Schwarzenberg. September 2, 2007

You can feel the joy in her voice.
Wow wow wow, she's so so so...
Let face it I'm in love with her men... lol

Lo spazzacamin! Son d'aspetto brutto e nero,
Tingo ognun che mi vien presso;
Sono d'abiti mal messo,
Sempre scalzo intorno io vo.

Ah! di me chi sia più lieto
Sulla terra dir non so.
Spazzacamin! Signori, signore, lo spazzacamin
Vi salva dal fuoco per pochi quattrin.
Ah! Signori, signore, lo spazzacamin!

Io mi levo innanzi al sole
E di tutta la cittade
Col mio grido empio le strade
E nemico alcun non ho.

Ah, di me chi sia più lieto
Sulla terra dir non so.
Spazzacamin! Signori, signore, lo spazzacamin
Vi salva dal fuoco per pochi quattrin.
Ah! Signori, signore, lo spazzacamin!

Talor m'alzo sovra i tetti,
Talor vado per le sale;
Col mio nome i fanciuletti
Timorosi e quieti io fo.

Ah, di me chi sia più lieto
Sulla terra dir non so.
Spazzacamin! Signori, signore, lo spazzacamin
Vi salva dal fuoco per pochi quattrin.
Ah! Signori, signore, lo spazzacamin!

@shiksagoddess25 Her voice is not for everyone.....however.....IT IS CERTAINLY FOR ME

[letsxxtango]

I love how expressive she is in her singing! What a lovely interpretation.

What's this piece about?

love Diana

@littlelucifer69 It's all good. I completely agree with you. Her Zerbinetta's aria from Ariadne auf Naxos is by far my favorite from her.

[littlelucifer69]

@bigdigger87 Actually it's quite the opposite. I ADORE HER!!! I was more so mocking how little this type of vocal prowess is appreciated by our youth. My bad for being vague.

[bigdigger87]

@littlelucifer69 Ouch! I am assuming you do not like her voice either. Very funny...NOT!!! Anywho, she would not be so in demand if her voice was not special.

@bigdigger87 Everyone being people with no appreciation for classical music, right?
