Heart Sounds...

i've been getting into some classical music lately, especially operas with the tenor voice. i have to laugh because my musical flavor is so random. i'm a gal that absolutely loves drums...but a pure voice is so moving too.

anyway, i stumbled across this tune when i was researching the "ten tenors". it's actually a song that was used in the movie "the gladiator"...insert note: LOVE it...and it moves me to tears every time i listen. it's just so passionate, beautiful...culminating in such sweet peace. between the rhythm and pure vocals...it's like what the musical of my heart would sound like...at least the movie version for sure!

so, here's the movie version and the 'ten tenor' version. stick with the tenor one...at around 2 minutes a pure tenor voice just takes over. it's really quite powerful. i have to just sit back and close my eyes...and enjoy.
