In Celebration of the Human Voice - The Essential Musical Instrument

A Little Fall Of Rain

From the musical

Les Miserables

Music by Claude-Michel Schonberg and Alain Boublil

"A Little Fall of Rain" is the song of Éponine's death. Éponine, the eldest daughter of the Thénardiers, she tells Marius that she loves him and dies in his arms. Marius's reaction to her death in the musical is quite different from that in the novel; in the book, Marius does not really care much about Éponine, whereas in the musical they are portrayed as best friends, and he and his fellow students mourn her death, "fighting in her name", Marius being quite devastated by his best friend's death, even crying while holding her in his arms, and refusing to let go when his fellow students try to take her body away, and refusing the comfort of Enjolras, and continuing to cry over his best friend being gone forever. The title lyric is often misinterpreted; she thinks she is wet because of rain, Marius sees it's blood from her wound(s) that's "everywhere".
