  • @ZmajSnoshaj The funny thing is, I'm not progressive, liberal, Democrat--or even female (you say "her"). I'm a conservative MALE Republican... Just to be clear, I had never heard of Nomi until a few days ago, I don't think much of his style and I personally disapprove of homosexuality on Biblical grounds. However, I do not believe we have any right to speak of someone as "AIDS trash". And I must admit that he had an awesome voice. I don't like his music, but this piece he did well.

  • @Lufiend

    Ahh.... A progressive liberal Democrat who thinks her understanding of music is the defacto opinion. May your throat suffer the worse case of strep in medical history.

  • @ZmajSnoshaj Klaus Nomi may have been flamboyant and gay and he may well have had a very 1980s sense of style. I do not identify with any of that, but if you cannot appreciate the power of Nomi's voice, you do not understand music. This piece also was not intended for a woman's voice anyway.

  • @amexred

    Nomi was AIDS-trash.. this woman here has real class.

  • Enjoyed the performance. wish you held the last note but that's only cuz I'm comparing to Nomi's performance. Yours was still very good.

  • Superb commanding voice in a mezzo! extremely well executed xD well done!

  • you're really great musicians. The tempo and the organ are lovely too

  • Wunderschöne Musik.

    Liebe Grüße aus Ostfriesland

  • What power art thou, who from below

    Hast made me rise unwillingly and slow

    From bed of everlasting snow?

    See'st thou not how stiff and wondrous old

    Far unfit to bear the bitter cold,

    I can scarcely move or draw my breath?

    Let me, let me freeze again to death.

  • Безумно здорово.
