I suspect that most opera is not great either, but it is not something I have listened to a great deal of.
It gets away with a lot by being in Italian or German though.
Have you ever heard English operas?
Oh my god the libretti are dreadful.

Opera is a heap of 'emperor's new clothes' shit.
Fucking Italian peasant entertainment with 'plots' as shit as Shakespeare's comedies and that fucking dismal bellowing.

It's shit. Wagner excepted.

It is a proper opera, just a modern proper opera.
I want to keep saying the phrase 'proper opera' now.

Some say that only the Italians did opera properly.
So consider 'proper wop opera'
