Italian Opera Question

[eNtRopY]

This is going to be a difficult question for people to answer. I'm looking for the name of an Italian-opera-esque song. It is commonly used for commercials when advertisers want to express the idea of paradise in a comical way. Basically it consists of two female voices harmonizing. There really aren't any words... just many ahh-ahh-ahhs. Could somebody give me some names of songs that might fit this description?

The Bell Song from the same opera is a different piece.

Yes, that's it... the Flower Duet! Thanks, you kids are awesome!

Now, can someone recommend a good CD to buy that has this song recorded... maybe by a famous singer?

Thanks.

Rod stewart wails at the top of his voice to songs that he cant sing

i think its a cd. it shoud be. it would be funny. especially if every copy bought took 5 minutes of rod stewarts life.

I'm sure Guns N' Roses did a cover of it or maybe it was Metallica but whoever it was definetly worth looking out for was a very good version.

No, I think it was actually another Michael Bolton original.
