There’s a Best Buy commercial depicting two guys watching football on a large-screen television. The clarity of the picture so overwhelms them that one guy actually passes out. Anyway, the commercial’s background music is a woman singing something that sounds like opera. Can anyone tell me what song it is? I’d also be interested in who’s singing, but that’s a lot to ask for. Thanks!
