A few classical artists have tried to combine their genre with a more conventional "pop" sound, most of them fail to impress me when doing that. However, Klaus vocal style is still quite different from other classical vocalists and I think that what he manages to do with those records is something quite unique, the way he expresses himself. Not the typical "classical" singer.

But I see your point as well, I guess I've been listening too much to opera and similar music since I was very young - that's the only genre my whole family can share. :)

Yes I agree he definitely isn't just your typical classical vocalist, his voice is quite breath taking! I'm glad you understood my point! :wink: I think that's a large part of his appeal actually that he manages to put his voice to unexpected kinds of songs and make it sound right! 8-)

Dunno what that Conker game is, but you're right, there is a bit of Sarabande echoing in the Cold Song!

I love this, he was so freaky! But amazing, it felt so awkward because the audience just didn't know how to react! :o :-?

Oh well geniuses are never really appreciated/understood by the masses! :cry:

He was lightyears ahead of his time, f*ck even if he was alive now, he'd still be lightyears ahead of his time! :o I just love this guy! 8-)
I've been watching this performance again today! So amazing! 8-)

There's something about him that I don't like, but there's no denying he was great. It's shame he was one of the early victims of AIDS; who knows what he could have gone on to do?

Well it's a shame you don't like him. :-? Yes it's a shame, I really can't imagine what he'd be doing now, his way to good to be a part of the current trashy music scene.

How did come from Klaus Nomi to lesbian porn? :o
I love Nomi, discovered him in an MP3 Community in livejournal and fell in love. I should really buy his albums at some point.

^ No idea. :P

YOU DON'T NOMI Own Me <- I heard the original version (I suppose) of this song in some of the latest episodes of "American Horror Story". It's good, with a very 60s sound, but Klaus made it even better!
