There’s a battery commercial that juxtaposes a young girl’s vocal recital with washed-up rockers Bon Jovi doing a concert. The punchline is that the battery the young girl relies on for her concert mic is the same that Bon Jovi relies on for their vocal mic.
What’s the song the little girl is singing? It has an operatic sound to it, and sounds like she’s singing “glory hole, glory hole.”
A search turned up cites that say this was a spiritual that Dvorak borrowed. However, on my Paul Robeson CD, it’s credited to Dvorak. None of that’s authoritative, of course.
Disclaimer: I have never seen the commercial, and I have no idea what the correct answer is.
The first thing that comes to mind upon hearing it sounds like “glory hole” is “gloria.” Could that be it? It’s a pretty common thing to sing… (I can hear Jason Robert Brown’s “Christmas Lullaby” in my head now.)
