Maria Callas, Commendatore OMRI (Greek: Μαρία Κάλλας; December 2, 1923 – September 16, 1977), was a Greek-American soprano, and one of the most renowned and influential opera singers of the 20th century. Some critics praised her bel canto technique, wide-ranging voice and dramatic interpretations, while others found her voice displeasing and considered that a defective technique was responsible for her premature decline. Her repertoire ranged from classical opera seria to the bel canto operas of Donizetti, Bellini and Rossini and further, to the works of Verdi and Puccini; and, in her early career, to the music dramas of Wagner. The press dubbed her La Divina.
Born in New York City and raised by an overbearing mother, she received her musical education in Greece and established her career in Italy. Forced to deal with the exigencies of wartime poverty and with myopia that left her nearly blind onstage, she endured struggles and scandal over the course of her career. She turned herself from a heavy woman into a svelte and glamorous one after a mid-career weight loss, which might have contributed to her vocal decline and the premature end of her career. The press exulted in publicizing Callas's temperamental behavior, her supposed rivalry with Renata Tebaldi and her love affair with Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis. Although her dramatic life and personal tragedy have often overshadowed Callas the artist in the popular press, her artistic achievements were such that Leonard Bernstein called her "the Bible of opera" and her influence so enduring that, in 2006, Opera News wrote of her: "Nearly thirty years after her death, she's still the definition of the diva as artist—and still one of classical music's best-selling vocalists."

Okay-a Here I Go Again? Here I Go Again!
Here I Go Again, okay, whatever you say
You got it-ah-hm
Hooo-hooo-ooo
Ah that was beautiful who said that?
Saw you there, and your laughter seemed to fill the air
Ah baby
A scent light perfume from your lovely hair
I said that I, I, I do-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo adore
Um my heart said to me
Don't walk head on into misery
Hey with your eyes wide open can't you see?
A hurts in store just like before
Ooooh-ho but here I go again walking into love
Here I go again never thinking of
Danger that might exist
Disregarding all of this just for you
Wooo I ignore the detour sign
I wont stop until you're mine
I'm past the point of no return baby
You walk by and I said to me, myself and I-yi-I
Now weve got to give it one more try-I
I know somehow the time is ri-ight right now-ow
Oh-whoa-oh
Oh-whoa here I go again walkin in-in to-oo love
Here I go again walking into lo-ove
Here I go
Here I go
Here I go
