I think smofbabe sent that link a while ago, and that must have been when I saw it. They actually changed the lyrics, of course, but doesn't it scan well?

I've seen these things done with pop music lyrics, but this... this is fantastic. *steals and posts on own journal*

Nah, yours is much better than the changed-lyrics-advert. I've sung Carmina Burana, broadcast live from The Natural History Museum at Exposition Park, and it's an amazing piece to perform - the energy within a sizable choir and orchestra is extraordinary. {big grin}
