Meh. I agree her control and intensity are flawless--which is why I can't get into it. The operatic style doesn't sound like a human voice to me at all. I can appreciate the skill, but it gives me no emotional reaction. She might as well be Sharon Apple.

Naw man, don't say that.
Look, it's like when you were arguing with the singer in your studio about how his song needed that voice crack, and he definitely shouldn't try to re-record it to be flawless. The flaws make it interesting. |

Different genre, different thing.
When I hear Yo-Yo Ma play cello, I don't need him to f up in order to make it interesting - the flawless execution, flawless in spite of him being swept up in the passion and intensity of it, that makes it interesting. Gheorgiu is the same way, for me.

Yes.
That scene was the beginning of opera for me, the first time I actually got it. Also, it's good to be reminded that Tom Hanks used to actually act.

I used to be very picky about my music but I will now be open to just about everything. I prefer psychedelic indie rock and alternative 90's music but I don't mind jazz, classical, rap (of all kinds), pop, punk, metal (the screaming stuff), and folk. I still can't get into country but I did make a few honest attempts.
Even though I don't think most mainstream music involves much musical talent, they are good with being catchy and something you can move too, which I've re-learned to appreciate.
