Youve very likely heard this song some time, even if (like me) youve never been to the opera. Join me as I study the lyrics in a live session recorded today!
More info:
Tomorrow, Lauren and I are going to the opera for the first time. Since we will be seeing Carmen, I wanted to get ready by learning the lyrics of the famous song La Habanera, so I figured Id share the experience talking through the lyrics in French and its translation with you live!
Since I had technical difficulties at the start of the session, and some parts of the video that werent so interesting, I edited this down a little to be easier to watch in the long term.
I hope you enjoy watching me genuinely see the lyrics for the first time!! To mix it up a bit, my video editor made cute animations of some random parts of the lyrics for me to play on screen.
The video you see that I was playing to sing from is this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rjOrOt6wFw
