Love that song. Bought it for my mother--with the woman who was the original Broadway star of Phantom and the blind male opera singer. Both names escape me at the moment. Got one--Bocelli.

Sara Brighton, I believe, is the lady's name. The two made the song popular.

Now that you mention it, vmarie, I think it's Brightman...but you have a better memory than I do!

You may be right, pixipixil. I know the performance is on YouTube, but I didn't bother looking it up.

Have a great day!

You too. Might listen to the youtube of them. I don't have the cd. My brother dumped it when he cleaned my mom's house out.

Just listenend and went on to hear Phantome with Banderras (who knew he could sing? ) and Brightman. She hits an e natural above high c at the end. There was a time when I could do that. No more. {:-(

Sounds as if you were and partially still are quite versed in vocal music. I enjoy singing, but my ear isn't developed enough to distinguished between a C and an E. I tend to be contralto myself, so high G (the space just above the treble staff) is about as high as I get. Once, though, I had to sing a B-flat, just below the C and somehow I managed! I guess it's all a matter of practice. I believe you could rejuvenate those vocal chords to once again sing that high E. Blessings!

I didn't find Phantome with Banderas, but I did listen to Barbra Streisand with Antonio Banderas - Take Me to the World, which is kind of a documentary with commentary by the singers.

I went to college for a music degree nd majored in voice. I was already mid 40's and the vocal coach was amazed at how high my voice reached. I practice almost daily but like all singers my range has dropped and contracted.
The phantom one is in Spanish titles so you have to sort of guess what phantom would be in Spanish. They sing it in English tho.

Our neighbor's cats do that. Often they'll sleep on our front stoop. (Fenced yard doesn't stop them.) More often they'll hide in the bushes to ambush the birds at our feeder.
It is developing into a wildlife sanctuary. We have a resident skunk and have had a marmot under the cement steps up to our front door and more recently a doe and her Bambi. They ate up 2 huge arborvitae in back.
Once, when living in the Catskill mountains, we awoke to a small group (not enough to be a herd) of the neighbor's cows in our yard heading towards our vegetable garden.
That was definitely emergency phone call time.
I love animals but not the bugs they bring with them--especially deer flies and fleas--nor the damage they do to plantings thar cost much sweat and loving care not to mention money.

Sounds like a sweet dog who loves you very much. After she has an understanding about the potted plants, that is.

Aussie, I'm sure your reference to your "pot plants" means POTTED plants?

She has investigated your pot plants? I'm guessing that you mean potted plants or is there something about you that no one knows about?

Hahahahaha! Yep, trynfindit, I noticed that, too! Here in Colorado, that has a whooooooole new meaning!

They are just called pot plants here I didn't even consider that there could be another meaning to that. Hugs.

Lol yeah I went out for breakfast with friends a few weeks ago. I looked at the menu online. It was suppose to say potato salad and it says pot salad. Have a funny story about duck apple pie....lol

I don't know, aussie - "pot" plants could be an additional source of income for you!

At least I have learned through this site not to ask for pot plants if I holiday in north America lol. You're a strange lot and isn't this site educational wheeeeeeeee. Hugs.

You guys are out there, Never even thought of that.
Ha-ha.

I new what aussie meant, but it was fun to gently tease her.

I agree! In Colorado we are teased constantly about legalizing marijuana. Just because it's legal does NOT mean we all use it! I'm on enough prescription drugs, why on earth would I want to add another??? :)

Knew.

I am arranging to send you all pot plants for Christmas :) Hugs especially to Aknan. How did the surgery go?

Sent you an email on that - it was a successful test and he'll have the second test next week. If that gives the same results, he'll go for the permanent fix!

OK you two, now you've got my curiosity up. aknan, what's up?

Tryinfindit, my Dearly Beloved has suffered from excruciating headaches since 1973. The procedures referred to involve deadening the nerves in his cervical vertebrae. This is a test procedure and it resulted in an 80% reduction in pain and has lasted over 24 hours now, when it was supposed to be 8 - 12 hours. As per FDA protocol, he'll have another test done and if it is as successful as the first, the doctor will burn out those nerves, which should give him a year or more of relief.

Aknan, thank you for letting me know. If I'd had any sense I would've remembered that you had mentioned that in another post and we were all praying for your hubby and for you. I need to get out my butterfly net and catch my brain the next time it flies through.

Aknan - That sounds like radio frequency ablation. I hope that it works.
