I preferred the waltzes the week before. :)
And I like Brindisi. Here it's sung by Mr Golden Voice

Last week we learned (with apologies to, or curses at, Eric Idle) about
didactic songs. This week's theme will be the opposite; eat drink and be
merry. We'll start with the quintessential drinking song, the consequences of
which are sometimes the stuff of opera. Feel free to sing along.

Now for something more reality based, and stoic to boot.

And hopefully what we eat and drink will help keep us this way. One is
reminded of an American Bollywood. See if you can recognize who's at 1:56.

At this point we might need a break from all this vim and vigor. Let's take a
break with, oh no! More vim and vigor! And more drinking!

And finally, Verdi-following, sha na na live-for-today baby boomer meets Patti
Page for a reality check. Nice song.
