Default Re: Anyone like the opera?
As much as I love classical music, and as much as I can fully appreciate the remarkable artistry of an operatic singer, I have never been able to get into opera itself. Perhaps it is my own crassness and ignorance, but I feel I'm missing the point of it . . . largely due to my lack of the linguistic knowledge to understand what's happening when it's sung in Italian, German, French, or even English.

Hey, I'm still trying to figure out the words to "Louie Louie".
