She’s aimed for the Eponine that is happy to live her fantasies but also reluctantly and sadly acknowledges the fact that her fantasies are just that: fantasies. In a sense, it’s very soft and more internal than the others who are going for more of a desperate, wailing-in-despair tone, which, if you’re talking about Eponine’s whole deal in this song, Lea’s character analysis fits more than the others.

Lea Solanga is my absolute favorite! There is no one who can touch her clarity and pure ness of voice. The effortless seams of her transitions make her a true character. She never oversells a single note, and not knowing when to hold back is the other singers’ obvious weakness, especially Lea Michele. She is the closest second in that purity of sound, but she cancels it out every time she belts! Lea Solanga’s resonance is so naturally controlled it sounds as if she never needed training at all, though we know she worked hard for her gift, but just the thought that she could wake up any day and do this is why she is the best, in my honest and dedicated opinion! From this list- #1 Lea Solanga #2 Samantha Barks #3 Lea Michele Since you didn’t specify “who sang it best” in English, I would like to say that Kaho Shimada’s Japanese performance of “On My Own” is absolutely out of this world. Her voice has that oh-so-rare natural purity, like Solanga’s, but still unique to her, and her character portrayal of Eponine is flawless. Really worth listening to her version!!!

Lea Salonga 1995 is my fave. She not only sounds amazing but you get caught up with her acting of the song. (I love the climax and the moments right after that going into, "I love him.") I don't know exactly when the later Lea Salonga version is from but it's at least 20 years later. She still sounds amazing. And this may also color my opinion, but I'm not a huge fan of the melody change on "pretending" - I much prefer the original version.

They all can sing. So, I closed my eyes and without looking at the singer meaning simply by listening to them, I would say 1. Lea S. (younger version) - I felt the pain, emotion and her loneliness. I like her younger version than her latest version though. 2. Samantha B. (Movie version) - I definitely felt her emotion and sadness. I felt more like teen love. So close to younger version of Lea S. There was more vulnerability on her voice which is really good for me. 3. Lea M. - I felt her emotions but the pain was kinda missing for me. It sounded like she's kinda calling to someone very far from her but it's good version though.
