I Heard It On 'South Park'

I occasionally watch the boorish cartoon series South Park... I'm not proud of it, but this time I actually got something out of it!


Our local UPN affiliate started running South Park reruns a few weeks ago. One night I found myself watching an episode called "Quituplets 2000." The title has absolutely nothing to do with music, but contained in the episode was little Kenny (a character that dies in every episode) studying how to "Sing Like Bocelli." In the process he taught himself how to sing the song "Con Te Partiro." Kenny's poor rendition of the song was replayed over and over again throughout the episode, but strangely the song stuck in my head enough to go to iTunes and listen to the real music (as sung by Bocelli of course). I liked it so much I bought the track. A cartoon can't do it justice. Check out Bocelli's Lyrics Page on ABMUSICA for more information about the song.
