A bit of fun


Many years ago when I was in crowd control (which some people call high school music teaching) one of my students made a comment about the operatic aria I was playing his class.

Peter pointed out that while adults grizzle about not being able to understand the words sung in rock songs, he couldn't understand a word of the song, though it was being sung in English.

I'm pleased this amusing Facebook song has the text included. Peter had a point! (I've been told that German is the only language which you can understand when it is sung by an opera singer ... provided that you understand German.)

Congratulations to Brisbane's Gordon Hamilton and The Australian Voices for a beautifully produced video of their entertaining song.
