I love the deep reverberating voice. However Zarah Leander and her fellows are really cheesy in movies. :( Birgit Nilsson Her photo makes me think of Boudicar... ID: 1910683 ·

Last modified: 4 Jan 2018, 23:26:18 UTC Perhaps my post needs some explanation. Your pic of Marlene Dietricht is linked to a totally different singer. It's Lale Andersen who sings "Lili Marleen" from 1939. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh4qe0Hp6RU But it was also sung by Marlene Dietricht, Vera Lynn and many others. As for Birgit Nilsson:) Yes. Her character as BrÃ¼nnhilde in the Valkyrian by Richard Wagner was her favorite role. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birgit_Nilsson Birgit Nilsson sings Brunnhilde's Immolation Scene (end) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRj9f3PCe0M BTW.

Our tv's were console cabinets, but didn't have doors like that or a hi-fi set below them. The stereo consoles were long cabinets with a wooden lid and inside was a record turntable(usually the kind you could stack records on for multiple playing), and a tape deck and radio. Here's one of our tv consoles from the 1980's. It now lives in the basement. The mind is a weird and mysterious place ID: 1910884 ·
