A song is a single (and often standalone) work of music intended to be sung by the human voice with distinct and fixed pitches and patterns using sound and silence and a variety of forms that often include the repetition of sections. Written words created specifically for music or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs in a simple style that are learned informally are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers for concert performances. Songs are performed live and recorded. Songs may also appear in plays, musical theatre, stage shows of any form, and within operas.
Plácido Domingo has made hundreds of opera performances, music albums, and concert recordings throughout his career as an operatic tenor. From his first operatic leading role as Alfredo in La traviata in 1961, his major debuts continued in swift succession: Tosca at the Hamburg State Opera and Don Carlos at the Vienna State Opera in 1967; Adriana Lecouvreur at the Metropolitan Opera, Turandot in Verona Arena and La bohème in San Francisco in 1969; La Gioconda in 1970; Tosca in Royal Opera House, Covent Garden in 1971; La bohème at the Bavarian State Opera in 1972; Il trovatore at the Paris Opéra in 1973 and Don Carlo at the Salzburg Festival in 1975,Parsifal in 1992 at the Bayreuth Festival; and the list continues until today; the same role is often recorded more than once.
Other than full-length opera performance recordings, Domingo has also made many music albums, recording opera arias, live opera performances and concerts, and crossover songs in solo and duet. His albums have simultaneously appeared on Billboard charts of best-selling classical and crossover recordings; contributing to many gold and platinum records and nine Grammy awards.

Guests on the album include Katherine Jenkins singing "Come What May", Josh Groban in "Sous le ciel de Paris", Susan Boyle, and Harry Connick Jr. in "Time After Time" as well as a duet with his son Plácido Domingo Jr. The orchestra is conducted by Eugene Kohn.

Genres: Documentary,Sometimes when I'm awful low
I don't think about the blue sky
Just wanna see the magic in her eyes
And it shows me the same afterglow
Why don't you think of something new
And make a day with Ophelia
Boy, you're beginning to see the dark
And it shows you the same afterglow
She ain't the kind
That you'll easily forget
Boy, you're husseling roses
Down the avenue of death
And you don't want
You don't want to lose her yet
(Oo-oo-oo-oooh
Oo-oo-oo-oooh
Oo-oo-oo-oooh)
She ain't the kind
That you'll easily forget
Boy, you're husseling roses
Down the avenue of death
And you don't want
You don't want to lose her yet
You're studying the dust
You're making (?)
You lost you mind from show to show
'Cause you couldn't find the same afterglow
So love has gone wrong
And the good moments were through
Don't know where I wanna go, I just wanna go
And I'm hoping to find the same afterglow
(Oo-oo-oo-oooh
Oo-oo-oo-oooh)
And I couldn't find the same afterglow
