They played a whole tribute to him on my radio station last night. Three hours of Pavarotti.
Oh, man, if you could hear that voice. He never lost breath or flubbed out, he'd hit C's and <i>held</i> them forever. The power. The clarity.
He died of pancreatic cancer. Dear Gods. That's a death sentence. 20% survival rate, inoperable, no cure, not even chemo. All they can do is ply you with painkillers and hope you're that one in five who survives for longer than a year.
I'm going to pick up a Pavarotti CD today. That voice <i><b>cannot</i></b> die.
