Opera In One Ear.

With the warm weather coming on, the days of the brakelight/CD-pause phenomenon are pretty much at a close. So it is that my CD changer, spiteful rocking bastard that he is, has developed a new way to pee on the Blitzeroo. And I know you're familiar with this experience from at least one of your old cars...

We've got an intermittent right speaker, crackling in and out, sometimes playing full volume and sometimes none at all. This has happened before (during a run of that Furious Chick Belinda Carlisle in the Speeding Blitz) and it fixed itself. I'm hoping it does so again.

In the meantime, there's something so crazy-wonderful about a loud, strong opera note (I'm on Andrea Bocelli by the way) jamming a misbehaving speaker back in line. Imagine it - a note so forceful that it shifts from mono to stereo as you're listening to it. If we ever get back to Cherry Blossom, we need to use that technique in a song. Raph'd be all over it...
