That unfortunate photo looks like a white supremacist mob about to storm the capitol.
Some real life ultras furor would do much better than this fake Christian, happy pippy, loveyouall kitsch. (It is funny when the verse “l’amour infini” is matched with the panorama of Allianz Arena after the camera floating over fields, mountains, the city etc. It s like getting down to business.)
Enough with bed guarding and posting cheeky illness announcements on social media. The tenor is back on the track for the Xmas concert.
That is absolutely lovely. Kaufmann actually “performed” the Champions League anthem prior to the 2012 final in Munich when Bayern played Chelsea (I literally only just arrived in time to hear it due to horrific problems on the U-bahn) but it was subsequently revealed he was only miming due to a throat problem!
