cathartic

Do you know what is really great?



Listening to Puccini's "Nessun Dorma" really, really loud. Seriously loud.

That is really great.


{There are several versions that would work. I actually really like Sarah Brightman's rendition from her cd Classics. Sarah is good, and the chorus is fantastic.}

The music gets right inside you and stirs you around. Rather like looking at the Aurora Borealis.

If you are tired or disappointed about something or if somebody hurt your feelings and you need to have a good cry, for whatever reason, I highly recommend it. At a certain point in the music everything just spills over. It can't be helped.


I am listening to Nessun Dorma right now.
