Yes. I've dabbled in singing, percussions, keyboards and guitar playing. Nothing 'serious', though. When I was 16 or so, I tried practising to sing 'Space Truckin'. It still makes me laugh when I think of this. - Can you imagine crossing more than 2 octaves with your voice like that singer?! Let me tell you, I only 'barely managed' if at all, then. (Watch out for the later! "Yeah yeah yeah - come on" part):
As for that film snippet above (Man of La Mancha 1972), I think Peter O'Toole might have been dubbed by an opera singer. Not sure...
I think I was impressed by your appreciation for so much music! But it takes someone to find their limits to really appreciate such things and to recognize just how much further we all have to go. It’s true that maybe that’s all God may expect for our small little efforts, really like that clip with Jim Nabors.
