When I read the first three words I hoped he was going here: "I don't like opera and I don't like ballet And new wave french movies, they just drive me away I guess I'm just dumb, 'cause I know that I ain't smart But deep down inside, I got a rock 'n' roll heart" Lou Reed, Rock n' Roll Heart I don't know if Lou doesn't like opera for the same reason, and I don't know if Steyn has a Rock n' Roll heart, (based on his song of the week selection I suspect not), but there ya go.
