I respect it more than I love it. “Messiah, Part One: Then shall the eyes of the blind be open'd (counter-tenor)” is undeniable though.

Overhyped? Maybe. Did I still cry at “Messiah, Part One: Then shall the eyes of the blind be open'd (counter-tenor)”? Also maybe.

Not every song lands, but when it does it LANDS. “Messiah, Part One: Then shall the eyes of the blind be open'd (counter-tenor)” is the keeper.
