Best Songs I Heard on Non-Rock Radio Stations This Year
My Yuletide entry in this series comes from opera guy Luciano Pavarotti, heard on 91.5 Classical KUSC. Obviously, the man had incredible pipes. But I think what I like more about this, his magical rendition of "O Holy Night," is his heavy, heavy accent and the way he adds extra syllables, like "in a-sin and error a-pining." The way he pronounces "the soul felt its worth" is just crazy. But what a powerful performance. And, of course, what a song. Merry Christmas to all.

Thanks, Tom! I enjoyed that immensely.
I will always remember where we were when we heard this for the first time... pulling into the parking lot at the Home Depot. And you wouldn't get out of the car until it was over.
