You never heard her breathing while singing, and she pronounced each lyrics very clear, so clean.

Just imagine if social media was already existing back then, Lea would have been a bigger star

Her diction is perfect. Consonants are crisps
Perfect pitch
Right amount of emotion
Vowel modification
Voice quality
Musicianship

Lea Salonga deserves the star on Hollywood walk.

She is the best Eponine ever. Why?! Because she does not scream and she does not have vocal fry. Every other Eponine has had vocal fry. And I’ve hated it. I love her version. She’s the best, the absolute best

She respected every word, every note, even
to the last "n" of own. This video should be
used as a teaching lesson on every musical
theater school around the world.

This is undoubtedly the absolute gold standard of this song. And Lea Salonga is THE Eponine! The stylistic parallels between Miss Saigon and Les Mis you have mentioned are obvious, well, both are written by the same composer. Please check out Lea's other performance from Les Mis, like "A little fall of rain" from the same show. She also played the role of Fantine ("I dreamed a dream"). Other performances like the ones of "Don't cry for me, Argentina" or "Too much for one heart" or "Via Dolorosa" are amazing, too. Anyway, Lea Salonga - Queen of Broadway! Greetings from Europe.

and the fact that Ms. Lea's voice now is still crystal clear is just fantastic

Clear crisp diction is unique to Leah Salonga. This is one reason why her voice is very pleasing to listen to. You can understand every word she said.One of the best voices out there.

She was the best Eponine for this song: flawless

Lea graduated at the top of her class from elementary to high school. Then she went to university to become a doctor but fate had other plans for her when she had to drop college for Miss Saigon. And the rest is history.

Perfect Diction. Even if you do not know the song, you will understand the lyrics because the diction is so accurate.

Hmm, I'm not sure if it's a trend or not. Enunciation and Diction are Ms. Salonga's signature.

It’s crazy and weird how vocal coaches break down singing into methods and techniques—yet for most singers who truly love it, the process feels natural. There’s no strict method or formula; it’s simply an expression of personal style.

Her enunciation is clearer than my future 😂

Lea Salonga is the voice of 2 Disney princesses: Jasmine in Aladdin and Fa Mulan in Mulan. Could you react to at least one of those characters?

Its quite funny that you can really see that Lea really done a incredible job with the song from the reactions of vocal coaches @yt.. Everyone is obsessed with her delivery!

Lea had the best education. She is smart. Has been exposed in musical since she was a kid.

No subtitle needed. All her words come out crystal clear
