Ok! For those who have heard Drummer Boy...this is the exact opposite of that. In fact...it's the anti-Drummer Boy, hehe. You'll notice that I like to hop around from genre to genre, and some of you might be all for it, while others might not be. And that's cool. I'm an aspiring classical soprano and I'm not really accustomed to mixing songs, so some of the same constructive critisisms may come to mind while listening to Temperance. And you'll probably have new ones, lol. I actually just figured out GarageBand on my computer a couple weeks ago and had some time on my hands, so I decided to play around on it with some of the standard loops while also coming up with my own and recording the vocals via isight mic (hehe, sorry bout that). I could use better equipment and more experience too, but suggestions are always appreciated in the meantime! I called it Temperance due to the lyrics, which could kind of portray our sometimes barely restrained emotions when it comes to someone we're secretly thinking about ;) For me, passion is most effectively portrayed in music through opera, and it is is a dream of mine to expose more people to this particular art, sometimes through unconventional means of doing so.

Lyrics
Bella innamorata tesor mio
(My beautiful enchanted jewel)
Le labbra tue, gli occhi toui severi...
(Your lips, your dangerous eyes)...
Fammi provar l'ebbrezza dell'amor
(Let me feel the intoxication of love)
(My beautiful enchanted jewel)
Le labbra tue, gli occhi toui severi...
(Your lips, your dangerous eyes)...
Fammi provar l'ebbrezza dell'amor

oh, sweet! Very nice mixing of heavy club-sounding music bed with operatic singing... you'll need to 'Emily Rohm" here, and "Mystified", and "Paxeden", and... (definitely in good company) I really liked the feel of this, and could even imagine a nice chorus section added to break it and make it much longer.
I recognized a couple of loops, including the well-worn fiddle, but you chopped it and used it sparingly enough that it was actually tasteful here. This means you have a very good ear for putting together music, and I look forward to more of this experimental "unorthodox" introduction to operatic singing, brava! Definitely my style... reminds me a bit of the first Enigma album in passionate genre-mixing.
ttfn,
Drakonis
