Floor Jansen - O Mio Babbino Caro (Puccini)

Update 11/30/12 : Floor says "It's a show about classical music. They invite 'pop singers' to sing a classical piece. And even though I studied classical singing, I am not an opera singer full time." (Source : floorjansen.com/blog/tv-clothe...)
Floor interpreted an aria from the great Giacomo Puccini in the dutch TV show "De Tiende van Tijl" the 31st of August. A great performance :D
From the Opera Gianni Schicchi (1918) : It is sung by Lauretta after tensions between Schicchi and his prospective in-laws have reached a breaking point that threatens to separate her from Rinuccio, the boy she loves.
"O mio babbino caro
Mi piace, è bello, è bello
Vo' andare in Porta Rossa
a comperar l'anello!
Sì, sì, ci voglio andare!
e se l'amassi indarno,
andro' sul Ponte Vecchio,
ma per buttarmi in Arno!
Mi struggo e mi tormento!
O Dio, vorrei morir!
Babbo, pietà, pietà!
Babbo, pietà, pietà!"
"Oh my dear papa
I love him, he is handsome, handsome
I want to go to Porta Rossa
to buy the ring!
Yes, yes, I want to go there!
And if my love were in vain,
I would go to the Ponte Vecchio
and throw myself in the Arno!
I am being consumed by the torment!
Oh God, I'd like to die!
Papa, have pity, have pity!
Papa, have pity, have pity!"
