Cantante Del Favorito: Vitas

It has been quite a while since I last blogged, as I had been busy doing sketching, drawing, painting and doing graphic designing work, until yesterday morning at 9.30am did I stop. I shall not go into further details as to why I did that (the answer will be out within these 2 days latest, anyway), but for now, I shall post some other nitty gritty stuffs about myself, so that no one would think that I've abandoned my blog or anything.

In this post, I shall talk about my favourite singer, Vitas. He's a young singer-actor from Russia, and is most famous for his almost-unbelievably high falsetto. In his most famous song till date, "Opera #2", he sang in falsetto in the chorus, and when I first heard this song, I almost thought it was sung by a female soprano, until I saw him singing on stage.



Of course, he doesn't sing all these ultra high-pitched falsetto in all his songs, but then again, this was like almost a signature trademark of his singing style, and something seemed to be lacking when he doesn't do that even though he sounded just as good singing within "normal" vocal range.



On a sidenote, recently I've changed the ringtone of my company mobile phone to the chorus of "Opera #2", and some of my colleagues seemed a bit uneasy with it. I guess they find it a bit eerie sounding, but nevertheless I still like it!
