MP3: Moto Boy - Ave Maria
This song has been the bane of my existence for nearly as long as I can remember, but I most distinctly remember my middle school teacher music teacher Kirk Wetterholm (who looked/looks? quite a bit like Gov. Blagojevich, come to think of it) singing it to me on the regular. He made puns on many kids' names, but I got the aria. Thanks a lot!
Of course, none of my many music teachers (+ others) over the years can compete with Moto Boy's rendition. His new EP of classically-inspired works ("For Martha") is just that: inspired. In the long run, I rather listen to his original torch songs, but since my wife has had this on steady repeat ever since it showed up a week ago, I'm happy to listen again and again. Despite the annoyance this piece has played in my life, it's strongly recommended.
