Maria Callas: December 2, 1923 – September 16, 1977

This from a guy who never thought of himself as an "Opera buff": Every time I hear her version of Catalani's "La Wally - Ebben Ne Andro Lontana," and I did but a moment ago, I weep. Literally.

Of course Roy Orbison's "Crying" and The Hollies' "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" has that affect on me as well.

Getting a little sentimental, or, uhm, soft in the head, I reckon.
