Since it's a Coldplay song, it's a piano version of alternative rock.

Coldplay is okay sometimes, but Pandora plays it way too much for my tastes. I don't exactly know which of my artists it considers Coldplayesque (Sting??? He's the closest I can think of ...) but either way, way too much playing for me.<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.

My favorite female mad scene has always been Lady Macbeth's sleepwalking scene in Verdi's opera. Particularly with Shirley Verrett singing it.
Male mad scene goes to Boris Godunov's Clock Scene, no contest.

You'd be surprised at how often one hears something like that not in jest...
Although, I remember in college I had someone state that she refused to listen to Wagner because he wrote his music to be played in the Nazi concentration camps. I didn't know where to start with that one, and settled on the fact that Wagner died before Hitler was born.Tutto nel mondo è burlaComment

From Holst's The Planets, I like Mars slightly better than Jupiter.

I read a short story recently (by an opera fan, of course) about time travel, where a time traveler went back to Wagner and showed him what his music would lead to, and asked him to please not make music. He was sympathetic but decided that he would make the music anyway, because he had a responsibility to the music, and not for the consequences.Originally posted by Boris Godunov

Interesting dilemma, though, isn't it?<Reverend> IRC is just multiplayer notepad.

What did his music "lead" to?
Surely this story didn't suggest that Wagner's music caused the Holocaust?Tutto nel mondo è burlaComment
