I'm not offended at all. Otherwise I wouln't have simply asked you what you meant. I probably would have added something lol. I know that Summertime is from Porgy and Bess but I hate it when sung with an "operatic" voice. It might fit the composer's idea but I find that it REALLY doesn't fit the song. It's just a matter of taste.

What I meant was you would protest the idea of someone praising Luciano Pavarotti for singing Baby Got Back. This aria is from the OPERA Porgy and Bess; this is how the composer intended the performance to be. I'm not sure how the jazz version came about and I'm utmost unsure how the baby will sleep either with that jazz approach. Not trying to dispute your comment, just wanna to make sure you are aware of what you're talking about; please don't be offended. Cheers !

Muy buena voz para cantar Aida, lucia di lammermour, etc... pero esto es un espiritual negro y encima canción de cuna... el estilo es un desastre, los gorgoritos para los clásicos, sólo las mujeres de color tienen voz para cantar esta partitura, cantara muy bien esta mujer, pero este estilo se le queda enormemente grande.

I was about to suggest it... Renee Olstead has everything : the voice, the talent, the charisma, the beauty. Her version is unbelievable. All the more that she was only 15 when she recorded it. PS: There's no way the baby is going to fall asleep with Renee Fleming singing like this...
