Il Trovatore Anvil Chorus Met Opera

So, when I started getting a disposable income, I thought I would Get Some Culture.  I went to the opera, because... well.  Culture.  And because it was Carmen, and I grew up with Sesame Street and the singing orange and of course I had to see the real thing.  What I didn’t know is that the local company had a translation of the lines running constantly above the stage.  

... And lemme tell you, the only difference between opera and soap operas is a) the language and b) the quality of the music.  Carmen is a wild ride.  

So what I’m saying is there is literally no conceivable reason I can’t have anvil songs in modern media.  Opera really isn’t that deep.  This song is literally about how they’re happy because the sun is out. (I know it’s hard to tell with the dark set but yeah)  Tell me y’all don’t want this.
