Have become slightly obsessed with this performance. So, so good.
Amazing baritone and practically opera royalty, Huw Montague Rendall (who'll be playing the Count in my pal Mariame's new 'Marriage of Figaro' at G'bourne this summer), here singing a bit of The Magic Flute with his actual fiancée, Elisabeth Boudreault. A vocal-power couple

Too funny

This is not a good answer to this prompt but some chain of memories led me from it to one of the greatest videos on YouTube—Bowie and Jagger’s Dancin in the Streets is a C-tier 80s song and F-tier video, but this edit horseshoes it all the way around to sublime. youtu.be/BHkhIjG0DKc?...

Just woke up from a dream. Floating down a flooded Dutch street in a rubbish skip with Ruud Van Nistelrooy, trying to avoid going over a waterfall.
