Because I think she deserves a topic for providing the voice for Mulan(well,Ming Na Wen provided the voice too.) I was already a fan of Lea Salonga before I discovered that she was the singing voice of Mulan. I really liked her voice in the musical Les Misérables(Next to Mulan one of my favorite fandoms) and when I discovered she sang for Mulan, I was like "Eeeep!My two favorites together!" Do you think she did the job well or would you rather have another singer?

I always HAD another singer with having grown up with the German version. So I doubt I can truly judge this. But the calmer songs in this movie never really caught me so much anyway tbh. It was "I'll make a man out of you" that got stuck in the ear, as nice as all the other songs are, they are inferior to this xDDD" *shot*
Which role exactly did she play in Les Mis? I haven't seen the musical yet, and I prolly wouldn't be able to do much with the character name but I know a few of the songs in English and German... xD I'd love to see the musical itself one day, but it's not currently anywhere in my country.

Yeah, Ill make a man out of you really does get stuck in your mind,sometimes I can't help but sing along but reflection still is a really beautiful song. I haven't seen the musical either since it also doesn't play in my country,I hope to see it live someday in London. However I did listen to the recordings,read the book and I know the story of the musical . Lea Salonga played the role of Eponine in the tenth anniversary concert and now she's currently playing Fantine in the 25th anniversary concert. And Levy,there's still a magical thing called Wikipedia to research the characters.

I admire Lea Salonga greatly! I think she really did an amazing job in Mulan, as for the singing voice. I can't picture it with someone else... She has a very mellow voice and hits those high notes very welll. Kudos to Lea. Same goes with Donny Osmond! God Bless the person who picked him! His voice never sounded so attractive in a song... HA! XD
