Lyrics: Alan Jay Lerner Music: Frederick Loewe I Could Have Danced All Night from My Fair Lady Soprano: Kiri Te Kanawa Wellington Concert New Zealand Symphony Orchestra Conducted by John Hophins
She sings soooooo unbelievably wonderfully and her voice is so warm, rich and beautiful and she is so gracious and sweet and charming that I aways forgive her that dresses :) Brava Kiri!!!
Bed, bed I couldn't go to bed My head's too light to try to set it down Sleep, sleep I couldn't sleep tonight Not for all the jewels in the crown I could have danced all night I could have danced all night And still have begged for more I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things I've never done before I'll never know what made it so exciting Why all at once my heart took flight I only know when he began to dance with me I could have danced, danced, danced all night It's after three now Don't you agree now? She ought to be in bed! I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night And still have begged for more I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things I've never done before I'll never know what made it so exciting Why all at once my heart took flight I only know when he began to dance with me I could have danced, danced, danced all night I understand, dear It's all been grand, dear But now it's time to sleep I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night And still have begged for more I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things I've never done before I'll never know what made it so exciting Why all at once my heart took flight I only know when he began to dance with me I could have danced, danced, danced all night

Kiri does such a wonderful job on the Great American Songbook. She really knows how to tone down her opera technique so as not to overpower the lighter material.
Your voice will continue to devolop into either a soprano voice or a mezzo-soprano voice for about another ten years. Give it about five years time and you'll know. :-)
jose. Kiri sings this more in the style of the musical. Angela sings a more "operatic" version. I must say I liked them both. Angela's version is dramatic and captivating. It is nice when the opera stars sing something which we all know well.
