A great man, he will be missed.

It's a bit like Christmas when you keep hearing Slade every five seconds and in the end you just want to kick a child's head. I wouldn't be surprised if the papers have little musical recordings in the obituary section that activate when you open the paper, like greetings cards. I'm more focused on Gazza at the moment than Pava. Surely there was more to this man's life than singing Turandot for an international sporting event seventeen years ago?

Re: RIP Luciano Pavarotti
 
So I started browsing my forums today when I arrived at work, same routine every day. Every single forum I read seems to have a topic dedicated to Pavarotti. I'm wondering why? Is it some kind of urge of threadstarters to make popular threads? Is it some kind of "sure thing" that a thread about a dead artist will be popular? On how many forums did you post this thread Allfather?

Everybody loves a dead fatty.

Hmm I hadn't looked at it that way, I suppose that's true.

Re: RIP Luciano Pavarotti
 
Of course it's true. Just look at Göring.

Re: RIP Luciano Pavarotti
 
Göring was a fatty?

Marilyn Manson 6 Sep 2007 14:32

Re: RIP Luciano Pavarotti
 
Hell yeah. One of the greatest fatties of all time I might add.

Only until they were kicked out, of course, because then we all claimed to have been in the resistance.

Yes. A couple of weeks ago Jos Brink, a Dutchie who had been relatively important for the development (lack thereof, in my personal yet humble opinion) of Dutch making died from cancer. It took over a week for the "in memoriam"s and "dedicated to Jos Brink"s to pass. And the only reason that happened was because another guy, an actor, died. Go figure.

I don't think Mark and me have been simultaneously active on this board since about 2003. It's something to do with cosmological gravitational forces, or so I'd hazard.

Has it perhaps occurred to you that this might be the case because you browse too many forums? This is the first thread I see about this on the interweb.

Actually, the more forums he reads, the more credible his claim becomes. Think about it.

I liked it when he sang in those Cornetto adverts :)

And his great interpretations of Nessun dorma. Luciano knew PA.
