That may be a blessing ;-)

This comment reminds me of this song by Siegfried Wagner (not a great
performance, but the only video I can find):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V49_GhWzp3w
The title translates to "The Tale of the Big, Fat Pancake" :-) It's one
of the lieder that I really don't mind not being able to understand
(although reading through the lyrics was admittedly rather fun, so maybe
that's my loss).
It also reminds me a bit of Bach's coffee cantata.

Damn. Now I'm going to have to remember where I heard this.
Oh wait... Wasn't this one of the character's themes in Moulin Rouge? It
harmonizes really well with Roxanne (by Police) BION.

I think most music written for an organ needs to be heard performed on an
organ. I don't think a recording can do it justice, any more than a movie of
fireworks is exciting.

I just love it when those bass pipes seem to make the whole place tremble.
I think a deaf person would be able to feel those vibrations :)
