who sings voi che sapete in the marriage of figaro
The Marriage of Figaro Cherubino arrives, sent in by Figaro and eager to co-operate. Susanna urges him to sing the song he wrote for the Countess (aria: "Voi che sapete che cosa è amor" – "You ladies who know what love is, is it what I'm suffering from?"). After the song, the Countess, seeing Cherubino's military commission, notices that the Count was in such a hurry that he forgot to seal it with his signet ring (which would be necessary to make it an official document).
Wishin' and Hopin' Ani DiFranco's rendition of this song recorded in 1995, was featured over the opening credits of the film, My Best Friend's Wedding.[citation needed] That film, along with the Austin Powers films, is suggested to have led to the renewed popularity of the Bacharach-David catalog.[5]
