Yeah, it's true, Klaus really wanted to be an Opera singer (and he was, one of the best actually!) but he wanted to sing rock also, those were his influences, so he merged the two in some of the most unique versions ever done. Yet, this particular song is one of the most sublime performances in any genre across the board.. he brought opera to the rock, new wave and even punk worlds.. that's why his influence was so vast.. if you haven't seen it, you need to watch his performance of this song on youtube.. out of this world...!
