Revolution Lyrics:
[Verse]
Can you see it? The worst is over
The monsters in my head are afraid of love
Fallen people, listen up
It's never too late to change your luck

[Before Chorus]
So don't let them steal your light (Eh, eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh)
Don't let them get you down (Eh, eh-eh, eh-eh, eh-eh)
There's light on the other side
And you'll see all the raindrops fall behind you
It's a revolution, make it out tonight
It's a revolution

[Chorus]
It's a reva, rev
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
It's a reva, rev
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

Do you hear the people singing? Singing the songs of angry men? It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again! When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums, then life begins when tomorrow comes! /Hugh Jackman, Academy Award® winner Russell Crowe, and Anne Hathaway star in this critically acclaimed adaptation of the epic musical phenomenon. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells the story of ex-convict Jean Valjean (Jackman), who is hunted for decades by the ruthless police officer Javert (Crowe) after violating his parole. When Valjean agrees to care for the young daughter Cosette of factory worker Fantine (Hathaway), their lives change forever. This gripping story is a timeless testament to the survival of the human spirit and "an unforgettable experience" /@UniversalPictures

QF:
A bit bumpy at the beginning, but then classically philosophical, thank you, Ms. Prof.Lea Ypi! There were agenda questions in the first interview (Belgian ARTE in Albania – here's the end) and from presenter Teutsch about Pegida and the like – but great class, she doesn't take your stick ("-"stick"-")! She is poised, self-assured, and has style! Not to mention her command of the language; Immanuel Kant would have been delighted with her. I'd love to see her again!
