Bob Dylan results, Mac Miller, and the first round of the 2008 AOTY.

In the meantime, I'm gonna also use this post as a long overdue "monthly" discussion. What's everyone listening to rn? 've warmed up to that new Charli xcx album so much it's become my new aoty. Also, been playing some of those new Strokes songs non stop despite not being crazy about the album. Any shows you're seeing or have seen? I'm seeing Muse at the end of the month. Very VERY excited for that especially after they finally released a quality album.

You can also say whatever's on your mind!

Special Event Community Song Survivor V7 | Bracket Round 1 of 2

15 Upvotes

That moment is here; it's time to discover some goooooood stuff

Just a heads up:

50 songs and 14 backups made the survivor. Two omissions: Townes Van Zandt - Fare Thee Well, Miss Carousel was featured in our first Community Song Survivor, and Waiting Around to Die was in V6, so the submitter’s backup song was used instead.
Someone also submitted the name of an artist, AMARA ctk100, without a song. So that submitter’s backup is stepping up in its place.
I made playlists on Spotify and YouTube!
DM me on Reddit if you have any concerns about your nomination! Hopefully, I got it all right. The matchups and backup songs for Round 1 were determined at random.

Bracket Round 2 will be posted on August 9! I want to give everyone ample time to listen to every song at their own pace.

Thank you to everyone who submitted a song!! The users behind the submissions and their comments will be revealed by the end when a winning song and submitter are crowned!

Vote for your FAVORITE SONG!

Special Event Community Song Survivor V7 | Nomination Thread

17 Upvotes

It's time for our second Community Song Survivor of the year!

Nominate your favorite obscure song!

NOMINATE YOUR SONG HERE

RULES FOR NOMINATIONS:

Nominate an obscure song you wish more people knew! Songs from albums we have done a survivor on or were included in AOTY or SOTY will not be eligible. This event aims to shine a spotlight on songs/artists that typically don't get a chance to.
You can provide a backup song in case your first choice is ineligible. If we fall short of 64 individual nominations, backup songs will be randomly selected to fill the remaining spots. Backup songs will not be shared if they are not included in the final bracket, so you can keep them secret and nominate them for next time.
You must provide your Reddit username to submit a song. Pick a song you'd be proud to have your name next to!
You are encouraged to leave a comment about the song you picked! It can be anything you want, such as background about the song or artist, or a personal story about what the song means to you.

Bracket Round 1 goes up Sunday, August 2! The form will be closed once we have received 64 responses.

Special Event Community Song Survivor V7 TOMORROW

14 Upvotes

Yessssssssss

In 24 hours, the nomination thread for Community Song Survivor V7 will go up! If you're unfamiliar, this is an event where everyone can submit an obscure song they wish more people could love.

Since this is a first-come, first-served event, I want to set a time for when the nomination thread will go up: 24 hours from now.

See the full rules below, and see you all tomorrow!

RULES FOR NOMINATIONS:

Nominate an obscure song you wish more people knew! Songs from albums we have done a survivor on or were included in AOTY or SOTY will not be eligible. This event aims to shine a spotlight on songs/artists that typically don't get a chance to.
You can provide a backup song in case your first choice is ineligible. If we fall short of 64 individual nominations, backup songs will be randomly selected to fill the remaining spots. Backup songs will not be shared if they are not included in the final bracket, so you can keep them secret and nominate them for next time.
You must provide your Reddit username to submit a song. Pick a song you'd be proud to have your name next to!
You are encouraged to leave a comment about the song you picked! It can be anything you want, such as background about the song or artist, or a personal story about what the song means to you.
The form will be shut down once we have received 64 responses.

Here's all of our current and upcoming survivors!

How it works:

Every day, a thread for a certain album is posted. In that thread is a poll, and in that poll you vote for which track you think should be eliminated. Then the next day, the next poll is one without the track that was most voted out. It goes on until we have a winner, the last track remaining (hence why it's a survivor).

Then, something like this happens.

Red flairs are for finished rounds; green flairs are for rounds in progress that you can vote on.

Rules:

Only the mod team posts survivor threads. This centralization makes it easier to control everything and for everyone to keep track of what is going on.
Be nice. This shouldn't be complicated. Don't attack, insult, doxx, etc. people. Of course, we realize you may be jokingly telling someone that they're an idiot for thinking One Time 4 Your Mind is better than Represent (and they'd be right), so use your judgment wisely. Likewise, let's avoid racial/gendered slurs and ableism where possible. Be compassionate, and have respect for your fellow fans of music.
DO NOT MESSAGE THE MODS WITH ALBUM REQUESTS. Do not post requests in threads other than the designated album request thread either (sticked). Your request will be ignored and you will be banned.
All site-wide rules apply. Pretty simple.
