I think I'm waaaay too into TA now...I can recognise his voice anywhere now. Got a recording of Le nozze di Figaro recently but had no idea who were the singers in it. Just played a random track where Figaro says two very brief lines to Susanna about winning the case against the Count and the second Figaro came on...*click*...instant recoginition. OTZ

But I believe you knew that already, lol.

Of Austen and baritones...sort of.

OMG...the world really does work in mysterious and uncanny ways that really gets to you without you expecting it.

Here I am, just minding my own business watching stuff on Youtube and looking at any new TA vids being uploaded. There's one where he sings 'Silent Worship'...first thought: 'God, what an utterly bland title of a song which probably isn't very interesting.' I pass over it (despite it being sung by TA in the early 80s) then come back to it since I just want to have a listen to what it is.

And yes, I get egg splattered all over my face once again...since he sings a song I used to love enormously when I watched the 1996 version of 'Emma'.

[livejournal.com profile] enserric , if you remember that song you liked from the film..you'll know exactly what song I'm talking about: the one that Emma (Gwyneth Paltrow) sings at the piano at the party...

My favourite baritone plus Austen-related songs...*sigh*

And my fangirling JUST needed something to make it even more worse, eh?
