"I Dreamed a Dream" is a song from the musical Les Misérables. It is a solo that is sung by the character Fantine during the first act. The song had a resurgence in popularity when Susan Boyle performed it for Britain's Got Talent.
There are two famous versions of it - one by Ruthie Hernshell, who sang it on the Tenth Anniversary Concert Recording, and another by Lea Salonga who sang it on the 25th anniversary concert. I want your opinion which version is better - videos are below:
I personally prefer Ruthie Hernshell. I like her voice more and she just seems more natural, Lea is a horrible over-actor.
P.S I didn't include Susan Boyle's version because she is more well-known and would automatically get more votes without people even listening to Ruthie or Lea.
