I dunno if I'd call it the best band ever, but I picked up "The Beginning Stages" this week at Second Spin and ripped "Light & Day" onto the computer tonight. I really like that song, even though it's not a traditional sound.

Nessum Dorma will always remind me of the 1990 world cup.

It was the song of the finals. Ireland first world cup, got through the stage of 16 in a 5-4 PK win over Romania, then in the quarter finals, that little bastard toto scilacci beat Packie Bonnar with a cheap open net rebound to put Ireland out 1-0.

Our entire town just shut down, people fell out of the bars and into the streets, it was unbelievable, and this was when we lost!!!

But, first world cup, good showing.

That song will always trigger fantastic memories (particularly the Pavarotti version)

He's going to be on Today on NBC this morning. What a whirlwind ride I imagine it has been for this guy the past few weeks...

This clip was shown on Fox News last week. Being a classical music fan myself, I was astonished at his talent. Luckily 'hot looks' is not a big deal in opera, so he should have no problem being a professional singer. He seems like a nice guy, too.

this guy was amazing to watch, seeing as he had never sang infront of anyone before in his life and this was a nationwide comp 2 find the best untapped talent in the UK.

If you can get a video of the shows u would be very surprised with some of the acts.

one act was a 6 year old girl who had a pitch perfect voice, she was amazing, simon cowell thought she was gr8 to.

Absolutely amazing, this guy.

OMG I love Andrea Bocelli!

And that is a VERY hard song to sing, not only is it opera, and you need a booming voice for that, but it is also in Italian. There are so many highs and lows of that song, and he did amazing!!

Congradgulations to him on his apparent million pound contract.

And I am looking forward to his CD coming out, and I will definitely buy it!
