One Day More是在《悲慘世界》音樂劇中,劇情來到法國大革命起義前夕,所有的角色面對明天的巨變,各自懷有的心事、心情與期望。很喜歡這樣從獨唱、雙重唱、多重唱到大合唱的氛圍。儘管每個角色都有各自的處境與社會地位,但明天的革命戰役卻是所有人都要一起面對的;而革命過後,各自的人生又會變得如何呢?非常喜歡這首歌的詮釋。
假如2012年的12月21日真是世界末日,那麼前一天的我們,會不會也是這樣各懷心事的唱著這首One Day More呢?

One day more!
Another day, another destiny.
This never-ending road to Calvary;
These men who seem to know my crime
Will surely come a second time.
One day more!

I did not live until today.
How can I live when we are parted?

Shall I join my brothers there?

Do I stay; and do I dare?

Will you take your place with me?

M. & MME. THENARDIER
Watch 'em run amuck,
Catch 'em as they fall,
Never know your luck
When there's a free for all,
Here a little `dip'
There a little `touch'
Most of them are goners
So they won't miss much!
Students (2 Groups)
