Babatunde: *sips tea* Yeah, I told you this doesn't end well. You thought I was playin'. Me as someone who has Carmen as one of his favorite operas: *loses it* 🤣🤣🤣
Carmen was my very first operatic love. I've lost count on how many times I've seen it and listened to it. Yet you made me discover new things about it, particularly the ending.
Yay! These are so good! I sang Carmen as a kid before the days of the internet with my choir and had no idea what was going on the entire time. Please keep making these. So fun and so great at decoding opera in a super entertaining way. Thanks for your hard work ❤️
Love this 💕 in a few days. I’m going to my first opera. Carmen streams in our cinema. This gives enough information to enjoy en understand the opera. Thanks 🙏🏻
Nice. Thank you for explaining. I´ve seen Carmen as a child (my granny was taking me to theatre all the time), but I couldn´t remember the story. Now I found the whole opera online and I´m about to watch it and watching your video really helps, thank you. ;)
Just saw this in Sweden and couldn’t fully understand as the subs were in Swedish lol. Also this rendition had Don Jose throw Carmen over the side of the building. The gasps oml 😂. Thank you for explaining
We loved it! We are seeing Carmen tonight (first opera for the kiddos) and we were nervous because it's so long! But now we are excited! Also, you could do a one-man show of Carmen! In 30 minutes or so!
Great job with breaking down the opera and the tea flips! What is the story behind the opera Pagliacci? I’d love to hear you sing a little of it during the breakdown.
That was Awesome!! Very funny. But if I was a brit I would be devasted over the spilled tea.. 😂 It was really funny though. Keep up the great work. Hope to see more of those summaries! Thanks! 🙂 👍
I like your version, but hear me out on this one... what if... Escamillo feels that Carmen is in danger, and he **rides** the bull to intercept Don Jose, and then he is all "You wanna fight? Fight me!" but he is riding a bull! so he is looking down on Don Jose making him look like a lesser man and the coward he really is!
I love, love, love your Syn-opera-sis’! Do Tosca or Madame Butterfly next!
Oof... I mean, they're definitely on the list, but oof...
@@HipHoperaGuy You're not wrong...

I love these videos! Thank you for breaking it down.

THIS is priceless!!Thank you sooooooo much! Love this!
Request for Carmina Burana. O Fortuna is so famous but the context within Carmina Burana would be awesome.
Ooh! I'll add it to the list
To quote America's favorite son, Bugs Bunny: "Well, what did you expect in an opera? A happy ending?"
🍵 Here's to more Syn-opera-sis videos!
One of our great minds, indeed.
I love your summary, thanks for sharing and I hope you do more!

THIS IS AMAZIIIIING!!!!!! I love your syn-opera-sis 💖💖💖

loved this! thank you so much!!!
This is indeed fun.
Marie Stanley, you're the best!
@@HipHoperaGuy Young sir ; please do this for Tosca !!
You got it
I have been trying to get you to do a other break down for like 3 years. Thank You !!!
🤣🫶 so sweet!!
That was amazing
Carmen is one of my favorites. Just saw the MET live stream.
Thank you I'm planning on going to the opera and needed a summary 💯✨
I hope it helped

Best synopsis of my favourite opera!😍🤣
I LIKE YOUR VERSION MUCH BETTER!!!!!
It was fun! 🌹💃🏾
IMO: Carmen is the bull that Jose has been fighting all opera long. When he kills Carmen, the crowd is cheering because Jose has killed his bull.
PLEASE do Madam Bufferfly

1:53 FOLDED
Brilliant!
Man u are the goat
Not me still waiting for an album version of the Bullfighter song...lol
Would love to see you react to Monet exchange’s opera performance on ru Paul
Can you do Macbeth?
Also: NEVER just tell a regular story 😂
I like your version, but hear me out on this one... what if...

I can't tell you how much more I enjoyed your version! Someone needs to make Carmen II: Escamillo's Revenge
Sadly, another piece that's a product of its time and therefore, reinforces the negative, negative stereotypes surrounding Romani people.
