More from Carmen..... O Mio Babbino Caro from Puccini

After listening to Taylor Swift (who is at least a very gracious lady) and the sick and demented behaviour of  Lady Gaga at the CMA's I needed this .... the best of Opera offers the most beautiful sounds imaginable expressing the complete spectrum of the human spirit...

Notice the older guy in the crowd who wiping back the tears.... that is her father.... so cool and so beautiful.
