Somewhere in 'Net Land' there was a video of a small american boy singing 'Nessun Dorma'. Yes - it sounded good - but he had obviously learned it parrot fashion and, when asked, had no idea of what the words meant. He has since appeared on several chat shoes in USA and is introduced as an 'opera singer'! He knows and sings one aria - that does not make him an opera singer and, if he continues to over use his young voice, he never will be.
