They're very much a 'my first opera' type of group. It's just endless covers and predictable performances. Once you've heard one song you need not listen to another since you'll have the full grasp of what they are about.

I prefer my opera sung by real opera singers. However... they don't suck.

They sing opera beautifully, but they couldn't sing a whole opera. They're classical pop singers in effect, and only do the popular bits, like Katherine Jenkins and Russell Watson. Popera singers, if you like. Did you know that Il Divo was put together by Simon Cowell? Kind of says it all...

Wow. Some of the comments here. They might not be your cup of tea, but bland and dull?

They're extremely talented. My dad loves them. They're the best in what they do and their success goes hand in hand with that

It's not even my type of music. I wouldn't go out my way to listen to them but their talent is undeniable.

Opera beats technicality when it comes to just singing or shouting out a song like most these days.

Quite offensive to say opera is for morons. Brordan your horizon.

The comment was that Il Divo is opera for morons, not that opera is for morons in general
