Opera for Dummies: “Habanera”

Everyone knows the beautiful melody of “L’amour est un oiseau rebelle” from Bizet’s Carmen, but few know what she’s actually singing about. Well, now you know! 😂

#classicalmusic #opera #comedy #piano

These are new lyrics I wrote inspired by the plot. Hope it gives you a good laugh!

if this guy translated a lot of classic operas, he might just have a solid musical comedy career in his future. excellent work!!!

[zabchan]

the chorus boys: he's gay!
carmen: Or European!!

Fantasic! this is an absolute gem, and I am going to spend the next 15min giggling to myself watching this over and over again.

shake, shake, shake, shake killed me. Loved this.

thank you for translating these operas that were originally in fench or italian! now i understand them and i'm crying from laughter 😂😂

I freaking love these opera summaries. Now every time I hear these songs from these operas my brain immediately goes to what the actual meaning behind them is... And in some cases it makes the songs very out of place where they're being played.

I mean they had goofy sing a love song set to the tune of the habanera in the Mickey Three musketeers movie... If that's not hella out of place I don't know what is.

The combination of funny and accurate translation alongside the IMPECCABLE singing is just phenomenal, so glad the unfathomable algorithm put this in front of my eyeballs ❤❤❤

Just found your channel- love it. You have joined the likes of Tom Lehrer, Tim Minchin and Randy Rainbow as artists I admire for their talent, wit, commentary and sheer entertainment value (I'm also an opera fan, so the Opera for Dummies series hits the spot 😊). I look forward to hearing much, much more from you 😊

Never thought that opera have lyrics comparable to fever dreams

[namelesswreck]

Is not gay, he's just from Spain. that's my new favorite quote 🤣💀

[maikenvictoriakarlsen]

You have ruined me because every time I listen to Habanera now I instinctively start singing your version in my head🤣🫣🤣🫣🤣 I really am loving these types of videos though🤣🫣😍

Not only are you able to play the piano and sing in every range, you can also write songs that had me laugh out loud!! Hats off to you, can wait to here more xxx

[LysBlanche]

You're so talented! Thank you so much for a good laugh! Can't stop singing it now 😅

[meganelise]

I’ve known most of these songs from pop culture since I was a kid, but never knew what they were actually about! I’m loving these videos 😂

[archidium]

The talent behind that "ji-i-igle my bum" is already more than I could ever, this man is amazing

[courtneydurham]

Ok, but the smug smile after you stick the landing on that lisp is just the best. Ole!

[Brainwashed]

This has got to be my tenth time watching this and it still makes me laugh!
