Absolutely flabbergasted

I like this song a lot but that's not why I'm absolutely flabbergasted

Besides the French I don't think anyone knows who this is so please, take a listen to this song and tell me what you think. In the second link you can see how this person looks like.



When I heard it in a store I imagined the singer a beautiful woman who would dance sexy in her clip lol

When I looked up the title I first thought it was a joke but now I think it's amazing!

Okay, let me rephrase this:

Does any of you think this is a lady?

I've never heard a guy sing with a voice sounding 100% like a woman!

And I'm not talking about the high falsetto of Prince, Mika or even the Beegees, I'm talking about really sounding like a woman.

I bet a lot of hormone swallowing transvestites are jealous about his ability.

Wow. You're right. This guy does sound very much like a woman. His voice is awesome, but he does sound like a woman.

His voice is known as Castrato which could be from two scenarios:

1. His larnyx did not transform after puberty and he kept the soprano childlike voice or

2.He was castrated to keep that childlike voice, preventing testosterone from developing in the male body.

The opera world in the 1700 and 1800s use to castrate boys so they could keep those beautiful soprano childlike voices. Women loved to hear men sing like a woman then and now. The most famous castrati singer was Farinelli (Carlo Broschi) who lived in the 1700s, a movie was made about him in 1994.
