This is not opera. Besame Mucho is a 20th century Mexican love song. That being said, Paul did have a great voice and he even sounds operatic at times in this clip. He would have done well I think, if he'd trained his voice classically.
Compare this voice to "Drive my car", to "For no one, to "Magycal Mystery Tour", and to "Oh Darling". You could say they were 5 different singers. It's amazing what Paul could do with his voice.
the way i see it no one says this is opera, they just said it sound like opera. everyone knows is besame mucho, but paul sings as if he was singing opera.i dont picture lennon singing this way and it goes to show that paul was and is the best.
To be classified as Opera, dialogue has to be sung. Since this is a SONG, and not dialogue, it's not technically Opera. It may be Opera sounding, but it's not Opera.
And why is Youtube saying I'm spelling "Dialogue" wrong?
"Besame Mucho" is an old chestnut. I'm sure there are actual recordings of this song that sound just like this. Very funny. (though I like the Beatles version from the anthology/Decca session, my fav version is Diana Krall's. I'm sure it's here someplace...)
yes, it's on Anthology 1. It was taken from the Decca Audition tape. Brian Epstein insisted they perform it for Decca. Decca didn't like it, Decca didn't sign them, and the rest is Beatles history.
Like that? Find "Let It Be" he's hairy and the situation with the fabs is hairy, as it's basically a documentation of "how to allow your band to fall apart"
It's good to see them having a good time so late. It was sad to see them all tensed up near the end but, Macca as always could get them laughing and back to their old selves.
@DieWalrossen is not an opera son! its a famous song called BESAME MUCHO from a mexican woman called Consuelo Velazquez.
