    Default Ave Maria - Compare And Contrast

    This thread is only for high-brow people like me (and maybe you) - working class vermin like Horan and his unwashed ilk should fuck off right back to whatever Internet dross they were dribbling at a moment ago.

    Here are two versions of Schubert's "Ave Maria". The first is sung by Mirusia Louwerse. The second is sung by our own Dolores O' Riordan of Cranberries fame. Both of them have full orchestral backing.

    I just love "Ave Maria" and always enjoy listening to different people singing it.
    I like Dolores O' Riordan but in this case , i prefer the first interpretation, she sings like an angel.
    Ave Maria in beautiful either in male or female voice.

    Have a listen to this version from Fantasia, it has a long intro, so if you wish you can skip to the 4th minute where the lovely lady sings. Walt Disneys' Fantasia has some beautiful classical music from some of the greatest composers.

    Thanks for the replies, but I put up Dolores (or should that be Dolorous? Ho! Ho!) O' Riordan's "attempt" because it made me want to go outside and repeatedly and violently close the car door against my head until I died. What makes her think she can sing? Who gave her a record contract? Whoever the fuck let this screeching yowling harridan anywhere near a microphone should be tracked down and publically beaten like a rug as an example.

    Do you think Louis Walsh could have had anything to do with it Mousey? When it comes to matters of bad taste (musically speaking), Louis is never far away.

    Doloras should stick to what she can sing, what suits her and her style. And this isn't it..........

    I always liked this version..........
