Not titling this with song lyrics; you're welcome.

According to my ~highly scientific~ poll in my last post, approx. 30-40% of all Dreamwidth users have had songs from Les Miserables stuck in their heads ever since the movie came out.

I don't suppose those of you who are getting more active in the fandom would consider, as a kindness, "earworm warnings" for any quotes from the lyrics (including song titles)?

//just kidding

//mostly

//although it would be nice to be able to go more than 24 hours without hearing the people sing in the background of all I do. I've kind of forgotten what that's like.

Although I have gotten quite a lot of cleaning done while unable to concentrate on anything but listening to the soundtrack on repeat, so there's that.

(I tried putting on "Once More With Feeling" instead today; it only took about half an hour before One More Day was back.

I haven't tried Cabaret yet; that's the nuclear option.)

ETA: Warning: lyrics in comments.

I think you'll find it's about Marius. There are very few scenes that aren't about Marius, he's actually pretty clear on this.

(I do love him storming in in 'One Day More' and dramatically proclaiming his allegiances to no response from anyone.)

...god I used those lines as chapter headers in a Harry Potter fic once.

Ahaha, really? That's beautiful.

Gosh, that would actually be glorious. I would read that in a heartbeat.
