Go to sleep little baby, go to sleep little baby, you & me & the devil makes three...come lay your bones of the alabaster stones and be my ever-lovin' baby...

That was my son's lullaby! He's 3 now and tells me to be quiet now when I sing to him.
I'm fairly lay as well, and I enjoyed it. I'm told operas aren't traditionally full of rousing action, but that's not the point. Think of it as a concert with interesting blocking choices, maybe?
I asked my ex's mum about opera a while ago and she said that its a lot like a Fellini film. I love Fellini, so ever since then its held a mysterious attraction...
