The quartet from Verdi's "Rigoletto."
...
I'm an opera fan.
Probably the only one on this website, judging by other people's selections of music (great stuff really, just not my forte), but what the hey, I'm used to being a minority. Now 'scuse me, I have to go cry at Pavarotti's "O Sole Mio" (which isn't opera, actually, but is mind-blowingly beautiful).

I actually like opera, it's just that I don't know enough about it to understand it. I have a couple of vinyl records, but none on my computer.

I actually like opera, it's just that I don't know enough about it to understand it. I have a couple of vinyl records, but none on my computer.
That's okay, I don't understand a lot of it myself, but I got this great book: Opera for Beginners, by Ron David, where he explains that it's okay to not know what's going on.
It also helps if you know a romance language. I speak Spanish, so I can often get a general idea of what they're singing in Italian opera.Mind if I ask what you have recordings of? I don't own anything on vinyl.
Here's what I'm listening to now: "A Furtive Tear" ("Una furtiva lagrima") he's singing about going into the army, but knowing he can die happy because his unattainable love shed a tear for him. Pavarotti.

So I'm late to the Amanda Palmer party. I've always known she was pretty cool but I didn't want to jump on the hype wagon. And then I heard her solo album, 'Who Killed Amanda Palmer?" which also has a companion photo book with bits WRITTEN BY NEIL GAIMAN.
And I'm down with anything he's down with.
I had a similar experience.
One of my friends (she's since moved to Washington, but we still keep in sporadic contact) is a HUGE Dresden Dolls fan; even going to the lengths of shaving/tattooing her eyebrows. So, I was aware of Amanda Palmer, and was mildly interested in her work, but really didn't have any sort of exposure to the music.
A few weeks back, someone told me that Amanda had a new album coming out, so I listened to some of of the Dresden Dolls songs that Marie (my friend) had given me. And I listened to them again. And again. I then logged onto amandapalmer.net, and proceeded to find the holy grail.
Next paycheck = food + new pencils + "Who Killed Amanda Palmer?"

Also I've started listening to Kings of Leon and want one of their CDs. Anyone have recomendations?
Their latest album, Only by The Night, is really good.
I’m not that familiar with their earlier work, but the track “On Call” from the Because of the Times album is pretty cool. I don’t really know the rest of the album that well.

Come all you young rebels and list' while I sing,
For the love of one's country is a terrible thing,
It banishes fear with the speed of a flame,
And it makes us all part of the patriot game.
My name is O'Hanlan and I'm just gone sixteen.
My home is in Monaghan, where I was weaned,
I've learned all my life cruel, with England to blame,
And so I'm a part of the patriot game.
It's barely two years since I wandered away
With the local battalion of the bold IRA.
I'd read of our heroes and wanted the same-
To play out my part in the patriot game.
This island of ours has for long been half free,
Six counties are under John Bull's tyranny,
So I gave up my Bible to drill and to train,
To play my own part in the patriot game.
And now as I lie here, my body all holes,
I think of those traitors who bargained and sold,
I wish that my rifle had given the same
To those Quislings who sold out the patriot game.
