But Opera Man, I go, 'Oh, crap! Why didn't I think of that?' Because I could sing fake opera pretty good.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
But I won't deprive myself of singing opera as long as my voice follows.
In opera, there is always too much singing.
Opera is full of trappings that make us go away from being human. You can't let them do that. You can't walk like you're in an opera! You have to make it real. You have to just be there.
I've never been to the opera; I've only seen opera on DVD.
I love opera so much. I would never go back to doing it, but I love to listen - I'm grateful for it.
No good opera plot can be sensible, for people do not sing when they are feeling sensible.
The very beautiful and very touching thing about opera singers is they are very willing to do whatever you want. Unlike actors, who constantly want to know why they're doing something, opera singers will sort of follow you into the fires of hell.
But nevertheless, it's music ultimately that matters in opera, and opera is a piece of music reaching out as a vision in sound reaching out to the world.
It's logical for us to sing, but not necessarily operatic pieces.
I don't mind what language an opera is sung in so long as it is a language I don't understand.
