    Regarding the "language" controversy: I laughed as I realized that the diction is so bad I initially couldn't tell in which language they are singing. This is neither "Beethoven 9" nor "An Die Freude," but an arrangement of one of the greatest melodies ever written. The words don't matter. Beethoven would like this. It isn't his his symphony but is moving and beautiful in any language. As G B Shaw said,"The poetry that lies too deep for words does not lie too deep for music." That's what counts.
