100 words | Schubert’s miracle


I’ve been listening to ave maria all morning. This is one of those songs which I would only feel comfortable singing in the shower. There’s a particular section of the piece that, well, lets just say unless I turn the water all the way to hot or someone sticks me with a fork, I’m not hitting that note without a pole vault. When sung right (when someone else sings it), it’s actually pretty powerful. There’s a few different versions of the song, but the most common is the one in the video above. Who knew German could sound so good?
