One idea that I really liked in the original was that the heart is unable to speak directly, but must use the hesitant, trembling voice of the singer as a kind of translator or interpreter, sort of like Cyrano de Bergerac wooing Roxanne for Christian. This gets lost when the “inarticulacy” of the heart becomes the “speech” of the heart. You solved the sound problem at the expense of the clarity of the image.
