ok, they have great voices, but I wouldn't start a thread for them :whistle:

You have much to learn, Padawan. That's the kind of shit you wanna play when you try to land fancy pussies.

*sigh* I LOVE listening to both or either...Brightman in CATS is great...and really, could Bocelli get anything wrong with his voice??!!

I also liked him with Celine Dion on The Prayer...beautiful!

My favorite bands are mostly punk and punk-rock bands and yet that is still one of my favorite songs! Gives me chills everytime I hear it.

Hubby and I were just in Vegas and they were playing that song during the fountain show at Bellagio. I love it. Although because the Rodeo was in town they also did the show playing "Proud to be an American." :tt: I'm sorry and I do not care how proud you are but don't play some redneck song in front of an Italian themed casino. :tt: Being at the fountain reminds me of when my husband visited Bellagio in 05 (the real Bellagio in Italy) so playing country music really ruins the illussion. :tt: :leaving:

Since I am already going off on a tangent I might as well include a picture...

LOVE Sarah Brightman... I have a couple CDs of hers, one of which has this song (sans Bocelli, though).

Here's one more of my favorite Andrea Bocelli's song. IMHO this is the BEST rendition of "Besame Mucho" yet. If I were a chick and listen to this song being played to me, I'd bone that dude that played this song.

I must say, if I had your toys and house.. I'd be peeling vaginas off of my face every time I walked down the street. :ladysman:

And yes, I would walk. It's hard to get hit in the face with vaginas if there's a windshield in front of you.

It doesn't work that way, dude. If I were a filthy rich millionaire, maybe. An M6 won't get you laid in LA.

Anyway man, I'm just busting your chops. I was actually stealing a line from a chuck norris quote in the origal post I made.

"Chuck Norries does not go hunting. Hunting implies a chance. Chuck Norris goes killing."

That actually sort of happened in a bar once to me, it just came up in conversation today. The chick wasn't hot and I didn't bang her but she did throw panties at me, and it does count.

OK, my first try the videos wouldn't imbed.

But, Luciano Pavarotti, undisputed King of the High C's, and yes, I know he's passed away, but, still... no one touches him. Can't imagine a voice more incredible than his, ever.

"Nessun Dorma"

and my fav female singer who sings classical and contemporary is Lara Fabian

"Te Voglio Bene Assai" from Caruso

Lara Fabian again, "Adagio" watch it until the end, amazing!
