Have any of you ever found a song that was so beautiful that you literally looped it from morning to night on your PC, MP3 Player, CD Player or other media device?
I have, and I'm literally stuck listening to it right now and I've been listening to it since 8 AM today on everything I own...in my Car, on my cheapo MP3 player and on my PC.
The song in question? an incredibly sad opera-like song sung by Pavarotti (Rest in Peace) & Lucio Dalla and it's called Caruso.
It is in Italian so you will have to read these English subtitles while listening to it.
Please tell me if you guys have ever had something like this happen to you (NOT THE SITUATION IN THE SONG, That'd be just too sad!)

Here, where the sea shines
and the wind howls,
on the old terrace
beside the gulf of Sorrento,
a man embraces a girl
after the tears,
then clears his throat
and continues the song:
I love you very much,
very, very much, you know;
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins, you know…
He saw the lights out on the sea,
thought of the nights there in America,
but they were only the fishermen’s lamps
and the white wash astern.
He felt the pain in the music
and stood up from the piano,
but when he saw the moon
emerging from a cloud,
death also seemed sweeter to him.
He looked the girl in the eyes,
those eyes as green as the sea.
Then suddenly a tear fell
and he believed he was drowning.
I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the vein you know…
The power of opera,
where every drama is a hoax;
with a little make-up and with
mime
you can become someone else.
But two eyes that look at you,
so close and real,
make you forget the words,
confuse your thoughts,
so everything becomes small,
also the nights there in America.
You turn and see your life
through the white wash astern.
But, yes, it is life that ends
and he did not think much about it
on the contrary, he already felt happy
and continued his song:
I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins, you know…
I love you very much,
very, very much, you know,
it is a chain by now
that heats the blood inside the veins, you know…
