I'm not a fan of opera, but I have always been aware of Joan, and I'm amazed at the lack of coverage for her.
R.I.P. Dame Joan Sutherland. |

Never heard of her but that song was on a Candy commercial before so I guess I have heard of her I just didn't know who it was.
Great song btw |

A very sad day indeed.
In my opinion Sutherland was the greatest recorded soprano of the last century. |

What a legend she was. One of my favourite performances by anyone is I Know that My Redeemer Liveth sung by Joan. Not on YouTube so I can't link to it.

It's hard to explain just how good her voice was in comparison to other sopranos, it had a unique quality to it. It was so rich.
When I used to have singing lessons I used to dream that i would be recognised as the next Joan Sutherland. Never happened mind, I found nightclubs, alcohol and fags. |

One of the last great prima donna's of the opera world, a true legend.
RIP Dame Joan, your legacy will live forever! |

R.I.P. Dame Joan Sutherland. Pavarotti was good, but over his long partnership with Joan Sutherland he was the junior partner. La Stupenda is a legend and now that she has passed he reputation should grow even stronger and she should be rightfully crowned the best soprano of the recording age (Maria Callas ... bah!!!!) |
