Pavarotti Estate Slags Off Trump For Improper Use of Music

The family of the late Luciano Pavarotti are the latest in a long line music people wanting Donald Trump to stop associating himself with their music.

The Pavarotti family are horrified that Trump has used the opera star’s ‘Nessun Dorma’ in his campaign.

According to the Associated Press, Nicoletta Pavarotti, the widow of Luciano Pavarotti told Italian newspaper Gazzetta di Modena that Trumps’s “values of brotherhood and solidarity” … “are incompatible with the world vision” he proposes.

This week the estate of George Harrison had similar concerns over Trump using ‘Here Comes The Sun’ but said he used George’s ‘Beware of Darkness’ they probably wouldn’t object.

I’m sure no-one would complain if Trump chose Denis Leary’s ‘Asshole’ as his theme song. There must be plenty of Ted Nugent and Rose Tattoo anthems Trump could confidently use as well.
